Water Softeners in Dorset

If you live in Dorset, chances are your water is hard. Really hard. Most of the county sits on chalk and limestone, which means water picks up calcium and magnesium as it moves through the ground. The result? Limescale on taps, dull laundry, dry skin after showers, and kettles that fur up within weeks.

We’ve been helping Dorset homeowners deal with hard water for over 25 years. Based locally, we know the water conditions in every part of the county — from the 290+ PPM readings around Bournemouth and Poole, to the slightly softer (but still hard) supply around Dorchester and Weymouth.

What We Do

We supply, install and maintain water softeners from brands we trust: Kinetico, Harvey, Infinity and TwinTec. Every home is different, so we start with a free survey to work out which system suits your property, your water usage and your budget. Most installations are done in a single visit, usually in under four hours.

We also fit drinking water filters, Quooker boiling water taps, and offer a regular salt delivery service right across Dorset. Once your softener is in, we handle annual servicing and any repairs if something ever needs attention.

Where We Cover

Our engineers are out across Dorset every day. We regularly work in Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Wimborne, Ferndown, Verwood, Blandford Forum, Dorchester, Weymouth, Swanage, Shaftesbury and Sherborne — plus everywhere in between.

What Our Customers Say

“Southern Softflow’s response to my call for help was amazing, from Edith in the office, Keith the boss man to Will the plumber who worked so hard and did a first class job. A truly great personal service not found easily these days. My heartfelt thanks to them all !”

“Moving home to an area with very hard water, I decided it was time to install a water softener. After research, I chose Southern Softflow, who offered exactly the reassurance and expertise I was seeking. Decision to installation took two days. Installation itself took a little over two hours, was carried out neatly, efficiently, and professionally. The new tri-flow drinking tap looks great in the kitchen, and even though I’ve used Brita filters for years, tea already tastes noticeably better after only 12 hours. Many thanks to Ben, Will, and the team, greatly appreciated. A full 10 out of 10.”

“The service from start to finish was exceptional. Very skilled and knowledgeable plumbers, nothing was too much bother, brilliant receptionist, everything fitted well and explained along the way, went above and beyond - even reinstalled and adapted the cupboard around the new water softener and left us a box full of gifts and goodies! A pleasure to deal with such a great team, we highly recommend them.”

“We recently had Southern Softwater visit our home to walk us through the available options, and the experience from start to finish was excellent.The initial consultation was clear, informative, and pressure-free. They took the time to understand our needs, explained the different systems in a straightforward way, and answered all of our questions patiently. It felt like they genuinely wanted to help us make the right decision rather than just make a sale.The installation process was just as impressive. The installer arrived on time, was extremely professional, and worked efficiently while keeping everything tidy. He explained how the system works, made sure everything was set up perfectly, and left the area clean once the job was complete.Overall, we’re delighted with both the service and the product. It’s rare to find a company that delivers such a smooth and professional experience from consultation through to installation. Highly recommended.”

“Brilliant service. Survey done clear explanation of product from Ben. Fitting done three days later. Very helpful and tidy technician. Added a hard water tap at the last minute no problem. Would highly recommend the service and product. Thanks guys!”

“We've had fantastic service from Southern Softflow from initial enquiry through to installation and beyond. This is our first water softener (TwinTec S5) and we can't fault it (we wish we'd installed one years ago). Southern Softflow's friendly and accommodating service is what set them apart from other companies that quoted. There was no pressure to place an order, and they were very accommodating, as this softener was purchased during a renovation of the whole downstairs, including new kitchen, bathroom & plumbing throughout, so they had to coordinate with our plumber and fit in around other trades. Competitively priced. Fantastic product. Excellent service. I highly recommend Southern Softflow.”
