Know exactly what in your home needs attention, and what can wait

A thorough risk assessment of your home, priced at R1,490. You get a written report and a quotation for the babyproofing. Then you decide if you want us to install or DIY it.

If you go ahead with any work over R5,000 within 30 days, the assessment fee comes off in full.

What A Risk Assessment Is

We look at what is actually in your home

A risk assessment is a walk through your home. We look at what is actually there: the layout, the furniture, the doors, the stairs, the way your family lives in the space.

Every home is different. That is exactly why a checklist off the internet is not the same thing as a proper assessment. Your house has its own gaps, its own widths, its own details. We look at those and tell you which ones matter most for a toddler moving through that space.

Babyproofing does not replace your supervision. It backs it up for the ordinary moments when attention is elsewhere. The phone rings, the kettle boils, the doorbell goes. That is what the gates and locks are for.

More Than A Report

From the report to the fix

Whether you want us to walk the home, fit the safety gates, or hand the whole job over to us, there is a way to work together that suits your family.

Safety Gate Rentals

Need a gate for a short season rather than forever. Rent a quality pressure-fit safety gate, professionally installed and removed, for as long as you need it.

Monthly, no big outlay

Gift Vouchers

A thoughtful present for a baby shower, a first birthday, or a family with a little one on the move. Choose any amount you like.

How It Works

From booking to the report in your inbox, here is exactly what happens and what you walk away with.

1

You book a time that suits you

We walk the home with you

Usually about an hour to ninety minutes, depending on the size of the house. You are welcome to walk with us and ask anything as we go.

3

You receive a written report and a quotation

Room by room, we set out what we found, why it matters and what we would recommend, together with a quotation for the fixes.

4

You decide

Take the quotation, take part of it, or do the work yourself. The report is yours either way.

What You Get

Everything in your hands

  • Room by room report.
  • A quotation with every item and every price shown.
  • Honest advice about what matters most and what can wait.
  • No obligation and no pressure to buy anything.
Pricing

Book the room by room risk assessment

R1,490

If you go ahead with any work over R5,000 within 30 days, the assessment fee comes off in full.

That means the assessment effectively costs nothing if you go ahead with the work. The price covers the whole home, not per room.

More Ways We Help

Gate rentals and gift vouchers

Safety Gate Rentals

Some homes only need a gate for a season. Maybe you are between houses, renting, or waiting for a renovation. Rather than buying a gate you will not need in a year, you can rent one from us.

  • Quality pressure-fit safety gates, fitted by us.
  • Set up at the stairs, a doorway, or wherever you need it.
  • Removed and made good when you are done.
  • No large upfront cost for something temporary.

  • Choose any amount you like.
  • Use it towards a risk assessment, gate rental, or installation.
  • Perfect for baby showers, first birthdays, and housewarmings.
  • Easy for group collections from friends or family.
