Landscaping Bark in Prestwich

Premium landscaping bark is £87 a bulk bag, and it keeps the weeds down and the moisture in on the big planted borders around St Marys Park and Sedgley Park. One bag covers around 14 square metres at 50mm, so most gardens are sorted with a bag or two.

The larger semi-rural plots out at Simister and the wooded gardens toward Heaton Park get through plenty of bark under the mature trees, and a fresh layer smartens the beds up in an afternoon. Bagged bark is priced from your postcode and delivered kerbside or on the drive, wherever the wagon can safely drop it.

We deliver across Prestwich and the surrounding area: Sedgley Park, Simister, St Marys Park, Rainsough, Heaton Park and beyond (M25).

Yes. Where there is room for a wagon to back on, like the bigger plots and yards out at Simister, we drop the bulk bags right where you want them. One bag covers around 14 square metres at 50mm, and a bigger plot just takes more bags.

A bulk bag of our premium landscaping bark is £87, plus delivery from £20, worked out from your postcode and the size of the order. Put your postcode into the delivery checker and it confirms the exact figure before you order.

Bark is the outer layer stripped from timber, graded to an even size, and it gives a darker, tidier decorative finish that breaks down slowly. Woodchip is the whole branch chipped up, so it is rougher, paler and quicker to rot down. We supply the bark: for borders, beds and anywhere on show, it is the better material.

About 50mm is the sweet spot for a border: deep enough to block light to weeds and hold moisture, without burying your plants. Lay it over soil you have cleared of weeds and watered, and keep it a little clear of plant stems. Top it up every couple of years as it slowly breaks down.
