Tecta America has announced the promotion of Wade Lancaster to operating unit president of Tecta America – Atlanta, effective June 1, 2025.
This transition follows the retirement of Chris Pinkston, a founding member of Tecta America, who has led the Atlanta operation with integrity and vision for more than two decades as operating unit president.
Wade has nearly 24 years of roofing industry experience, including 11 years at Metalcrafts in Savannah before transferring to the Atlanta location in 2015. He began his career in the field as a summer laborer while attending college, steadily advancing into roles including foreman, superintendent, estimator, and project manager. Over the past decade, he has overseen production and played a critical role in project execution and operational efficiency.
“In addition to his operational leadership, Wade has been closely involved with the financial side of the business and brings a clear understanding of what it takes to meet our company goals,” said Chris Pinkston, retiring operating unit president of Tecta – Atlanta. “His operations knowledge, leadership presence, and his commitment to the team make him well-suited to lead the Atlanta office into its next chapter. Please welcome Wade as the new OUP for the Atlanta office.”
Dave Reginelli, Tecta’s CEO added “Through Wade’s grit and determination, he demonstrated he has what it takes to follow in the footsteps of a true legend at Tecta. It’s particularly noteworthy that Wade is the son of Joseph Lancaster who leads our Metalcrafts operating unit in nearby Savannah, making Wade’s appointment the first time we have a father and son leading two of our premier operating units. Congratulations to them both!”
Please join us in congratulating Wade on his well-earned promotion!
