Every house contractor Bali should have a complete set of tools to get the job done. Most of the important tools are basic and do not require large investments. Some specialized equipment is more expensive and only worth the investment if used frequently. Otherwise, it may be more cost-effective to rent some supplies when needed.

1.    Screed (Flattening) Concrete

A screed is a long, straight, rigid pipe or board used to flatten wet concrete after casting. Screeds come in a variety of sizes and can even be more specific to specific projects, such as those used to build concrete bridges. For hand screed, the subfloor must be longer than the width of the concrete so that it can protrude along the upper edge when the concrete is leveled.

2.    Personal protective equipment

Concrete work can be healthy and sometimes dangerous, and good work safety practices require the use of protective equipment:

• Eye protection is essential for any worker who handles mixing and pouring concrete. Portland cement in concrete is very hard and can burn your eyes.
• Hearing protection should be worn at all times when an electric saw, disc compactor, power mixer or other power tool is in operation.
• Respiratory protection should be worn when lowering or disposing of gravel or sand to avoid inhaling lime cement and dust particles.

3.    Latex Gloves

Latex gloves are very important when handling concrete. Concrete contains chemicals and additives that can cause skin irritation. The cement in concrete absorbs moisture from the skin and can cause significant damage over time.

There have even been cases where workers had to be amputated for life after years of working on concrete with unprotected skin. According to OSHA, skin problems are a major cause of time loss for concrete workers. Contractor-grade gloves for concrete work are available in several types, some provide maximum flexibility and others are designed for maximum puncture resistance.

4.    Rubber boots

Rubber boots get you ready to walk on concrete. They allow you to work standing on concrete while protecting you from skin irritation. It is important for concrete workers to choose footwear that is not only waterproof and chemical resistant but also comfortable to wear.

Concrete workers often spend hours every day, so the selection of quality leather boots is also necessary. Experts recommend rubber boots with steel tips for added safety and drawstring tops that seal the boot around your calves to prevent concrete from entering.

5.    Wheelbarrow

Wheelbarrows are needed to move small amounts of concrete or means of transportation around the construction site. They are also useful for concrete sampling for deterioration testing or other assessments.

The concrete work cart must be a powerful tool with strong tires. Able to withstand the heavy loads and continuous work required at the work site. Trays made of heavy steel or poly material are typical, with a capacity of 6 to 8 cubic feet.

6.    Portable Concrete Mixer (Molen Concrete)

Portable concrete mixer or Molen is a construction equipment that makes it possible to mix small amounts of concrete on the construction site. Mixers are useful for posters who are too small to guarantee an instant mixture.

But for the bigger, you can easily mix in a wheelbarrow or mixing tub. Portable mixers are available in a variety of sizes, ranging from those that fit on the back of a pickup truck to those that can be towed around the work site.
