On Sunday, June 21, we will be celebrating daddies everywhere! On behalf of the entire 2 Bro’s Plumbing team, we’d like to wish a very Happy Father’s Day to all papas and grandpas. Are you currently on the hunt for a gift to celebrate your dad? Is he surprisingly difficult to shop for? Do you have a father who loves tackling projects around the house?
Here are three great Father’s Day gifts handy dads across Durham Region are sure to appreciate:
1. A quality multi-tool.
Compact enough to carry almost anywhere but versatile enough to solve dozens of little problems, a quality multi-tool is one of those gifts that gets used constantly. Today’s models come equipped with everything from pliers and screwdrivers to utility blades, wire cutters and bottle openers. Great for tightening a loose cabinet hinge, fixing something in the backyard or helping out during a camping trip, a durable multi-tool can quickly become your dad’s go-to gadget.
House of Knives offers a wide variety of multi-tool from trusted brands like Black Tusk, Kelvin, Leatherman, True Utility, SOG and Victorinox Swiss Army Knives. “A multi-tool is like having a complete toolbox in your pocket, and takes up only a fraction of the space,” notes their website, “Every multi-tool has a different selection of features, from scissors, to locking blades, to screwdrivers, to pliers.”
2. A cordless power tool.
Does your father still uses a drill with a battery that lasts only ten minutes? Modern cordless power tools are lighter, more efficient and far more powerful than older models. New battery systems also make it easier to switch between tools without constantly charging different batteries. A cordless drill set, compact impact driver or even a portable shop vacuum can make household projects quicker and much less frustrating.
Home Depot sells a bunch of great cordless power tools including the DEWALT ATOMIC 20V MAX compact brushless impact driver kit. “This impact driver features a high performance brushless motor that delivers 1700-inch/lbs. of torque and 3 LED lights to provide optimum illumination in dark spaces as you work,” informs their site.
3. A smart home gadget.
Devices like smart thermostats, video doorbells and garage door controllers help homeowners improve convenience and efficiency around the house. One especially useful option is a smart leak detector, which can send alerts when water is detected near appliances, sinks or water heaters. These small devices can help homeowners catch plumbing leaks early before they become expensive repairs.
“The Smart Leak Detector is a standalone sensor that can be placed anywhere in a home to alert you when and where it detects moisture to help prevent water damage and loss,” explains Moen, “If the Smart Leak Detector senses the presence of water, extreme temperatures or high humidity, it will alert you in one or more ways, according to set preferences: Moen Smart Water App, text, phone call or email.”
