Our Story
Built in Louisiana. Built to Last.
Acadia Machine and Tool was founded on a simple belief: that quality craftsmanship and honest work are the foundation of every lasting business relationship.
Rooted in the Gulf Coast
We're a Louisiana machine shop through and through. Based in Branch, we've spent years serving the industrial needs of the Gulf Coast and beyond — from small fabrication jobs to emergency equipment repairs that couldn't wait.
This region runs on heavy industry. Oil and gas, agriculture, marine, construction — the equipment that keeps these operations moving demands precision, durability, and fast turnaround when things go wrong. That's exactly what we deliver.
We're not a national chain. We're your neighbors, and we treat every job like our reputation depends on it — because it does.

Ethan's hands-on background spans the full spectrum of industrial work — from precision CNC machining to field repairs on-site. That depth of experience means Acadia Machine and Tool doesn't just take on jobs; it solves problems.

How We Work
What We Stand For
Precision First
We don't cut corners. Every part we machine, every weld we lay, every repair we make is held to the same standard — the one that keeps your equipment running and your operation safe.
Straight Talk
We tell you what we can do, what it'll cost, and when it'll be done. No runaround, no surprises. If we can't do the job, we'll tell you that too.
Fast When It Counts
Downtime is expensive. We offer 24/7 emergency service because we know that a machine sitting idle costs you money every hour. We move fast without sacrificing quality.
Louisiana Proud
We're invested in this community. When local businesses thrive, the whole region benefits. We're proud to be part of the industrial backbone of the Gulf Coast.
