Professional contractors demand a lot from their tools. They have to be tough enough for everyday use, accurate (to guard against costly errors) and durable enough to save money over the long haul. As a Do It Best retailer, Spahn & Rose offers a complete line of products just like you’d find in any hardware store. But Spahn & Rose locations cater to contractors, stocking specific brands and models built contractor-tough.
Here are 10 tools every contractor needs that Spahn & Rose offers every day of the week:
1. Milwaukee Heated Jacket
Stay warm on frosty Midwest mornings with the Milwaukee M12 heated jacket. It won’t inhibit movement, leaving you toasty yet able to work and move around the job site like it was a spring day. With advanced fabric-layering technology, the jacket distributes heat across the body in two zones, which can be adjusted independently. The jacket provides up to six hours of continuous heat per charge and includes a built-in USB port to charge other devices.
2. STABILA Level
Durable, with hair-splitting accuracy, STABILA levels are an essential for professional contractors. The high-strength aluminum frame is tough enough for years of work on the most demanding job sites. The bright, easy-to-read vials are made of block acrylic glass and firmly epoxy-locked into the frame. STABILA levels are available in nine sizes from 16 to 96 inches long.
3. Milwaukee TICK Tool and Equipment Tracker
No more misplaced or missing tools with Milwaukee’s TICK Tool and Equipment Tracker. Professional contractors can glue, screw, rivet or strap the Bluetooth-tracker TICK onto any kind of equipment. Water-, weather- and dust-resistant, TICK provides location updates within 100 feet of any phone equipped with the companion Milwaukee ONE-KEY app.
4. Werner Ladder

Werner also offers a full line of plants, scaffolding, stages and specialty ladders from 2 to 60 feet.
5. Stiletto Framing Hammer
