Our Story
Built on Foundations That Matter — Honesty, Skill, and Accountability
JBW Construction started over 25 years ago with a simple principle: do excellent work, charge fair prices, and treat every client's home as if it were our own. John founded the company after years working for larger firms where he saw too many shortcuts, too many excuses, and too many homeowners left disappointed by builders who over-promised and under-delivered.
Based on Salisbury Avenue in Chesterfield, we serve homeowners and businesses across Derbyshire, the Peak District, and into South Sheffield. Our team of directly-employed tradespeople — bricklayers, joiners, plasterers, electricians, and plumbers — work together on every project.
We specialise in property extensions, new builds, barn conversions, loft and garage conversions, refurbishments, and commercial projects including shop fit-outs and pub refurbishments. Whether it's a £15,000 garage conversion or a £500,000 new build, John personally manages the project.
Over 150 completed projects later, our reputation has been built entirely on word-of-mouth referrals and repeat business. Read our client reviews or view our completed projects to see why.
Who We Help
Homeowners, Landlords & Businesses Across Derbyshire
Growing Families
Parents who need more space — extra bedrooms, bigger kitchens, open-plan living areas. We design extensions and conversions that grow with your family without forcing a house move.
Period Property Owners
Owners of stone cottages, Victorian terraces, and barn conversions who need builders experienced with traditional materials, lime mortar, and heritage-sensitive construction methods.
Landlords & Investors
Property investors converting garages, lofts, and commercial spaces into rental income. We deliver projects on time and on budget so your investment starts earning sooner.
Our Standards
What We Stand For — And What We Won't Tolerate
No Shortcuts on Structure
Foundations, steelwork, roofing, and load-bearing elements are done once, done right. Every structural element is independently inspected by building control before we proceed.
Fixed Prices, No Surprises
Our quotes are detailed, itemised, and fixed. You'll never receive an invoice higher than the agreed quote without prior written agreement.
Direct Communication, Always
You deal with John. Not a project manager who's never been on a building site. Not a call centre. When you have a question, you get a direct answer.
Clean Sites, Respectful Teams
Our team cleans up daily. Materials are stored neatly, skips are managed, and your property is treated with respect.
10-Year Structural Guarantee
Every structural project comes with an underwritten, transferable 10-year guarantee — a formal commitment that protects your investment even if you sell the property.
