Having a few essentials in your toolbox can help you make some repairs yourself, saving you money. Try to avoid skimping on tools and invest in better brands, especially if you plan to use the tools for many years.
Cordless drill. You can use a multipurpose, battery-powered drill for a large number of tasks. Purchase a good selection of drill and driver bits so you have all types of tasks covered.
Tape measure. A retractable and lockable tape measure is the perfect tool for measuring just about anything. It’s best to have one that’s at least 25 feet long in case you need to measure a room’s square footage.
Adjustable crescent wrench. You can get away without a full set of wrenches with an adjustable crescent wrench. Adjust its jaws to fit nuts and bolts of varying sizes.
Hammer. It’s best to have two hammers, one lightweight and one heavyweight. The size of the hammer should correspond with the size of the nail.
