Wade Building Services Ltd has expanded its national construction supply network through the acquisition of Westline, bringing together two established businesses with strong experience across structural steelwork, lintels, temporary site products and specialist building materials.
The acquisition supports Wade’s continued growth as a major supplier to housebuilders, contractors, developers, merchants and construction professionals, while strengthening the company’s ability to support projects across England, Scotland and Wales.
Based in Tipton in the West Midlands, Wade Building Services has developed a strong reputation for product availability, technical support and practical construction supply expertise. The company is recognised as one of the UK’s leading lintel suppliers, holding one of the largest lintel stocks outside the manufacturers.
Westline, established in 1987, operates from County Durham and Nottinghamshire and has long supplied structural steelwork, builders’ steel, lintels, fixings, fasteners and specialist construction products to customers throughout the UK.
By combining the two businesses, Wade gains additional regional coverage, improved logistics and increased capacity across several key areas of the construction supply chain. The enlarged business will offer a broader 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.
For construction customers, the acquisition is intended to improve access to essential materials, strengthen technical support and provide greater supply certainty across both regional and national projects.
All Westline employees have joined the Wade Building Services group, helping to ensure continuity for customers, suppliers and industry partners. The move also preserves the product knowledge, service relationships and technical experience that have supported both companies’ reputations in the sector.
Indie Basi, Group Managing Director of Wade Building Services, said:
“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, added:
“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 during the integration process, with both teams focused on maintaining service levels, product availability and dependable support.
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, passive fire protection, site equipment and construction products.
