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.

We consider owner, Jesse Lindland to be customer-oriented, very competent, to have excellent communication skills and most importantly is extremely responsive. OIC provides excellent quality, value and service to any home project and I can highly recommend them!

Outside/In Construction has done an OUTSTANDING job on each of the projects they have done for me. They provided me a very detailed job description for each project; they staffed each job with experienced carpenters; and they communicated with me constantly as they worked. The original decks and steps/landings to my dock were simple wood and 1st-generation Trex construction -- Outside/In converted this to very high-quality Trex, surrounded by great-looking LED lights. As for the hardwood floors -- well, the floor material was dark bamboo, and the end result is spectacular. These were all large jobs (total cost of well over $100,000), and the costs were managed very well. The largest projects were treated as fixed-price jobs, which meant that I would expect Outside/In to completely finish the job as described in the estimate, down to the last detail, with no additional costs. And they did so -- every time. Some of the jobs couldn't be estimated in advance (the rot repairs, for example), so we treated these jobs as Time & Material, which meant that the specific tasks would depend on what we found, and that I would pay costs as they occurred. And it turns out that this arrangement went very, very well -- primarily because the Outside/In carpenters communicated so well, and they were so good at recognizing and resolving problems. So, yeah -- if you want to get your job done -- and be very satisfied with the results -- I'd recommend this company. I have been very pleased with their work since day 1.

Jesse designed a home that was situated on a very steep slope. This upslope lot was extremely challenging. With the help of his qualified, experienced team, that continued to work during the harsh winter months, the challenges were not insurmountable. Jesse added volume and stability to the fondation by creating a walkout basement, with large windows and sliding-glass doors to admit daylight. The custom staircase added architectural appeal. Jesse designed the great room with an open floor plan facing the mountains. Additionally, the hard surface areas, such as driveways and roofs create runoff, but this was thoughtfully planned to have the runoff directed away from the foundation. Jesse spoon fed me every step of the way. He would respond immediately to any question. His dedication, artistry, professionalism, is one of a kind. The home is gorgeous! Thank you again for showcasing such beauty in a home. A plus!!!!!

OIC worked closely with us to address the kinds of surprises often encountered with a 100+ year old house renovation. They recommended creative solutions and did quality work. They brought this project in on budget and completed the work in just over 6 months. We have been enjoying the house for a little more than a year and are very happy with the results.

I have not one bad word, From starting with design through to finish we were kept in the loop and were part of the decision making process. Changes were made as needed and appropriate without any push back. Finances were handled in an open and honest manner. The attention to detail and providing top quality work was excellent. We have a beautiful new home, that after completion OIC continues to support the minor changes that are expected to occur once you are living in the house.

I have had several jobs done on my house by OIC. I had my cedar siding removed and replaced with Hardie Cement Board siding. The recommended Hardie process was followed on how to properly install the siding. I also had the cedar railings on my deck removed and replaced with composite railings. This also involved replacing trim deck boards. Another job was pine paneling my Great Room Ceiling. For all three jobs, the guys were very professional and accommodating of schedules They did a great job of cleaning everything up at night and at the end of the job.

The project went well and on time. All workers were skilled and the site was kept neat during the project. OSI has returned several times to accomplish even smaller jobs when requested. We would not hesitate to request their services again in the future.

When they started the project, it ended up being much worse than anticipated. Water damage was extensive. Parts of the main ceiling and a support beam had to be replaced. Skylights had been badly installed by prior owner. Both were replaced. OI worked with our home owner insurance. Adjusted the quote. Our insurance company was happy. We were happy. You would never know anything bad had happened in our vacation home. They did a quick and professional job. So happy with the work we hired them later that year to replace the electric heater in our bathroom. Another amazing job.

Great help in discussing design considering all options and which choices made the most sense. Work was done on time and very professionally. A ramp was also being installed a few houses away by another contractor and while functional, didn't come close to the quality and attention to details that we experienced. In fact, I made a recommendation to a local organization that serves disabled people. Their clients not only need ramps, but sometimes major remodeling.

The work went well. Everything was professionally done, and the finished product looks Excellent. The work space was isolated with plastic sheeting and an industrial air filter was kept running in the work space while work was underway. ( I saw a man sanding with a sanding-block in one hand, and a vacuum cleaner hose in the other) We were kept advised of what's going on tomorrow; what's going on next week, etc. The team cleaned up after each day's work; and a separate cleaning team came in on the last day. The work was completed on the day that was initially presented by the contractor.

There were some delays for which they did apologies. Most of our contact was through E-Mail. Phone and face to face contacts were professional and courteous.

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"

The crew was great. Fortunately, I didn't feel like I had to go apologize to my neighbors at all for having the crew out there, unlike some workers I have had in the past.
They were very helpful and went beyond the expectation.  To wit, I had repainted the walls in one of the rooms they replaced the ceiling in.  Not being as careful as I should have been, I bumped the ceiling with my roller.  Without prompting, the guys noticed it and just repainted that part of the ceiling.
The decks turned out great, and we have been enjoying them regularly since they were done.
Whenever any issues came up, they immediately fixed it and minimized our inconvenience.
The only downside I had with them was finishing up some minor stuff at the very end took longer than was hoped.  The work was still all done great, but with them being busy one thing slipped through the cracks for a while.  When reminded they did return and fix it, so all the work was done and I'm happy with it all.
Response from Outside In Construction
"[Member Name Removed] - Thanks again for the positive review and patience at the end. You were a great client to work for and we are very pleased that you folks are so happy with all the work - Hopefully you will get many years of enjoyment from the new deck!"

"[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."
