Blackwood IT provides managed IT support, cyber security and cloud services for businesses across Telford and Shropshire. We're based in Wolverhampton — 30 minutes down the M54 — which means fast on-site response alongside fully remote support during working hours.
Telford is one of the UK's largest new towns, with a diverse and active business community spread across its town centre, development corporation estates and the surrounding Shropshire market towns. Businesses here range from large manufacturers on Stafford Park and Hortonwood to professional services firms in Wellington and Newport.
Blackwood IT supports businesses across this range. We're based at Pendeford Business Park in Wolverhampton, roughly 30 minutes from Telford town centre along the M54. That proximity means we can be on-site quickly when something needs a physical fix, while handling the majority of day-to-day support remotely.
We take a different approach to most IT companies. Instead of waiting for things to break and reacting, we monitor your systems proactively, apply patches and maintenance regularly, and manage your suppliers directly. You get a dedicated account manager and a dedicated technical manager — people who know your business and take ownership of your IT properly.
From managed IT services and cyber security to Microsoft 365 and Azure, business connectivity and structured cabling, we handle everything under one roof — one bill, one team, one accountable partner.
Fast on-site response to Telford and all surrounding areas when engineers are needed in person.
Every client protected by Huntress managed detection and response — 24/7, not optional.
A dedicated account manager and technical manager for every client. Not a helpdesk rota.
Telford's manufacturing base is a sector we understand. Downtime costs money — we work to prevent it.
Our managed IT services in Telford go beyond a standard helpdesk. We take full ownership of your IT environment — monitoring systems around the clock, applying security patches, managing your suppliers and resolving issues before they affect your business.
For Telford businesses, that means a proactive partner based 30 minutes away via the M54 — close enough for fast on-site response, and experienced enough to handle everything remotely the majority of the time.
Everything your business needs from a single accountable IT partner — support, security, cloud, connectivity and hardware.
Proactive monitoring, user support, maintenance and supplier management for your whole IT environment.

Real feedback from businesses we support across the West Midlands and Shropshire.
"12 years ago we met with Blackwood IT to discuss our IT requirements as we were just setting up. 12 years later, we and Blackwood have grown, and our IT support has evolved with the times. We are now cloud based, migrated our telephone system to Blackwood's Cloud Phone service, and built a fully functioning app that has streamlined the business. Blackwood IT should rename to Ronseal — they do exactly what it says on the tin."
12-year relationship — cloud migration, VoIP and bespoke app development
"The level of support provided by Blackwood IT during my time working with the team has been the benchmark by which I will now measure all external service providers. From the most basic enquiries to keeping our business and its data safe — from a full specification of new servers to providing perfect connectivity solutions for our 5 divisions. The Blackwood team perfectly marry the small boutique service feel with the depth of knowledge of a much larger provider."
7-year relationship — servers, connectivity across 5 divisions, ongoing managed IT
"Blackwood IT have been our IT support provider since September 2023, quickly becoming an integral part of our infrastructure. Our previous IT support provider operated from a location distant from our main office. With Blackwood being Wolverhampton-based, we now enjoy personalised interactions that positively impact our day-to-day operations. We wholeheartedly recommend Blackwood IT to businesses seeking a trusted and comprehensive IT support provider."
