We hired Jesse Lindland to build our home on top of a former ski area in Plymouth New Hampshire in the southern tier of the white mountains. Jesse's quote was not the least expensive. In fact, it was higher than the two other quotes received. However, it was the most detailed and we felt more accurately reflected what the actual price to build would be. Jesse uses Internet tools and online applications that allows the customer to be fully engaged throughout the entire process. A Project Manager was assigned to our build. Steve was excellent. He became our partner and addressed any and all issues that surfaced along the way. This is for all potential customers that are considering a home build or major renovation for the first time: No project of this size executes flawlessly. Unexpected things arise. Our build was no different. That said, Outside In Construction addressed all the issues to our satisfaction. This is important. Our home was built during the pandemic. Despite supply chain delays (materials), our home was ready for occupancy just two weeks after the original promised date. That was amazing. There was another home being built around the corner from us. Those unfortunate future homeowners wound up firing their contractor in the middle of the build, then needed to sue him to get some money back. You won't have any contractual issues with Outside In Construction. They are professional and take pride in their work.

We added a breezeway and attached garage, starting in the spring of 2021 ending in spring of 2022. Outside In saved the day, taking the job over from the scammer who started it. OIC did everything but the foundation, having to remove what had been started. The end result is beautiful, high quality work. I would give them 5 stars, except for significant delays caused by their PM (no longer there), COVID related supply issues, and weather. I should have escalated concerns to the owner, Jesse (vs to PM) earlier, because when I did - he made things right ASAP. Great company that I wish I found sooner. I will definitely work with them again. Thank you, Jesse and Steve!

We hired OIC for demo/new build project. Overall, it went very well. Project was in the height of COVID lockdowns; supply chain issues, contractors employees not working full schedules, resulting in scheduling issues, and weather delays. Completion was delayed a few weeks but not bad considering the issues. Quality of construction was excellent. We are very happy with the house and would highly recommend Outside In Construction for a design/build project.

As always, the project went well.
Description of Work: Outside/In Construction was hired to replace a number of windows in our three story barn. We have used Jesse and his team on many projects over the last eight years of our relationship and we are very satisfied with his work and his knowledge of our complex property needs.

We have contacted this client and determined there was a miscommunication that caused this review rating - They have since tried to revised the rating and details, and been unable too because of the time that lapsed since it was entered and contact was made.

Description of Work: I hired them to do my kitchen over. I heard a radio ad that said all the things I wanted to hear. The work was acceptable but the customer service was not.Issues with the kitchen designer and the accountant. Watch your receipts carefully. Lots of mistakes. I found a $1300 mistake in HIS FAVOR and then he reduced a promised discount by $18.00!I saved him $1300 but it cost me $18.00. Never again.

Response from Outside In Construction
[Member Name Removed], I feel the impression your review gives is inaccurate, so I would like to both set the record straight, but also apologize for a couple valid concerns you did bring up. First, you are correct that there were issues with the kitchen designer. While the finished product worked out fine (You yourself wrote in an e-mail to me that you were “extremely happy with the outcome”), the process could have been notably smoother and we acknowledge that. Jesse, the owner of Outside In, has since had a meeting with her to discuss and resolve the cause of the difficulties that you were privy to. Though it doesn’t help you after the fact, things are being handled differently now by both us and the designer to prevent them from occurring again. I apologize that you experienced any issues at all, and I thank you for your part in bringing them to our attention so that we could fix them. Second, I want to address the financial aspect of your review. You are correct that I sent your final draw invoice without including the additional costs we incurred by the upgraded items you chose. As I have already communicated to you, I fully accept that was my responsibility, that it was an unfortunate oversight, and I apologized for it. I also expressed my appreciation for your bringing it to my attention. I could have handled what followed in a more appreciative manner, however, in relation to the discount. I feel your review gave the impression that we tried to be dishonest with you. That could not be further from the truth. It is important to note that the discount that was offered for the plumbing fixtures was based directly off of the order you were having us place. Because you reduced that order, the discount we were offered, and in turn offered to you, was reduced as well. That information was already in my figures before you noted that we had not billed you for your selection overage. When you sent me the breakdown of your calculations, I compared my numbers directly to yours, instead of revising my numbers as an act of appreciation. While my actions were not dishonest, I certainly could have shown more appreciation, and that is on me. Had you communicated your displeasure to me at any time I would have certainly handled it differently, though ultimately I should have regardless. So for that I do apologize. To help make up for that error, I am sending you a $200 cash card that you can do with as you please. This is what should have been done originally, so while late I hope it helps make up for my error. We greatly appreciated you as a client; you were fantastic to work for. I’m sorry that the last impression for you was not a good one. Thank you for your business, [Member Name Removed]. Jonathan Powell Outside In Construction

Description of Work: Partially repaired dry rot in basement. The job was not done in a way that sufficiently supported the structure and required redoing. I would not select them for future construction work.

Response from Outside In Construction
[member name removed], I was very surprised by your rating and comments... When we met at the end of the repairs project we completed from you at the house you were satisfied with the work and thanked us for a doing a good job. Additionally, we went above and beyond the scope of work that was agreed upon to do some other items on the basement level for you and completed added electrical/plumbing work that you had requested. The agreement was to replace some of the supports in the basement space that were rotted, we had discussed that the house was very old and there were many other items that would need to be done in the future, we completed what was agreed to and then some. I am sorry that you were not pleased with the work - However I am disappointed that you did not call/email me and let me know any concerns or issues that you had with us, as this is the first I have heard of this.

Description of Work: Near full home renovation, including kitchen, sunroof, family room, dining room, two bathrooms, loft, attic room and master bedroom. The work took several weeks longer than expected and the costs exceeded estimates but primarily due to existing conditions and some original poor construction within our 30 year old home. The work was done with a high level of quality and most components were at reasonable costs based on the quality of materials and workmanship. As with any older home renovation, the more details you can include in the original contract, the fewer surprises you will need to manage during the process. Overall, they did a great job, kept a well organized working environment and I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking these services.

Description of Work: Kitchen remodel, bathroom upgrade. Workers were unhappy, 3 quit during and after my job completed. There were some outstanding craftsmen . I had some problems after work completed which is still being rectified. Overall, I was happy but I think they have too many projects going at the same time. Everyone was very nice to work with.

Response from Outside In Construction
[Member Name Removed], Thank you for the review, however on the note of workers I think you are misinformed... Only one of the gentlemen that worked on your job site quit after he was done, it was not because of being unhappy, he simply decided he wanted to work for himself. No one else that worked there quit or left, so I am puzzled as to how you drew this conclusion? I cannot speak to the "mood" of my carpenters on your project... However there was more to the story here that is being revealed and I feel that it would be misleading to my future clients not to outline the reasons for workers being unhappy - This mostly pertains to the issues caused by the cabinet company, which caused you and I a good deal of grief during the project - Having said that, it was out of my control at that point... I have since met with the company owner and discussed the issues, I have been assured they will not happen again and additionally have now found another suppliers that I am working with; So that experience may be avoided in the future. On the note of items you are having rectified after the job is complete, there is only one that you have made me aware of; I jumped on that, paid for the replacement part out of pocket and have made sure to get it installed asap - I am perplexed as to what you are other items you are indicating? Since you have not told me there any other issues, I cannot resolve them... More to the point, any questions, issues or items that you needed instruction for we were sure to take care of immediately and you had even told me at the end of the project being the case. In summary - I am not trying to get on a soapbox and be overly defensive and I typically do not respond to reviews (as my clients make me aware of they have any questions or issues before hand) - However, I feel that what you voiced in your review is inaccurate and I want to make sure the record is straight Another concern I have now having read this, is the fact that none of these concerns and issues were brought to my attention at the end of the job when we sat down to review everything, schedule punch list and settle up on the project - In fact just the opposite, you indicated aside from the issues with the cabinet supplier you were very pleased with all of my staff, the work they did and even commented on how polite and pleasent the were to work with - So again, I am surprised to read your review... We don't claim to be perfect, we can make mistakes - However I feel considering the space we transformed for you, the dealings with the cabinet company that were difficult, your schedule and some other elements we did a very nice job and I assured we took very good care of you; As I do with all my clients, and I wanted to make sure that the items I feel are untrue here are notes, as I take great pride and put a lot of my time into assuring that my clients are always taken care of to the best of my abilities.

Description of Work: Outside in Construction designed and rebuilt our home in Alton Bay, NH. We had an old cape style cottage that was showing signs of decay. Jesse Lindland listened very carefully to the desires we wanted in our new home and designed a beautiful home. The old cottage was torn down in May 2012 and we moved into our beautiful 2 story home on December 15, 2012. The workers on the project were very professional and friendly any time we can to the site. Since the completion of our home, any issue we have had Jesse has responded quickly and professionally. We will definitely call upon Outside In Construction any time we have additional work needed.

I found "Outside In Construction" which was listed on Angie's List. There were no previous reports. I contacted the company, left a message, and was called the next day by Jesse, the son of the father/son business. As I live in CT, we arranged for a time in May where I could come to NH and meet with him to show what I thought was necessary. We met on the date and time arranged. I was immediatly impressed by the people's skills and construction knowledge of the son, who by my estimation, was between 25-30 yrs old. He was very thorough and articulate with his explanation of what he thought should be done and why, taking notes while talking. We parted, and within a day or so, sent me a clear electronic version over the internet as to what we had discussed along with the costs. I had gotten 2 quotes for the work needed and I decided to go with "Outside In Construction" making it clear that the work at the cottage needed to be done before renters arrived in August. Originally, the work was slated for the 2nd week of July, but due to poor weather throughout June and early July, it was delayed. Jesse's crew arrived in the 3rd week of July and were out the next week. The workers were great guys and meticulous about what was being done. All the material was removed, and the grounds were put back to order. We were very happy with the outcome and would have no reservations about using their services in the future.
Description of Work: Numerous repairs to a summer cottage: replacing outside door molding that had rotted out; removing and building new stairs that lead up to the deck; removing old wood that supported deck and railings, and putting in new footings; removing a 40 ft. section of rotted wooden fence that attached to a large retaining wall and building one to replace it; replacing rotted siding.
