Hacksaw A hacksaw may cut almost all types of duct, ranging from steel to plastic. A regular hacksaw has a detachable 10- or 12-inch-long, fine-toothed cutting edge being gripped firmly by a flexible steel frame. For cutting where the frame of standard hacksaw frame won’t let access, you may apply a “mini” or “flush-cut” hacksaw—its cutting edge sticks out directly out from the handle.
Screwdrivers Screwdrivers are essential for many plumbing tasks, beginning from replacing water taps to dismantling plumbing- associated appliances. There is a great variety of sizes and kinds. A “4-in-1” driver is one of the most practical options; it has a detachable pivot with conventional tips in two sizes every. Make certain the driver fits the screw’s head tightly; if not, it will spoil the screw and the driver’s tip.
Measuring Tape Several plumbing tasks, like determining duct runs, require a retractable steel tape measure. Obtain a 25-footer as you will be able to expand its blade not backed up for a few feet. 
Pipe Cutter There two kinds of pipe cutters that may be useful for do-it-yourself tasks. First, a plastic ducting cutter that is akin to a pair of garden pruner, may quickly cut through stiff and bendable plastic ducting, like sprinkler tube.
Second, a pipe cutter with a razor-sharp cutoff wheel and a detachable jaw grips onto a steel or copper duct; you turn it around the pipe, constantly stiffening it till it cuts all of the way through.
Drain Clearing Tools Sink and toilet pistons, “snakes” or drain augers and toilet ones are very supportive to have close at hand in case of a blocked drain.
