Top Tools for Every Household
11/10/2024

It’s rare to find a household without at least one tool, and that’s perfectly understandable. You never know when you might need one, and with the right tools, you can handle many tasks on your own with ease.

So, whether you're handy with DIY projects or not, it's always a good idea to have a basic tool like a screwdriver or a pair of pliers on hand, just in case.

If you haven’t stocked up on tools yet, check out our latest blog post. Our tips will help you choose exactly what you need to have in your home.

Ladder

One of the first items you’ll need is a ladder. Whether you’re tackling a repair, hanging curtains, or simply organizing a closet, a ladder is indispensable and incredibly convenient.

You can choose a ladder that fits your needs — from height, color, and material to its overall design. It’s also a good idea to ensure that it has a non-slip platform for added safety. Alternatively, you can buy special adhesive strips that can be easily applied to prevent slipping.

Screwdriver

Another popular and versatile tool that’s often used is the screwdriver. Available in various sizes and types, screwdrivers make it easy to remove or fasten screws when assembling or disassembling items or appliances.

Today, the variety of screwdrivers is vast. You can even purchase special kits that come with a range of different screwdrivers all in one set.

Also worth mentioning are tester screwdrivers, which can be used to check electrical circuits, ensuring safety when needed.


Wrench

Wrenches are essential for tightening or loosening nuts and bolts. Like screwdrivers, wrenches come in different shapes, sizes, and types, allowing you to choose the one best suited for the task.

Recently, universal, adjustable, and combination wrenches made from steel have become quite popular. These versatile tools can handle several different sizes in one. There are also wrench sets available, but these are typically designed for professionals rather than casual home use.

Pliers

Multi-purpose pliers are a must-have tool for many household tasks. They are perfect for pulling nails, gripping metal objects, cutting wires, or bending them into the desired shape, making them especially useful for electrical or plumbing work.
Standard pliers are the most commonly used, but you can also find sets of three, which are even more practical and functional.


Hammer

A hammer is another tool you’re likely to need at some point, even if it’s just a small one. That’s why it’s a must-have item on the essentials list.

You can choose a hammer based on your needs. There are rubber, metal, and combination hammers, which often include a claw for pulling nails as well.

Other Handy Tools

Don't forget about the small but useful tools. Measuring tapes and rulers, for example, are often needed, along with nails, screws, anchors, adhesive tapes, and insulation tapes for basic repairs. It’s also a good idea to have a plumbing plunger on hand, which can quickly clear blocked pipes in no time.

Tool Kits

We’ve talked about individual tools, but there are also multifunctional tool kits available. These sets typically include screwdrivers, pliers, hammers, and other essential items, making them a convenient and efficient option.

And lastly, on October 12th and 13th, we’re hosting a tool festival at the "Domino" hypermarket. This means you can enjoy special discounts of up to 40% on tools in our stores. Our knowledgeable staff will also be there to provide expert advice and help you choose the most useful tools for your needs.
