Huge congratulations to Blessing & Nomore who got the keys to their new Rowland home at Riverside Place on their wedding day! Lovely photo – here’s what the happy couple had to say…
“Thank you Rowland Homes for the amazing new home, a perfect beginning with new hopes to hope and new memories to make. May the walls ring with love and laughter, Happy New Home !”
"My husband and I have just moved into ‘The Green’ and we can’t stress enough how happy we are with this property. This is my third new build over the last 28 years. I have to say, the aftercare through Steve the site manager is second to none. There was a minimal snag list, and any issues reported were resolved within two days - I was so impressed. We’ve also been grateful to have Mathew on site in the show home sales office, who’s always been a friendly face and a great help to get settled. My daughter is also entertaining a new build property to purchase, and has since said that she wouldn’t hesitate to buy with Rowland after seeing how far above and beyond they have gone for us. Overall, as a family we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rowland, and hope for everyone to be as lucky as us by encountering such wonderful Rowland staff."
I visited Sandpiper Grange initially with my mum, as we thought buying a new build may be a little stressful. On arrival we met our Sales Executive who put us at ease and has been helpful throughout the process. I will very soon have the keys to my home and I am so looking forward to it. As Stephen says this is a team effort as it take many trades / staff to build my home and that is something we have seen at Sandpiper Grange.
“On visting the development, we are very happy with how we had been greeted. Buying a new home did feel daunting to me. I met Stephen and straight away, I knew he was a listener. He took time to understand what was important to me and helped me locate our beautiful new home. I was worried if I could remember all the steps I needed to complete, but with regular updates and more important for me phone calls and meetings, really helped reduce my worries. I have now completed my Home Demonstration and I am so excited to have the keys next week. During the visit to my home, Harry reassured me that he wants me to be very happy and that if I had any concerns I can call him and make contact, this was very good. Thank you Rowland Homes for building my new home."
Being a new owner, not knowing the process Stephen has been invaluable to help me understand what was required. Stephen, Liam & Harry have been an amazing team of people. The team here really do make me feel part of something very special. I am very happy with my Rowland Home and currently going through my 7 day visit. Thank you Rowland for my new home.
It has been an immense pleasure to associate with Sandpiper Grange for our first home. We can’t thank Stephen enough for the constant help, kindness and guidance he offered to us even on his days off, and the effort he took to complete the process on time was really appreciated. As a first time buyer we were not aware of the process, but Stephen guided us through every step and made us comfortable. Our overall experience was excellent and we do highly recommend Rowland.
From the moment we met with Stephen, we knew Sandpiper Grange was the development for us. We first visited when Stephen was in his temporary sales office and were so impressed when we viewed the Show Home. Harry, the Assistant Site Manager has been excellent and very informative - we are both very happy to call Sandpiper Grange home.
On arrival to Sandpiper Grange, we met with our Sales Executive who was welcoming, kind and considerate. Stephen made what felt like a personal effort to know us, and our family’s needs. We had visited many other developments before moving in to Sandpiper Grange. We are so happy and would recommend Rowland Homes to family and friends.
Thank you to Sandpiper Grange Team
We are delighted to come back as previous Rowland Homes owners. We love having ample space within and around our new home at Sandpiper Grange. The Sales Executive has been easy to deal with and I feel it has been a breeze. The reservation process is thorough and detailed. This helps provide us with information about our new home, knowing also about the warranties provided. Impressed with the service and would recommend Rowland Homes.
When we visited Thorne Meadows, we felt looked after and the Sales Executive was very informative. The main point for us, is Stephen was great to let us know about the availability of our new home so quickly. I have never heard about Rowland, however my partner has via adverts on the Radio, we loved it. We are not new build people, however once we visited Thorne Meadows our opinions and feeling has changed, instantly we changed and had to have one straight away. From the 1st visit we knew instantly we had to have one and we are super delighted.
We wanted to thank you and the team for all the support and assistance you have given us as we moved into our dream home on your Levens View estate. The experience has been a joy for us and this started with the help and advice you gave us that led to us taking you up on your offer of a Powermove to purchase.
The professionalism of the Rowland Homes team has been excellent throughout our home purchase. The Powermove worked seamlessly and the estate agents you used were very good and kept us well informed throughout the entire process.
The communication has been excellent throughout the buying process and you kept us well informed about the construction of our new home.
Since we have moved in it has been a joy as our Reynold home is everything we were looking for in our new family home. There is plenty of space, the finish is very good and we really like the layout of the family room as it opens out onto our lovely sized garden.
The standard of build has been very good with a snag list that only consisted of some minor cosmetic elements which I am extremely pleased to say Dan and his team have been going out of their way to fix. We are extremely impressed with the professional approach of the team on site.
Many thanks and we are looking forward to meeting our new neighbours as they continue to move onto the site and being part of the growing community as Levens View continues to develop.
We are both first time buyers and coming into this process was made easy for us from day 1. Kiera our sales executive on Finch Park explained the process from start to finish, kept us regularly updated throughout the build - to being handed the keys to our new perfect home. She has made this experience amazing from start to finish with so much help along the way & something we will always be grateful for.
We originally went with our own solicitors and it was a disaster. Rowland Homes then put us with one of their recommended solicitors (PLS) who turned the exchange around within 7 days!
We love the build and finish of our first home it is perfect! Thank you to Kiera and all at Rowland Homes for this wonderful experience. I would recommend anyone to buy a Rowland Home.
My dealings with Rowland have been with Stephen at Thorne Meadows. Although I was putting my home as Part Exchange I still had to complete on the sale of my other house. This put it back a short while but Stephen kept in touch regularly and was a great help. My move is finally set for Monday 7/12 and he has been a great help in keeping me sane whilst updating me of the progress of my property.
"We just love visiting Rowland Homes. lt was very important that my little boy Harry feels at home as well, and he really does, we have played on the drums and tried not to dance as a family. Our visits have been great and we really feel part of Rowland and so looking forward to our NEW home. We had looked at other builders, yet we returned to Rowland homes for the quality, the service and warm and friendly atmosphere.
We have moved in on Valentine's Day - we have been wanting to move for 2 years, we visited Thorne Meadows and selected our stunning home off plan - We then visited another development in Sandbach to view the home of our dreamsl We looked at other developments but preferred Rowland Homes. we just love the designs, the warmth of the staff and the attention to detail was superb! We are 100% delighted.
We found Rowland homes driving past the development. 6 Years ago we wanted to live in Great Eccleston. We noticed Rowland Homes are building here and it was an answer to our wishes. The process has been stress free and enjoyable. The home we wanted we initially missed out on, however we now have our dream home and "we just love the Marlborough"
l would like to say a massive thank you to Stephen and Kiera, you have made this process enjoyable. Before I arrived, I felt dismal about the process and worried about buying my new home. We have visited developers a month ago and had negative experiences, however on visiting the Pastures we are impressed with the level of service we have received. From the word "go" when we stepped in your office have been positive, optimistic, and put me at ease.
Steve - Sales Executive at The Pastures, Wesham
We just wanted to say how thankful we are for all your help throughout our journey. It wasn’t an easy journey and there was lots of obstacles but nothing phased you. You kept me calm throughout the whole process and I could not be more grateful. We have our dream home and it’s all down to your amazing support and hard work!
Thank you Steve!
Sophie & James - The Pastures
We purchased our beautiful Rowland Home 7 months ago and I can honestly say its been such a pleasure. Everyone we have had dealings with from Rowland have been helpful and always pleasant and they really do go above and beyond for their customers.
Had the pleasure of Will the handyman fixing a bedroom door that had dropped a little bit. While he was here, he painted a small hole that had been filled and fixed my upvc patio doors. Lovely guy, pleasant and helpful.
Wendy Lattimer is my superstar go to person for anything. What a lovely lady, so helpful, always pleasant and nothing is too much trouble. She gets everything sorted so quickly even though I always tell her there’s no rush
Rowland you should be proud of your product but more so of your staff, they are truly amazing!
I would recommend Rowland homes to anyone thinking of purchasing a new build
Dawn Smallwood - Pear Tree Grange
I want to express my gratitude for Steve Speed, Sales Executive at The Pastures, Wesham. What an incredibly talented and professional man. As a result of his hard work we successfully managed to move into our dream family home. We moved into our first home- also Rowland– about 4 years ago.
We were impressed with the house it just, once our son came along, became a little too small for us. As we loved our home we wanted to stay with Rowland. Steve gave us this opportunity. He allowed us to part exchange which gave us a really great deal on our current house. We were given all sorts of bonuses too.
We have been living in our new house (a beautiful Wallingford) for a month now and we are impressed. It is stylish and a fantastic family home. We did have a few snags but they are being sorted without any issues. Credit to Andy the site manager for that one too.
Great job Steve and thanks for the great house Rowland Homes!
Emily & Phillip Hingley
We have visited The Pastures and really liked the street scene and layout of the development. We have purchased with our family's needs in mind and are delighted to call The Pastures home. The service has been excellent and we would recommend Rowland Homes. We have already recommended a friend
Thank you Rowland.
We visited Rowland Homes and from the very first welcome in to the Sales Office, we have both felt warmly welcomed and provided excellent service.
Buying a new home is so very important to us and we both look forward to living here at Pear Tree Grange. Our next step is to book an appointment to visit and talk over all of our options and extras. We are so happy! thank you Rowland Homes!
New Rowland Home owners of a beautiful Brantwood visited the sales office to introduce “Bear” their new family member and resident at Pear Tree Grange.
We call in to the sales office to say “hi” and catch up with our Sales Adviser every so often.
This visit was very important as our newest family member “Bear” had a visit to the sales office.
Bear brings us so much joy and together with our new Rowland Home, we are settling in very well.
We visited Pear Tree Grange for the very 1st time on Sunday 6th January 2019, following visiting other new build developments in the area. Having a lot to choose from can be very confusing, trying to remember developers standard spec. On arrival to Pear Tree Grange the welcome was warm and non pressuring. We looked at both show homes and were really impressed with The Brantwood.
We gained the information needed. Going home the property was on my mind and we called and talked with the Sales Adviser who invited us to an appointment to talk over options and help progress. The process to reserve was really helpful and informative. Now I am just waiting to move in. Thank you Rowland Homes for all of your time, even after hours!
We are just delighted! We visited Rowland Homes online over the festive break following completing on the sale of our previous property. We sent an enquiry over and visited on 3rd January 2019, knowing this was Rowland Homes first day back. We reserved our lovely new 4 bedroom detached Rowland Home. The process was informative and have to say enjoyable! Any questions we asked were all answered by the Sales Executive who took his time helping us understand the home and also the development. Thank you Rowland Homes we are so excited!
House buying for the most part is not for the faint hearted. For those that decide to go down the new build route it requires a certain level of trust in the housing developer to deliver on what they promise. For a buyer, there is a lot to think about during the decision-making process.
We had a chat with David Saul who works in pre-construction and bought a Bowes style 4 bedroom detached house as part of the Romans Green development in Blackrod.
For an industrial professional he must have been hard to please. So, what sealed the deal for him?
David had looked at other showrooms but liked the quality of Rowland and thought they were much better than others he had seen. He said: “The location was brilliant and it was also Claire from the Sales team. Her personality was so nice and nothing was ever too much trouble. If I emailed a question over, I got a response within the hour. Plus Nick the Site Manager was fantastic!”
Getting great customer service and building a good rapport with the team certainly helped to gain David’s trust in Rowland.
But we asked about the house itself, what was the main selling point? “For this particular style of house, the lounge is separate from the kitchen and family room which I liked,” he said.
David was also impressed with the construction and standard of work: “A lot of other developers for example use white cheap plug sockets but our house has been fitted with brushed steel Chrome effect sockets throughout. Also at the beginning, we were given the option of moving things about which was great, as we purchased before the roof going on our new home."
Now that you are moved in and preparing to spend your first Christmas in your new house, would you recommend Rowland to other people? “Yes, I would definitely buy another house from them and would also recommend them to other house buyers. I have bought other houses in the past and they have nothing on Rowland”.
We first visited looking for a new home, that would meet the needs of our family. Today we visited and brought our parents with us, who are already Rowland Homes owners. On arrival we all received a warm welcome from the Sales Adviser, who immediately took us to the Tree of Gifts. We all received a numbered bauble and are just delighted with our festive gifts. Thank you to all at Pear Tree Grange for your warmth and we are looking forward to when our new home is released for sale to us!
1. Discuss different house styles with your Mortgage Advisor to see what you can afford
2. Check local Independents for furniture and fittings
3. Don’t feel like you are being picky - it is your home
4. Ask loads of questions
Massive thanks to all at Rowland Homes for our beautiful forever home
Mostly to Stephen who we have dealt with since day one! Thanks Stephen for the help, advice and fun along the way. You truly are a lovely man
We are just delighted with the whole process and looking forward to living in our stunning new Rowland Home, Thank You Rowland
We revisited Rowland Homes after previously purchasing a new Rowland Home a number of years ago. On our arrival we were met by Stephen the Sales Adviser, who was warm, friendly and welcoming.
We mentioned that we had a Rowland Home and that we wanted to view the show homes. Our adviser extended his hand and said "thank you for your previous purchase", this was nice for us, as choosing to purchase again is such a personal journey.
Following viewing the show homes and identifying which home we wanted, we talked over Part Exchange. The process was nice, simple and straightforward. We agreed the Part Exchange with Stephen and are now looking forward to moving in.
Thank you Rowland Homes.
“I chose the Marples Grange site because of it's great location. It’s handy for work and is ideally connected to the motorway. I’ve got my keys and I’m ready to move in any day. Matthew in the sales office has been fantastic throughout, keeping me up to date with everything, chasing things up and chasing me when needed!
I’m so looking forward to moving in I didn’t realise it would happen so quickly. From putting down the reservation fee the whole process has only taken about 8 weeks."
"We are delighted, we visited Pear Tree Grange and met with Stephen the Sales Adviser who was friendly and made us feel at ease.
When first visiting we talked with our Adviser to say that we are only looking to purchase in the future, we had however sold our home and were looking at options.
It was a pleasure to hear that our Adviser wanted us to know all about the Early Bird Scheme. We just could not wait to pay £150 and place a Early Bird reservation against our Renishaw 4 bedroom detached.
Location is very important to us for our little ones schooling, however the quality and high specification really helped us. We would just like to say how simple the process has been, and we love visiting very often, we would rate our service as BRILLIANT".
“We have been waiting for a development of high quality housing in this area for a while. On day 1 of it opening we reserved a Rowland plot which is facing farmland and has the nature reserve to the side. We are delighted.
The development is in the catchment area for an outstanding primary school that we are keen for our son, Finn (2), to attend so the location is perfect.
“Carol has been great to deal with since day one and Gary the site manager is brilliant. We had some minor snags and they were all fixed while we were away on holiday, ready for us when we arrived home. The whole thing has been a great experience.”
Happy residents at Garrett Fields
We are so very delighted with the style and look of the Brantwood! Our home just looks amazing and it's not even finished yet. We truly cannot wait to move in, and we are so happy with the team that we wanted to treat them all.
I am aware that a simple card would have done the job, however I needed to do more. Thank you Rowland Homes for all of your care and attention
We used Rowland Homes Early Bird Scheme for our stunning new 3 Bedroom Detached Home.
We visited the Sales Office and met again with Stephen who has been a pleasure to communicate with during our relationship with Rowland Homes. We noticed another 3 Bedroom Detached became available much sooner!
We could not wait to get in touch with Stephen our dedicated Sales Adviser and Reserved our Lovely New Home
We have used the Help to Buy process and this has been so very easy to understand with the help of our Rowland Approved Financial Advisers RSC.
We would just like to say "thank you for all your help thus far and we are both very excited"
Since we moved into our new Rowland Home everything in our lives has fallen into place.
Before we were in a small flat and now my son, my partner and I have a lovely home and a huge garden. My partner Matt proposed to me and we are so much closer as a family living in our new home.
I’ve even had a promotion at work to Branch Manager, which was great! It has been a real turning point and our lives as a family are now complete.
We feel so lucky in so many ways. Thanks Rowland.
Anastasia Reay, Elworth Hall Farm
My son recently bought a Rowland Home on the Stokes Manor development in Leyland. He was so thrilled with the friendliness of the Rowland sales team and the high standards of customer service that we decided to go and have a look at Duxbury Manor to compare the homes with other builders. The quality of the Rowland Homes compared to the others was significantly higher and the offers and incentives that were available just made it too good to turn down.
There are no words to express the gratitude that we feel towards the head of sales on the site. Val was there every step of the way and always went above and beyond clearly having our best interests at heart. I love my new home and the close knit community that we are now part of.
Ann Monkton, Duxbury Manor
We bought our first Rowland Home thirteen years ago, we lived there for a number of years before buying another one several years later. We are now in our third Rowland Home on Duxbury Manor and love it. The sales and site manager will do anything to help, are always there for you and the fixtures and fittings in each Rowland home that we have owned over the years have just got better and better each time, they are stunning. It’s how you are treated too - nothing is too much trouble
Dave Rourke, Duxbury Manor
Thanks to Wendy at Customer Care for all your help. Can I just take the time to compliment your site manager Simon that dealt with our house. 99% of issues have now been sorted and the majority were sorted by Simon himself there and then which was surprising to see a site manager on the tools.
Also you have a builder called Andy that came and swept up that has been a few times for odd jobs. Again a massive credit to yourselves and genuinely can't do enough for people.
Lastly Claire the sales advisor for all her help and patience over the last 9 months! As with most things in business everybody makes mistakes, it's how you rectify them, and with that you've been brilliant.
Mr & Mrs Hastwell
Standard on the finish of the new homes is EXCELLENT! We've looked at that many new build homes - but for Rowland the finish and what comes included is fantastic which makes a massive difference! We're happy we have reserved our Rowland Home and would highly recommend!
Thank you for everything, Mr & Mrs Carter.
