“Determined to complete within budget and deadline. And they did!”

On visiting our farmhouse in Swansea, Josh provided advice, design and costs for a conservatory that could be completed within three months… His team, who were so respectful and polite, worked through all weathers…

“The whole process… went very smoothly and swiftly.”

They responded quickly to initial enquiry, and visited us to discuss our requirements, producing a professional visual impression of the finished product in position during the site visit which gave us confidence that the final construction was the right thing to do.

“No extra charge for the fact that I'd changed my mind…”

Having been let down by three other companies… I was already thrilled, but was totally stunned when I discovered that there'd be no extra charge for the fact that I'd changed my mind about the siting of one of the stone pillars.

We are very pleased with the Porch constructed by Foxtail Oak. It has transformed the property… We would have no hesitation recommending Foxtail oak to others.

“The team were professional & caring with our plants.”

We've an old grapevine we wanted to save & the team were professional & caring with our plants. A year on it looks great and the pergola is exactly what we'd hoped for.

Garages, extensions and porches are what we are asked for most. Each has its own page, with published prices including VAT.

Sculptural garden gazebos

Stand underneath and look up. The oak rafters spiral in to an open crown, each one resting on the next, and the roof feels like it shouldn't work. At night they frame the stars.
