About Shambaugh & Son, L.P.

Shambaugh & Son, L.P. has operated from Fort Wayne since 1926, building itself into Indiana's largest MEP construction services contractor while claiming the third-largest specialty contractor ranking nationally. The firm holds an Oklahoma license (AC440657) and maintains a 4.1-star average across 84 cumulative reviews. Serving the Fort Wayne region alongside commercial and industrial clients nationwide, the company operates under the EMCOR Group umbrella and fields multiple specialized divisions across 14 states.

What distinguishes Shambaugh & Son is their scale and safety credentials. The firm recently achieved BCSP Diamond Status, recognizing over 100 Board of Certified Safety Professional certifications among staff. Their fire protection division alone employs 1,250 individuals across 27 offices, handling nearly half the company's annual volume. LEED accreditation underscores their commitment to sustainable construction practices, while partnerships with the Plant Based Foods Association and major food processors including Chobani, Kroger, and Dairy Farmers of America demonstrate niche industrial expertise.

Customer feedback reveals mixed experiences. One reviewer (Bobby Campbell Jr) praised efficient load delivery completed in 45 minutes with ample maneuvering space. However, several reviewers document serious concerns: allegations of threatening road behavior by drivers, posting of hateful content by an employee (Kevin Bermes), and claims of rescinded job offers after a cancer diagnosis disclosure. One reviewer specifically named driver Kevin Bermes as posting racist material targeting community-oriented messages. These allegations remain unaddressed in public responses.

What Customers Say

Four of eight detailed reviews mention driver conduct issues including threats and road rage. Positive reviews (2) praised delivery efficiency and site logistics. Negative reviews (6) cite offensive employee behavior, discriminatory practices, and safety concerns. The contrast is stark: commercial clients report smooth transactions while road encounters generated documented complaints.
