— About This Service
JAD Ward Construction Ltd completes sensible, code-compliant adaptations and layout alterations that make properties work better for how people live and work today. From reconfiguring ground-floor layouts and installing level-access wet rooms to creating accessible entrances and knock-throughs, projects are handled by an experienced, founder-led team. Projects are planned to reduce disruption, keep sites clean and meet Building Regulations where required. Local architects regularly recommend JAD Ward for straightforward, reliable delivery within a 40-minute radius of Brackley.
— Our Process
Founder JAD Ward or a senior tradesman visits, assesses access, load-bearing walls and thresholds, and produces a practical plan that prioritises usability and compliance.
You receive a clear written quote and a phased programme showing trades, milestones and required inspections so you know what to expect on site.
Work is completed to specification with site tidiness, snagging and any necessary Building Regulations sign-off or liaison with structural engineers before handover.
— Benefits
Founder-led knowledge across traditional and modern construction methods ensures practical, long-lasting solutions for Victorian terraces, modern houses and commercial units.
Strict site housekeeping, protected floors and a phased programme reduce impact on your day-to-day life and leave properties clean at completion.
Practical adaptations for changing needs. JAD Ward Construction specialises in altering existing layouts to improve accessibility and function — widening doorways and corridors, lowering thresholds, creating ground-floor bathrooms and wet rooms, rearranging kitchens for mobility, and installing ramps or level-entry thresholds. Work ranges from minor internal reconfigurations and partition removals to structural knock-throughs with RSJ installation arranged through a structural engineer.
Compliant, coordinated delivery. Where Building Regulations apply, JAD Ward will coordinate with your architect or a structural engineer and arrange inspections. Projects are scheduled to keep trades sequenced, use local suppliers where possible and protect adjacent rooms to limit dust. With 42 years on the tools, the approach is straightforward: sensible solutions, reliable attendance, and a tidy handover that respects homes and businesses across Brackley, Bicester and Northampton.
— FAQ
Most internal adaptations and internal layout changes do not require planning permission, but alterations that affect the exterior, change use class, or are significant to a listed building may. JAD Ward will advise on planning requirements during the site survey and coordinate with your architect if necessary.
