US LBM acquired BuilderUp, a regional building products distributor and manufacturer serving customers throughout Maryland, Northern Virginia and the Washington, D.C. area. 

BuilderUp currently operates three locations in Maryland, two building material supply stores in Owings and Waldorf and a manufacturing plant in Owings that produces fabricated steel products along with roof and floor trusses. 

In addition to its manufactured products, BuilderUp's selection of building materials includes lumber, windows, doors, moldings, engineered wood products, concrete and masonry products, outdoor decking, hardscape and landscaping products.

The acquisition will "allow us to expand the range of specialty building products we can offer to our residential and commercial builder customers," said GMJeff LeBar, who will continue to lead BuilderUp's day-to-day operations.

US LBM's existing locations in Maryland operate under the banners of ALCO Doors, Myers Building Product Specialists and Universal Supply.

"BuilderUp has a strong team, with a dynamic mix of manufacturing, specialty products and services and extends US LBM's reach into the growing Mid-Atlantic markets of Maryland, northern Virginia and the greater Washington, D.C. metro area," US LBM President and CEO L.T. Gibson said.
