For example, I think I’ll need a ladder. I’m looking for any suggestions from tools to security cameras, or whatever else you can think of. What should every new home owner consider getting?

Edit: in Canada btw, somewhere that gets a lot of snow in the winter

    I don’t own many tools, let alone enough tools that would necessitate an entire chest. What in particular do you suggest I fill it with?

      Inevitably you are going to need tools after you tire of paying contractors to fix or install things.

      A set of screwdrivers, pliers, tape measure, hammer

      That’s your starting set. As a homeowner trust me, you’ll find places to use them.

      For now get something better than a cardboard box for your tools, something you can carry all the basics around with. A bucket works, a bucket with a handyman belt on it (they sell these for buckets) works well enough. When you run out of space just know that no matter what you upgrade to you will run out of space again. Start small and upgrade as needed.
