About Chubb Thomas
Independent Insurance Brokers You Can Trust
Doing Ordinary Things Extraordinarily Well
At Chubb Thomas, we believe insurance should be personal, straightforward and built entirely around you. As one of Dorset’s Leading independent insurance brokers based in Bournemouth, we’ve been helping individuals and businesses across the South find the right cover for decades — without the jargon, pushy sales or call centres.
We are proudly independent, meaning we’re not tied to a network or any one insurer. We will always recommend the right policy for you, not the one that’s most profitable for us. It’s insurance the way it should be; honest, clear and tailored to your needs.
A Long History of Personal Service
Chubb Thomas Insurance Brokers Ltd was formed in 2024 through the merger of two well-established, independent insurance firms in Dorset—Chubb Insurance, founded in 1982 based in Bournemouth, and Thomas & Co, founded in 1981 based in the Purbecks. The combined experience of both firms has built a strong reputation across the South Coast by offering tailored insurance advice, long-term relationships and honest, transparent service. Our shared ethos was simple: provide commercial and personal insurance that truly reflects each client’s requirements.
Combining our local heritage has allowed us to expand our resources while staying true to our core values. From our base in Bournemouth, we now serve clients across Dorset including Poole, Christchurch, Southampton, Portsmouth, Winchester, Salisbury, Dorchester, Weymouth and the wider region.
Today, Chubb Thomas continues to offer truly independent insurance broking and we are proud to be one of the leading independent insurance brokers in Dorset. We’re not part of a national chain and we’re not tied to any one insurer, offering professional advice and arranging bespoke cover for an individual to a multi-million-pound company.
Our approach is simple: we build long-term relationships based on trust, clarity and consistency. Every client is given a named contact and a personalised service with no call centres and no generic policies. We work entirely in your interest—not an insurer’s. Whether you’re insuring a car or a house, a single property, managing a portfolio, or arranging specialist commercial insurance, we focus on understanding your real-world risks and helping you make confident, informed decisions.
Expert Insurance Advice, Tailored to You
Whether you’re looking for personal insurance, commercial insurance or property insurance, we’ll take the time to truly understand your needs. No rushed quotes. No confusing small print. Just clear advice and cover tailored to your requirements.
When you work with Chubb Thomas, you’ll have one point of contact throughout—someone who knows your name, your policy and how to support you when it counts.
We believe good advice matters. That’s why we explain policies in plain English, highlight any gaps or exclusions, and only recommend what we genuinely believe is the right solution for you.
