So you're thinking of building a house? Then you'll need a team you can trust and have honest conversations with. That's exactly what you get with the Oakenstone team. They're an experienced, talented team of designers, builders and problem solvers. Great communication and project management combined with high quality thinking and finishing. We built our barn conversion in just over 9 months. From start to finish we had no major issues or problems. That's how to successfully build a house. And that's why we worked with them.

OakenStone are the complete package, we were well taken care of throughout our complete planning, design and home build project in Derbyshire Dales. The team offer a wealth of experience and knowledge, their attention to detail is second to none and they offer design and construction solutions to maximise the use of space and ensure the finished product is of the highest quality. But they aren’t just knowledgeable, they are nice too. The whole team are as friendly as they are skilled and there is no worry or doubt about inviting them into your home - or into your lives if you take on a life transforming project like we did. Oakenstone are honest and detailed when it comes to budgets and finances, they offer updates throughout the process. Client meetings happen routinely throughout the process as does involvement with different members of the team as the project progresses. If you’re looking for a skilled, trustworthy, company local to Derbyshire and the Peak District to support you through planning, architectural design, build and construction, service connections, grounds maintenance and finishing interior designs look no further. We’ve been in our house for nearly a year and couldn’t be happier.

Our second home in Bakewell required complete renovation. As our primary home was a two hour drive away we needed a company we could trust to manage a complex project over many months, keeping communication lines constantly open and dealing efficiently with any day to day problems. OakenStone were already renovating a neighbouring cottage, and an initial site meeting persuaded us they had the resources and ideas to make a success of our project. We also needed a company with innovative ideas to maximize space utilization and maintain as many of the original features of the cottage as possible. The project benefitted from a combined and integrated approach to design, planning and build, and from having the same team of tradesmen working on it from beginning to end. We were kept updated through site meetings, email exchanges, phone calls and via the company’s online portal. The finished product exceeded our already high expectations and was delivered within initial estimated costs. We would, without hesitation, recommend OakenStone to others.
