Types of Barges We Build

We design and construct barges for a range of marine and industrial uses. Here’s what we can offer you:

Deck Barges & Work Barges

These flat-deck barges are great for hauling equipment, materials, or machinery. We can customize the deck size, load capacity, and tug compatibility for your operations.

Modular Barges

If your site is remote or hard to access, modular barges are a flexible solution. We build break down barges that are easy to transport and assemble on location. We also offer modular barges for sale.

Small & Custom Barges

We build compact barges designed for tight marine spaces, like rivers or inlets. Looking for something more unique? We can create custom or even wooden barge designs to meet your specific use case.

Special-Purpose Barges

Need a floating crane platform or a fuel transport barge? We can build specialty barges to suit your worksite, equipment, and load requirements.
