What is the code of the place tool:

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
    local Tool = script.Parent
    


Tool.Equipped:connect(function()
    mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
		local location = mouse.Hit.p
        local part = Instance.new('Part')
	part.Size = Vector3.new(2, 1, 2)
    part.Parent = workspace
    part.Anchored = true
    part.Position = location
    end)
end)

Positioning a part results in the part going on top of other parts. Simple fix: use CFrame I also changed mouse click to tool activated, as if the tool was equipped once, it would fire on every click after equipped once, even when not equipped.

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local Tool = script.Parent



Tool.Equipped:connect(function()
   Tool.Activated:connect(function()
        local location = CFrame.new(mouse.Hit.p)
        local part = Instance.new('Part')
	    part.Size = Vector3.new(2, 1, 2)
	    part.Parent = workspace
	    part.Anchored = true
	    part.CFrame = location
    end)
end)
