Choosing a roofer is one of the most important decisions a homeowner can make. Your roof protects everything beneath it — yet many people in Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole still fall victim to poor workmanship, short-term fixes, or unreliable contractors.

At J Janes Roofing, we’ve worked across the BCP area for many years and regularly repair roofs that should never have failed in the first place. This guide explains how to choose a trusted local roofer and what to look out for.

✅ 1. Choose a Roofer With Proven Local Experience

BCP homes face unique coastal conditions:

Strong winds
Driving rain
Salt air corrosion

A roofer used to working inland may not understand these issues. A local roofer with experience in Poole, Bournemouth and Christchurch will know which materials and methods last longest in this environment.

👉 J Janes Roofing has completed projects across:

Poole & Canford Heath
Bournemouth & Boscombe
Christchurch & surrounding areas

✅ 2. Look for Real Reviews & Local Projects

Always check:

Google reviews
Photos of completed work
Local addresses mentioned in feedback

Be cautious of companies with no local footprint or generic stock images.

✅ 3. Avoid Door-to-Door Roofing Offers

Reputable roofers do not rely on cold calling. Many emergency repairs we carry out in BCP are caused by rushed or unnecessary work sold at the doorstep.

✅ 4. Ask About Inspections & Evidence

Professional roofers will:

Inspect the roof properly
Explain the issue clearly
Provide photos or drone footage where required

At J Janes Roofing, we often use drone roof inspections so customers can see the condition of their roof without climbing ladders or guesswork.

✅ 5. Get Clear Written Quotes

A proper quote should include:

Scope of work
Materials
Timescales
Guarantees
