Alger Electric

79 years of experience

Alger Electric has been family owned and operated since 1946, when it was founded by the late William H. Alger. In the early years, the company only provided residential services, but by 1954, when Emmett H. Brooks (Williams' nephew) joined the company, Alger Electric began to venture into the commercial wiring of service stations and phasing out from residential work. In 1971, Robert H. Brooks Sr., Emmett's son (Williams' great nephew) joined the company and broadened their expertise into the wiring of restaurants, office buildings, and warehouses. William built a strong foundation for Alger to thrive on and, in the summer of 1976, he passed away suddenly. Emmett took the reigns with Robert by his side and continued to operate the company as William wished - diversifying the company in many ways. In 1993, Robert H. Brooks Jr., Robert's son (Williams' great great nephew) began working full time brininging to the company a desire to establish a sign and lighting division which he headed until his tragic death in 2002. This dealt the company a strong blow and, in 2007, Kristen B. Brooks, Robert's daughter (Williams' great great neice) came back to the company to strengthen its core. The next step was to come into the 21st century with LED signs and lighting. This was mastered and soon a new chapter began. In 2010, Emmett H. Brooks retired and happily passed the reigns to his son Robert H. Brooks as William would have wished. The rest is....or should we say...the best is yet to come!

Welding questions, answered by experts

Custom metalwork offers durability, design flexibility, and unique aesthetics tailored to specific needs.

The difference between a lintel and a beam is what loads each is responsible for supporting. A lintel is a type of beam that is responsible only for supporting the load above an opening, such as a window or door, and transfers the weight to the side walls around an opening. A beam supports the slab and transfers the load to nearby columns, which then disperse the load to the ground.

Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the cost of a steel I-beam, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you’d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it’s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn’t require as much retrofitting to connect joists.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

You should pick steel for your new support beam for a few reasons. While steel is more expensive than other materials, such as laminated veneer lumber or glulam, it offers the following benefits:

  • Fire-resistant

  • Unaffected by pests

  • Longer-lasting

  • Stronger against water damage (when galvanized against rust)
