Trading as P JOHNSON PLANT LIMITED · Telford · Service area: Telford

P Johnson Plant Limited in short

P Johnson Plant Limited is an Ercall Heath civil engineering and demolition firm behind a limited company formed in 2017. The single-page site names its services with an address, phone, email and company numbers, but no hours or service-area detail. No trade accreditations are named anywhere checked. P Johnson Plant reads as a small plant-owning outfit, in our opinion.

Customer reviews run to a single five-star Google rating, which proves almost nothing either way. The serious caveat sits on the company record: Companies House shows an active proposal to strike off with accounts overdue, seen in early September. What else counts against it is the thin single-page website with no prices or insurance detail. Our review finds a firm to approach with caution.

Our verdict

Our judgement: P Johnson suits you if you want a small civil engineering and demolition outfit in Telford that puts its company numbers on its site [1]. What counts against it is the strike-off proposal on the company record and the thin single-page website. Its one Google review is five stars [2] [3].

Questions about P Johnson Plant Limited
