Needed to find two local tradespeople - one PC repair, one TV repair. I found each on Bark with very little fuss and both were excellent. Hard working, very polite, completing the jobs for a fair price. I may have been lucky but am very grateful.
This company introduced us to a so called roofing company, Roofline, who turned out to be a bunch of scammers who ripped us off financially & did abysmal work leaving our roof worse than when they started. Unable to contact them we have had to resort to getting another contractor to complete the work as damage to infrastructure & internal decoration has been the result. Use this company at your peril
Miguel and his cousin@ *******690 took excellentv care of my large yard today that is heavily landscaped with a veriety of mature trees and shrubbery. They pruned, weeded, trimmed edges, raked up hauled away heavy grange and cuttings. The yard is clean and looks great. They also tested and repaired the extensive irrigation system. I highly recommend Miguel for your yardwork.

Thank you Bark for putting me in touch with the wonderful Norman and his lovely wife from Fork and Nice. I contacted them with just one weeks notice and was blown away by the professional service they provided as well as the most delicious menu they laid on for my moms 80th birthday.
We highly recommend them for a very professional service.

My first session with Gregor and I was a little nervous, not having done any serious exercise for quite a while. However it is never too late to start again, if you can find a personal trainer you can relate to.
My session was good, showed up my weaknesses! It was fun and we managed a few laughs along the way. Today I know I have done something more than usual, a good feeling.
Here's to the next session.

I had no problems in arranging the repair/replacement of fence panels damaged after a storm. I had several respondents and arranged the work within 24 hours and the work was complted the next day.
The work was done by Unique Gardening and Landscape at a fair price. With the agreed specifications of concrete posts and footers to the panels.the garden was left clean and tidy with all debris removed.

Great to be able to give a brief outline of specific work required. Although both have visited the site, at present only the painter has given me a quote for the work. The electrician has to perform more thorough investigation prior to giving a quote. The response was very speedy in both cases, and both visited the property within a week ( which with Covid 19) was very good. Fortunately the work required is outdoors, and therefore did not pose any risk.

Tried to get local cleaning companies to do an inter-tenancy clean. They either said they'd call me back (& didn't) or just weren't interested (despite advertising as such!). Felt that I was going with my begging bowl! Completely different experience with Bark com. Potential companies contacted me and I felt in the driving seat (as I should have, as a customer); all viaing for my business. No time wasters and job done to my specification. Great site for landlords, particularly if properties in different areas. Thanks Bark. Happy customer. 5*. 100%.
