Who we are

Who we are and where we work

We are a local roofing and building company covering Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch and the surrounding Dorset towns. Homeowners, landlords and property managers.

The work ranges from a single slipped tile to a full roof replacement, and from a room skim to brickwork, rendering, loft insulation, a new driveway or an extension. Because one company quotes and answers for the lot, a job that touches three of them is still one job, with one price and one point of contact.

We would rather tell you a repair will do than sell you a replacement. If a job is not one we should be doing, we will say so.

  • One written quote for the whole job
  • One company for all your building needs
  • Our written terms set out exactly what happens if something fails
  • An itemised written quote, and a photo and a price before any extra work
  • A verified Checkatrade 10 out of 10

Who runs it

Thomas Hannen owns the firm and prices every job

The person who comes out and writes your quote is the person who owns the business and answers for the work.

Bournemouth Roofing & Building is owned by Thomas Hannen. He looks at every job and prices it himself, line by line, so scaffold, materials, labour and waste are separate and you can see what each part costs. If anything on the quote is unclear, he is the one to ask, and he is the one who has to stand behind it.

The company is Bournemouth Roofing & Building Ltd, registered in England and Wales, company number 15471719. It trades from 80a Wolverton Road, Boscombe, Bournemouth BH7 6HX, which is also the address on our Google Business Profile.

The trades are roofing, including flat roofs, chimneys, fascias and guttering; plastering and rendering; bricklaying and repointing; loft and wall insulation; driveways and patios; and exterior cleaning.

You do not have to take our word for any of it. The gallery of recent projects is real jobs of ours, photographed on site, and the reviews page has what customers wrote afterwards on Google and Checkatrade, in their own words.

…Tom and Lloyd were both lovely, really knowledgeable and kept us updated throughout, which was reassuring…

One Company, One Number

What one company for the whole job means in practice

"One company for all your building needs" sounds like a slogan. Here is what it means in practice on a real job.

One Quote, One Contact

A leaking roof that has damaged a ceiling needs the roof and the ceiling put right. You get one written quote covering both, and one point of contact, with Thomas Hannen pricing it and answering for it.

We Run the Schedule

Separate contractors have to be booked around each other, and a week's delay on the first one pushes everything back. With one quote for the job, the order of the stages is agreed at the start, so the render follows the brickwork and the drive goes down once the scaffold is off.

Nobody To Blame It On

If something is not right, there is nobody to blame it on. One number to call, one company responsible for the whole job, and no arguments over whose part of the work caused the problem.

Check us before you book: ask for our written terms and we will send them. We are Bournemouth Roofing & Building Ltd, company number 15471719, registered in England and Wales, which you can check yourself in under a minute.

Our Reach

The towns and villages we cover

Bournemouth and the surrounding Dorset towns. If you are just outside this list, ring and ask. We will tell you straight whether we can get to you.

Bournemouth

Our home patch, and where the business is based. Everything from Victorian terraces and converted flats to post-war semis and seafront properties taking the weather off the sea.

Poole

Roofing, rendering and driveways right across Poole. Coastal exposure here means salt, wind and moss, so roofs and render need checking more often than inland.

Roofers in Poole

Christchurch

Repairs, re-roofs and brickwork throughout Christchurch. Plenty of older stock where matched materials and lime mortar matter more than the cheapest fix.

Roofers in Christchurch

Wimborne

Period and heritage property is common here. We repoint in lime mortar where the wall needs it and match brick and stone rather than patching with whatever is nearest.

Roofers in Wimborne

Ferndown

Mostly newer detached and bungalow stock. Loft insulation upgrades, flat roof replacements over garages and extensions, and block paved or resin driveways.

Roofers in Ferndown

Ringwood

On the edge of the New Forest, with a lot of tree cover. Blocked valleys, moss growth and shaded roofs that green over quickly are what the roofs there need most.

Roofers in Ringwood

Verwood

Full building work as well as roofing, extensions, garden walls, rendering and patios. Far enough out that it is worth asking whether a firm covers it. We do.

Get in Touch

How to get in touch

Ring about a leak, a price or anything else on the house, or send the details in writing. Either way the enquiry comes straight to Bournemouth Roofing & Building, and the first step is a free site visit.

Photos of the problem are genuinely useful. Send them by email and we can often tell you roughly what you are dealing with before we come out.

Who you are dealing with

A local firm you can check

We cover Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch and the Dorset and Hampshire towns around them, from Blandford Forum, Wimborne, Ferndown, Verwood and West Moors across to Broadstone and Corfe Mullen, down to Wareham and Swanage, and out to Ringwood, New Milton and Lymington.

You are dealing with Bournemouth Roofing & Building, the trading name of Bournemouth Roofing & Building Ltd, registered in England and Wales, company number 15471719. That takes a minute to check. The company was incorporated on 7 February 2024, and the Companies House register lists Thomas Antony Hannen as its sole director, with his identity shown as verified on his officer record. Thomas owns the firm and he prices every job himself, so the person who quotes it is the person answerable for it. You get one written quote and one point of contact for the whole job.

There is a verified customer's 10 out of 10 on our Checkatrade profile. The site visit is free and so is the written itemised quote. Scheduled work runs Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm. For anything urgent, ring rather than use the form, and if we cannot pick up we ring you back as soon as we can.
