Who We Are?
OGL Construction was founded in 2019 as Onewood Group Limited (OGL) by Managing Director Tom Wood. Established with a clear vision to deliver high quality construction projects through a client focused and collaborative approach, the business quickly built a reputation for professionalism, reliability, and exceptional delivery standards.
A significant milestone in our journey was the successful delivery of Oakwood Business Park in Keighley, the first independent scheme undertaken by the business. The development demonstrated our ability to successfully manage projects from concept through to completion and provided the foundation for future growth across multiple sectors.
Following the success of Oakwood Business Park and the continued expansion of the business, Onewood Group Limited (OGL) rebranded as OGL Construction in 2022. The rebrand reflected both our growth and our ambition to establish a stronger identity within the construction industry, while maintaining the values and principles that had driven our success from the outset.
Today, we operate as Principal Contractors across a diverse range of sectors including Residential, Industrial, Commercial, Sport & Leisure, Education, and Retail. Our experienced team has a proven track record of delivering projects safely, on time, and within budget, regardless of complexity or scale. Collaboration, transparency, and proactive communication underpin our approach from pre-construction through to completion.
Our people remain at the heart of everything we do. Led by experienced Project and Site Managers, we foster a culture built on safety, accountability, quality, and continuous improvement. At OGL Construction, we build more than structures, we build lasting relationships with our clients, consultants, and supply chain partners, delivering projects that create long term value and exceed expectations.
Proven Credentials.
OGL Construction is a trusted specialist in the design and build of complex construction projects across multiple sectors. Our expertise spans large-scale developments and bespoke schemes, delivering tailored solutions that meet the unique requirements of every client with a focus on quality, precision, and dependable delivery.
Our commercial and operational teams bring a wealth of industry knowledge to every project. With decades of combined experience, they work collaboratively to add value, anticipate challenges, and deliver high-quality outcomes at every stage of the construction process.
We offer tailored solutions designed to support clients from concept to completion. Whether navigating complex planning requirements or delivering on ambitious timelines, our approach combines technical expertise with clear communication and strategic foresight.
No matter the scale or complexity, we have the capability to deliver. Our proven track record, hands-on leadership, and sector-spanning experience ensure every project is delivered with professionalism, attention to detail, and absolute commitment to success.
Pre-Construction Management.
At OGL, we believe the success of any build starts long before the first brick is laid. Getting involved at the earliest possible stage allows us to shape the project with clarity, control, and confidence. Whether it begins as a concept sketch or a simple idea, we guide the process through the RIBA Plan of Work 2020 — from Concept and Developed Design through to Technical Design — ensuring each phase is carefully costed and coordinated.
Our approach ensures that design ambition aligns with financial reality. We provide detailed cost plans and bills of quantities throughout the pre-construction phase, giving clients real-time insight into budget implications. Too often we see projects where budgets are misjudged after planning approval; our proactive involvement helps prevent this by establishing a solid foundation from day one.
We don’t just plan projects — we help define them. Our team works closely with clients, architects, and consultants to create a design path that is both creatively ambitious and commercially viable, making informed decisions every step of the way. When we’re involved early, we can unlock real value and deliver a project that meets expectations across design, budget, and timeline.
Construction Connoisseurs.
At OGL Construction, our reputation is built on precision, performance, and professionalism. We approach every project with a deep understanding of construction excellence and a commitment to delivering beyond expectations.
