“We instructed Richard at Gemstock to assist us with a dilapidations claim, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service he provided. Richard was incredibly diligent and helpful throughout the process. He prepared a comprehensive and professional schedule outlining all necessary repairs and associated costs, and he dealt with the other side, and their surveyor, in an efficient and constructive manner. His expertise and negotiation skills were instrumental in reaching a favourable settlement. I highly recommend Richard and look forward to working with him again in the future.”

Saqib Butt, Star Land Estates Limited

“4 Pines Property Investments Ltd (4PPI) used the services of Richard Wood from Gemstock to carry out a Schedule of Dilapidation of a commercial property leased to tenant in Plymouth. It’s understated to say that without his help, guidance, expertise in this field and professionalism we would not have achieved a very substantial dilapidations agreement. This helped us secure a new lease agreement. We highly recommend his services.”

Keith MacGregor, 4 Pines Property Investments Ltd

“Richard from Gemstock was very knowledgeable, exceptionally helpful, professional, and very responsive to our needs, which was exactly what you need when dealing with property matters.”

Tony Howard, Commercial Client

“Richard was fantastic from tender to completion. The whole project was an easy and slick process, and provided us with a very detailed Schedule Of Conditions. Five Rivers Child Care would use again!”

Daniel Heath, Five Rivers Child Care

“Our neighbour had concerns regarding a party wall matter for an extension in our garden. With care and navigation from Richard at Gemstock, we ended up with the result we wanted. Very happy and would recommend Gemstock Chartered Surveyors.”

Martin Allen, Residential Client in Plymouth
