Wade Building Services Ltd has announced the acquisition of Westline, bringing together two established construction supply businesses with extensive experience across structural steelwork, lintels, site fencing and specialist construction products.
The acquisition marks an important milestone in Wade’s continued growth and strengthens its position as a supplier to housebuilders, contractors, developers, merchants and construction professionals across the UK.
With Wade headquartered in Tipton and Westline operating from County Durham and Nottinghamshire, the combined business gains enhanced national coverage, improved logistics and increased capacity to support customers across England, Scotland and Wales.
The enlarged business offers an expanded range of products and services including steel and concrete lintels, structural steel, temporary fencing, hoarding, barriers, site security systems, passive fire protection, equipment and site essentials. The acquisition also strengthens Wade’s technical support and customer service capability across the construction sector.
Westline was established in 1987 and has built a strong reputation for quality, reliability and technical expertise. Its experience in structural steelwork, builders’ steel, lintels, fixings, fasteners and specialist construction products adds further depth to Wade’s existing merchant, lintel and site materials offer.
All Westline employees have joined the Wade Building Services group, ensuring continuity for customers, suppliers and industry partners while preserving the expertise and long-standing relationships that underpin both businesses’ reputations.
Indie Basi, Group Managing Director of Wade Building Services, says:
“Westline is a highly respected business with a great team and a strong reputation across the construction sector. We are delighted to welcome all Westline employees to Wade Building Services. Bringing our businesses together strengthens our capabilities, expands our national reach and creates an excellent platform for future growth while maintaining the expertise and customer relationships that have made both companies successful.”
Linda Lewins, formerly Managing Director at Westline and now Regional Managing Director at Wade Building Services, adds:
“Joining forces with Wade Building Services creates exciting opportunities for both our customers and our team. By combining our experience in structural steelwork, lintels and specialist construction products with Wade’s wider offering, we can provide an even more comprehensive service while maintaining the trusted relationships and personal support that Westline customers have relied upon for many years. I am delighted to continue leading the Northern operation as part of the Wade Building Services group.”
Customers, suppliers and industry partners can expect business to continue as usual throughout the integration process, with both teams focused on maintaining the high standards of service and support customers have come to expect.
The acquisition reinforces Wade Building Services’ commitment to investing in specialist construction sectors and strengthens its position as a national supplier of structural steel, lintels, temporary fencing, site equipment and construction products.
