Gather Materials and Tools
With your plan in place, it’s time to source all required materials and assemble the tools you’ll need. Invest in quality materials for a professional-looking and durable result—cheap substitutes can lead to frustration and rework.
Double-check your supply list to avoid unnecessary trips to the store, and consider borrowing or renting specialty tools if needed. Being well-prepared streamlines the process and helps you stay focused once work begins. For advice on selecting the best materials and tools, consult resources like The Home Depot’s DIY Tool Guide.
