Charleston, SC – Rudd Plumbing Heating Air & Electrical has been named to the Inc. 5000  for the third

consecutive year, ranking No. 3,146 among the fastest-growing private companies in America. The recognition

caps a milestone year for the Charleston-based company, which expanded into electrical services in addition to

plumbing, heating, and air - a move reflected in its new name.

Making the Inc. 5000 once is an achievement. Returning three years in a row places Rudd in a select group of

companies that have proven their growth is no fluke. The list has served as a launching pad for businesses that

became household names like Microsoft, Yeti, DoorDash, Timberland, and Patagonia. They all appeared on it

early in their rise. For Rudd, growth has always followed from the same habit: making promises to customers

and keeping them.

“Three years in a row is something the whole team should be proud of,” said Robert Hodges, Co-Owner of Rudd

Plumbing Heating Air & Electrical. “We took on a whole new trade this year, and our people never missed a

beat. They show up, do the job right, and treat every customer like a neighbor. That’s what keeps us growing.”

Closer to home, Rudd also notched its third straight appearance among South Carolina’s 50 Fastest Growing

Companies.  A matching three-year streak that puts a Lowcountry home services company shoulder to shoulder

with the state’s top firms in tech, finance, and manufacturing, and proof that the trades belong in that

conversation.
