Stanley A.

Business Owner

Stan Acton started his design-​build home remodeling business in 1990 after working as a Silicon Valley computer engineer. He leads a team of professionals committed to designing beautiful structures imbued with functionality and longevity. From contemporary design to historic home renovation, Stan and the Acton Construction design-​build team are committed to giving homeowners the house of their dreams built on time and on budget.

The problem-​solving abilities required for computer engineering are critical to what makes Stan’s design and construction approach so successful. «Many times, our clients’ remodeling desires are based on a problem or a pain that they’re experiencing. It might be a concern about safety, privacy, isolation, lack of space or simply feeling embarrassed or reluctant to have guests in the home,» says Stan. «Working together to come up with solutions to reduce pain, meet needs and instill happiness is the ultimate reward on any project.»

I own an «old-​ish» 1927 house near the Rose Garden area of San Jose. Since owning the house, I have had three major jobs done on it – all done by Acton Construction. In 2005 they tore down my old detached garage and built a brand new garage/​office combination with interior bathroom. This was a challenging job, as Stan and Co. had to deal with a very unreasonable (and irrational) neighbor to get the job done. In 2011 they took down a wall and did a full kitchen remodel. In 2015 they completely remodeled the master bathroom.
The work was of excellent quality, and Stan and Co. did not run over their projected budgets. I ended up spending more on these projects than I originally anticipated, but this was my fault as I wanted to add things during the projects resulting in change orders.
Only comment I have is that, having used them for more than a decade now, I have noticed that they have become more «premium» and «high end» in terms of their pricing as compared to other contractors. They’re competitive but not a bargain, but if you’re doing a remodel in a house you’re going to keep long-​term (and not just flip), you get what you pay for.

TL;DR: We hired Acton Construction to create an opening in an interior wall. Stan Acton and his team were professional, quick, precise and courteous. ‘Nough said.
We met with Stan Acton a week and a half before moving in our new apartment for consultation regarding creating an interior opening in a wall between our kitchen/​dining area and living room. Stan was nice, professional, patient, and gave us confidence in his advice. We were considering several options, and Stan advised to go with a window-​like opening, rather than a bigger change of completely tearing down part of the wall, as he thought it to be a better choice at least for starters, as we get the «look-​and-​feel» of our new home — despite this opening would cost less than a more major change.
We took Stan’s advice and could not be happier. As we were moving in within a week and a half, Stan made sure to schedule the project rapidly so we’ll have everything done before the move. Indeed, within 2.5 days his excellent team created the opening, installed in a wooden sill identical in style to the window edges in our home for a perfect blend-​in, and textured the wall to match the rest of the room. To save some money, we requested the painting job to be left for us to complete, which Stan accepted with no resistance.
During the entire project, all communication with Stan and his team was clear and pleasant.
We sincerely could not be happier with the final result. The work was done perfectly down to the small details. Especially after hearing unfortunate stories from friends who hired small-​time companies/​contractors without as extensive background as Acton Construction, we could not be happier with our choice. We highly recommend Acton Construction to anyone making a small to large remodeling project, and will definitely seek their services in the future for any prospective project in our home.

We had an excellent experience with Acton Construction from initial inquiry, to in-​home consultation, to their submission of proposal. Stan was extremely professional and took the time to listen to our needs and was able to offer great suggestions and things for us to consider when making a decision. I also appreciate that he always takes my calls and is swift in replying to email. He is very organized and fair in dealing with clients. Thank you Stan!

I have known Stan Acton and hired him for many jobs over the span of about 20 years. I can’t recommend him highly enough. We have an old, complicated, historical home, and Stan has been immensely helpful in helping us sort out what needs to be done. He is so smart, has total integrity, and is a great strategist. He is able to analyze the situation, prioritize the parts, and help decide how to proceed. His work is impeccable, and his crews are skilled, polite, and they clean up! He really understands the cost/​benefit concept, and won’t recommend things just to get the job. He is not the cheapest bid, ever, but whenever I choose the cheapest bid I regret it because the job is not well done, and wish I had hired Stan, who always does a great job and there are no problems. Lesson learned. I have referred many people to him, and they have all been extremely satisfied with his expertise, integrity, and the jobs he did for them. Stan is just simply the BEST! (FYI: we are not «social» friends. I have no ulterior motive in making such a strongly favorable recommendation!)

Stan and team was very helpful in providing guidance and consultation on my remodeling needs. I found the team member that did a first pass review and assessment of my remodeling needs to be very professional and forthright in her questioning. I found that Acton Construction had a very sound process from conceptual to execution for remodeling. Stan also asked some very thorough and forthright questions on my remolding needs to help me make a decision which also instilled trust. I would highly recommend Acton Construction for your remodeling needs.

Our review of Acton Construction is long overdue but so worthy… we hired Stan and Co. to rebuild our detached garage and are thrilled with the results. His interaction with us, the designer, city inspectors and sub contractors was top notch. Both Stan and the job foreman on our project were very thorough and communicated with us on a daily basis throughout, which was especially comforting for our first remodel of any kind.
We also had some unique aspects to our project that Acton was happy to accommodate… when we ran into any kind of quandary or issues Stan had a certain enthusiasm for finding solutions. Clearly the man loves what he does and looks at difficulties as a puzzle to solve, rather than a pain in his backside.
So two years removed from the project being completed, Stan still asks us if everything with the project is still OK. Earlier this year we mentioned a minor plumbing issue and he had a plumber out the next day to fix it and – unexpectedly – covered the cost.
We had four bids on our project and despite the fact that Stan’s came in at just about the middle, we felt he overdelivered at every opportunity and that we made the right choice. We’ll definitely be giving Acton a call when we get around to our kitchen remodel.

Acton Construction is a great company to work with. Stan and his crew have done three projects over a four-​year period on my 1920’s bungalow. Each project was handled with enthusiasm, creativity, and consistency. Communication was excellent, which is especially important with the inevitable surprises in an old house can present. If you are looking for quality, integrity, and thoughtful design then you should definitely consider Acton Construction.

We highly recommend Acton construction. We needed to demolition our old garage, build a new garage with a workout room and add a porch. Stan was incredibly organized and you could see his genuine love for his profession. He brought his proposal in an organized binder with the plans fully layer out. Stan’s bid was higher than some but we were impressed with his detailed plan and his previous projects completed in the neighborhood. I’ve heard from friends that extended deadlines and over run on cost was typical, yet Stan finished the project on schedule and exactly within the allotted budget. The quality of workmanship was top notch. Communication was excellent. The timing of the many project decisions went smoothly. A few things that needed adjustment once the project was finished and paid for were promptly addressed to our satisfaction. We are extremely pleased and are enjoying the fruit of Stan and his crew’s labor.
