Our Story (it’s a good one)...
Walter Brown Services, (formally Walter Brown Roofing), has served Howard County & surrounding areas since 1946. At the end of World War II, these areas experienced a vast growth due to returning soldiers, & with this growth came opportunity and a dire need for Contractors. Walter Brown, Sr. saw this opportunity & began the Walter E. Brown & Son Roofing Company; which went on to complete much of the original siding, roof & exterior work for the large neighborhoods being built throughout the county.
At a very early age, Walter Brown, Jr. started learning & working with his father, Walter Sr. Over the next few decades, the two men worked together to build a proud company based on honesty, service & excellent workmanship. Upon Walt Sr.'s retirement, Walt Jr. took over ownership of Walter Brown Roofing. It was during this time, that the planned community of Columbia was being built. Once again, Walter E. Brown & Son Roofing was there to provide both top quality home-building exterior service.
Matt's chapter of the story begins at age 14, when he began working summers for Walt Jr., a close family friend. By this time, Walter E. Brown & Son Roofing was deeply rooted in many Maryland communities. Over the next several summers, Matt had the opportunity to learn & begin what was to become his trade from a man who truly cared about his work & the people for whom he worked. After studying business in college, Matt saw the opportunity for on the job training, went to work for Walt full-time. It was decided that Matt would run daily operations, allowing Walt to work on the business aspects of the company.
As Walt Jr. began preparing for his own retirement, he asked Matt if he would be interested in taking over the Family Business. Matt knew right away that this was a great opportunity & one that couldn't be passed up. It was an extraordinarily exciting time in the next two years, in which Matt learned the business directly from Walt & his wife Laverne. Matt officially took over full responsibility of Walter Brown Services on January 1, 2009, fully confident that Walt had prepared him for all aspects of the business.
We are looking forward to continuing the same tradition of honesty, service & excellent workmanship that the company was built upon in 1946.
