When you own a home, you will be burdened with a lot of home improvement tasks from time to time. But don’t be afraid of those maintenance works. They are really easy and quite enjoyable when you treat them in the right way.
Before you fall into a trap of any of the like burdens, we will guide you to pick the right products to fix the suddenly appeared problems.
Let’s get started with the most commonly used tool, THE HAMMER!
- Claw Hammer
A claw hammer is a must for you to own if you want to have a safe and sound sleep at night. Every time you need to put a nail on the wall or remove one from it, you’ll find this tool helpful.
If you are not sure about what I’m talking about, here is the description of this tool-
The clawing hammer has two ends in its head, one being flat used for hammering a nail on the wall or something else and the other V-shaped end is useful for removing the unwanted nails from wall or wood.
When you pick one for your household storage, make sure it is made of stainless steel or some good quality iron. Picking a low-quality product can ruin the ultimate object of buying it.
- Screwdriver Set
“Screwdriver makes your storeroom complete” – says The Tooly author, James Stuart.
A good screwdriver set will help you to fix a lot of silly problems in your households without calling upon a professional. The screwdriver is good for fixing electric switches, bed screws and other screwing facilities.
When you buy a screwdriver set, make sure it is well made and have versatile screwing capabilities. The magnetized screwdrivers are good for smaller screwing works, so keep that in mind also.
- Cordless Drill
Drills are common and often used for making a hole in the surface of the wall or wood. You’ll find different types and shapes of drills in the market but a cordless drill is the most convenient for unprofessional home use.
These drills are battery powered means these have no risk of electric accident and thus safe for an unprofessional hand.
- Needle Nose Pliers
Pliers are savers and needle nose pliers are the easiest to use in the department. You’ll find the tool really useful for cutting or tightening any wires or other thin but hard material.
Buying a needle nose plier for your storerooms worths it.
- Tongue and Groove Pliers
This is another common type of plier which have a tongue-shaped end on it for which is named as ‘Tongue and groove plier’.
You’ll feel comfortable when you’ve one in your possession. These are really handy for adjusting different types of nuts and bolts.
- Wrench Set
Just like a screwdriver, a wrench set is also used for tightening the bolts and screws. But there is a key difference between these two tools.
When a screwdriver is used for tightening smaller screws, a wrench set is handy to tighten a bolt. A bolt works like a screw but is fixed in much broader materials and takes a lot more pressure than the screws.
- A knife Set
Tools for cutting and igniting the fire is the basic need for every household. You can’t live a day in your household without any one of these products assistance.
Pick a durable knife set which conveniently cuts anything. Consider getting a stainless steel knife set for long lasting sharpness.

There are a lot of types and sizes of the staple gun and you have to pick the right one for the household.
- Kitchen Scale
The kitchen scale is an important but most overlooked tool in a household. The scale helps you to cook the right amount of food every day and prevents food wastages.
The food we waste in a day can feed one-fourth of the total population of the world for a day. Such a huge number, right?
