Top 5 Power Tools Every DIYer Should Own in 2025

If you’re starting your DIY journey or looking to upgrade your toolkit, investing in the right power tools makes all the difference. At HMF Tools & Fixings in Amersham, we stock trusted brands and quality products to help you get the job done — whether it’s small home repairs or larger projects.

Here are the top 5 essential power tools every DIY enthusiast should have in 2025.

1. Cordless Drill/Driver

A cordless drill is the backbone of any DIY toolkit. Perfect for drilling holes and driving screws, today’s models are lightweight, powerful, and long-lasting thanks to improved battery technology.

👉 Pro Tip: Look for a drill with multiple torque settings for precision work.

2. Impact Driver

For heavier jobs where a standard drill might struggle, an impact driver gives you extra power and efficiency. They’re ideal for driving long screws or working with tough materials like hardwood.

3. Angle Grinder

An angle grinder is a versatile tool for cutting, grinding, and polishing. Whether you’re working with metal, stone, or tiles, having one in your kit will save time and effort.

4. Circular Saw

For straight, accurate cuts in wood and sheet material, a circular saw is essential. It’s much faster than hand sawing and ensures clean, professional results — perfect for decking, flooring, or building furniture.

5. Multi-Tool (Oscillating Tool)

The ultimate all-rounder. A multi-tool can sand, cut, grind, and scrape, making it perfect for smaller jobs and awkward spaces. Once you own one, you’ll wonder how you managed without it.
