Are you a
Homeowner?Here are five crucial safety steps every DIYer should take.
Renovation dust can interfere with smoke and CO detectors. Cover them temporarily while you work, but don’t forget to uncover and test them once you’re done!
DIY wiring mistakes can lead to dangerous faults and fire risks. If you’re not a qualified electrician, always hire a professional for electrical work.
During renovations, it’s easy for tools and materials to block hallways and doorways. Always keep pathways clear so your home remains safe in case of an emergency.
If you’re making improvements, now is the perfect time to install interlinked smoke, heat, and CO alarms for better protection. Modern alarms provide enhanced coverage and peace of mind.
If you’re replacing doors or making structural changes, consider using fire-rated materials. These can slow the spread of flames in an emergency, giving you more time to react.
