Tyzack FAQs

Is Tyzack suitable for professional use?

Absolutely. Tyzack is widely regarded as an excellent professional brand among British tradespeople, with over two centuries of heritage. Professional plasterers and bricklayers trust Tyzack for producing well-balanced, durable trowels that maintain their edge and provide reliable performance year after year.

What's the difference between stainless steel and carbon steel Tyzack trowels?

Stainless steel trowels resist corrosion, are easier to clean, and require less maintenance – ideal for wet plastering work. Carbon steel trowels offer a traditional feel preferred by many experienced tradespeople and can be easier to break in for optimal flexibility. Both materials deliver excellent performance when properly maintained.

How do I maintain my Tyzack trowels?

Clean trowels thoroughly after each use, removing all plaster or mortar residue. Dry carbon steel trowels completely to prevent rust and apply a light coating of oil for storage. Stainless steel trowels require less maintenance but still benefit from proper cleaning. Store in a dry location and avoid leaving in water overnight.
