Welcome to Oak Property Restoration

From simple jobs such as changing door locks or mending a leaking gutter, to full re-roofs, repairs to garages and loft conversions and full restoration projects, our expert team are able to cover all types of work.

About Us

At Oak Property Restoration we pride ourselves on being a father and son business.

With 20 years experience in renovating cottages and converting barns in my native Yorkshire home, employing up to 15 people at one time, I then decided to move to Devon with my family in 2007 to continue my work.

My son Toby qualified as a carpenter in 2015 having been my apprentice for three years, and now proves himself as an important part of the Oak Property team.

All jobs are carried out to the highest standard and everyone receives the same quality service no matter the job size.

Good quality work done by nice people

“Oak Property Restoration carried out some work in our home during March 2024, creating two sets of room partitions with frames, doors and side glazing panels.

Stephen visited twice before starting to discuss our needs and to ensure they were fully understood and to ensure all measurements were taken and checked.

Having tradesmen in your home often feels awkward but both Stephen and his son Toby were cheerful, polite and courteous at all times and easy to get on with. They always checked that we and our three dogs were being considered as they progressed with their work throughout the week.

The finished result was exactly as we hoped and we have no hesitation in recommending Stephen Hartwell and Oak Property to everyone who wants good quality work done by nice people.” – Graham and Shirley, Sidmouth
