My process is to pack up one or more bags of tools, and then make several trips back home to get the stuff I need for a job. In fact, I'm so committed to this method that I often use it whenever I'm working on something inside my own house. I'm always appalled at the number of tools I've brought in from the garage for any job which didn't go smoothly, which is usually a plumbing job.

I'm always envious of anyone who can run a 2 ton van with everything. Like you, I reload for the day because the van WILL be raided one day. I use plastic "tea crates" to organise stuff into groups. Clear plastic boxes in cheap shelves for stuff like PPE, sockets, back boxes, light fittings etc (I'm a sparks). A second hand vacuum cleaner. Most used kit is cheap plastic folding hop up stool. Light weight and acts as carry box when up-side-down. Great vid- thank you.

Nice video! Fun to see it's not mandatory to have a fancy packout type of system. I too do buy some quite inexpensive tool boxes and reorganize tools and supplies from time to time. As you also do, I find it very convenient to have dedicated boxes of tools and supplies for a specific purpose like drilling and fixing, nailing and glueing and so on. And of course one or two large boxes or bags with a selection of useful tools. Very nice to see it doesn't have to be super fancy, as long as it can be transported in a vehicle and gets you the job done!

Hi Andy, I nearly have the same set up as you. I never keep tools in the van anymore. I did once when I was doing a job at the top of the Canary Wharf Tower. My workmate never turned up and I was using the train, leaving some tools on the van that I couldn't carry. When I come back my van was one of three that disappeared never to be seen again with everything that I left on it that day . So I don't do that anymore. I am going to set up a paint bag like you as my bits an pieces are all over the place. That is a deffo.enjoyed the video very much, as we are trying to score the same goal. I thought I would use that analogy this week. Thanks Andy

I just want to say that I really like your videos and they have been very informative. This one has given me an idea of how much I will have to bring or get in order to do some jobs that I seem to be getting more and more calls for after helping out others with things. I don't have all the kit I use to have in the US since I moved to the UK, so this gives me some idea of what all I still need to get and add to my tool box.

I bought Hilti TE10 drill around 1985 and its is still going and in perfect condition. At the time my Joinery buddies and some old timers told me I was insane spending that sort of money of a masonry drill, but I held my ground and said to them that this drill would probably see me out whilst they would probably buy 4 or 5 Black and Decker drills over the course of time. I have been proven right, you get what you pay for : Hilti= quality and trustworthy products.

You have some workable ideas, I especially like your Trouble Shooter Bag. I have an old Makita Hammer Drill. It doesn't have the selector on the side like yours. Because I think mine might be older. It's Makita Blue with a Blue Matal Case. You don't see those any longer. Got another Makita Drill also has a metal case. They are all like new, I take good care of my tools, they last a very long time. I wasted another brand name hammer drill a few years ago. It went up in smoke and it was only two years old. I took it to the store whose equipment it was, their particular brand. And they replaced the drill no charge. In fact they didn't make mine any longer and they ended up giving me an upgraded model. Still have that, just used it yesterday. It's holding up really good. Where we differ, I don't use Metric, I use Imperial. In the stores, here in Canada, building materials, wood, drywall, everything really is shown in Imperial. Yeah I have some Metric tools like Nut Drivers and Wrenches. I even have sets of Metric Drill Bits. But I almost never use them. I have about 30 tape measures. Mostly all Imperial a few also have Metric as well. When I run into situations where something like Torx or Metric fasteners are used. I will do what is necessary to switch them over to something like Robertson 1/4 x 20, that I can find everywhere. I switched out base mounting screws on a DeWalt Router. Drilled out the holes, retapped the holes for the 1/4 x 20 fasteners. Been using that successfully with no further problems for about 15 years. All because the existing Metric Screws weren't long enough to fasten my new router base to the router and no one had longer screws. Not Fastenal or Brafasco. I had a similar problem as it seems you do with parts carriers. Where items in one partition moved over into another bin. You end up looking for that item and you may miss it, thinking you don't have it. I got foam of different thicknesses that I cut to size and fit on the top of the partitions to keep the contents in. In some cases you can get the real thin stuff and cover all the different pigeon holes helping to keep the contents in there. I have even used Kleenex and paper towels before I got some foam. If you get the whitish colored foam. You can write on it telling you what's in that section.

I like to revisit a lot of your vids as I don’t always absorb those tasty bite size nuggets on the first viewing . So thank you for doing this. I use the Makita and Festool Systainer system as I pack most things into my Golf hatchback without harming either tools or the interior of my car. I tend to wait for deals on the Makita Makpac Systainer and over the years have about 15 in all. This is not a boast but just saying this is how I organise my stuff as there is a home for everything and I’m confident things are where they should be which saves a lot of time. My real comment is that I have the Makita drill set which came with an additional tray for all my other drill bits and it’s great. It’s way too expensive at the moment as I only paid £35 for the complete kit. Just a thought 😎

Facebook marketplace, tradie sites then bring them to your website direct and offer them a “discount” for doing so. Do this so you don’t have to pay 3rd party fees on hosting sites ect. Start sending out leaflets in your area and to save cash also add a “percentage off” on the leaflets when they return the leaflet back on the day of a quotation. Good for the planet and it saves you money. Also how’s it going for you? I’m also going to start a handyman business, did you register as a sole trader? Do you take payment on completion or before? And do I need to draft up a contract before hand? I’m doing it cash in hand for the minuite because I’m not paying processor fees. Also how do you go about it if the costumer refuses to pay after job completion? Please reply mate it would help me a lot thank you Also I forgot to add instead of paying for a website you can just create a landing page for free with a free domain name no need to pump money into a business that’s just starting out

Normally get asked if I can come over and sort out a few problems. Only to arrive and they have changed their mind or the priority for the day and now I don't have the tools for the job they want doing. So some customers I end up having to take everything just incase. But no job is a simple turn up and fit / fix in my world unless I have been out and planned it first. Your "go to" kit is definitely a lot smaller than mine.

Very interesting. I'm a contractor for 2 residential property managers in Texas. 600 rent houses. I do mobile repairs with a gull winged service truck. I do 3-5 rent house repairs every day. You desperately need a Multi-tool, a 8000 series Dremel . I use them just about every day. Overall, it looks like you are about 5 years behind the curve on my tools and techniques. I prioritize in this order: 1) my 2 body pouches (one Lux Headlamp and extra rechargeable batteries), & much more. 2) My regular pant belt has a folding razor knife, and a small Stanley measuring tape, 3) My carry-in bag is special made, it has 20 vertical pockets so all tools stand on end for easy access. 4) My Service truck as a is a dream. There is no handyman job I can't do out of it. Power tools, etc. 5) My shop. I repair and refurbish washers, dryers, & kitchen ranges and sell on line. - I'm constantly reviewing my jobs and ask, "How could I have done that Better, Faster, Smarter?" Are there any new tools or gadgets that would save me time and effort? "If money were no object, what would I buy today to make my work life more fun?" I spend a couple of hundred dollars a month, at least, testing and trying tools and gadgets. Almost daily, I google "Handyman," and KZbin looking for new tools and techniques. My goal is to make $2,000 a week working 6 hours a day. Some weeks I hit it and some I don't. I have almost all normal handyman jobs one can do in a rent house to under an hour.

I'm not a handyman - I'm a joiner, but this is what I take if I'm doing smaller handyman jobs for existing customers. I have a multi-tool and dremel but only take those if the job needs it. Sounds like you have a great set-up! 👍

Hi Andy, one of the most useful things I found for the problem solving bag is P38 car body filler. It can be used indoors or outdoors, it's good for plugging old holes or holes in the wrong place. You can use on wood, metal masonry, it is dry in 20 mins max can be shaped and sanded to the desired profile, sticks like poo! Once over painted it is completely hidden. Will not crack or blister in cold or heat. Learnt about its uses from an old painter an decorator chap, I never leave to go on a job without it. This product really has got me out of some difficult situations. Love you videos find them very informative, keep up the good work, regards Paul.

It's important to be disciplined and to always think of what you're gonna need on this next job, make a mental list and only take the stuff you're actually gonna need... Plus all the rest of the junk that's sitting in the back of the shed that you're never gonna use! Because you know if you left it behind you'd end up craving for it. Is this one of Murphy's laws?

Done research on marketing and got someone to help me with that side but what I'm curious in is do you ever use 110v or 240v? I know most sites want 110v but when working in someone's house do you use 240v? Don't fancy changing some of my tools if I don't need too. Most are battery power Makita but might need to take table saw or sliding mitre saw. Will upgrade my tracksaw so table saw won't be needed much. Thank you

I'm surprised you use those screws I have found them not very good for finish carpentry 2nd fix. Only used them if I have run out on 1st fix

Out of a matter of interest what problems have you had? Turbogold & Quicksilver are top quality screws - used them for years and done quite a few tests on them on this channel. 👍

Gosforth Handyman had screws snap even when pre drilling into mdf you get lots of bent ones and don't pull up as well as other brands. Especially in mdf. Turbo golds have not much thread

Honestly think you've had a dodgy batch or something, Turbogold and Quicksilver are carbon steel - I get through literally thousands. Never, ever had one snap, never had a bent one. My impact will give out before the screw does. Turbogolds are self-drilling.

You say about saw that fits in your toolbox, but you ever tried the Japanese pull saws? I've heard that they're slowly becoming more popular with contractors in the UK? Just bought a cross/rip combo from Axminster and seems good, but I've not really had a big enough project to use them on much yet!

@thequietkiwi 3 жыл бұрын
Pull saws are good for pruning trees and cutting firewood but it's hard to cut accurately with them if you're doing detailing work. Well that's just from my experience but I'm sure there are experts out there :)

Hello I want to start a carrier as a handyman. I want to get some experience before I apply for jobs because everybody wants experienced workers. How can I do this? Should I go to school? If yes, do you know any school in Miami, if not anywhere in the US? Thx

Whenever I see one of these "bit-box" toters, I scrape the bottom of my carry for loose hardware and fasteners and toss them about. Without fail, their OCD will draw them to pick the stuff up and put it into their carry.....just kills me, every time...

Just out of interest, how come there’s a need to go half a size smaller with the SDS drill bits?
@GosforthHandyman
@GosforthHandyman 4 жыл бұрын
The SDS tends to bounce about a bit so a 6mm hole can be a bit 'loose' for a 6mm plug. Safer to go 5.5mm - if it's too tight then just open it up to 6mm with the combi drill. 👍

Ha, there's a big topic! I love my truck but I've love a van... but then we'd need a 3rd vehicle for family holidays etc. since I need the 5 seats. Plus vans are banned where I live (don't get me started on that one!). I just hire a van for about £30 when I need one to drop bigger stuff off and that works pretty well. 👍
