    Default Smaller tool recommendations

    Afternoon all,

    What would you all recommend for the following? Would rather buy decent tools for a decent price:

    Trowels for general wall and floor use
    Grout float
    Sponges or probably a washboy

    I've got a little Rubi cutter, Multimaster and a few other lovelies it's just the basics I need to replace.

    Thanks in advance, Simon
