Reviews of local pros in Mead, Washington

Best prices in Spokane for product and delivery excellent customer service professional drivers great experience... thank you

Fast and easy ordering online. Product delivered promptly next day with a phone call notification prior to arrival.

I purchased river rock that from the samples they showed me was 2 - 21/2 ". I needed it to put around a shed and a little driveway to get my lawn tractor into back yard. I ordered 8 tons not knowing exactly how much I needed in tons since I measured in cubic yards. When it was dumped off at least 1/3 of the rock measure from softball size to melon! The employee did not mention that to me. Impossible to shovel. Call to see if something could be done and they informed me $75 trip charge a $125 /hour for employee to shovel it in their truck. UNSHOVELABLE!

Great folks! Online ordering system is easy, prices are reasonable, everyone is super friendly, and they got my truck filled and on my way within a few minutes of arriving.

The convenience of their online ordering services alone is five stars!! Loved being able to quickly order and receive (in my timeline!!) quality landscaping products. Thanks!

We purchased 8 tons of pea gravel, assuming what we were getting would be your typical pea gravel that you would use in a dog kennel or playground, what we received was 8 tons of mostly fines with tiny pieces of rock, something you would never want your dogs or children to play in as this crap will end up everywhere. Their pictures on their website certainly do not reflect their actual products.
I called/brought in a sample thinking I possibly was delivered the wrong item, I was told by the owner that's too bad and I'm stuck with it. No apologies, no consideration of my concerns, no credit, no how can we make this right, I was just told I'm the only person to ever complain about it, which I find really hard to believe. I will add, the girls in the office were very kind and helpful, the owner is a different story.
I took the product I received to two other landscape companies and both agreed what we received was not pea gravel at all, one even joked saying it looks like something you would find on a beach.
I ended up having to purchase pea gravel that wasn't falsely advertised as such from another company, doubling what my budget for my project should have been.
I have had several deliveries in the past from Bark Boys, but this will be my last.

Edit: What a strange response. The use for the product I purchased is irrelevant, bottom line is this is not pea gravel. A simple google search will show you what pea gravel is supposed to look like, and this isn’t it.
As a small business owner myself, the lack of accountability is astonishing. The image on your website does not match the product that was delivered. The description should state that the actual product will be different than pictured. I have never known pea gravel to have fines and rough, jagged edges.
See my images for the comparison in your product to what pea gravel actually is. This is what we purchased from Spokane Boys to replace what Bark Boys claims is pea gravel.

Great people and products here! I'm a contractor and use Bark Boys for all of my North Spokane work. The materials are high quality, consistent, and always available. The employees are honest, trustworthy and helpful. Their deliveries are on-time and the drivers get the material safely dumped right where I need it.

I've been having issues with my kitchen sink and these lovely people came over in less than half an hour of calling! Great customer service, friendly employees, great prices.

Kalin Excavation just had a crew show up to 27602 N Monroe Rd. and ask to come thru my gate to get to another property. I said no because it isnt thru my gate. They waited until my mom and I left and tried to go thru. Luckily I have a padlock. I offered to let the guy turn around and when i opened the gate he gunned it trying get down to the other property. I ran and cut him off almost getti g rannover when he sped up again.

These guys where great. They put a new sewer in at my place. They were experts. I was very pleased. I give them a 10.

I did not use them. Their estimate was 11k over the next three that were within a grand of each other. They all explained the same process of getting it done. If he didn't want the work, he should have just said so. 11 grand is way more than fair mark up would have been. To me he was trying to take advantage of my situation. If you're going to use them, get multiple estimates to keep them honest.

It was you guys. JB Davis came and did the bid.

JB was timely with an estimate and lower then others we had quote us,he sent out a great team which we were impressed by. They did a great job and finished before we expected. Thanka Dakota, Dallas, Colton and Mike W. And Frank You guys did a great job today...

Highly recommend.

Second time I have used them for collapsing pipes. This one was a commercial building. They were able to start at the close of business as to not interrupt the businesses involved. The next day, all I saw was a 16x16 inch patch of new concrete and some very minor sheet rock work to be done. Just a great company that delivers with a good price and no hassle.

I have never been more impressed with a company! JB came to check out the job, called me with a quote, we scheduled date and time. Guess what!! They were on time and the crew were friendly and professional. I can not give this company enough praise. They cleaned up when done and now I can relax and not worry about another sewer back up!!!
AA++ for JB and my crew! Thank you

kalin excavating went above and beyond any expectation we could have had !!! JB came in and gave his opinion, used the camera after another company couldn't get past a certain point and was very honest with what was happening. We used who he recommended to hydroblast the pipe, and then he came back and looked
At what the pipe result was....
He was able to fit us into the schedule very quickly. When he and the team arrived to do the actual pipe replacement ( trenchless ) they were all friendly, let our kids watch, finished the project in a day, and cleaned everything up. Super super impressed ! Turned a crappy situation ( literally ) into a good one. Thank you !!!!

I have used Kalin for sewer replacement jobs multiple times. The whole crew is great. Mike and Demitre, in particular, show true pride in their work and it shows. I will continue to use Kalin for further work and request those two whenever I can. Thanks guys!

they installed a 100 ft liner and everything went great, other companies said they couldnt even do a liner that long. Kalin did it no problem. My neighbor used them as well and was happy.

JB from Kalin came out to my place to run a camera down our main line since we had been backing up with no luck snaking. He ran his camera and told me how I could temporarily fix the issue ON MY OWN for about $20 or so. He then said the camera was free of charge and to just give him a call when I was ready to replace the main line... You can bet I will call them.

On Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2019, Kalin Excavating replaced a broken sewer line at our home in northwest Spokane. They arrived at 8:00 am with a crew of 3: Frank, Dakota and Colton. The method used was pipe bursting. This involved bringing a backhoe into the back yard, digging a 7 foot deep hole to access the point where the sewer line came out of the house next to the foundation. The size of this hole was 3-4 feet in diameter. Then Colton cut out a 2-3 foot section of the old sewer pipe. Meanwhile, Dakota and Frank cut and removed a section of the asphalt in the alley over the main line. They proceeded to dig a 9-10 foot hole to reach the point where the sewer line met the main city line. Dakota then cut out a short section of the old pipe at that point. Next they began the process of using specialized equipment to pull a new 4 inch pipe through the old sewer line. They then connected the new pipe at both ends, the city inspectors inspected the job, and when the city gave its approval, Frank began backfilling. When they had filled the holes, they cleaned up and were gone by 5:30 that afternoon. There was so little damage to our yard, we could barely tell that a backhoe had been in there. They came back the next morning and asphalted the portion of the alley they had torn up.
Throughout the entire process, all 3 men were very professional, very detail oriented and efficient. They obviously knew their jobs. Frank was a master with the backhoe, going around the electrical line, gas line, and sprinkler lines. They were very concerned about worker safety and took necessary precautions to ensure safety. We highly recommend all three of them and Kalin Excavating without reservation.

I want to thank JB for his professionalism, work ethic, and his kindness this morning with our water line break. I have been dealing with a few companies to get the main water line to my house fixed since 2 Sept. with no action. I called this morning and was told the project manager would call me back. JB called me back and said he'd be here in 20 minutes. He arrived quickly assessed the break in the water line, and had it fixed in a few minutes. I can't thank him enough. Rich Watson

Was just almost driven off the road by this entitled owner on Country Homes Blvd where it narrows to one lane. We were at the light there with Wall I believe. I drive a 2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ, very small. He was in full trailer mode. I was in the correct left lane to go straight before the lane ends. He was in the right hand lane and made no attempt to slow down there were cars in front of me in cars behind me. He literally almost smashed me into the side because no blinker, no waiting. He just felt that his big flatbed and his trailer deserved to be in the right hand lane and move over whenever he wanted. When I honked on the off chance he couldn’t see my bright red Jeep, he stuck his hand out and flew me the finger. The car behind me also waved in shock. I also exchanged information with that person as a witness.
For a business owner to be so blatant, not to mention gladly flip me off in his company truck tells you what kind of ethics he has. When you are driving a rig that big and that long you need to be in the proper lane well before. It’s not like trying to merge in the space of one car. He is dangerous, entitled and ill mannered. Stay away.
