New Haven, Connecticut – September 13, 2007 – Woodbridge, LLC., an innovative middle-market mergers and acquisitions firm, is pleased to announce the sale of its client, Florida Waterproofing Supply, Inc., to Allied Building Products Corp.

Founded in 1972, Florida Waterproofing Supply is a rapidly growing distributor of specialty construction products to the commercial building and construction industries.
