Wherever you go, fully cover the value of the tools because, in a claim, your claim would be reduiced proportionately.  i.e. on;ly cover half the value and they only pay half the claim

That is a terrible deal.

I pay just over 100 pounds with 5000 pounds tools coverage.

I contacted a broker via here and they arranged Noriwch Union to cover me seperate to my van insurance.

I asked them to look at the price again as I had a quote that was £60+ cheaper. They were able to give me a final price of £299 for £6:500 of cover. It pays to haggle. I`m of to Tenerife to ease my way through December (-:
