- Brad Taylor
Ever the know-it-all, Tim believes he has an incredibly wide knowledge of tools, electronics and general mechanics. He actually does have a significant amount of skill as a general handyman but can be overly confident and prone to spectacular mishaps. He often forgets a crucial step, ignores instructions, makes ill-advised modifications or comes to inaccurate conclusions. The only exception to this ineptitude is when working on cars, at which he excels. He is left-handed but actually does a great deal of his work with his right hand. Randy’s interests as a kid was perhaps different from his brothers.
Mark is not a troublemaker, as he doesn't possess a joking demeanor or even a hint of a mean streak. On the rare occasions that Brad or Randy include him on pranks, Mark often blows their cover by responding to someone when he is not supposed to or divulging too much information. This divulging of information gets not only Brad and Randy in trouble but often Tim as well, especially when he is trying to keep something he said or did from Jill. Harry Turner – Owner of "Harry's Hardware", where Tim spends a great deal of his time and money, and in which Al eventually became part owner. He is not-so-happily married to his wife Delores , and the couple incessantly bad-mouth one another behind their respective backs, as well as occasionally to each other's face.

Al could be characterized as a "mama's boy"; he spent a great deal of time attempting to please his mother Alma – who was severely overweight . She died from a heart attack near the end of the series after Al asked her permission to marry Trudy. Al was engaged to an orthodontist named Ilene for a time, but they ended up calling off the wedding. He also dated Greta Post who appeared a few times in the series. In a later season, Al met a wealthy exterminator named Trudy. They hit it off and were married on the show's final episode.
He has traveled the globe and learned much from virtually every culture in existence. He has a Ph.D. in Cultural Studies, studying "extinct languages and forgotten cultures". His house is full of artifacts along with a pet myna bird named Mozart, who appeared infrequently. Wilson was married at one point, but his wife Catherine died long before the series begins (in a November 1994 episode, Wilson revealed that month would have marked his and Catherine's 25th anniversary). Heidi Keppert – The second "Tool Girl" (beginning in season 3, series regular in seasons 7–8) and a master electrician. Initially, the character was seen only in and around the Tool Time set.

Marty and Jeff made appearances, and Steve was mentioned in multiple seasons. Randy is the jokester of the family, and often portrayed as the perfect combination of both Tim and Jill's personalities. He is the smartest Taylor child and like his mother, a devoted student and conspicuously intellectual. And he is also known as relaxed, adventurous, nice, daring, understanding, trustworthy, athletic, selfless, loving, optimistic and respectful. Martin "Marty" Taylor (William O'Leary) – Marty is Tim's youngest brother by ten years. As their father died when Marty was just one year old, Tim is the closest thing he knows to a father.
They share interests in journalism and the environment and even travel to Costa Rica together for an environmental study. Carrie Patterson (Tudi Roche– the real-life wife of Richard Karn), Jill's sister, a world-traveling photographer. Angela – Former girlfriend of Brad, known for being a constant motor-mouth. Brad suffered from a bout of depression because of this, but eventually rebounded.

Tim installs a jet engine on his machine, which results in Tim causing unintended chaos and destruction. Tim hosts a home improvement show called Tool Time with his co-host and friend, Al Borland. While Al is his co-host, Al constantly must remind Tim of safety regulations and practices.
Born roughly the same year as Randy, she also has a place in the school newspaper. Lauren loved to hear stories about how Brad and Randy used to torment Mark. Through cancer scares and deaths in the Taylor family, Randy always tries to cheer people up and keep them laughing.

Next, Al went on one date with Tim's ex-girlfriend Stacey Lewis, but had no interest in seeing her again. From seasons three through five, Al went out with Dr. Ilene Markham, an orthodontist and the sister of one of Jill's co-workers. Al then met a woman named Trudy in season seven and married her in the finale episode in 1999. Al has a big brother named Cal who is a physicist, and unlike most male siblings, they had never gotten into a physical fight. Instead, they usually settled their disputes over a cup of tea.
While she is very motherly and domestic in nature, the show features recurring jokes about her poor cooking skills. Taylor's "arch enemy", so to speak, is the real-life home improvement specialist, Bob Vila. One episode sees Tim competing against Bob Vila in a lawnmower contest for charity.
In one episode where Tool Time is celebrating their fifth anniversary show, Al is shown in the first ever episode of Tool Time clean shaven, while Tim has a beard. Tim always thinks things need "more power" and is often seen wearing sweaters from Michigan-based colleges. He is also very connected to his tools, even once joking that when he dies he would like to be buried with them. It was said in "The Longest Day" that he was always the one with health problems out of his brothers. Jill said that he had asthma, and various other health problems. Randy's knack for jokes was also growing as a teenager, his jokes getting more ambitious, even sparking anger when the Colonel, his grandpa, died and he cracked death jokes.
YP advertisers receive higher placement in the default ordering of search results and may appear in sponsored listings on the top, side, or bottom of the search results page. Morgan Wandell – The new producer of Tool Time during the final season. He is interested only in ratings and is willing to go to any tawdry end to get them, including staging a Jerry Springer Show-like riot in the audience, and wanting Tim to stage more destructive accidents, which Tim is firmly against. Rather than let Wandell turn their show into "Trash Time", Tim, Al, and Heidi quit, but not before turning their final episode into a huge jam session, which became a ratings smash. His job now in jeopardy, Morgan offered Tim a big raise and an executive producer credit to stay on at the show, but Tim refused.
His mother is alive for the entire series; however, his father died when Tim was eleven years old. There has always been some disparity between how many brothers Tim has. On several occasions in the later seasons, it is mentioned that Tim has four brothers, but in earlier seasons he is stated to have five.
When he is fourteen years old he started dating a classmate and fellow writer of the school newspaper Lauren. Lauren was his one major relationship in the series, and it was threatened by a potential separation period when Lauren was picked to go on an environmental study to Costa Rica and Randy wasn't. However, a student pulled out and Randy took his place, their relationship successfully pulling through. As of the end of Season 8, their two year-old relationship is still active.

Art Leonard (Dick O'Neill) – Tim's old shop teacher who inspired him to enter the world of tools. "Mr. Leonard" is initially shown struggling with his fading dexterity. Milton – friend of Tim, often a guest on Tool Time; when he's around, people tend to make gay references, leading to him snapping, "Hey, I don't go for that sort of thing!".
In seasons seven and eight, Dunning's role on Tool Time became such that she was eventually given main cast billing in the opening credits. Al's struggles with relationships were a long-running plot point throughout the series. In season one, Al dated Greta Post, whom he met while she was volunteering to help out during a Tool Time show. Al then showed a brief interest in Jill's friend Karen, whom he met at an impromptu gathering at the Taylor home, but Karen had already accepted a date with another one of Tim's friends.
