Living in a small apartment or house can sometimes make it challenging for us to try and fit all of our belongings into one place.
It’s actually a national phenomenon – living in a small space that is. A recent study found that over a third of Britons find their homes too small for their needs.
Here at Mad4Tools we’re firm believers that no matter what size your home is, with some DIY spirit, good old elbow grease and some great quality tools, you can create a living space that you’ll be proud to call your own. From what colours to make use of down to the types of furniture that’ll help your room look bigger, our small space design ideas and tips will help to maximise space in any small property:
To summarise:
Choose furniture with reflective surfaces such as glass, mirrors and metal
Use areas above cabinets and doors for shelves
Paint your ceilings a lighter colour than your walls and use cool or nude colours to expand your room
Use sliding doors instead of swinging doors
Find yourself some double-duty furniture
By incorporating a combination of these tips, you’ll begin to adjust to a tighter living space in no time!

These spring gardening tips will get your garden Summer ready.
Winter might be taking its time to leave, but with its bags packed and Spring threatening to breakthrough in earnest, it’s time to get back to work in our gardens.
Although largely neglected over the Winter months for obvious reasons, Spring is the time when our garden care begins anew with special attention paid not only to the maintenance of all-year staples like our lawn and hedges, but also bulbs, seeds and design plans for the seasons to come.
That’s why we’ve asked the keen gardeners in our team to round-up the best Spring gardening tips to help get your outdoor haven ready for the warmer months. Let’s get started.
Spring clean those flower beds and borders
Over winter you’ll find dead leaves, branches and debris build up in your garden. It’s best to remove these from the soil surface where you are planning to plant your annual plants or veggies. Remember to wear gardening gloves, especially when working with plants with prickly leaves, to keep your hands protected from cuts and grazes.
Top Tip: Be sure to have a wheelbarrow to hand to make clearing debris or anything else an effortless task.
Tidy up lawns and hedges
Grass grows very slowly over Winter, but it does grow, and by the time Spring rolls around, you’re going to have to begin your lawn care routine once again. A high-quality lawnmower will let you adjust grass cutting length and keep your garden looking amazing. Begin with the blades lower for a shorter cut to make sure the grass grows out healthy.
At the start of Spring, you should also cut your hedges back significantly, ensuring that they’re tapered inwards towards the top. This will enable greater light penetration for the whole bush. Whilst you could call in the professionals, hedge trimmers offer total mobility and freedom for a great finish, plus you’ll save money in the long run!
Prune trees and shrubs
Overhanging branches or foliage on trees will need to be cut back but this can be a big job. Tools such as the Silverline Chain Blade Wood Saw are worth investing in to make this task fast and fuss-free.
Plants that have survived the winter will need to be trimmed too. This will help them bloom again in the summer months.
Top Tip: Only prune shrubs before their buds have had time to bloom, otherwise you will stress the shrub or tree and may end up with a tiny crop (or none at all).
Invest in summer-flowering bulbs and seeds
Now is the perfect time to order flowers like lilies, gladioli and ranunculi for early-spring planting. These will give you a perfect show in the summer. Make sure you have the right tools ahead of time like a classic Dibber. Dibbers such as the Silverline Traditional Garden Dibber make creating holes for planting seeds and bulbs an effortless task and it’s affordable!
Whilst you wait for your summer flowers to blossom, you could add plants such as tulips to enjoy a nice burst of colour in your spring garden. A good garden trowel has dozens of uses, not least in planting bedding plants and moving soil so make sure you have one ready.
Why not plant some veggies too? Cool-season vegetables like lettuce and peas, sprout best in cool soil, so now is the time to plant them. However, be sure to protect these from pests like slugs with the help of Slug Traps.
Clean and maintain your garden equipment
All that Spring gardening work requires the right tools, but you need to maintain them if you want them to last and save you money.
Hand tools including spades, hoes, trowel and rakes will benefit greatly from a good clean and oiling. For more on maintaining your gardening tools, check out our Top 5 Tips for Maintaining Your Garden Equipment.

When you’re buying a car, you come to associate certain traits with specific brands. X is powerful, Y is economical, Z is comfortable, and so on.
Over the years, Hyundai has developed a reputation themselves for cars that are at once both affordable and reliable. It’s a reputation that’s been hard-won and passed around through word of mouth, but it’s not a reputation they’ve developed from their cars alone – because it’s a description that applies equally well to Hyundai Power Equipment.
A division of parent company Hyundai, Hyundai Power Equipment produces a stellar range of generators, garden machinery, pressure washers, compressors, water pumps and more. Distributed and repaired in the UK by Genpower Ltd, Hyundai Power Equipment offer a comprehensive range of tools and equipment backed up with a generous manufacturer’s warranty.
At MAD4TOOLS, we’re proud to supply over 150 products from across the Hyundai Power Equipment range, and in this guide, we’re going to take a look at the various categories Hyundai Power Equipment operate within. Let’s get started.
Generators
Hyundai is perhaps best known for their industry-leading range of powerful generator units. From the likes of the top-of-the-range Hyundai DHY85KSE Silenced 3-Phase Diesel Generator 68kW/85KVa to site generators like the Hyundai HY2800L-2 Recoil Start Petrol Generator 2.2kW/2.75kVA there are over 40 models to choose from. Their range includes:
Petrol generators
Diesel generators
Inverter generators
Welder generators
So, whether you’re looking to power a remote site or build in back up power for a whole building, Hyundai Power Equipment’s range offers a product for every requirement at a great price.
Garden Machinery
It’s easy to go wrong with garden machinery. Put under immense stress and often having to deal with significant shifts in humidity, lesser models are prone to regular failure. As such, it’s imperative that you invest in quality.
Thankfully, with Hyundai Power Equipment, it’s never been easier to know you’re getting a high-quality product. Hyundai’s unwavering commitment to quality ensures that no matter whether you’re buying a Hyundai HYM460SP Petrol Self Propelled Lawn Mower or a Hyundai HYTR250E Electric 250w Line Trimmer you know you’re getting a product that will stand the test of time.
Their range includes:
Chainsaws
Grass trimmers
Hedge trimmers
Lawnmowers
Multi-tool
Wood chippers
Log splitters
Whilst Hyundai have built their reputation on petrol and diesel-powered equipment, they’ve also mastered the game with their convenient battery-powered garden machinery.
Providing a safe, clean and green alternative to traditional fossil fuel-powered machinery, Hyundai’s 60v range features five battery powered garden tools that all share the same battery design, so you can quickly swap in and out of your tools without wasting time or money on multiple sets of batteries.
This range includes the HYTR60Li Cordless 60v Line Trimmer, HYTR60Li Cordless 60v Line Trimmer, and the HYC60Li Cordless 60v Chainsaw.
So, whether you want a petrol, diesel or battery-powered garden tool, you’ll find that the Hyundai range has everything you need to keep your garden looking superb, without breaking the bank.
Pressure Washers
Blast away dirt, grime and debris with the petrol and diesel-powered pressure washers from Hyundai, ideal for either commercial or domestic use thanks to their high-pressure output and affordable prices.
Our range of Hyundai pressure washers produces up to 4200psi jets of water, capable of completing even the toughest of jobs. With pumps constructed by Italian pump specialist Annovi Reverberi, they’re designed to operate with absolute quality and reliability throughout the year.
Compressors
Hyundai has an expansive range of compressors in their line-up, with models designed to cover home, domestic, DIY and professional use cases. Whether it’s the Hyundai HY2524 Home Series Direct Drive Air Compressor for home usage or the industrial-tier Hyundai HY140200P Petrol Driven Air Compressor, you can be certain you’re getting Hyundai’s decades of experience.
Their range includes:
Belt drive compressors
Direct drive compressors
Petrol drive compressors
Rotary screw compressors
Water Pumps
Utilising their expertise in engines, Hyundai has launched a range of petrol, diesel and electric water pumps, many of which are submersible.
Designed to handle an extremely wide range of use cases, Hyundai’s range extends from the top-of-the-line industrial DHYT80E Diesel Trash Water Pump, capable of pumping 880L per minute all the way to personal consumer level HYSP400CD Submersible Water Pump with Float Switch 240v with its low price and 11000L per hour output. Put simply, if it’s a water pump you need, Hyundai is brilliantly placed to help you satisfy your requirements. Take a look at the range here.
Earth Augers
Hyundai’s earth augers are built from the ground up to offer stunning performance at prices that can’t be matched elsewhere. Designed for either home or professional usage, they’re ideal for drilling into the earth to set fence posts, poles, trees or foundation stumps.
Tillers
Hyundai Power Equipment recently introduced the HYT140, a new self-propelled petrol tiller from Hyundai, powered by a 4hp, 4-stroke petrol engine and featuring a heavy-duty gearbox. It’s real innovation, however, is the easy frame control with 4 steel tines, providing a cutting width of 370mm, a great additional feature.
Drills
Part of the power tools range features DIY essentials such as drills. Take for example the HY2175 18v 1.5AH Li-Ion Cordless Drill with 89 Piece Drill Accessory Kit – a highly versatile, lightweight and ergonomically designed drill powered by a Hyundai 18V Lithium-Ion 1.5Ah Rechargeable Battery. The HY2175 also comes with a built-in LED work light making it a convenient companion for working in low light areas.
Wet & Dry Vacuums
Tough jobs need premium vacuum cleaners and in the world of wet & dry vacuum cleaners, there are few as tough as Hyundai’s premium offerings.
At MAD4TOOLS we’re proud to carry three models from the range, the Hyundai HYBI3014 1400w 3-in-1 Industrial Wet & Dry Vacuum Cleaner, Hyundai HYBI2012 1200w 3-In-1 Industrial Wet & Dry Vacuum Cleaner and the Hyundai HYV10030 3000w 3-In-1 Industrial Wet & Dry Vacuum Cleaner.
It’s just another example of how Hyundai Power Equipment combines raw power with thoughtful design.

Buckler Boots were born out of frustration. Frustration that the work boots available in 1997 were sub-standard in almost every respect one could expect a pair of boots to be.

If you ask most people about builders and tradespeople, you’ll often get some pretty nasty stereotypes back. ‘Lazy!’, ‘Beer-swilling!’, ‘Wolf-whistling!’ and just some of the more common epithets when it comes to the great British builder.
They’re accusations as old as time itself, but in 2021, do any of them still ring true? We live in an age of immense competition for jobs, so is there any room for the ‘fry-up at 10 am and pub by 4 pm’ builder, and do they even still exist?
According to research by My Builder, the answer is ‘no’. In fact, their study found that modern builders are far from the stereotypes they’re often laden with. So, what are the biggest myths tackled by the My Builder report? Let’s take a look.
‘Builders are Lazy and Smelly’
We’ve all heard it before, but whilst there might well be some lazy builders out there, the vast majority are up and at it first thing in the morning.
Case in point? Fully 95% of those polled by My Builder report waking up every day before 7 am. They’re not just rolling out of bed and on to the site either, with 32% doing their hair, 24% applying aftershave and 1 in 5 moisturising! Clearly, the male grooming revolution has spread to the modern builder.
Additionally, 98% of builders shower at least once per day with 64% opting for two showers a day and 55% enjoying a relaxing bubble bath at the end of the day.
‘All Builders Cat-Call and Wolf-Whistle’
Sexism isn’t a laughing matter, and for most builders being labelled a sexist is a real concern. 69% of those polled said that they’d never cat-called or wolf-whistled to anyone of the opposite sex, preferring to keep their attention on the task at hand instead.
To take it one step further, 62% of tradespeople identified themselves as feminist, with 76% believing that wolf-whistling was out of date and old-fashioned and over half of them suggesting they would urge a catcalling or wolf-whistling colleague to stop.
‘Builders Live on Cups of Tea, Cigs and Fry-Ups’
Builders expend a huge amount of energy throughout the day and whilst fry-ups used to offer a quick way for builders to get some energy, they’ve fallen far out of fashion. Today, just 6% of those builders polled reported having a fry-up for breakfast. Pray for greasy spoons across the nation!
Whilst tea remains a very popular beverage for the modern builder (50% drink it), 49% love water and 44% are partial to a cup of coffee.
As for cigarettes, well, they’re out with three-quarters of builders opting not to smoke at all.
‘Builders Live in the Pub’
Swift one after a hard day’s work? Not for most builders, with 63% rushing home to spend time with the family before bedtime. Watching TV is the second most popular habit (60%), followed by playing sports (31%) pushing the pub to fourth place at just 29%. So much for that stereotype, ey?
Builders are even enthusiastic about offering a hand around the home. Hoovering (38%) and washing up (29%) were among the chores which builders report favouring. Proof, once and for all, that absolutely no one likes taking the bins out.
So there you have it. Just like many aspects of modern-day, the building profession is changing and it’s great to see those old builder stereotypes fizzling out!

When it comes to working on site, there are many regulations and conventions which govern how we act, what tools we use and how we operate, which can make sorting the vital from the merely important difficult.
That’s none truer than in the case of 110V, with a great many of our customers asking us whether it’s actually required on larger building sites, or whether it’s merely extremely popular?
Well, the truth of the matter is that whilst there’s no specific regulation which demands the use of 110V on larger sites, it’s highly recommended that you do use it. Why? Let us explain.
What is 110V?
110v is a professional site voltage, designed specifically for high workload areas, like large sites. A transformer (typically bright yellow) is used to convert a typical ‘household’ 240V power supply to 110V, with yet more bright yellow leads running out from the transformer to your equipment.
110V site transformers are centre tapped, which means that the 110V output is actually 2 x 55V. This lower voltage and current is much safer to use, and is far less likely to cause serious harm if a wire were cut, stepped on or otherwise damaged. It’s for this reason that 110V rose to prominence as a safer standard for electricity on site following large numbers of electrical accidents.
As such, 110V is now the accepted standard for building sites and may be enforced by insurance companies who insure the site.
Do you Need 110V?
The law in the UK states that you must take effective precautions against the risk of death and injury from electricity during construction. It doesn’t, however, state that 110V power supplies must be used. So, whilst there’s no legal reason why you can’t use an RCD and a 240V power supply, it’s not often recommended.
The reason for this is because RCD (residual current device) units can fail, and won’t detect every fault in a standard 240V system, making them more broadly unreliable than a 110V transformer for on-site usage.
On large sites where there are numerous cables, trades and companies all working in the same area then, 110V is the preferred and safest way to power tools, lighting and other vital on-site equipment.
The advice from the Health and Safety Executive is that tools, plugs and cables designed for domestic use are not suitable for on-site conditions, and that cordless or 110V tools are preferred.
How Can You Ensure 110V Power on a Site?
You’ll find that the majority of very large sites will have their own on-site generator and that these generators have 110V sockets attached to them. However, if that isn’t the case for your site, a 110V transformer is an essential purchase.
These units come in a variety of sizes and at a number of price points, but ultimately your choice of model will come down to the number of sockets you require.
At MAD4TOOLS, we’re proud to supply a huge variety of 110v transformers, extension cables and accessories to our valued trade clients. Take a look at our range today and start working safer.

Let’s be honest with ourselves – when winter sets in, everything gets just that little bit harder.
Less safe underfoot and with less dexterity in our fingers, even the smallest jobs can become not only difficult but dangerous too. Aside from filling up the flask and blowing warm air into cupped hands though, what can we do to keep out the cold and bring our work rate back up to scratch?
The answer, as we’re sure you know, is winter workwear. If you’re a tradesperson currently working outside, here’s a few of our handpicked choices, so you can be walking in a winter workwear wonderland too. Let’s go.
Winter Work Hats
Keeping warm isn’t just about big coats and gloves, it’s about paying attention to areas of your body where heat is likely to escape from. When you’re working outside, that means your head.
Not just any hat will do though, because most sites require you to wear certain Personal Protection equipment, namely, a hard hat.
That’s why you need a Scruffs Peaked Beanie Hat. Extremely affordable and superbly stylish, this insulated peaked beanie fits underneath most hard hats, so you can get on with your job safely, without losing body heat along the way. Available in 3 different colours, black, navy & graphite grey.
Paired with Scruffs Snood Scarf Neck Warmer, you’ll be ready to take on the elements, whatever they might have in store with you.
Winter Work Jackets and Thermals
Building an effective base layer is the first step to keeping warm in adverse conditions, which is why we recommend you invest in some Thermal Trousers and Top. These soft, comfortable base layers will keep your body temperature up, even if you have to remove or open your coat for a period.
From there, choose from our stunning range of winter jackets. Jackets like the Scruffs Waterproof Worker Jacket combine a waterproof rating of 3000mm with a lightweight mesh lining, ideal for layering, making it the perfect accessory for all wet and cold weather.
Winter Work Trousers
We all know how hard our trousers work whilst on site, but when winter rolls around, things get considerably tougher. Ice cold surfaces, lashing rain and snow – plus an increased chance of slipping – means you need the very best.
That’s why we offer an unparalleled range of work trousers to beat the elements, each designed to help you get your job done safely and comfortably.
Winter Work Boots and Gloves
Last (but certainly not least) are those most vital of personal protection equipment – work boots and gloves.
Keeping feet warm is essential to keeping working comfortably and safely, but did you know the fastest way feet lose their heat is when they’re wet? It’s for that reason that we strongly suggest you invest in a pair of waterproof safety boots, like this model from V12, which is waterproof, anti-static, heat resistant and has a composite toecap and midsole. It also features the innovative IGS rubber sole unit to ensure superb grip on all surfaces.
If you prefer a welly, we’ve got you covered too with our wide range of safety wellingtons. Offering all of the benefits of a standard wellington, our footwear also has the added benefit of heat and impact resistance, making them ideal for all your on site jobs.
Your hands too require special protection during the winter months, protection offered by products like the DeWalt Thermal Winter Safety Gloves which keep hands warm and dry in even the coldest conditions, as well as protecting you at work.

Flooding has proven absolutely devastating to vast swathes of the UK population over the last decade. The damage and disruption it causes can be expensive, difficult and upsetting.
For those living or working in properties which are susceptible to flooding, the risk of significant structural and decorative damage is a real one, so it’s worth preparing as much as possible in advance.
As more and more of us are beginning to think about how we can effectively defend our properties from the threat of water damage, we’ve put together a definitive list to help prepare for home flooding.
Here’s what we recommend:
Clean your guttering
Your guttering is your homes first defence against flash flood conditions. If it’s not working as it should do, water can build up and potentially cause catastrophic damage to your property.
So, when the weather is fine, ensure that you (or a tradesman) goes up there to see what the situation is. Your gutters should be clear of vegetation and debris as well as safely secured and in good condition. At Mad4Tools we have a range of cleaning products that will do just the job.
Keep sand bags ready
When it comes to flood defence, there are few tools as ubiquitous as sand bags. Available in either hessian or poly construction, sand bags simply need to be filled with sand to absorb moisture and stop water from entering under doors.
Although hessian is kinder to the environment, it’s not waterproof and, over time, can allow water to seep through, albeit slowly. It’s for this reason that we recommend poly sand bags, as they offer sturdy, waterproof protection for your home.
Sand bags can also be used for weighing down garden furniture as well as blocking toilets, bath drains and sinks to prevent floodwater from coming up through them.
Assemble an emergency kit
To ensure you’re ready for anything during extreme weather conditions, we recommend creating an emergency kit with all your essential items.
Once you’ve packed your emergency bag, remember to store it somewhere safe and easily accessible. You’ll also want to make sure that everyone in your home knows where it can be found and what is in it.
Here are our recommendations of what to include in your emergency kit:
All essential medication for you and your household members including any repeat prescription forms
Bottled water and non-perishable food items
A first aid kit
Insurance and other important documents
A torch and non-rechargeable batteries (these tend to last longer than rechargeable ones)
Mobile phone and portable phone charger
Insurance emergency helpline, emergency services numbers, family & friends telephone numbers
Warm, waterproof clothing and blankets
Wellington boots
Emergency cash
Portable radio
This may not be an exhaustive list, there may be extra things that you would like to take with you in the situation where flooding occurs.
Best tools to consider if your flood defences are broken:
A dehumidifier
When an area falls victim to water damage, one of the most common remedies is to use a large fan to dry the area. While this solution may work well for minimal water damage, it’s often not enough for extensive damage. This is where a dehumidifier comes into its own.
Dehumidifiers have cooled metal fins that are below dew point, the temperature at which condensation forms. As the fans move the air, the chilled fins condense the moisture in the form of vapour, or gas. The condensed water is then collected in a tray or pumped away.
Depending on the model, a dehumidifier can remove up to 300 pints of water in a day. In addition to removing excess water vapour from the air, the reduced vapour concentration promotes the evaporation of water molecules. As fans move the air, dehumidifiers speed up the evaporation process.
Prior to using a dehumidifier, it is essential to ensure that it is safe to enter the affected space, especially as you will be using electronic equipment. It is also a good idea to identify the source of the water intrusion and remedy it to prevent further damage.
What happens if I don’t dehumidify a flooded area?
Dehumidifiers are essential to use in a flooded area. Without using it you can get a serious mould problem. Mould can start breeding after just a day or two and cause secondary damage. It is therefore important to act as quickly as possible if your home has been flooded.
Invest in a pump
If your building is highly susceptible to flooding or has a subterranean floor which floods often, it can make good sense to invest in a water pump. Capable of expelling up to 250 litres of water per minute it’s the ideal way to keep your home from suffering serious damage if your other flood protection methods have failed.
Carpet Blower/Dryer
The CB3000 Carpet Dryer is ideal for drying after floods or spillages, and will significantly reduce the drying time of wet carpets. The CB3000 Carpet Dryer also aids circulation drying of vertical walls and ceilings due to its vertical position. Voltage: 110v.
Features:
