Bryn Roberts

Ranked 9 of 10 in Plumbers in Telford

Sole Trader

Telford · Service area: Telford, Shropshire

Our verdict

Our verdict: the review volume and trading history count in his favour, but our judgement rests on two sources only — the Google listing and a thin one-page site [1] [2]. Confirm he takes on your job type, and ask for insurance details and a written quote before booking.

Composite score
59.3 / 100

Customer evidence C1 · weight 30%

70 out of 100

4.8 from 112 Google reviews, seen 3 September 2026 — one of the largest review counts in this round — supports 90, with recency unassessable from the snapshot [2].

Insufficient evidence

Trading history C4 · weight 10%

85 out of 100

The site states fully qualified plumber since 2003 and established 2003, about 23 years; with no Companies House record found, this rests on the provider's own claim [1].

Insurance and safeguards C5 · weight 10%

Insufficient evidence

Insufficient evidence

Pricing transparency C6 · weight 5%

40 out of 100

The site says affordable prices but publishes no call-out fee, rates, free-quote terms or VAT position, so this scores 40 [1].

Website and service information C7 · weight 5%

55 out of 100

The one-page site lists services, the Shropshire service area, weekday hours and a mobile number, but carries little detail beyond that, so this scores 55 [1].

Strengths

  • You see 4.8 from 112 Google reviews, seen 3 September 2026, which is one of the largest review counts in this round [2].

  • The website states fully qualified status since 2003 with weekday hours of 8am to 6pm and Saturday by appointment, plus a direct mobile number, so you know when and how to reach him [1].

Limitations

  • The site publishes no insurance details, no prices and no registration with any trade scheme [1]. Insurance is scored as insufficient evidence rather than as a failing.
