Ferndown is a town in eastern Dorset, about 6 miles north of Bournemouth and 5 miles north-east of Poole, on the northern fringe of the south-east Dorset conurbation. The BH22 postcode covers the town itself, West Moors village to the north-west, and West Parley to the south. The housing stock in Ferndown is predominantly detached. Around 60 per cent of properties in BH22 are detached houses, which is significantly higher than the national average, and the town sits around the Ferndown Championship Golf Course with a strong older-owner demographic. Average house prices in BH22 run above the Dorset average at around £590,000. West Moors has a similar character, with large detached homes on generous plots in roads off the B3072. West Parley is more varied, with some smaller properties closer to the Bournemouth boundary.

Stone chip or crack repair is £152 to £337, depending on severity and access. Templating or measuring visit (if charged separately): Typically £127 to £253 in the BH22 area. Bournemouth and Christchurch businesses cover BH22 efficiently via the A348 and A31. Confirm whether templating is included when you first enquire.

Types of Materials found in Ferndown

The large detached properties around Ferndown Golf Course and in the premium roads of West Moors are a naturally strong quartz market. These are spacious kitchens, often with islands, and the owners tend to want a surface that requires no maintenance. Installed prices run from around £322 to £503 per square metre. Bournemouth and Poole based stone businesses cover BH22 as part of their wider south Dorset service area. Granite suits the BH22 market well. The detached houses and bungalows across Ferndown and West Moors frequently have generous kitchen layouts, and natural stone suits a well-proportioned country-style kitchen in a way that a standard house renovation quartz does not always achieve. Christchurch businesses in BH23 also cover BH22 and are worth contacting for granite projects. Installed granite costs between £302 and £482 per square metre. West Moors, in the BH22 0 sector, has some of the largest properties in the BH22 district. Plots here are generous, houses are typically 4 or 5 bedrooms, and the kitchen renovation budgets reflect this. West Parley, closer to the Bournemouth BH10 boundary, has a more varied housing mix but still supports a good stone worktop market in the larger detached properties.
