The Detering Company Opens Lumber Facility For Business

The Detering Company, a leading Houston-based building materials company, has officially opened its lumber division at 1919 Collingsworth Street as of July 17th, 2023.
 
“We are excited to announce the new Detering Lumber operation opened for business today [July 17th]. We are thrilled to add this to our offerings for our customers. We intend on having the same service expectations in Lumber as we do in Millwork, and that will really benefit our customers,” said Del Westmoreland, Vice President of The Detering Company Houston Market.


 
“We have a very strong and talented staff who are ready to serve the needs of our customers,” added Mike Flores, General Manager of Houston Lumber.
 
The first location for the new division features 100,000 square feet of warehouse space and over 7 acres of outdoor storage in central Houston. John Sewall, CEO of The Detering Company, said “I am proud to see the team that has been assembled, and I look forward to continuing to be service leaders in the building materials space. This facility will uniquely position us for additional growth and investment in the Houston building community.

Being privately owned allows Detering to focus on the unique service needs of builders. Detering is a family-owned company established in 1926 and is headquartered in Houston, TX.

The Detering Company has been an LMC Dealer since 2011.
