Tool Sets for New Homeowners

by Morger » Sun Dec 15, 2024 11:07 am

I’ve just bought my first house and realized I have zero tools for repairs or maintenance. I’m overwhelmed with all the options out there. What’s the best starter tool kit for basic household needs like hanging shelves, fixing leaky faucets, or assembling furniture? Should I focus on quality or just grab something affordable for now?

Congrats on the new house! For basics, you’ll need a versatile set with essentials like pliers, a hammer, screwdrivers, and an adjustable wrench. Husky offers a 65-piece homeowner’s tool set that’s great for beginners—check it out on Husky Tools website. It has everything you need for small repairs, and the tools are durable enough to last as you expand your collection. I’d recommend investing in quality from the start; cheaper tools often break or don’t work as well. Husky tools strike a nice balance—they’re reliable without being overpriced. Don’t forget a small tool chest or bag for organization; Husky’s tool organizers are compact and sturdy. Over time, you’ll add specific tools for your projects, but this starter kit will cover 90% of what you’ll need right now.

Congratulations on your first home! Starting with tools, it’s best to focus on a basic yet versatile kit that covers essentials like a hammer, screwdrivers, an adjustable wrench, a utility knife, and a measuring tape. Affordable kits can be a great starting point, and you can upgrade as your needs become clearer. Quality matters if you want tools to last, but for now, prioritize getting a functional set within your budget.

On the decor side, consider personalized wallpaper. They’re a fantastic way to add character to your space without needing special tools. Peel-and-stick options are especially user-friendly, allowing you to transform rooms quickly and easily while enjoying a custom look tailored to your style.
