FGIA/AAMA accreditation means ACE meets the rigorous standards set by the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance for legally defensible field testing of windows, curtain walls, storefronts, and skylights.

Same-day consultation for urgent issues. Standard testing reports delivered within one week of site visits. Field teams deploy from Concord, CA and Nampa, ID.

California, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Utah, and Washington.

Ideally during the design phase — early involvement prevents costly failures. ACE also supports construction QA, warranty inspections, and forensic investigation.

This is one of the most common calls we receive. Water often enters at one location and travels along concealed pathways before becoming visible somewhere else entirely. ACE performs a forensic investigation using infrared thermography, accredited water testing, and moisture mapping to pinpoint the exact entry point — so the repair addresses the real source, not just the symptom.

Very often, yes. Poor insulation continuity, thermal bridging at structural connections, and uncontrolled air leakage can drive HVAC costs far beyond what the mechanical system was designed to handle. ACE performs an energy envelope audit that identifies exactly where the loss is occurring and delivers a prioritized improvement roadmap with measurable ROI.

Repeated failures almost always mean the previous repairs addressed a symptom rather than the actual root cause. ACE's forensic investigation methodology uses systematic physical investigation, laboratory testing, and historical document review to identify the true source of failure — ending the cycle of repeated repairs and protecting your long-term investment.

Yes. ACE provides rapid-response construction consulting — typically mobilizing rapidly. Our team reviews the existing drawings, issues corrective details, and works directly with the field team to resolve the issue before it becomes an embedded defect or triggers costly schedule delays.

If your building could face a warranty claim, insurance dispute, or construction defect litigation, the answer is yes. ACE's FGIA/AAMA-accredited testing produces certified reports that meet legal and insurance evidentiary standards — giving you documented proof of building performance that holds up when it matters most.

Absolutely. Buildings with systematic envelope maintenance programs report significantly fewer emergency repairs and more predictable capital spending. ACE develops customized preventive maintenance plans with scheduled inspections, condition assessments, and prioritized repair budgets — shifting your approach from reactive to proactive and extending the envelope's service life by years.
