For tradesmen, tools are an essential part of their daily working life. Whilst these tools can be extremely valuable in monetary terms, the loss of them could also have a big impact on a tradesman’s ability to get jobs completed on time. According to Simply Business, tool thieves in the UK are becoming more sophisticated, meaning there is a bigger urgency to have extra security measures in place.
