Nu-Concepts is AWESOME! they removed and replaced a portico as well as my front door. Their pricing was the most competitive and they are incredibly reliable and first rate. I've done plenty of big and small remodel projects over the years and these guys were THE BEST to work with. Continued to go above and beyond. Highly recommend!

We just had all our windows replaced and are so happy with the results. Ken was honest and easy to work with. John and his crew did the install and were professional and courteous. We had multiple estimates and Ken was the most affordable. We have been recommending them to everyone.

This company is THE BEST! Competitive pricing but more value for the money. I obtained 4 quotes and Nu-Concepts came in with incredible service, professionalism, efficiency, best product (not just window but framing and expert sealing), clean, very pleasant craftsmen.look no further and don't be fooled by bigger names and promises of deals. I even received some ideas for making my home have more curb appeal and window touches that enhance all of the rooms in my house. I recommend HIGHLY!
