Mark Haran
Founder & Director
Mark entered the building profession in 1978 when he started a city and guilds indentured apprenticeship. Upon completion he went on to further his skills working on many well known and historic sites across London. Initially Mark's first venture into business was forming a brickwork sub-contracting company, undertaking brickwork packages for many well know house builders across Kent and South London. It was though this company and being approached by home owners that he saw a niche in the home improvement market and Nova Construction was born in the late 80's. In 2005 Mark lectured at North West Kent College for two years alongside his duties at Nova Construction, giving him a chance to pass his skills onto the next generation coming into construction. Mark is still heavily involved with Nova Construction, Although James runs day to day business, Mark is still involved in big decisions and will be found working on site, especially kitchen installs.

Having grown up in and around the business it was no surprise when James joined Nova Construction in 2005 and gained his brickwork apprenticeship. Upon completion he managed several different size projects overseen and guided by his Dad. This followed to overall running and organising of the business. Finally James became joint director of the company alongside his Dad.
