About Us

Watertite Building Services is a dynamic and innovative building services contractor based in the heart of the South West.

From the very start of our journey, excellence in delivery and service has been integral to our life as a company. Watertite was founded in 1987 specialising in high-quality pipework installations. In 2023 Watertite became part of the andwis. Group, bringing together industry-leading technical building service companies to offer multi-service solutions for our clients.

With a team of over 60 in-house employees, ranging from project managers to specialist engineers, we can provide a comprehensive packaged solution for our customers’ building needs – from design to installation, refurbishments and ongoing maintenance.

It’s an approach that has led to sustained growth and exciting new developments for Watertite. With a turnover now in excess of £10 million, our workforce is ever-growing and we are continually seeking to bring the very best people to work alongside us.

The majority of Watertite's office staff, have worked their way up, from being on the tools to their current managerial positions; which is a fact that we at Watertite are very proud of, and we believe gives us an edge over many of our competitors. It is something that is constantly highlighted as a strong point of our business, by clients and fellow contractors.
