Essential tools for a first professional kit
A practical starting list for tradespeople setting up their first van kit.
Core cordless tools
Most trades start with a combi drill and an impact driver on the same platform, plus at least two batteries so one can charge while the other is in use.
Cutting and finishing
Depending on your trade, add a circular saw, reciprocating saw or angle grinder — and the correct blades or discs for the materials you work with.
Storage and safety
A modular storage system keeps tools organised and protected. Eye protection, gloves and hearing protection should be part of every kit.
