Shropshire Gas and Heating in short

Shropshire Gas and Heating is a Bratton family firm covering boiler install, repair and servicing alongside gas fires and cookers, landlord and home-mover checks and emergency call-outs, with costs agreed before work starts. Reviews are spotless, at five stars on Google, which is why this review places it near the top. Gas Safe registration is stated on its site in general terms with no number to check. The honest complication is the company picture: the firm-name limited company was dissolved, while a similarly named active company shares the address but is much younger.

The record shows a Bratton family firm working from Telford across Shrewsbury, Stafford and Wolverhampton, with boiler installs, repairs and servicing beside gas fires, cookers and landlord checks. Emergency call-outs sit on the same site as home-mover checks, and costs are stated to be agreed before work starts. The phone line is the front door: the site is small and functional rather than deep.

The headline figure is 5.0 from 55 Google reviews: spotless, and strong evidence for a firm of this size. We rate the scope and the rating as the reasons it sits second, with the mixed company record the reason it sits no higher. The review behind that rank is simple: excellent feedback, with the company paper as the open question.

The 55 Google reviews behind Shropshire Gas and Heating are strong customer evidence for a small firm, and we include it on ratings rather than company clarity. What counts against it is that unresolved company record, plus a thin site with a dated footer. It suits smaller boiler and landlord jobs where you can meet the engineer first and judge the work face to face.

Our verdict

Our judgement: contactable and reviewed, but harder to place on paper than others here, so suit it to smaller jobs where you can meet the engineer first. We include it on ratings rather than company clarity [5].

Industry qualifications

Sourced from the issuing registers, the business's own website and platforms such as Checkatrade and Which? Trusted Traders, on the date shown.

Strengths

  • A 5.0 rating from 55 Google reviews, seen 3 September 2026, is good customer evidence for a small firm [5].

  • The site is clear about scope: boiler install, repair and servicing, gas fires and cookers, landlord and home-mover checks and emergency call-outs, with costs agreed before work starts [1].

Limitations

  • The company picture is mixed: the firm-name limited company (13343141) was dissolved in August 2022, while a similarly named active company at the same address dates only from March 2024, so we cannot confirm the trading entity and history is insufficient evidence [2][3].

Questions about Shropshire Gas and Heating

Is Shropshire Gas and Heating any good?

On the evidence, yes for boiler and landlord jobs: it sits second in our Telford gas engineers table with five stars on Google from 55 reviews, and its site names installs, repairs, servicing, fires, cookers and landlord checks. The company record is mixed, so it suits smaller jobs. Meet the engineer first and agree costs before work starts.

Is Shropshire Gas and Heating Gas Safe registered?

Gas Safe registration is stated on its own website in general terms, with no licence number printed [1]. That statement met our assessment requirement, but there is nothing to cross-check online. Ask for the registration number when you call. Get it in writing before work starts. That gap is why everything here turns on the number you are given when you call.

How much does Shropshire Gas and Heating charge?

Costs are stated to be transparent and agreed before work with no hidden charges, but no call-out fee, rate or fixed price is published [1]. Work is stated to be guaranteed. Ask for the fixed figure and the guarantee terms together. Get both in writing before you agree anything. Name every appliance on the call so the fixed figure means something.

Where does Shropshire Gas and Heating work?

The family firm works from Bratton across Telford and nearby towns including Shrewsbury, Stafford and Wolverhampton [1]. Send your postcode with the job when you call. Confirm you are covered before you agree a visit. Check the full page for the list of towns before you enquire. Villages past the named towns are worth checking rather than assuming.

How is Shropshire Gas and Heating ranked?

It ranks second of the seven gas engineers in our September round, carried there chiefly by its customer rating and clear scope. The mixed company record is what keeps it off the top spot. Read the full review, then meet the engineer before you commit. Clear scope and availability did the rest of the work.

How do I get a quote from Shropshire Gas and Heating?

Call with the job, the appliance and your postcode, and agree the figure before work starts, since the site states transparent costs but publishes no rate card [1]. Ask for the fixed price and the guarantee terms in the same message. Meeting the engineer first suits smaller jobs here. Bring photos of the appliance and the flue route.

What do customers say about Shropshire Gas and Heating?

Customers give it five stars on Google from 55 reviews with no blemish in the set, which carried it to second place in our table [5]. The accounts describe boiler and landlord work from a family outfit. Read the recent run yourself and set it beside the mixed company record.
