Safety Concerns: From slippery floors to improperly ventilated areas, safety hazards can be a concern. We prioritize safety, ensuring all designs adhere to standards and best practices.

Maintenance Challenges: Some materials and designs can be high-maintenance, leading to frequent upkeep needs. We choose materials that are durable, easy to clean, and stand the test of time.
