No Tools? No Problem! H.D. to the Rescue

DIY

This post is sponsored by the Home Depot.

Last week I needed to help my mom out and tackle her outdoor deck furniture. It was in terrible shape with chipped and cracked paint. I needed a paint sprayer. I don’t own a paint sprayer, but knew it would be the best and quickest method to getting the weathered wicker furniture and her rocking chairs looking good once more. Buying a sprayer just for this project seemed silly. So what could I do?  It was time to head to the Home Depot’s Tool Rental Center.

Amazing tool rental department at Home Depot

The Home Depot’s Tool Rental Center has almost any tool you can think of available for rent. They even have trucks available for rent also. The center has options available where you can rent either by the hour, the day or the week.

I headed to our local Home Depot Tool Rental Center inside Home Depot to rent a paint sprayer. HD team members, Nathan and Candice, were very helpful and greeted me with a smile.

Renting tools from Home Depot is not something new for this DIY family. We have rented several tools from them in the past, like this pneumatic floor nailer and mallet when we were installing hardwood floors in our music room. The tool worked great and was so simple to use. Don’t ever think that you aren’t capable of laying your own hardwood floors! The process is easier than you think! We plan on renting them again sometime this summer when we switch out the carpet for hardwood in our familyroom.

    This post is so timely. I have been wanting a paint sprayer but don’t know what kind I want or need. And have never used one. So the thought of my Dad spending the money
    ( I talked him into buying me one for my birthday next month) without me ever using one was scary. But the idea of renting one to see if I can handle it and how it works first is brilliant. Thanks. Home Depot see you soon!

    The furniture looks brand new — fresh and clean! Do you recommend using some type of sealer (polyurethane or some type of weather protectant) on the furniture once it is spray painted?

      Hi Joanne! You certainly can. It won’t hurt. It’s probably a good idea especially if the furniture is going to be exposed to rain.

    Looks brand new! Great job! Also have to ask, where did she get that juke wrapped glass ball? Love it!

      Hi Lisa,
      Thanks so much! I bought that glass float from a little design store when on vacation in the Outerbanks Islands of N.C.
