May 13, 2026



  

Southeast Building Supply Interests, Cullman, Al., a growing platform of lumber and building materials distribution businesses serving builders and professional contractors across the Southeast U.S., has acquired century-old Builders Supply Co., further expanding SBSI’s footprint in Tennessee.

The transaction builds on SBSI’s existing presence in the state through Wallace Building Supply and reinforces its commitment to serving contractors through a growing network of local operations. This acquisition adds three Builders Supply locations to SBSI’s growing network, bringing the company’s total footprint to 14 locations throughout the Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee.

Anchored in Tullahoma, Tn., with a location in nearby Monteagle, Builders Supply has grown into a multi-location LBM operation serving contractors, homebuilders, and remodelers across the mid-state with a broad portfolio of building materials and construction solutions. Its offerings span dimensional lumber, engineered wood products, millwork, windows and doors, roofing, siding, plumbing, electrical and related products, all supported by value-added services such as jobsite delivery, value engineering, product sourcing, and project coordination.

Through its multi-branch footprint and service-oriented model, Builders Supply has established itself as a reliable partner for contractors across its markets, known for consistent execution, product expertise, and strong customer relationships.

Current owners Bubba Ingleburger and Carl Dixon will continue with Builders Supply’s operations in advisory roles, partnering closely with SBSI president Tom Tolleson and the broader SBSI leadership team to support continued growth and investment across the business.

SBSI’s partnership model provides local LBM operators with the infrastructure, operational support, and resources needed to grow their businesses while preserving their entrepreneurial culture and strong community ties with single family and multifamily builders, remodelers and specialty contractors.

Southeast Building Supply Interests is a growing platform of building materials and services businesses serving professional contractors and builders across the Southeast. SBSI is focused on operational excellence, customer service, and long-term value creation through disciplined growth and strategic partnerships.
