    So happy with the wallpapering from Shaun. He turned up when promised and did such a good job we booked him again to wallpaper our living room feature wall . He has now done this too and we are so pleased with the result ! Would highly recommend Shaun and will keep his number for future projects. Thanks

    Excellent Service and Would Recommend

    Posted 05 November

    Excellent service. Estimate for the work provided and within 2 working days and the estimate the work was started and completed. I had numerous small jobs to be done and they were completed professionally. The gentleman even fixed a problem with my gate without being asked and without requiring any additional payment. I would not hesitate to use Gems Building and Maintenance Services in the future.
