About Us
You know how it goes: you kick off a fit-out project, and before you know it, things start to go wrong.
Suddenly, your contractor is telling you they don’t have the right information, and if they don’t get it by a certain date, you’re looking at an extra four weeks added to the timeline, each costing thousands in prelims.
That’s tens of thousands you weren’t planning to spend. It’s frustrating, and it’s avoidable. We knew there had to be a better way to do things.
Let me take you back to 2013…
My dad, James, and I were running a joinery workshop, and while we enjoyed the craft, we saw far too many projects fall apart—not because of the work itself, but because of poor planning and lack of communication.
We realised we could make a real difference, not just with our hands but with our heads, by managing projects from start to finish in a way that kept everyone on track and on budget.
That’s when we decided to launch Diverse Projects, with the simple goal of making your experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Our approach is different because we don’t just follow the usual steps; we work backwards.
By starting with the end in mind, we figure out exactly what needs to happen, when, and by whom. It’s a method that helps us avoid those nasty surprises that derail projects and inflate costs.
Instead, you get a project that runs like clockwork, with no unnecessary delays or expenses.
Architects, consultants, and design teams like working with us because we’re not just waiting for things to go wrong—we’re actively working to make sure they don’t.
We collaborate closely, thinking ahead to solve problems before they arise. We’re not here to shift blame or make excuses; we’re here to ensure your project goes off without a hitch.
The values that drive us come from something that’s stuck with me since I was a kid. When I was younger, I did Taekwondo, and my instructor, a fierce five-foot-tall woman, would yell at us: “You’ll only ever get out what you put in.”
That’s something I’ve carried with me ever since. Honesty, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and an indomitable spirit—these are the principles I learned in that dojo, and they’re the principles that guide how we run Diverse Projects today. We’re here to put in the hard work, build long-term relationships, and deliver the quality you deserve.
Our team is highly experienced, with a core group of dedicated professionals who share a commitment to excellence. Led by myself, with Lynsey overseeing the financial side, we ensure every project is handled with precision and care.
We also have a trusted network of subcontractors who have been with us for years. Together, we’re dedicated to ensuring your project is delivered on time, on budget, and to the highest standard.
Whether you’re tackling a high-end fit-out or a bespoke build, we focus on taking the stress out of the process for you. We handle the details, so you can focus on what matters most, knowing your project is in safe hands.
And if you’ve worked with us before, you know we’re in it for the long run. For us, it’s not just about this project; it’s about building a relationship that lasts.
Looking ahead, my vision for Diverse Projects is to be known as one of the best fit-out contractors in Scotland. But more importantly, I want to keep earning the trust of clients like you—people who appreciate a job done right, without the usual headaches.
