Oxland Builders is a design-build custom home and remodeling firm in Stratham, NH; its website says it has an in-house design team and cabinet shop and works across the New Hampshire Seacoast, Rockingham County and southern Maine. The company says Brad Sawler co-founded it in spring 2003 to build custom spec homes and has led it since his co-founder moved into real estate. An article on unionleader.com describes Sawler as having started out building custom homes in Massachusetts in 2003 before adding remodeling and renovation work. On Reddit's r/newhampshire, a commenter calls the firm "Pricey but good." A 2025 customer said the first floor of their home was renovated while they were still living and working there. A 2025 reviewer wrote that design consultant Christina laid out and sourced the products for a bathroom renovation run by project manager Nick Layhe. That 2025 customer also said things took a little longer than hoped, as with most remodels. A 2025 customer said Oxland enclosed their porch and solved water intrusion from heavy rains. In a 2025 review, a customer said Brad Sawler and his team converted a screened-in porch into a 4 season room. A 2023 customer hired Oxland to renovate a fireplace and said Brad and his team discussed the need to add insulation. That 2023 customer said the onsite team showed up on time every day and kept the job site clean. A 2018 customer said Brad transformed an unfinished third floor, and that the couple who later bought the home said "The third floor is what sold us". A 2014 customer said Oxland demolished their existing deck and built a new porch with a screened-in portion and an open deck, with siding matched to the house, completed on time and within budget.
“Oxland builders. Has a great rep. Pricey but good.”
“Brad Sawler, who started out building custom homes in Massachusetts in 2003 and now adds remodeling and renovation work to the mix at his Stratham-based Oxland Builders, echoes Buck. "We get requests year 'round."”
Renovating the first floor of my home was a major decision and working with Oxland Builders made the experience so much easier than I had anticipated. After first meeting with Brad to discuss what I had in mind, I then had a meeting at my home with Kate and Christina, and we got to experience a minor earthquake together! They are two of the nicest and most talented people I have ever had the occasion to meet and work with. Kate has great knowledge of who to call and how to get things done. And Christina's knowledge of what will look great, what won't work so well, was amazing. There were many meetings with both of these incredible women! Matt and Charlie are very talented and so nice to have around. And to make the job more challenging for them, I was still living in the home and working from home throughout the whole process. Lynn in the office always had a smile and warm greeting for me, and on one visit even came out to my car to give my puppy a biscuit! Dick was here a couple times to make deliveries. Everyone at Oxland is an asset to their company and I would highly recommend them to everyone!
Oxland's team took great care of us. Our project manager, Nick Layhe was as communicative and timely as materials, subs & weather would allow. He and the other on-site Oxland employees , Matt & Charlie always arrived with a smile on their faces, prepared to put in a long day. Christina, their design consultant did an excellent job laying out and sourcing the products required for our collective vision for a bathroom renovation. All of their subcontractors are polite and professional. As with most remodels, things took a little longer than we hoped. But once underway, things went as smoothly as possible.... and the end result is truly spectacular. We couldn't adore our home more.
The Oxland team was great. Responsive and friendly, they did great work, exactly as I requested and cleaned up thoroughly afterwards. I would trust them again with my historic home.
Oxland Builders did a great job enclosing our porch and solving water intrusion from heavy rains. I would highly recommend Oxland Builders for your home improvement project.
Brad Sawler and his team at Oxland did a tremendous job converting our screened-in porch into a 4 season room. Brad listened patiently to our ideas and helped us plan the perfect space. The finished room exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Oxland for your next project.
