The partnership is designed to safeguard tradespeople across Britain from the unexpected with smart, digital insurance solutions tailored to every type of trade.

These solutions include covers such as public liability insurance, employers' liability insurance, contract works cover, tool insurance, accident and illness cover, and more.

Research from Superscript revealed one of the biggest challenges for trades is tool theft. 53% of the tradespeople we asked said replacing their tools, if stolen, would cost them over £2,000. For one in four tradespeople (22%) this estimate doubles to over £4,000.

Henry Newby, partnerships director at Superscript, said: “Toolstation is one of the fastest growing suppliers of tools and building supplies in the UK, and we’re excited to be adding insurance to their offering for the first time.

“With this partnership, Toolstation Club members will benefit from the support of our clever tech and expert team to get the right cover for their business, fast, online or offline. Our unique digital offering allows trades to pick the right cover for their needs – and make changes as they grow, whether that’s expanding their team or taking on new jobs. And if things go wrong, our “excellent”-rated claims team is there to help them get back to business fast.

“Through this partnership, Toolstation is building on its already strong foundations as the go-to destination for everything a tradesperson needs to run their business.”

Customers can benefit from the insurance through the Toolstation Club platform. After signing into the Club, they can access the insurance offering on the rewards page. By sharing some simple details about their business, they will be able to secure an insurance quote.
