Essential Tools to Have at Your Gainesville, Florida Apartment

A key perk of living in Gainesville, Florida apartments is the fact that you don’t have to worry about repairs or maintenance. Thankfully, the apartment community staff is there to keep your apartment in tip-top shape. Even so, there are plenty of times when you will have to take care of small, personal projects yourself, and you will need tools to complete these projects.

For example, what if you are too short to reach the top of a kitchen cabinet? (You’ll need a step stool.) Or what if a thunderstorm causes the electricity to shut off? (Locate your flashlight.) Or how about those times when you want to fix something in your computer? (Grab a screwdriver.)

From happy jobs like opening packages (box cutter) to icky jobs like pulling hair out of the shower drain (needle nose pliers) the following is a list of tools you should keep in your Gainesville, Florida apartment:

  • Step stool
  • Tape measure
  • Scissors and kitchen shears
  • Extra keys
  • Batteries
  • Flashlights and other battery-operated lights
  • Battery operated radio and alarm clock
  • Screwdrivers (Phillips head, flat heat, etc.)
  • Hammer
  • Screws and nails
  • Leveler
  • Needle nose pliers
  • Wrench
  • 3M wall hooks
  • Duct tape
  • WD-40
  • Gloves
  • Sharpies
  • Pencils
  • Box cutter
  • Toolbox to keep all your tools organized and handy

You may be surprised to learn that most Gainesville apartment residents find themselves reaching for their tool box on a daily basis. Once you get your toolbox ready, you will wonder how you ever survived without it.

“The scenery and space is amazing. The apartment leasing staff and maintenance staff are wonderful. I love that its a gated community and all though it's family and student oriented it's still extremely quiet.”
“This is a quiet gated community with nice apartments located in a great area.”
“We just moved in about a month ago. We had maintenance in so many times trying to get things set up for my disabled son - but they never complained. The grounds are beautiful. The people in the office are always polite and helpful. Very happy here.”
