Shropshire Gas Ltd in short

Shropshire Gas Ltd is a Wellington heating firm built for servicing and ongoing cover, with cover plans, installations and trade accreditations set out on a content-rich site. HETAS registration is on the issuing register, while Gas Safe membership and Ideal Max and Worcester Bosch installer status are stated on its own website. The company record is long and stable, active since July 2011 at the same Wellington address the site publishes. That combination of history and site detail is what sets this review apart.

The record shows a Wellington firm on Bridge Road working across Telford, Wellington and Shropshire, describing cover for thousands of local properties. The site sets out servicing, cover plans, installations, gas fireplaces and solid-fuel stoves beside Ideal Max and Worcester Bosch installer statuses, with HETAS registration on the issuing register. Phone, email and an enquiry form share the contact load, which fits a firm of this size.

The headline figure is 4.9 from 742 Google reviews, the deepest record in the round by a distance. That volume means recent boiler and cover-plan jobs can be read about before calling, which is exactly what this review leans on. Missing insurance detail is the gap, and it is what keeps this record in third.

Customer evidence is unusually deep, at 4.9 on Google from 742 reviews. What counts against Shropshire Gas Ltd is the missing paperwork: no insurance details are published, and no service or call-out figures appear. It suits servicing or ongoing cover from a long-trading local firm where feedback volume matters to you.
