Father’s Day is fast approaching and you might be thinking – what to get the man who already seems to have everything. Don’t stress – we have you covered. Say goodbye to the “No.1 Dad’ mugs and pint glasses, ditch the novelty socks and give him something practical, long-lasting, and genuinely appreciated — quality tools he’ll actually use. If your dad loves spending time in the garden, tackling DIY projects, or just enjoys fixing things around the house, then this guide to the best Father’s Day gift ideas is for you.
Put together a hamper or gift basket of items your dad’s actually going to use this year. You can find all of the items shown in our store here.
For the Gardener’s…
Shop a selection of trowels, shovels, wheelbarrows and garden rakes all displayed in a bucket for a hamper of all things dad. Add a bottle of his favourite drink or chocolates, even a giftcard for his favourite pub/restaurant.
Be sure to accessorise your hamper with a ribbon, name tag and use gift wrapping paper to fill the bottom of the hamper.
For the DIY-er…
If your dad is the kind of guy who gets more excited walking through the tool aisle than a sweet shop, then this year’s Father’s Day gift is a no-brainer. Packed with essentials like screwdrivers, hexagon key set, pliers, dewalt drill bits, a compact work torch, and 100 trimming knife blades, this hamper is perfect for tackling home repairs or weekend projects in the shed. Add in gloves, chocolates, and maybe a bottle for a personal touch — and don’t forget to throw in some extra nails and screws so he’s always ready for the next fix.
It’s thoughtful, practical, and guaranteed to make him smile.
For the Landscaper…
If your dad loves landscaping or tiling, this Father’s Day hamper is the ultimate gift to show him you really get him. Packed with practical essentials like a notched trowel, rubber mallet, spirit level, sanding blocks, and diamond cutting disc, and attachments it’s everything he needs to tackle his next outdoor project with pride. Add in a few sweet treats, some trusty carpenters pencils, and gloves for good measure, and you’ve got a present that’s both thoughtful and genuinely useful.
Just don’t forget to throw in a pack of nails or screws—he’ll thank you when he’s mid-project and doesn’t have to run to the store!
Hopefully you have a better idea of what to get dad this year!
No matter what kind of projects your dad loves, gardening, DIY, or landscaping, fixing things around the house, or taking on big landscaping projects, a well-thought-out hamper full of tools he’ll actually use is a gift that shows you really know him. It’s not just about the gear; it’s about saying thanks for all the times he’s helped out, built something from scratch, or just been there when something needed sorting. Add a few personal touches like his favourite snack or a cheeky bottle, and you’ve got a Father’s Day gift that’s both useful and genuinely meaningful.
