Smith Brothers

With the acquisition of Smith Brothers in 2019, McLean united two Maryland companies with more than a century of history, strengthening our presence in the heavy civil and marine contracting markets. Operating under the respected Smith Brothers name, the division continues to specialize in the rental and charter of marine equipment – including specialty and sectional barges, tugboats, crew boats, cranes, and related support equipment – serving contractors and commercial clients across the industry. Smith Brothers also provides towing services, marine salvage, and custom or spec barge fabrication and repairs.
