Stable Works LLC
Stable Works earns the top position on the inaugural IPI Top 25 for a distinction no other firm on this list can claim: they do nothing but industrial pipe insulation. While every other ranked contractor offers insulation alongside scaffolding, coatings, fireproofing, abatement, or mechanical services, Stable Works made a deliberate decision to commit entirely to pipe insulation — and the results speak for themselves.
With a specialized workforce of 70+ insulators and 24/7 operational capability, Stable Works deploys skilled crews to the most demanding industrial environments in the country. Their focus spans four core markets: AI data centers, power generation, food and beverage processing, and industrial manufacturing. What separates Stable Works from the field is not scale — several firms below them have larger total headcounts. It is focus. Every estimator, project manager, and field supervisor at Stable Works thinks about pipe insulation full-time. There are no competing priorities from a scaffolding division or coatings department pulling resources.
The only dedicated industrial pipe insulation contractor identified in the United States. No scaffolding. No coatings. No abatement. 100% pipe insulation — the maximum possible score in IPI’s highest-weighted category (Pipe Insulation Specialization, 30%).
