About Jerry

One point of contact

Jerry Butling – the co-owner of the PlayAhead – is the man that will be your main point of contact throughout the design, build and installation of your outdoor play equipment.

Before joining his father, Dick, to run PlayAhead, Jerry spent years working in a medical sales role. Jerry believes this role helped him to develop an in-depth understanding of customer service. He had to assess quickly what his customers wanted, and then had to ensure that the product or service he was selling met the exact needs of this demand. A skill which he still uses today.

The initial one-to-one consultative approach that Jerry undertakes with all PlayAhead customers allows him to fully evaluate your needs and expectations and offer advice. He will then work with his team to design and build and install your outdoor play equipment.

The best job in the world

Why? Because Jerry gets to spend all day thinking like a child! And it’s this way of thinking that makes PlayAhead stand out from other outdoor play equipment companies.

Being the father of a 10 year old boy, and with a wealth of outdoor adventure activity experience, Jerry’s knowledge helps PlayAhead understand parents’ needs and build timber play equipment that excites and improve children’s love of the outdoors.

Jerry knows what design details can be added to a piece of play equipment in order to give it the WOW factor. Whether it’s the way a door opens, the height of a treehouse or play tower or the width of gaps between a clatter bridge, he knows that even the smallest detail can make a big difference when it comes to making truly addictive garden play equipment.

This knowledge and attention to detail is key and means that PlayAhead customers can relax knowing that their garden play equipment will no only be safe but will also keep their children entertained for years to come.

The answer is ‘yes’, now what’s the question?
