In this article, explore 3 tools that could make construction easier, like Gaffgun, Roof Ridge Ladder Hook, and Easy Lift Pro.

The GaffGun

The GaffGun is a tape applicator that easily lays floor tape over cables. It gathers the cables effortlessly into its CableGuides. The CableGuide is a series of interchangeable clamps that snap on and off depending on the number of cables you’re taping. The GaffGun can work for a variety of different industries so it comes with your choice of tape based on what you need it for. Seaming dance floors, putting carpet tape down, or just keeping cables in place on the construction site.

“The GaffGun has been really useful to us. We’ve been able to use if for a wide range of jobs,” says Greaves Motorsports when asked about their experience with GaffGun.

Roof Ridge Ladder Hook

The Roof Ridge Ladder Hook is an essential tool for safety while working on roofs. It has an adjustable lock that secures almost any ladder to your roof with ease. It works on wet or icy surfaces, steep pitches, chimneys, and can even angle across roof contours. The reinforced rod around the hook helps to add durability and strength.

Roof Ridge Ladder Hook has many positive reviews on The Home Depot website including reviews like “Love this product, does the job in roof areas that may be difficult even when using a machine crane. Very durable!” from a user named “Yah7”

Easylift Pro

Easylift Pro was designed to make picking up heavy concrete slabs quick and easy. The adjustable blade can transport concrete slabs with a thickness of 1 to 10 inches while picking up multiple tiles at the same time. If you purchase the Extension Set, Easylift pro can lift up to 48 inch slabs. Easylift has a standard clamping range of around 12 to 31 inches in increments of 1 inch.
