If you're ready to make some much needed home repairs then one things for sure, you'll likely need some hand tools to get the job done. Many times having the right tools is a huge set back when it comes to getting started on a project in your home. So, to get you started, here's a run down of many of the basics that you'll need to get going. Whenever you're improving your home, safety should always be your paramount concern. So, first things first; you're going to want to have ear protection, goggles, and masks to get the ball rolling. Will you be remodeling or repairing wall or floors in your home for instance? You're obviously not going to get this done without some good strong tools. First off, if the walls are located in the basement you'll need a brush with stiff bristles, a wire brush, and a heavy-duty paintbrush or two. This is to help protect your walls. One of the better tool companies out there that have been around for quite sometime is Stanley Tools. Stanley's tools are a great choice because they're inexpensive while being a good strong tool. One thing to remember when it comes to tools is that the stronger the tool, the safer the tool. Now, let's say for example that you're working outside the home repairing grades about the foundation. You'll need a grading rake, hand tamp, line leveler, wheelbarrow, and a standard garden rake. Most if not all of these hand tools can be found in the Stanley collection. Many of the repairs inside your home, such as walls or ceilings you'll need tools like drills, screwdrivers, a good hammer, paintbrushes, scrapers, a glue gun, etc. Now other tools that you'll need for smaller things are utility knives, pliers, wallboard knives, tile pliers, stud finder, syringe, and a few other tools depending on the task. For many of these tools like quality utility knives for instance a great supplier of these tools is the manufacturer of Leatherman Tools. For years Leatherman has produced tools that make it simple and easy for the handyman to carry a bunch of tools, without carrying a bunch of tools. Does that sound crazy? Well the fact is that Leatherman combines many of the hand tools that you will use in one unit. For instance you may find a knife, a pair of pliers, both tips of screwdrivers, and even pruning tools all on one unit. This really comes in handy and many of us know the father who pulls out their Leatherman tools at a moments notice. As you start out you may not always have every tool that you'll need for every job, and that's fine. But having a few of the basic, and getting them as a quality tool such as through Stanley Tools or
