We are aware of the term ‘Construction’ in our daily lives. It is a process of building something, which is known as construction. It is key to all the developments and infrastructure we see around us. Construction workers are seen busily equipped with tools in hand, carrying out the instructions from their architects and project heads. Along with skills, they require a robust set of hand tools.

A list of tools used for different crafts such as bricklaying, masonry, carpentry, demolition, electrical works, insulation and plumbing is as follows:

Pencil:
The essential thing you need in hand is a pencil. It is quite a necessity to write down important notes and measurements. Go for the carpenter’s pencil from Wiltz Group. It is a 12-piece set that comes in an oval shape.

Utility Knife:
A utility knife is used for multiple purposes. It will come in handy when you need to cut drywall, sheet plastic, linoleum, boxes, roofing shingles, rope, and wallpaper. Always carry one in your toolbox utility knife, It saves time.

Tape Measure:
It is a valuable tool to carry with you when you are into general construction work, framing, and carpentry. Buy one that can be clipped to your toolbelt.

Spirit Level:
A spirit level is used to measure gravity, check if the level is correct, and achieve a perfectly straight line. They contain a liquid with an air bubble inside to run parallel to the tool’s body. The bubble floats to the higher side if the line is sloped, or else it will be in the middle of the vial. The spirit level of Wiltz comes with an aluminium frame.

Chalk Line:
This is also a marking tool like the spirit level. It is made with a chalky body and a long reel of string. You need to pull the string, snap it against the surface to draw a line and rewind it. It can mark for up to 30 to 40 feet and beyond.

Hammer:
A hammer is an essential hand tool, and there are many types for works like framing, masonry, finish carpentry, electrical and demo work. But it’s a claw hammer that’s usually used in construction work. It can be used for pulling out nails or for demolition work.

Construction contractors use a framing claw hammer. Remember to buy one with a fibre glass handle for better shock absorption than wooden handles. The claw hammer from Wiltz Group is perfect. There are 5 different other types of hammers available. Another one is the Brick Hammer, also known as Stonemason’s hammer. It has a flat nose, squarely shaped, with a flat pick or chisel. It helps to cut bricks, cinder blocks, or chip small stone pieces.

Wrenches:

A high-end adjustable wrench is recommended for comfort. Wilz’s Bent Nose Pipe Wrench is a handsome tool to have with you.

Screwdrivers:
A flat head screwdriver is a necessary tool. It is good to get a small set of screwdrivers of different sizes, especially if they have magnetic tips. You don’t want them to fall off when you are on a ladder.

Pliers:
Buy insulated pliers from Wiltz if you work with live wires or electrical equipment to protect you from shock. They are used for various purposes. They can cut wires, bend them, create crimp connections, and press and hold objects.
