A. Ideally, you should childproof your home before your baby becomes mobile. Don't forget that mobility includes rolling, scooting, crawling, or cruising--not just walking.

A. Most jobs can be completed in one day, depending on the size of your home and the amount of childproofing you wish to do.

A. Two main factors determine the cost of childproofing a home: 1) the size of your home; 2) the amount of childproofing you desire. Most jobs average between $300 to $1500 which includes products and installation. After your home safety evaluation, you will be given a detailed written estimate--this will give you the best idea of the cost of childproofing your home. We will certainly work within your budget to help you create a safe environment for your baby to live, grow, explore, and learn.

A. At Palmetto Childproofing Inc, we are committed to customer service as well as child safety. Because we use high quality products and install them to the manufacturer's specifications, we are able to guarantee our work. If you purchased a product from us that we installed, and it isn't working properly, we will repair or replace it at no charge provided that it has been used in the manner for which it was designed.

A. The cost of having your home evaluated by an experienced child safety expert is $45. We will identify potential hazards to your baby or toddler, provide safety solutions, recommend the most effective products, and provide you with a personalized plan to childproof your home.

A. Most of our clients prefer to leave the installation to a professional to save time, avoid frustration, and to have the peace of mind that all work is done correctly. However, some parents with the time, proper tools, and skills may choose to babyproof their homes themselves. Our affordable home safety consultation will assist you in this endeavor by pointing out the hazards, providing you with solutions, recommending the most effective products, and giving you a plan for making your home safe.

A. Yes, just remember that child safety products are only effective when properly installed and our guarantee only applies to products installed by our company.
