What tools will I need for DIY interior demolition?
Performing a DIY interior demolition project can be extremely rewarding once the dust clears. But before a wave of satisfaction can wash over you, you need to be prepared for the job.
Having the right set of tools will greatly aid your remodeling efforts, plus cut down on trips you'll have to make to the home improvement store.
Here is a list of some of the most useful tools for a demolition project:
- Crowbar
- Chisel
- Contractor grade trash bags (Home Depot)
- Good work gloves
- Lightweight hammer
- Utility knife + replacement blades
- Electric drill & bits
- Spray bottle (for wallpaper removal)
- Bucket (plumbing mishaps)
- Broom and dustpan
- Shop vac (one with a filter that can suck up drywall dust)
- Flat head screwdriver
- Protective goggles and masks
You’ll want to keep all your tools in one easy-to-access location; always put them back after using them so you’re never left searching like a chicken with its head cut off.
