Sure Fire Gas Services in short
Sure Fire Gas Services is a Telford heating engineer run by Richard Peacock, covering boiler servicing, repairs, installs and cylinder work across Telford and Shrewsbury. Leak-finding near boilers and cylinders is where it fits this round, with Gas Safe registration and full cover both stated on its own site. The trade record spans gas and heating work only, so leak-finding here means leaks at boilers and cylinders rather than buried supply pipes.
Customers rate Sure Fire Gas Services at 5.0 from 30 Google reviews, a clean but modest base. No other review source is on record, so this review reads the Google figures as promising rather than deep. Free quotations keep the first step simple. The base is modest for a high-placed firm, so the stated registration and cover do quiet work in this profile.
What counts against it is paperwork: the site publishes no rates, call-out fee, VAT position or company incorporation detail. Our verdict is that it suits boiler or cylinder-linked leaks from a named engineer, with the free-quotation route keeping the start simple.
That makes Sure Fire Gas Services the boiler owner's choice in this round, pairing cylinder and heating cover with leak-finding where it matters. The named engineer and the stated cover give the profile a personal feel the bigger outfits lack. Review depth is the honest caveat, and the quotation costs nothing to request. The headline promise is written plainly, without the hedging that clutters bigger sites.
Our verdict
Our verdict: Sure Fire Gas Services suits you if you want boiler or cylinder work from a named engineer with stated registration and insurance [1]. The review base is small at 30 ratings. Published prices are the missing piece. The free-quotation route keeps the first step simple [1].

What do customers say about Sure Fire Gas Services?
A clean sheet at full marks across a modest count of Google ratings: promising rather than deep. No second source is on record.
