Headsons Roofing in short
Headsons Roofing is a Wellington roofing company claiming decades of experience, with re-roofing, leadwork and guttering on its services list. Phone and email contact sit on the site, and the areas served run across Telford, Shrewsbury, Newport, Shifnal and Bridgnorth. The firm presents itself as a long-running local outfit rather than a new limited company, which suits readers who prefer established names. This review rates that long experience claim as the firm's clearest draw.
Customers rate the firm at full marks on Google across a mid-sized review base, and direct phone contact keeps the enquiry personal from the first call. What counts against Headsons Roofing, in our judgement, is blank paperwork: no insurance details, prices or VAT position are published, and no company record was found.
The Wellington firm serves Telford, Shrewsbury, Newport, Shifnal and Bridgnorth, a five-town patch stated plainly on its own pages [1]. Re-roofing, leadwork and guttering head the service list, with phone and email contact rather than a form [1]. The site claims decades of experience, presenting the firm as an established name rather than a new company [1].
Review evidence sits on a single Google listing with a mid-sized base, enough to show a pattern without proving one [2]. That middling depth matches the firm's plain presentation: direct contact, stated services, blank paperwork [1]. In our judgement the phone call matters more here than the profile, since the record offers little else.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Headsons suits you if you want a long-running Wellington roofer with full marks across 17 Google reviews [1] [2]. The site sets out its services and areas plainly with direct contact routes [1]. What counts against it is no published prices or insurance detail and no company record [1].

Questions about Headsons Roofing
Is Headsons Roofing any good?
On the evidence, it suits Wellington callers wanting an experienced local roofer: it sits ninth in our Telford table with full marks on a mid-sized Google base. The gaps are published cover, prices and a company record. Ask for proof of insurance and an itemised quote in writing.
Is Headsons Roofing registered with a roofing scheme?
No trade-scheme membership is on record: nothing was found on the registers, the firm's own site or the platforms we checked, so we show it as can't be sourced. If membership matters to you, ask the firm directly for proof of any scheme and check it yourself before booking.
What does Headsons Roofing charge?
No prices or VAT position are published on the site [1]. Call or email with the roof size and system and ask for an itemised written quote splitting labour, materials and VAT, plus proof of cover, before you agree anything.
Where does Headsons Roofing work?
The firm is based in Wellington and serves Telford, Shrewsbury, Newport, Shifnal and Bridgnorth [1]. Send your postcode with the job list when you enquire, to confirm you are covered and to agree who attends the survey and what it covers.

How do I get a quote from Headsons Roofing?
Call or email direct with the roof size, system and postcode, since contact runs phone-first with no quote form [1].

What do reviews say about Headsons Roofing?
Customers rate the firm at full marks on Google across a mid-sized base, enough to show a pattern [2]. A single listing of that depth proves less than the dual-source files above it, yet it beats the thinnest bases in the table. Read the listing for re-roofing and repair jobs, then confirm the decades claim against references you can check.
How does Headsons Roofing compare with the others in this round?
It sits ninth as the Wellington phone-first pick, an experienced local name over a thin website [1] [2]. Hills below it names rubber work from a live company record; Hornet above brings qualifications and round-the-clock call-outs. The gap is published cover, prices and any company record to check the experience claim against [1].
