Communication is key – how we support you at each stage of your project

At Outside Interests, communication isn’t an afterthought, it’s built into our entire process. Whether it’s your first meeting with us or the final inspection, you’ll always have someone keeping you updated, informed and reassured.

Face to face where it counts

It starts with the survey. Your project manager comes to your home, measures the space, and walks through the proposed design with you.

“We don’t just send plans,” says project manager Jack Lerwill. “We hold a tape measure to show the customer exactly where a wall will end – in millimetres or inches – not everyone prefers metric! That way, the client can visualise it properly.”

Regular check-ins, clear updates

We always attend the first day of the build to check that our customers are happy and to introduce them to the tradespeople, then regularly pop in to check on how it’s going, as well as being there at sign-off to hand over the keys. We continue to communicate with our customers throughout the build either on-site, or by phone and email.

Knowing what to expect during your project

Part of good communications is helping you understand what to expect, especially around disruption. “Yes, it will be a building site for a bit, but we do our upmost to keep it as clean, tidy and as organised as it can be,” Jack says. “Our clients get the reassurance of knowing that our tradespeople are all highly professional. We speak regularly to our teams about how they represent the business so our customers can feel safe, respected and confident in our work.”

A team you can reach

With two dedicated project managers and a fully staffed office, as well as a showroom, customers have the peace of mind in knowing they always have someone to speak to. We are not just a van and a mobile number. Outside Interests has a well-established physical location with a team to support you.
