We are Drake Inc.

A Family-Run Legacy

​

Based in Waco, Nebraska, Drake Inc. officially launched in June 2005 when Dustin Drake partnered with his father, Dave Drake, leveraging Dave's nearly 40 years of grain-industry expertise. Starting with a crew of just five, the team has expanded to around 30 skilled professionals, offering quality structural repair services across the industry.

​

Growth Rooted in Service & Reputation 

 

Drake Inc. attributes its success to exceptional service and quality workmanship, which has led to significant repeat business and strong referrals especially from large grain cooperatives whose facility managers recommend them across the industry.
