Client Testimonials

[Drayton's] immediate response and attention to getting the study and following report completed in a timely and professional manner was above our expectation.

We found DAR through a trusted referral. In the process of purchasing a sizeable residential property with development potential, DAR was extremely helpful in walking us through the archeological considerations and evaluation process as it pertains to land development and project permitting. As a residential client, they were also cognizant of our budget limitations and worked to successfully maintain scope on only the necessary work. DAR was easy to work with, and the work was carried out as described on time and on budget. We are thankful for their assistance in taking an important component of the guess work out of our purchase.

We, here at Julius Realty, have found that your inspections provide good value, and are completed punctually. We look forward to future dealings with your firm.

We have worked on several archaeological assessments with DAR. We have found them to be dedicated to providing quality archaeological services that provide information on the resources present and how they may be affected by proposed development. DAR is willing to work with a variety of parties to develop a management plan that serves both resource and project. Their collaborative approach is invaluable in today’s cultural resource management profession.

Thanks for all the help on the Friday Harbor Lab Seawall Repair project. Whenever I had questions, you were very responsive and explained the somewhat complex archaeological issues in layman’s terms. Your field work was exemplary, including resolving the discovered bone fragment with the Indian Tribal council. I look forward to working with you on future projects.

Archaeology reports are becoming more necessary as part of a diligent review of developable land. The requirements are fairly new and the review is often critical. Garth and Drayton Archaeology has always been able to provide quality reports in the time provided, even in a pinch. These reports have never come back as insufficient or lacking information and have held up when scrutinized by multiple reviewers or at hearings. We enjoy working with such a knowledgeable and meticulous person, and trust that Garth will keep pace even as regulations change.

Garth Baldwin came through for us when the going was truly getting tough. Easy to work with, honest and not afraid to let you know what is going to work and what could land in your lap with a nasty splat. We would use Drayton Archaeological Research again anytime....anywhere.
