About ConstructionTested

On a jobsite, gear is judged by whether it passes inspection and keeps working. A hard hat of the wrong type, a ladder rated below your weight with tools, or a cordless platform without the tools your trade needs costs time and can cost more. ConstructionTested starts with the standard or the task, then compares tools and equipment on the specifications that predict performance.

We cover cordless platforms and power tools, hand tools, PPE and workwear, layout and measuring, ladders, scaffolding and access, jobsite power, lighting and storage, site equipment, and trade-specific gear. Home renovation materials belong to RenovationTested, and lawn equipment to YardVetted. Follow OSHA rules, your employer's safety program and manufacturers' instructions.
