About us
Specialist glass merchants and glaziers in the North East.
Our history
Elders Walker & Company Limited first established their glass and glazing business in Newcastle and Gateshead, with several branches across the North East. They opened the Darlington branch in 1948, then occupying most of the eastern side of McNay Street.
The company was taken over by Pilkington PLC in the late 1970s, and sold to the Polton Glass Group in 1998. Today Elders Walker Glass Limited still occupies the original branch premises.
Peter Kelly
Peter started with the company in 1967 as an apprentice glazier, working his way up through glazier, charge-hand, foreman and general foreman. He became branch manager in 1987, then took project management roles for Pilkington at Middlesbrough and Carlisle and was Administration Manager at Elders Windows in Gateshead, before returning to Darlington as branch manager in 1992.
