Tape Measure – From making sure furniture will fit in a room to measuring windows for blinds, this is one of the most important tools you’ll ever need in your toolbox. A must-have!

Adjustable spanner – More versatile than fixed spanner sizes, you’ll need one to tighten nuts & bolts & loosen plumbing fixtures among other things.

Hacksaw – This piece of equipment cuts through wood, metal and plastic pipes. Look for the kind with replaceable blades!

Torch – This may seem like a simple suggestion but it’s very important to have a dedicated LED light or headlamp to make sure you’re working correctly in low or no light.

Electric Drill – Not only does this drill holes & drives screws, but with the necessary accessories, they sand & grind materials, & stirs paints.
