Barge Operations

With operations located adjacent to the Ohio River, in an area known throughout the country as the barge capital of the United States, we have assembled a dream “marine team” of highly skilled craftsmen and marine industry-seasoned veterans to build custom-designed and spec deck and spud barges of all sizes to accommodate the industry demand for quality-built vessels that can be delivered within weeks instead of years! We also specializes in drydock fabrication of various sizes.

Our mission is to provide top quality, structurally superior barges built to our customer’s exacting specifications.We will build what you want, when you need it. We are niche builders, specializing in custom-built size applications.

We don’t strive to be the biggest specialty barge-builder, just the best in our category. With over 30,000 square feet of fabrication space under roof and a full compliment of equipment, in addition to our on-site river operations, we can handle barge projects small and large. Our certified welders and craftsmen have GMAW, MIG, GTAW, TIG and Shaw Stick welding capabilities, and our shop is one of only two in Kentucky that is A.I.S.C. certified. Our experience, backed by technical, financial, bonding capability and a veteran workforce ensure quality is built into every barge we build. By focusing on quality, instead volume, we can deliver exactly what our customers want. And our shop capabilities enable us to fabricate indoors to your specifications and to our quality assurance standards. Our “modular methodology” and marine industry experience gives us efficiencies that enable us to exceed industry construction standards without cutting corners.
