Shropshire Gas Ltd

Ranked 1 of 6 in Boiler installers in Telford

Active

Trading as SHROPSHIRE GAS LTD · Telford · Service area: Telford, Wellington, Shropshire

Our verdict

Our judgement: Shropshire Gas Ltd suits anyone wanting an established Shropshire firm with a wide service range and a long paper trail, from a 1979 founding claim to an active limited company [2][4]. The trade-off is paperwork: strong reviews and a detailed site, but no published insurance detail. Its website states Gas Safe accreditation [1]. Before booking, ask about the insurance position and get the quote in writing.
