Home Improvement Contractors in Cameron Park, CA

The median home in the community of Cameron Park was built in 1987, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the California median of 1976. That is newer than the El Dorado County median of 1983.¹ Most of Cameron Park's housing is recent: only 28% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 3% were built since 2010. The largest single share, 50%, dates from 1980-1999. That makes it an older stock than El Dorado County as a whole (45% built before 1980).¹ On houses from the 1980s and 1990s, polybutylene supply lines, builder-grade windows and first-generation openers are the usual items a contractor confirms before quoting. Owner-occupied homes in Cameron Park are older than rentals: a median build year of 1985 against 1989.¹ Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap.

Housing in Cameron Park is mostly detached single-family: 64% of units, with 17% in buildings of five or more units.¹ A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. 67% of occupied homes in Cameron Park are owner-occupied, above the California share of 56%.¹ The median owner-occupied home in Cameron Park is valued at $667,900 (ACS), below the California median of $734,700. Within El Dorado County the median is $679,900, so Cameron Park sits close to it.¹ With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.

Freezing nights are rare: the nearest NOAA station (Sacramento 5 Ese) averages 4 nights a year at or below 32°F.^2,3 With few freezing nights, water and sun rather than ice are what exterior details are built against. Summers are hot: about 90 days a year reach 90°F and 23 reach 100°F.^2,3 A long hot season shortens the life of roofing, sealants and garage-door electronics, and it shapes what a contractor specifies.

Annual precipitation is low, about 19 inches.^2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants. Heating and cooling loads are both real: about 2,138 heating and 1,576 cooling degree days a year (base 65°F).^2,3 The coast is about 100 miles away, so storm systems arrive without salt air.^4,5
