Choosing Hand Tools That Last

For daily trade use, a forged one piece tool, such as an Estwing hammer, will outlast a cheaper multi part alternative. For occasional or DIY use, a mid range brand such as Faithfull offers good value without the trade price tag. If you work in wet trades such as plastering or bricklaying, stick to specialist brands like Refina or Marshalltown rather than general hand tool ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between trade grade and DIY hand tools?

Trade grade tools, such as Knipex or Bahco, are built for daily heavy use and typically carry a longer warranty. DIY grade tools are lighter duty and better suited to occasional home use.

Do you stock specialist plastering and bricklaying hand tools?

Yes, we stock Refina, Ragni, Marshalltown and Nela, four of the most sought after wet trade brands in Ireland.

Can I collect hand tools in the store instead of waiting for delivery?

Yes, click and collect is available from our Kerry location.

Are Knipex pliers worth the higher price compared to standard pliers?

Knipex pliers are built from hardened tool steel and designed for daily professional use, most trades find the extra durability and grip worth the investment over a working life of tools.

What hand tools does a plasterer need starting out?

A typical starter kit includes a skimming trowel, a hawk, a devil float, a speed skim and a bucket trowel, brands such as Refina and Marshalltown are commonly recommended for beginners.

Do you stock one piece forged hammers?

Yes, we stock Estwing hammers, which are forged from a single piece of steel for maximum durability and shock absorption.
