If you don't have a handyman in your family and don't have a clue where to begin when it comes to assembling a proper home-repair tool kit, there's good news. For $200 you can buy 90% of all the tools you'll ever need to repair and maintain your home. Here is a list of basic tools everyone should own: 1. Toolbox: $30A toolbox can save a lot of time on the job. Many people don't get one and their stuff ends up all over the place. 2. Hammer: $15Choose a model with a straight or "rip" claw, not a curved claw; they're much more useful. 3. Pry bar: $15A pry bar is incredibly handy. Every toolbox should have one of these. Youd be surprise how often you will use a pry bar. 4. Vise-grips: $10Also known as locking pliers, vise-grips are the pit bull in your toolbox.
5. Needle-nose pliers: $8Needle-nose pliers are particularly useful in electrical work where spaces can get tight.
