wide brush / flat brush

Although you are talking about construction, it is not clear if you are referring to painting work, but as Francisco says you are obviously talking about brushes, although in the translation you need to specify that it is a flat brush. There are different widths and lengths of course, when it is quite big, I think it is best to say wide brush.

There are also flat brushes for artistic purposes of course, and they get more complicated names the more specialized yo get.

brush, paintbrush

Por la descripción que haces, y por la documentación que tengo, creo que creo que te refieres a lo que por aquí llamamos "brocha". Para este término, yo utilizaría "brush" o "paintbrush" :-)
Echale un vistazo a estos dos links que te paso, espero que te sirvan de ayuda. Un saludo, Viv.
