Customers say: Quality work

"They responded quickly to my request. This work was done on a rental property so I cannot comment on the work quality. I am sure it's fine, they cleaned the gutters. I will be using them again in the Fall."

Small jobs welcome

Hello, I am a recently retired educator and coach. I learned building trades from my father as a child and worked with him in construction for 8 years building houses from the ground up including plumbing, wiring, concrete, cabinetry, etc. from framing to finish. I have completed my own additions, remodeling, and repairs for the last 30 years. I'm a detail oriented perfectionist that enjoys working with my hands and providing a quality, reasonably priced service.

"The owner came to my house the day after my initial contact and provided an estimate. His price was 40% lower than the other estimate I received. We scheduled a date and he and his crew completed the job on time and precisely as promised. Stain used was a professional grade product from Sherwin Williams. The house and lighting fixtures, conduit, etc. were all completely masked off. There was not one spot of overspray, drips, or any other defects when they were done. All edge lines were clean and crisp. A beautiful job! Highly recommended.

"Beyond expectations! The landscape had overgrown with wisteria and other vines but Caden and his crew tackled it with some hard work. They were constantly in contact with us to ensure things were being done to our satisfaction. Everything they did included making sure that the yard waste was neatly piled and hauled off. We will definitely use CG Ace Contracting again!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes. Freestanding or floating decks are exactly what the name implies—structures with their own support beams. You can build a deck yourself and place it next to a house for the illusion of a connected deck without the hassle. Or you can construct it in a separate part of your yard for a dedicated outdoor entertainment space. For the purpose of removing a freestanding deck, the steps are the same as an attached deck, but you don’t have to cut the deck away from the home.

A ground-level deck is a great idea for an outdoor space because it’s easy to access and doesn't require stairs or railings. You can install a ground-level deck near your home or farther away on your property. You can place a ground-level deck around a pool, fire pit, or near a view such as a lake, pond, or area of trees.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

In most cases, there should be a small gap between the house and the deck, usually no more than ½ to ¾ of an inch. This space allows water and moisture to flow through instead of pooling against the side of your house. It also lets flashing protect your siding from runoff, which is one of the most common issues with decks.

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems.
