They lost me as a future customer and anyone I'd warn against using them.

We had no issues with any sub-contractors and were just as pleased with their work. He's chosen some great people to partner with. Even though the the project is now complete, Anthony has committed to coming back for a couple very minor follow-ups. 10/10, highly recommend and would definitely work with again.

Buzz Doughty and his crew just completed installing a new roof on our home and we are extremely pleased with the results. I watched Doughty Roofing replace the roof on the house across the street and was impressed by the crew's efficiency and work. I met Buzz when they were cleaning up on the job across the street; I asked him if he could look at my place and give me an estimate. He took a great deal of time to explained his estimate procedure. Buzz said it was a two-day job and responded quickly, answering questions right away, and came back with a good bid that same day. The work was completed between the recent storms in one day plus a couple of hours the next. Service started very quickly after signing the contract and was finished ahead of schedule and they did a great job. I'm very pleased with their work ethic and overall value for money spent. The workers were considerate (no loud radio music!) and cleaned up very thoroughly after themselves. I can say without hesitation that it was a great experience from start to finish. Buzz has been in business for 47 years-He's definitely doing things right! Len, 11/7/2025

We now have a custom fitting, better combination solar tube and sky light that required considerable skill to complete on a sloped roof that also had a small dip in how it was original constructed. However, each step of the way, Buzz very kindly informed us of every detail and necessary deviation from what was first anticipated. We fully expected the cost to be higher, but he kept it to his original estimate, which was very competitive, showed up on time and finished in the time represented. It just doesn't get better than hiring a local, well regarded, highly skilled and conscientious company with great employees, all of the right tools and who has uncommonly great integrity. When they left, everything was cleaned up to the point that it seemed like they had not been here. Truly, the very little negotiation needed entirely stopped when the contract was signed and the work was all reliably done with no surprises or any further sales pitches or demands whatsoever. What a pleasure to work with this company! My wife and I very highly recommend Doughty Enterprises. Bill Fritz

As a new home owner, having to do stuff for the house is still quite an unknown journey for me. And…read moreso, when we had wood rot on our balcony beam replaced, I was not excited to get it figured out. I read many reviews on Yelp, and after evaluating many contractors, I decided to use Yelp's project tool to contact Clark Innovative. When you do this, you get responses from many other companies too. Many reached out before Chris from Clark did. I ended up making an appointment with one of them to have them take a look at it. This person began has contract biz recently... and he did not seem confident. The way he was looking at it, he was reacting in a way that seemed like it's a bit of a pain in the you-know-what job and said it was going to cost a lot. He was a nice guy, but he did not instill confidence in me that he knew what he was doing. (He never even sent me a bid) After that, I wondered if I should reach out to these other companies that responded, but my intuition was telling me to wait a bit longer. Clark did eventually respond with apologies, and made an appointment to come look. They looked at it and just the way he was acting, I could tell this person knew what they were doing, and they came up with a solution to just replace the rotted portion, saving us half the cost! (So yeah, I believe the innovative part of their name!) It was all incredibly reasonable. Dates were pushed back etc, because of rain and other things, but I honestly didn't mind it. Chris tried to be a good communicator, and even when he wasn't, I could contact him and he'd respond. He was just busy. Sometimes, you can just tell with people who is being genuine. Who wants to simply do a good job for you, without gouging you or ripping you off. We need more of these people in the world right now. I'm glad I listened to my intuition, and waited for the right company to do the job. And I will definitely use them again for future work. It's really nice to have a good contractor in our back pocket.

They were EXTREMELY rude and short with me. I don't have the words to really express!

You should know this...... I used Gill Greg Landscaping. This review is not about their work it's…read moreabout their hourly rates. When I asked for a breakdown (labor/materials, etc) on the estimate sent, Gill Greg told me he does not breakdown his invoices. When I added a few projects in the backyard, the price he was giving me seemed really high, i.e. spray weeds. It took 15 minutes to spray. Was charged $200. When I asked what he charges per hour he said $100/hr for him. I expected that. He is an experienced, skilled owner. But....he charges $100/hr for each worker. Do you think he pays his workers top wages?......I asked Gill Greg. No response. My project, a typical front neighborhood yard, consisted of digging holes for plants, planting and laying down 13 yards of bark. This I would classify as unskilled labor. I had 3 people working on my project the first day and 4 people the second day. First day labor totaled $2,400. Second day labor totaled $3,200. Be aware if your contractor tells you he does not breakdown his invoices. To me it is a RED flag now. Having dealt with many contractors that intentionally overcharged me, I tried to get another estimate. Manzanita Landscape came out and looked at the job and then nothing. Six weeks later they call to see if I am still interested in getting the project done. I really feel for all of us trying to get anything done with people who have honesty and integrity. Ugh!
