Top Notch

Josh and his team recently replaced six windows and our siding. They were timely, professional and displayed great workmanship. I would highly recommend them for your home projects. Unlike many others, Josh responded to calls and emails quickly. He went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Top notch!

Timely, Responsive & Professional

I recently retained Acumen Renovations to replace 7 windows and some siding on my home due to hail damage. I wish I'd found them earlier because working with Josh and his crew was so easy compared to my work with other contractors for the repairs. From start to finish, Josh was timely, responsive and professional. He explained the project, showed me numerous siding samples to try and match our existing siding, and went out of his way to be helpful. When the crew showed up to do the work, they were on time, polite and cleaned up everything. Great group of guys! They had to remove trim inside the house to install the windows, and I was amazed that they didn't damage the walls when they removed the trim. They clearly took their time and we're very careful. The finished product looks great, and I will definitely use Acumen Renovations again if I need help with anything.

Great Communication

I recently hired Joshua and his team to change out 15 windows and 2 patio doors. I was highly impressed by the quality of work and professionalism of Joshua and his team. The team did a great job with all of the renovations, completed the work in a timely manner, and cleaned up everything very well at the end. From start to finish, Joshua provided excellent customer service. The company takes pride in their work, and did not charge a penny until after the job was completed. Throughout the entire process, Joshua was great at communicating. He sent frequent updates and was patient in explaining all of the steps. Joshua and his team did an amazing job and was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend!”

These guys are AWESOME!

Seriously, Acumen Renovations did an amazing job on my house. Cleanliness - Every night they would tidy up. Nothing was left in the yard and there was no debris from day to day. When they were finished, they left the yard and all work areas pristine. I have NEVER had a crew keep everything this tight. Quality - I have an older house that needed a lot of work. There were issues that they encountered and I was worried that the solution would be to just hide it under siding. That was never the case. They went above and beyond in fixing the problem patches on the house and making sure the job was done 100% right. Cost - Acumen was the best bang for my buck I could find. At Josh's suggestion I created bid sheet so that everyone was bidding on the same thing. There was no comparison! Professional - Josh came out and bid the house. He also gave me a lot of really great advice on the project that a lot of the time was probably detrimental to him increasing his bid price. The whole way I really felt like we were doing the RIGHT thing for the house. I never felt up sold or like we were doing it the cheap way. If you are looking for a company to do your house or business renovations, this is the one you are looking for.

Excellence & Pride

I rarely provide a recommendation to a business or service provider. Excellence and pride in workmanship are virtues that are difficult to find these days. I found these virtues alive and well in my recent experience with Todd and the guys from Acumen Renovations. Todd was professional in every way. He came to our home several times to discuss plans and design details for our new pergola. On the day the pergola was built, he and his crew were very patient with me in determining just the right location for the pergola. His crew was courteous and professional and the quality of the workmanship was outstanding. If you are considering a project of any kind, I can't recommend Acumen Renovations enough

Hired Again!

Acumen recently installed several very large windows in my home and they did a fantastic job. From the first consultation meeting to the final project cleanup Josh was very clear in his approach, focused on customer desires, and professional in both workmanship and engagement. He and Todd have hired a great crew that have a lot of experience and take pride in their work. I am always hesitant to hire contractors, but Acumen proved that there are still good contractors in the world. Not only would I hire them again....I did!


A few weeks after they completed the windows I ended up with some siding leakage in an area unrelated to their prior work. KC has gotten a lot of heavy rainstorms this year. I discovered the leak on a Saturday night, contacted Josh for his opinion and options on Sunday morning and he was at my house an hour later with his full work trailer and a small crew. They stayed until the problem was isolated and repaired, and even took care of a few other preventative maintenance items while up on their ladders/scaffold. I will definitely be using this great company again
