Being located in Ashland KY gives us access to many types of major industries including oil and petroleum, chemical, coal, power production, rail, auto manufacturing, mining equipment, steel and other metal production.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We also cater to a variety of small businesses with their own unique areas of specialties such as large machinery repair (i.e. dozer and tractor), environmental services, and public and municipal agencies.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So what type of services do we provide to our clients? We are a full service machining and fabricating facility. We can perform everything from basic repairs to fabrication of new structures. From turning mill rolls to custom shaft machining, from designing and building platforms to providing phonographic finished spectacle blinds. We even rebuild gearboxes and crane wheel drive units.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Riggs Machine is also considered a hot job shop, meaning we are available 24-7 if the need arises. Many of our clients run non-stop and can’t let a part failure stop production, the flow of material to their customers, or possibly the power to your home!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We’ve even designed a few specialty items like our tank top drop-in manway guards. These have proven to be very popular in petroleum refineries.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We’ve also worked with several companies on large projects to help refine and bring to life new equipment that has helped them gain an advantage in their respective fields.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Whether you need a custom shaft for your facility, a new walkway to keep your employees safe, or a miner that will move mountains, Riggs Machine & Fabricating has the experience and knowledge to exceed your expectations.

Riggs Machine & Fabricating – Serving industry in KY, OH and WV for over 45 years!

It is with heavy hearts we say goodbye to a great friend and colleague, Randall Peterman. Randall passed away on August 29 after a short illness. It has taken everyone at Riggs by surprise. His humor and joyfulness will be missed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Randall started with us in 2000 cleaning and sweeping around the shop, then later moved on as a driver. He recently became a sales rep for Riggs Machine and used his outgoing personality to gain the trust of customers where other sales reps might falter. His open nature and ease of conversation made our clients comfortable with him.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Randall was a unique individual and had his own ways of doing things. He was not afraid of criticism and would let you know where you stood. His quick wit and smile was his calling card.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Many knew Randall as the Mayor of Catlettsburg, KY, a city he loved. He also ran a catering business, but it was more of a reason to socialize and be with people. You could say his hobby was helping people. Randall made sure everyone else was taken care of first.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Randall, trust you will not be forgotten. Remembered in the stories told of your hijinks and humor, the people you’ve helped and the lives you’ve touched. Rest well dear friend.
