There is always huge debate on whether automatic tools are better than traditional manual tools. Whilst many value the tremendous skill encouraged by using manual tools, there are many reasons to consider the benefits of automatic tools by saving time and money.

There is no doubt we're working harder and the demands of the construction industry are increasing, meaning we need to get more done in less time. Tool manufacturers have been recognising this and are continuously designing and creating innovative tools that not only help us get the job done faster, they get the job done to a high specification.

Automatic tools offer so many benefits including allowing less skilled labourers to get the job done to a high specification, which can mean cheaper labour and the ability to get the job done quicker,
