TL Steelworks (Dorset) Ltd is at Unit 2, Bessemer Close, Ebblake Industrial Estate, Verwood, Dorset, BH31 6AZ. The 15,000 sq ft workshop handles detailing, fabrication, painting and dispatch. Call 01202 285449 or 07938 826490 before travelling, so we can have your order ready.
Ebblake Industrial Estate sits on the eastern side of Verwood, close to the Dorset and Hampshire border and within easy reach of the A31. Bessemer Close is one of the estate roads; Unit 2 is our fabrication facility, not a trade counter, so it is always worth a call before you set off.
Verwood is roughly central to the area we work in: Ferndown and Ringwood are close, Wimborne and Bournemouth are a short run down the A31, and Poole, Christchurch and Southampton are all comfortably within reach. You can see the full list on our areas we cover page.
For quotations, send drawings or project details through the form above, or use our contact page.
From the A31 eastbound or westbound — Verwood is signed from the A31 in the Ringwood and Ashley Heath area. Follow signs for Verwood and Three Legged Cross, then pick up Ebblake Industrial Estate on the eastern side of the town.
From Ferndown and West Parley — the shortest run of any of the towns we serve, roughly fifteen minutes.
From Wimborne and Colehill — north-east across country or out to the A31 and back in, depending on traffic.
From Poole, Bournemouth and Christchurch — north on the A349 or A338 to the A31, then west.
From Southampton and the M27 — west along the M27 and A31 through the New Forest.
Detailed turn-by-turn directions pages for each town are being added. In the meantime, the map above will route you from wherever you are.
This is a working fabrication facility rather than a shop, so a few practical points:
Call ahead. Ring 01202 285449 before travelling. For some structural steelwork, same-day or next-day collection may be available, but confirming avoids a wasted journey.
Bring the right vehicle. Steel is heavy and often long. Tell us the section length when you order and we will tell you honestly whether it will go on a roof rack or needs a flatbed.
Site safety applies. It is an active workshop with lifting operations in progress. Follow the directions you are given on arrival.
Delivery is often the better option. We deliver across Dorset, Hampshire and the south of England, and can stagger deliveries where a site has nowhere to store a full load.
Because of where it sits rather than what it is.
Verwood is close to the Dorset and Hampshire boundary with quick access to the A31, which is the spine of this part of the south coast. From the estate, the A31 opens westward towards Wimborne, Bere Regis and Dorchester, and eastward towards Ringwood, the New Forest and the M27 into Hampshire.
That has two practical effects. First, the towns we serve most heavily — Ferndown, Wimborne, Poole, Bournemouth, Christchurch — are all reachable without crossing a congested urban centre. Second, a site visit is a short trip rather than a day’s commitment, which is why we survey routinely instead of treating it as an extra.
Being outside the conurbation also means workshop space is measured in thousands of square feet rather than square metres, which is what allows detailing, fabrication and painting to sit in one building.
One customer summed up the working relationship simply: “Their attention to detail and on-time delivery really impressed us.”
Because all of that sits in one building, a change to a drawing does not have to travel between three companies before it reaches the saw. That is the single biggest practical reason clients across areas we cover across Dorset and Hampshire keep coming back.
