Our Story

Tex-Oma Builders Supply has been a trusted leader in the construction materials industry since its founding in 1958 by Harold Lobley. Over the years, the company has evolved, building on a legacy of quality and service. After 13 years working alongside Harold, Bobby Reese branched out and established Reese Builders Hardware Co. in 1973. It was during this time that Bobby hired a young Greg Cox as a part-time employee while he was still in college.

In 1984, Bobby recognized Greg’s potential and made him a part-owner of Reese Builders Hardware. Greg, always forward-thinking, recognized that the door hardware industry was rapidly changing. With a keen eye on the future, he believed that electronic security systems were the key to staying competitive. In 1999, Greg took the bold step of purchasing both Tex-Oma Builders Supply and Reese Builders Hardware Co. and merged the two companies together, marking a new chapter of growth and innovation for the company.

By 2003, Tex-Oma Builders Supply expanded its reach with the acquisition of West Texas Builders in Abilene, TX, followed by the purchase of Crelco Door and Hardware in Sherman, TX, in 2005. During this time, Fred Sharp, whom Greg had hired right out of college in 1997, played an integral role in the company’s growth.

Fred eventually became the Vice President of Operations and, in 2018, was appointed Vice President overseeing the entire company.

In 2018, after receiving offers from potential buyers, Greg made a decision to retire and sell Tex-Oma Builders Supply back to its employees. This made the company one of the few Employee Stock Ownership Companies (ESOP) in the Wichita Falls area, ensuring that the company’s culture and values would remain intact. Under employee ownership, the company has continued to thrive, acquiring three Overhead Door locations in Denison, TX, Lawton, OK, and Abilene, TX.

Today, Tex-Oma Builders Supply proudly serves the entire state of Texas and many surrounding states with over 100 employees. We remain committed to our roots, providing quality service, innovative solutions, and a customer-first approach that has been the hallmark of our success.

As of October 1, 2024, Greg Cox retired and passed the torch to Fred Sharp. Under Fred’s leadership, Tex-Oma Builders Supply is poised to continue its legacy of excellence, growth, and community involvement for many years to come.
