Scheduling was straight forward, the crew arrived on time and worked hard to complete the work in 3 hours. They were courteous and went the extra mile to cover all areas and clean up.

After adding mulch to our yard for years, this is by far the BEST experience we have had. The technicians were so careful with our plants, they were meticulous and personable. They were very easy to work with. They arrived on time. The clean up was more than we expected. Thank you Bark King you made our day.

Fantastic work by Kirk and Cory who were very professional and friendly. They were meticulous and our yard looks great. Tonya at their office managed all the planning and she made everything easy with awesome customer service. From start to finish the experience was outstanding. We will be using Bark King again for sure.

20 cu yard fine bark was spread quite nicely last year. The quality of bark was, however, very poor. It has many thorns such that I cannot touch and grab any without having thorns in my hands! I had to deal with this for one year. I called the bark king service today and the top-level manager told me that it is ridiculous to have a complaint one year after. I would not recommend their service.

The crew arrived when expected, was very accommodating with where we wanted the bark blown in and did a very thorough job. We enjoyed watching them maneuver the hose around. Having the bark blown in saved us hours and days of work if we had to do it ourselves. Appx. cost $2,900 Kenmore

Very well! We needed a large amount of bark; two truck loads. The workers took great care to cover each area to our specifications.

They managed the varying depths so well that there was just enough bark to finish the last bed.

Last year they did not laid down the coverage in all of the soft scape areas requested. After I had the yard pruned back this spring. I noticed they had not even mulched several areas under the shrubs. The mulch does not hold up well at all. I have to have them yearly come and re-mulch. It washed away with rain and leaf blowers easily blow it out.

This was my fourth time placing bark in my home with first 2 time doing it by my own sweat using wheelbarrow and one time hiring someone to place bark.  I decided to go with blowing bark in and I am very happy with that decision.  I was pleased with the whole process of ordering, scheduling, and actual process of placing the bark.  There was professionalism and sense that I'm dealing with people who knows what they are doing.  Cost was also cheaper than I expected.  Initially, I called another place, and I was told that it will about 8 weeks before they could come out since this was peak season.  I then called Bark King who was actually little cheaper than the first place and they also quoted 6-8 weeks.  However, they were confident that they can squeeze me in earlier since they often have extra time between jobs, and they were actually able squeeze me in to do it in 1-2 weeks after initial call.  Three guys came in with a truck load of bark, and they placed bark exactly where I wanted.  One person did the blowing and other two raked and cleaned up so that bark goes where it supposed to go.  Initially, I just wanted the back yard, but when I saw that there were barks left over, they accommodated me and did the front yard as well.  They cleaned up left with beautiful front and back yard.  In all, they took one or two hours with minimal supervision required.  In fact, I was able to do the laundry and make dinner (it was my spaghetti night) while intermittently checking the work.  It was far cheaper than hiring someone to place bark and not much more expensive and less painful on my back than placing it myself.  I did lot of work on the house this year including siding, painting, plumbing, and putting artificial turf (I lost 4 year battle with the moles), and I feel blowing bark with Bark KIng was the most pleasant and smoothest process.

The scheduling part of the service was a bit painful.  They didn't have knowledge of what days and time slots were available more than a couple days in advance.  So there were 2-3 calls needed for scheduling.  The actual service was great.  The blower truck crew was very professional.  They do a very thorough job distributing the bark and cleaning up afterwards.

Fabulous.  We found this company on Angie's list and chose them because of the good reviews.  We called to schedule and it was easy and they were responsive.  They called back with a day and time delivery option.  They arrived on the day and time agreed upon.  It took them about one hour to complete the entire project.  Their workers were courteous, did great work and cleaned up after the project.  We'd like to say thanks to Jeff and crew for a great job.

I was able to get a quote on the phone and help figuring out the best bark for our yard. They fit me in the schedule to fit my deadline. 2 employees showed up promptly, and were very friendly. The job only took an hour and freshened up additional beds. They were careful with spreading and keeping it damp. Cleaned up all walkways and even blew the driveway and street.

Bark King was prompt in returning my phone calls. They were pleasant on the telephone and answered all of my questions. They were able to schedule my service on the day I wanted. The driver was right on time. He and his assistant were thorough and efficient. It took just over 2 hours to blow 45 cu. yards of bark and clean up. The bark depths were pretty close to the various depths I asked for in different areas of the yard. They cleaned everything up including blowing the bark off the rocks withing the beds. I was pleased with the finished product.
