Hilti Teams Up With Mike Holmes

In a press release from Hilti.com, it was recently announced that Hilti will be providing a full line of tools for Mike Holmes' new series Holmes Makes It Right. It's unclear whether or not they will be the exclusive provider of tools and equipment for Mike and his crew, though. This is quite the shift, being that Mike Holmes has been using DeWALT tools fairly exclusively since the beginning days of Holmes on Homes. I guess those familiar yellow drills will now be replaced by red ones. Hilti is a very recognizable brand, and it's nice to see big names trying to attach themselves to the HOLMES brand. According to Holmes, "Hilti performs, bottom line." As anyone knows, if Mike Holmes vouches for something, he believes in it.
