ABOUT AMERICAN FABRICATION

American Fabrication began in 1980 when a young Kevin Russell had a dream of owning his own steel and fabrication business. He had been working in the industry since he was 15 years old and spent countless hours working toward the day when his version of the American Dream would become a reality. The first building he owned was simply a 25' x 75' awning with only two machines, a shear, and a press. It took a year until he had enough work to justify hiring his first employee. Now, American Fabrication sits on 8 acres of land with over 40 employees.  

American Fabrication was founded on a love of community and customer service, and to this day we pride ourselves on maintaining the highest level of customer satisfaction and doing our part to serve the community we love. For example, Kevin and his employees all donated time, materials, and labor to make memorial crosses for the victims of the Route 91 Harvest Festival.

Kevin wanted a business that was not about simply the business at hand - he dreamt of a steel fabrication shop that was based on family values and that was running that way. Though American Fabrication has grown from simply an awning to a bonafide steel and welding shop, decades later it is still running as a business with core family values.
