It is with great sadness that we share that our colleague and friend, Jessica Leah Deehan – “Jess” (1965–2026), has passed away.

Jess joined WBS Builders’ Merchants in 2014, looking after the accounts and bookkeeping for the business. Over the past decade she became a valued and trusted part of the team, and someone many of us worked alongside every day.

Jess had a great relationship with everyone at WBS and was especially close with the girls in the office. She brought warmth, humour and a friendly presence to the workplace, and she will be deeply missed by us all.

Many of us will also remember Jess for the regular deliveries of her homemade wine kits arriving at the yard — something that always brought a smile to the team.

Many of our customers and suppliers will also have known Jess over the years, and we know she will be remembered fondly by many.

Jess’s funeral service will take place at Thornhill Crematorium (Wenallt Chapel) on Tuesday 17th March 2026 at 10:30am. 

The family have kindly asked that those attending wear something purple in her memory.

After the service, family and friends are invited to join them at Whitchurch Rugby Club.

Our thoughts are with Jess’s family, friends and everyone who knew her at this very difficult time.

The office will not be the same without her, and she will always be remembered as part of the WBS family.

Rest in peace, Jess. ❤️

👀 Introducing the Reimagined WBS Brand Identity! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

WBS Builders' Merchants proudly unveil our fresh new look—a celebration of our rich heritage and an exciting step into the future!

You may have already noticed the updated branding across our digital platforms. Over the coming weeks, it will be rolled out in-store, on our vehicles, and beyond.

🌟 What’s New?

The bold WBS wordmark now takes centre stage, with the iconic 'W' symbolizing Whitchurch—the community at the heart of everything we do.

The 4-brick design is a nod to the four generations that have built and grown WBS since 1946, honouring the foundation of trust, reliability, and support that defines us. We look forward to adding more bricks to this icon over the next 75+ years.

In collaboration with digital specialists EMBARK, this rebrand is about more than just a logo—it reflects the values and connections that drive us forward.

As we roll out this exciting new identity, we remain committed to the principles that have guided us for over 75 years:

🏘️ Supporting our local community
🤝 Delivering trusted service
🔗 Providing that personal touch

Join us as we continue building the future together—block by block. 💪

Spent the last week dodging rusty, squeaky, and downright tragic wheelbarrows on the pumpkin farms? 🎃

We feel your pain.

It's time to level up. Meet the Haemmerlin Crusader 120L Pneumatic Wheelbarrow in Blazing Orange – a proper workhorse for just £125+VAT.

And yes, it’s cheaper than certain other places (we won’t name names… 👀).

Because here at WBS, we believe in equipment that doesn’t look like it’s straight out of a horror movie. 💪
