Westwind Oak – Bespoke Oak Frame Building Company

Whether you’d like a new home, a place to work, an extension or a commercial building, our award-winning handcrafted oak framed buildings will be individually designed and made precisely for you.

Only a few companies exist that have honed the traditional skills needed to manufacture a green oak frame by hand in a heritage tradition, and Westwind Oak is one of them. We aren’t stuck in the past though... we use some of the most technologically advanced computer software and modern design principles to create beautifully crafted traditional and contemporary oak framed buildings.

Westwind Oak has built over 1000 oak frame structures since forming in 1988. We specialise in, but are not limited to: Oak Frame Houses, Pergolas, Extensions, Porches, Annexes, Garages & Oak Self Build Kits.

We work with self builders, architects and building contractors to create design led, innovative and sustainable buildings that brim with character.

  • Ben & Emma Holmes, Worcestershire

    “The Westwind Oak team were brilliant from start to finish with the element of our renovation and extension they were involved in. No cheesy sales team just speaking to the real doers which is very refreshing compared to some competitors. The site team were professional and quickly turned our Groundwork’s into something more akin to your dream home! We couldn't recommend Westwind Oak enough and know where we will be heading for help when it's time for another project.”

  • Chris & Mary Noon, Dorset

    “Outstanding company and people - Westwind gave invaluable advice when designing our oak framed house, we visited while they created the frame, and then they erected the frame in just 3 days (followed by one week for the SIPS). Their experience and skills made for a beautiful natural structure, and they worked well with our builders. We highly recommend them for anyone looking to build a natural oak framed building - the result is so good, its won awards.”

  • Chris Hardie, Oxfordshire

    “After researching more than ten companies—and even visiting three of them in person—I chose Westwind Oak for my project. What set them apart was their genuine willingness to collaborate on the design, along with a clear sense of honesty, craftsmanship, and deep expertise.

    The finished oak frame is exactly what I had envisioned, and the overall quality exceeded my expectations. I would confidently recommend Westwind Oak to anyone looking for a skilled, trustworthy, and collaborative company for their oak‑frame project.”

  • Mick Grove, Warwickshire

    “My design for a green oak frame extension was quite complex, and most framers we visited told us it would not be possible to achieve, trying to persuade us to adopt something simpler. When we met the team at Westwind Oak we were impressed with their attitude, skill and good humour and it was clear that they could successfully undertake our design. So it was their willingness and ability to take on complex designs and constructions which differentiated them from other companies.”

  • Mike & Sally Chilman

    “The building of the frame, delivery and installation had to fit in with our builders time frame, who was building our garage underneath and interfacing the new extension to the old house. Westwind Oak were seamless with this time scale, their delivery and very professional erection of the frame. We have no hesitation in recommending Westwind Oak; from the initial meeting with the design team, right through to the friendly team who delivered and built it.”

  • Nigel and Julie Smith, Berkshire

    “I would highly recommend the Westwind Oak Team, if you are looking for an Oak Framed house, built and constructed using the same traditional tradesman techniques as it has always been. We wanted an experienced company that used hand tools and tradesmen, rather than computerised machines, and that’s exactly what we got!! It’s been a pleasure guys, for making our forever house so special.”

    Nigel and Julie Smith, Berkshire

  • Tom Hogg, Axbridge

    “We worked closely with Westwind Oak and our Architect to develop our four bedroom oak framed self-build house. Westwind Oak were a pleasure to work with and delivered the oak frame and sips panels package on time and on budget. The attention to detail and ‘crafting’ of the timbers resulted in a spectacular open plan upstairs living area, taking full advantage of the exposed roof timbers and unique interrupted collar sling brace frames to the gables. We were able to visit the workshop to see the frames being made and the oak frame installation was particularly impressive, taking just one cold December day to erect from sole plate to ridge”
