Basic Tools for Home Repairs

Article Category: Home Management

Author Name: Kellie

Here are some of the basic yet very important tools for home repairs. You'll need this in your home since you'll never know when they might come in handy.

The first is the hammer. The suggested hammer is the ripping/framing hammer. This type of hammer has a claw that is straight. Invest in a hammer that is of top quality since it will be a good tool for many years to come. You'll also need to keep a variety of nails in a container, since these go with the hammer like bread and butter.

The next important tool is the hand saw. You'll need it badly when you have to cut of large pieces of material, particularly wood.

A screw driver set is essential in this modern world, and that's these are important tools for home repairs. Invest in good quality screw drivers because the cheap ones tend to rust easily, and the edges dull quickly, disabling you from turning screws as they tend to slip.

A good pair of Linesman Pliers is another tool that you'll definitely find very much handy. They're good for a multitude of things from cutting and crimping metal to electrical wiring. The ideal type would be the 8 or 9 inch ones. A decent pair of channel lock pliers is another tool that is incredibly useful for big nuts. They're also lengthy, so you get plenty of leverage without extreme effort.

Another one of the basic tools for home repairs is the pipe wrench. It's very useful for turning pipes or other types of metal things that need to be loosened or tightened. Some simple open-end wrenches of different sizes are also just as important. An substitute to the open-end wrench is the crescent or the adjustable wrench. The downside of this is that sometimes it doesn't provide a tight grip when it comes to the tighter nuts.

The pry bar (or the crow bar) is extremely useful for things that need to be pried open or are in a jam. They're also pretty useful for removing stubborn nails. You'll really need this in your home.

A sanding block is great for smoothening out all types of surfaces, so it's recommended that you have one in store. A wood chisel is another great tool, because they're great with wood.

You'll also need adhesives, besides the tools for home repairs, in order for you to fix certain damages at home. You can purchase a general-purpose adhesive for stick paper and cardboard, leather, wood, and certain types of plastic. If you have plenty of wooden furniture, it is best to invest in a bottle of PVA woodworking adhesive or "white glue." You can also buy some mastics and repair tapes so that you will have those at hand in case the situation arises. Mastics are permanently flexible adhesive fillers that you can use to seal joints. Repair tapes are great as first aid repairs for leaky glazing bars and cracked glass.
