Top 5 Essential Tools Every Home Should Have
Whether you are a hobbyist interested in some or the other craft or about to take on the home improvement project, you’ll sure need some basic tools to carry on the simple tasks. Moreover, if there’s no craft project or home decor project on your list then also something will happen once in a while- you might need to fix the burst pipe or the leaking tap- so better be prepared with your home tools sets. Here is the list of some basic tools that are essential for any household.
First of all you must get a toolbox that is about 20 inches long, 12 inches wide and 12 inches deep with a durable handle and a removable top tray with compartments for nails, screws, washers, picture hangers and so on. Now get the following basic tools.
- Hammer: From among the different varieties available, the appropriate one for basic tasks is the 16 ounce, straight claw hammer with a fiberglass handle. It will be heavy enough to drive a nail and light enough to handle without any problem.
- Screwdrivers: You need several sizes screwdrivers but thanks to the market that has a set which includes most of the sizes you’ll need. Select those having comfortable grips and quality material.
- Pliers: Get a slip joint or a groove joint plier for trivial tasks demanding a wider grip like plumbing issues, and a needle nose plier for smaller, tight jobs. If your budget allows, you may go for adjustable pliers whose jaws have a range of adjustments, letting them to grip anything from tiny nails or wires to large pipes.
- Utility Knife: Don’t run to the kitchen every time you need a knife, just include a utility knife in your home tool set that has a razor-sharp blade for cutting everything from drywall to cardboard.
- Wrench: You’ll need it for turning nuts and bolts. Get an 8-inch adjustable wrench which will be able to turn small- to medium-sized nuts and bolts.
While buying your basic home tool set don’t try to scrimp on quality otherwise you’ll get frustrated when they’ll need fixing instead of doing the jobs for which they had been bought. After you collect the basic home tools, you can gradually make specialized tool sets such as that of plumbing tools.
