Why Four Oaks
You shouldn't have to worry about your own home.
Most families building or extending their home face the same nightmare — budgets that creep, timelines that slip, and a builder who stops returning calls after the deposit clears.
We built Four Oaks specifically to end that experience.
Every promise we make is written into your contract. Every update happens whether you ask for it or not. And if something isn't right, we fix it before you ever have to ask.
"From first conversation to handover, everything was exactly as promised. Not a penny over budget."
- Sarah & James Mitchell, New build · Mere Green
Fixed-price contracts
The price we quote is the price you pay. We survey thoroughly, price honestly, and write it all into a legally binding fixed-price contract. No variation orders. No surprises. No excuses.
Dedicated project manager
From the day we break ground to the day we hand you the keys, you have one person responsible for your build. They know your project inside out and are contactable every working day.
Weekly photo updates
Every Friday without fail, you receive a full videographic report of your build's progress. You always know exactly what's happening, even when you're not on site.
From first call to front door.
Whether you're extending, building new, or renovating completely — our process is the same. Designed to keep you informed, in control, and completely confident at every stage.
Consultation
A free, no-obligation meeting at your home or plot. We listen to your vision, walk the site, and give you an honest, experienced picture of what's possible and what it will cost. No sales pressure. Ever.
Design & Planning
We work with your architect or recommend one — producing full planning drawings to your exact specification. We manage the entire planning application or permitted development notification, handling every query and condition with Birmingham City Council on your behalf.
Fixed-Price Quote
A detailed, fully itemised fixed-price contract covering every element of your project. Every material, every trade, every contingency. You review it at your own pace. Nothing starts until you're completely certain.
Build
Your dedicated project manager runs the site from day one. Every trade vetted, scheduled, and supervised. Weekly photo updates arrive every Friday without fail. You always know exactly what's happening, even when you're not there.
Handover
We complete our own snagging survey before we invite you to see the finished result. Every item resolved before you walk in. Building regulations sign-off in hand. We remain your first call for 12 months after handover.
Homes that speak for themselves.
