About Us

Construction company in York with over 25 years of experience

GEM employs a dedicated team of professionals, including experienced project managers, site managers, quantity surveyors, and highly skilled heritage tradespeople such as stonemasons and joiners.

The key to our success is the skilled team of people that we employ. Many of the team have been working with us for more than ten years and we have developed a company culture of a strong work ethic, high integrity and standards and dedication to ensure the customer always receives 100% quality, commitment and service.

We are proud to be accredited members of CHAS and have won the Lord Mayor’s Award at the York Design Awards in 2014 for the sensitive conversion of The Star Inn the City and in 2015 for The Garden House, a two bedroom property on a historic site in the grounds of York Minster.

More recently, our work has been recognised with three RIBA Regional Awards and a RIBA National Award in 2022 for The Alice Hawthorn in Nun Monkton.
