Projects
Building the future together with you!
When constructing a home, we will think and create together with our clients. We focus on renovation rather than just remodeling. Our aim is not only to repair the house but to make it a more comfortable living space.
Renovation and Modernisation of Traditional Japanese Houses (Kominka)
In recent years, our company has specialised in renovating and modernising traditional Japanese houses, both in and around Kyoto, as well as in the western Kansai region. If needed, we can assist with the process of finding a suitable home—taking into account location, budget, and other preferences—as well as handling the related paperwork.
We work closely with architects, traditional carpenters (daiku), and real estate agents to find not only the right house but also the best way to turn it into your home. On many of our projects, Alex Kerr—whose name needs no introduction in the world of kominka restoration—works with us as a consultant and mentor.

Our Philosophy
あなたと一緒に未来を築く
Let's build your dream together!
Okano Construction is an established Business since November 20th, 2010
Changed to a stock company on June 8, 2012
In the beginning, we focused on repair work, however, as the number of renovation projects has increased over the years, we have also started to do new construction work. We have been building comfortable houses for our customers by utilizing our expertise in repair and renovation work. In addition, we have also been able to provide construction management services because of our experience working in the construction industry before the establishment of the company. We are available for consultation on anything from water leakage to new house construction.
