Capabilities
Our company is organized into three business groups: Industrial Services, Large Fabrication and Government and Maritime
Industrial services
Rhoads serves commercial customers in a variety of industries such as paper, packaging and food & beverage with end-to-end millwrighting, mechanical, piping and fabrication support. Located at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, Rhoads ensures your operation survives and thrives with 24/7 emergency support, in-field service and expert millwrighting and rigging, all supported by a long history of providing superior project management. Shut-down work and solving a customer’s unique challenges are the mainstays of what we do. Our large level of in-stock material allows us to turn requests around quickly, while our in-house custom metal fabrication capabilities provide us with the ability to effectively meet a company’s unique needs. On-site paint and blast facilities (16,000 SF) provide the means to blast, paint and coat both directly for customers, as well as to complement our fabricated items. Blast and paint services can also be provided at the customer’s site. More

Rhoads’ team includes a workforce highly-skilled in large custom fabrication, large assembly, pipe-fitting, equipment installation and overall mechanical support that works collaboratively with our management and consultant team that provide proven expertise in the industry knowledge, project management, contracting, quality management, and accounting practices needed to excel in the federal defense industry and beyond.
