Al

Started the business initially as ‘South West Pole Barns’ in 2012. The business idea started after constructing his own bespoke outbuilding. As the business grew and the projects became more bespoke and varied, Al changed name to ‘Outbuild’ in 2016. Prior to starting the business, Al qualified as a carpenter and spent  6 years building timber frame houses for a large national housebuilder. Al enjoys getting to work outside in some beautiful rural locations. He married his better half Georgia in 2015 and has 2 young children Khione and Stanley. Outside of work he enjoys country pursuits and wakeboarding in summer months.
