Steve is the Company's Managing Director and the driving force behind Waller Building Services. Having carried out his apprenticeship as a quantity surveyor with Peach Contractors Ltd in the late 1980's and early 1990's, the opportunity arose to found his own company in July 1993. Showing the entrepreneurial skills he inherited from his father, Steve was able to establish good working relationships with his clients during the Company's infancy. It is from this solid foundation that the Company has been able to grow to where it is today. Steve was able to establish good working relationships with his clients during the Company's infancy.

Andy completed a sign writing course in 1992 after leaving school and then took over the running of Waller Services from Bill & Jan in 1995. Under his management, the Company saw radical changes including the implementation of a new IT system. His skills in this area lead to one of the major advertising agencies calling on his expertise to help assist with IT training and revolutionise the logistics behind bill posting to what it is today. Andy made it a personal goal for Waller Services Ltd. to be the market leaders for safety in the workplace. From 2007 to 2009 Andy achieved this by scoring the highest rating of any outdoor advertising company working for Clear Channel UK. Andy is a fully qualified Quantity Surveyor and an integral part of the management of Waller Associates Ltd.

Bill and Jan are the co-founders of Waller Services. Ever since the formative days of Waller Building Services, they have been able to offer their experience and expertise ensuring that the Company has always had reliable figureheads to turn to when the need arises. They have seen the hard work they put in during their younger years translate into the success of both companies which continue to thrive today.

Paul Started his career as a trainee Estimator in 1982 for a large Kent based Glass Company. Over the next 27 years he moved up the corporate ladder to Group Procurement and sales Manager.

When the offer to work with Waller Glazing services arose it was the opportunity he was looking for, to work for a family run company with a real family feel that also has the vision and passion to strive forward.
