What basic tools should I keep around the house?


assistant
Keeping tools around the house to make simple fixes is super important as a homeowner and a renter. Furthermore, being self sufficient and not relying on others to do basic work is very empowering. Some basic tools that everyone should keep around the house are a  screwdriver with various different heads (eg. phillips, flat head, allen wrench, etc), needle nose pliers, channel lock pliers, slip joint pliers an electric drill, drill bit set, and a hammer. You can accomplish a lot of small fixes and have on hand when that emergency situation arises.
