Simmonsigns Ltd review

Assessed in Sign makers in Telford

Active

Trading as Simmonsigns Limited · Telford · Service area: Telford

Simmonsigns Ltd in short

Simmonsigns Ltd is a Stafford Park factory designing and manufacturing road-traffic safety products, from crossing lights and sign lighting to a solar range. Stated manufacture going back forty years makes it the longest-trading maker in the round. Our view is that this is a trade manufacturer for highways and facilities buyers rather than a shop-sign maker for residents. A contact route is published for trade enquiries.

Customer reviews stand at 3.8 from 10 Google ratings, the weakest base in the round, and the offer serves trade buyers rather than households. The company record is long and checkable, and the Stafford Park factory base is long established. Against Simmonsigns Ltd: trade-only positioning, no published prices and the low review base, which sit it outside the ranked table.

Questions about Simmonsigns Ltd

Is Simmonsigns Ltd any good?

For highways and facilities buyers, yes on paper: a Telford factory with decades of manufacture behind it. For a shopfront or van, look elsewhere: Simmonsigns Ltd serves trade buyers and holds 3.8 from 10 Google reviews. Check you are briefing the right kind of maker, and phone the Stafford Park factory about your specification.

Is Simmonsigns Ltd a member of a trade body?

None is shown anywhere we looked: trade membership can't be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked, so the table shows Can't be sourced. Sign making has no mandatory register, so there is no licence number to confirm. Type the company name into the trade body's member search yourself, and ask the firm directly what it holds.

What does Simmonsigns Ltd charge?

It publishes no prices, rates or VAT terms on the pages opened. Send your specification and volumes, and ask for a written quote naming products, lead times, delivery and VAT before you commit to anything. Ask for samples or product data sheets with the quote.

Where does Simmonsigns Ltd work?

It was assessed in our September 2026 Telford sign-maker round but sits outside the published top ten on score, so it carries a full scorecard without a table place. The same evidence tests applied. Use the Claim a listing route on the page to send detail for the next round.
