Building Excellence Across Nottinghamshire
About Haus Developer
We take on projects of every scale, from kitchen and bathroom renovations through to full home extensions, complete house builds, and commercial construction. Whatever the project, every build is managed directly by our founder Steven Rowlands, delivered to a high standard, and backed by a workmanship guarantee.
Meet Steven Rowlands, Founder
What sets Steven apart from most builders is the deliberate breadth of his training. He has invested consistently in his own professional development across every aspect of the build process, from site safety and construction skills through to property development, project management, and client communication. That combination is unusual in this trade, and Steven is personally responsible for every project Haus Developer takes on, from the first conversation through to the final handover.

Property Development and Project Management
Why This Matters on Your Project
Construction projects go wrong for predictable reasons: poor planning, inadequate site safety, and builders who underestimate costs. Steven’s qualifications address every one of those failure points directly. An SMSTS-certified site manager with formal project management training and more than 25 years in the trade. That is a level of experience and qualification that is genuinely hard to find.
