Working at a range of sites, on a bunch of products, with different tools calls for adaptability. Depending on the job, a universal socket can be a great way for power drills to handle any size of nut or bolt on a job. Pick one up with a Busy Beaver gift card.

3 – Work gloves

Our hands are always working, so protecting them is essential. Heavy-duty work gloves are always in demand – they’re useful gifts for construction workers and show you’re thinking about their safety and comfort. Buy them from Lowe’s.

4 – LED headlamp

Sometimes, you need to shine a little bit of light on the subject. When you’re using your hands, that can be a little tricky – that’s why LED headlamps are perfect. Light up a loved one’s day, with a handy LED headlamp. Browse for them with a REI gift card.

5 – Screwdriver set

Any construction worker worth their salt has a screwdriver set, but sometimes they can get a bit old, battered, and outdated. If you know someone due an upgrade or stepping into the field, this makes an amazing gift for a construction worker. Get one with a Lowe's gift card.

6 – Calculator

Working in construction isn’t all about heavy lifting. From labor and material costs to overheads, rooflines, degrees, and compound angles – help a blue-collar expert in your life and give their brain a rest with a handy, new calculator. Buy a calculator at Target.

7 – Work boots

Work boots are the distantly related digit protector to the work gloves, a staple of any worksite. These make great gifts for construction workers, protecting their feet and keeping them comfortable for hours at a time. Get some with a Famous Footwear gift card.

8 – Safety sunglasses

Sparks can fly on a construction site, and that’s no metaphor. Safety is essential and eye protection is always in demand. Safety sunglasses are great gifts for builders to shield them from dust, splinters, and other dangers on the job. Take a look at the options at Sunglass Hut.

9 – Tool backpack

Gearing up for a day on the job is no small task, but with a specially designed tool backpack, your loved ones can carry everything they need with ease. No more juggling toolboxes, wrenches, lunch, and all the rest. Check out the selection at Ace Hardware.

10 – Heavy-duty phone case

Regular phone cases aren’t going to do much when the hammers start falling or the bricks start tumbling. With so many phone-ending hazards out there, a heavy-duty phone case can keep their cell phone intact for longer. Purchase one with an Apple gift card.

Hammers, the ultimate utility tool. From carpentry to framing, demolition to construction, the hammer handles it all. If in doubt, a high-quality and durable hammer is a gift that could last a construction worker years to come. Get yours from Busy Beaver.
