While working for private construction firms, each of the four founding brothers of Deig Brothers Lumber & Construction gained experience in his specific field of construction - plumbing, electrical, carpentry and masonry - thus providing a sound basis for establishing their own company. Founded in 1954, the company initially built private residences. Gradually, its construction projects extended into non-residential works, such as schools, nursing homes, professional offices and industrial complexes. Deig Bros. offers a wealth of experience and expertise in general construction work, site work, excavation, utilities, structural work, heating, plumbing, process piping, painting, electrical and equipment installation, while operating primarily within a 100 mile radius of its home base in Evansville, Ind. The company has steadily grown from an employment force of approximately 25 in its early years to a current average of 200 employees.
