Categories for purchases

I recently started a Ltd company, and I need to put my purchases into categories. Nothing seems like a clear place to log things...

This is a building/renovation firm.

What category would I use for tools/equipment that I purchased e.g. a hammer?

What category would I use for products that I purchased for use in the job e.g. a piece of wood?

What category would I use for a specialist company working on site e.g. a new water supply?

 

Thanks in advance

So, your answer is; 'don't ask us'...?

 

Thanks for your 'help' on such a simple question.

 

I guess the real question is why has Intuit made their software so ambiguous that they can't even give a sensible answer...
