and San Diego, CA and serving the Southern California market. The acquisition
brings the number of Tecta operations to 12, with 23 locations in total and over

operation in San Francisco. By adding strategic geographic coverage, we are able
to serve our national and regional accounts more efficiently. "
Tecta America was formed in 1999 with the consolidation of ten of the
strongest commercial roofing companies in America. "Our strong foundation allows
us to continue to acquire companies that complement the Tecta America platform,"
noted Santacrose. "We will continue to identify likely candidates in strategic
areas as we grow our local business and build our national account
opportunities." Tecta also recently added locations in Birmingham, Alabama and
