Reviews
EXCELLENT Based on 71 reviews Posted on B BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. UPDATED REVIEW: In July 2025, we hired Clough Construction again, this time to help us fire harden our home. We needed to replace the wooden gates attached to the side of our home with metal gates. We looked around a lot to find metal gates that would look good, be reasonably priced of high quality, and maintain the privacy we had with the wooden gates. I remembered the great experience we had with Clough Construction, and sure enough, they had exactly what we were looking for. The Clough Construction crew were professional as always and did a fantastic (and quick!) job taking down our wooden gates and putting up gorgeous metal gates in their place. They did a great job cleaning up the job site as well. We knew we needed to replace the wooden gates next to the house for fire safety, but I could not totally envision how it would look when it was done. Our new metal gates have been in place for several months now, and we are thrilled with them. Clough Construction does such high-quality work. Additionally, the metal gates look great, and we did not lose any of our privacy. Once again, Clough Construction did an A++ job. Thank you so much, Clough Construction! **************** Clough Construction does absolutely incredible work at a very competitive price. We had them replace about 200 feet of fence (that we share with two different neighbors) that was falling down. Clough Construction made the whole process so easy! They are fast & efficient and do beautiful, high quality work. They were careful with our trees and plants. They left our yard clean at the end of each day that they were here. And on top of all of this, we absolutely love our new fence -- it is gorgeous! Plus, everyone with whom we worked -- from Scott and Deanne Clough to foreman Raphael to the guys in the crew -- was so nice and professional. We are huge fans of Clough Construction based on our experience!Posted on Chris BenardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Top notch contractor with 40 years of experience installing decks and fences. They specialize in fire-resistant materials and creating defensible spaces.Posted on Mitch CraigTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were very impressed with the level of professionalism, craftsmanship, and kindness we experienced from Clough Construction. We had a project related to our existing deck. From the moment we contacted Scott and Deanne, everything went smoothly. They were fantastic to work with, and the contract they provided was incredibly detailed and professional. The final price was exactly what they quoted. The team that did the work, Quinn and Salvador, are absolute rockstars. They are a phenomenal team. Not only is their work flawless, but they were also just a joy to have at our home—so kind, professional, timely, and incredibly hard-working. On top of the great work, Clough Construction is in a league of their own with communication. After the job was complete, we received a call to ensure we were happy, and a handwritten thank-you note in the mail. This was unexpected, but goes a long way.Posted on Jody MengarelliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Clough Construction to fix our broken fence and create a design on the part of the broken fence that would look aesthetically beautiful and yet be functional and sturdy. They also built a gate so our dogs cannot escape. I told them my idea for a hogwire fence on our porch. They created the most gorgeous hogwire fence to surround our porch and found the perfect gate hardware. The work paid attention to every detail and showed the level of craftsmanship that they produce. The crew, Mark, Jorge and Geoff, showed up on time, worked hard, and helped with suggestions and were open to creatively working with my ideas and preferences. They were also super efficient and finished the job within the week. Their work is craftsmanship and not just something thrown together. I'm super happy with the work Clough did and I know my fence and gates will last a long time! Scott Clough helped with the design and measurements and the quote and timeline matched the work done. I recommend Clough Construction to anyone. Their professionalism, craftsmanship and experience is excellent. We hired Clough again to help us build stairs off our back door. We had torn down an old deck and needed a landing and stairs. Scott came out and created a beautiful design. Then Marc and Salvador came out and built the most gorgeous set of stairs which really complements our backyard. Marc then helped me choose the correct stair lights and he installed them. We’re now ready for landscaping. Clough was always on time and scheduled the job around our timeframe. They are highly professional and skilled. I recommend them to everyone. Working with Deanne is a joy. She is always helpful and clear about the pricing and schedule.Posted on Nicole GrimmerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve worked with them several times over the last 25 years and would always hire them again over others! Their work is solid and high quality (the fences and gates they built are the ones that lasts), they are very reliable, show up on time, and do a thorough job cleaning up the work area after the job is completed.Posted on Fred GilesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Clough Construction recently fixed a sinking deck post and leaning gate frame, built by another contractor, that was threatening to pull down a small deck alongside our house. Scott Clough identified the problem and designed the correct plan to fix it. Quinn and Aniceto did an excellent job doing the actual work on site. We were very pleased with their work on this project as we have been on several prior projects, and highly recommend them.Posted on Christine EdwardsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Scott, Mark, and the team at Clough Construction was an amazing experience. Our project was complicated as we had an existing failing cantilever deck that was built over a hillside 30ft into the air. They re-designed and built a new deck that we now use daily! Their team were so easy to work with through the entire process. From demo of the existing deck to building an entirely new deck on a hillside, the team were confident, kind, and wonderful to have around each day! They minimized the noise, and we have received so many compliments from our neighbors about how polite and professional the team were. We will be working with Clough again on future deck projects!Posted on Lucianna CastellucciTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Clough Construction repaired my fallen fence with the utmost professionalism & craftsmanship. This group is the epitome of a healthy & thriving family business. All their foremen have been with them between 10-35 years and I can see why. Deanne Clough called me at every step of construction with detailed information & prepared to answer all my questions. Scott Clough came out to provide our estimate, timeframe of completion and to approve completion at the end. Rafael was the sparkling gem during the entire 4 day experience. Rafael, our Foreman, is the kindest, most friendly, patient & confident human you’d ever wish to be handling any situation. When folks say “ you choose your tribe”, I would heartily choose all of these Clough family employees to share meals at my table. Even when my dogs came outside to greet the men each morning, Rafael stopped for a moment to return the greeting to them. I think Rafael is one of those angels among us you hear about. You’d WANT him around all the time! He brought the respect & confidence to the job but always maintained uplifting positivity. Closing this company is a no-brainer. In a world with so much turmoil, Clough brings peace. I’m a first time customer and incredibly grateful for the gorgeous fence!Posted on Oliver BurgelmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I received several bids to replace my deck, and thankfully Clough Construction was one of them. They weren’t the cheapest, nor the most expensive, but they were by far the most professional. From my first meeting with Scott Clough, I felt I was in capable hands, and that impression held true throughout the project. The Clough team did an outstanding job, with an impressive attention to detail. Beyond the beautiful deck they built, one gesture really stood out: during the process, they had to remove an old gate. When the project was finished, they went the extra mile and crafted a new gate to replace the aging one. It was an unexpected and thoughtful touch; I’m a raving fan! If you’re getting bids, make sure Clough Construction is on your list. Throughout the project, Deanne Clough, checked in to make sure everything was on track as well. The whole process was efficient and excellently organized. Highly recommended!Posted on Nancy LumerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My second major project in three years has just been completed by Clough Construction, and I am thrilled! It includes a new fence encircling my front yard, a large front porch, entryway and arbor, and a small back porch, as well as two gates and three sets of steps. The foreman, Quinn, and workers Salvador and Maynor, were so professional, competent, hardworking, courteous and friendly - it truly was a pleasure to have them around! I can say the same about every other individual involved, who participated at various times. My experience with Clough Construction has been extremely positive, and I highly recommend them!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
