You’ve waited nine months, read all the books and now you have this bundle of joy. You bring them home and you realize…“oh my gosh, my house has danger around every corner!”
Well, there is no need to fear, new or future parents. Part of having a certified remodeler handle your next renovation project is helping you think about future changes in your lifestyle.
Most homeowners know when they perform a renovation to look for areas of concern, like electrical outlets and stairs. But there are hidden dangers like hot water heaters and dish washers, where those small hands can get into trouble.
Newborns and toddlers are extremely curious about the world and want to learn everything about it. That is why they are often getting into things they shouldn’t. Their different perspective of the world (about a foot off the floor), gives them vision for places adults might not otherwise see.
At RIGGS, we know and recognize areas of concern and will make sure that it will not be a safety problem in the future. Because a new child changes the living arrangements, we often renovate custom playrooms for children, so that parents have peace of mind, while keeping a watchful eye.
Next time you are planning a renovation, consider consulting a certified remodeler with RIGGS before work begins. We can help you set a budget and stick to it, so that you can still afford diapers!
