We provide safe, reliable and cost-effective access solutions for the construction industry

Contractors Access Equipment formed in 2001, primarily providing suspended scaffold to the Chicago area.  A few years later, the company expanded, developing branches in Dallas and Tampa. In 2009, the company acquired three locations of Direct Scaffold Services which are in Nashville, Jackson, and Birmingham.  Since then, the company has added CAE branches in Miami, Orlando, Austin, Houston, and Milwaukee and a DSS branch was added in Decatur, AL; Atlanta, GA; and Mobile, AL.
