A couple of things:-
good quality tools will fit the bolt head better than cheap ones - less chance of rounding.
use hex (6point) sockets where you can rather than bi hex (12point) - again less chance of rounding.
the open end of a spanner will do less damage to a corroded bolt head than the closed 12point
on stuck bolts a slight tightening before loosening sometimes works to free the corrosion but be gentle
