A 2023 customer said that when their furnace needed service, the company was available straight away at a reasonable price. A 2025 customer said they called 3 days in a row without a call back, could not get a delivery date confirmed, and had been charged while still waiting on oil 4 days later. **Strengths:** - A flexible delivery schedule — a 2023 customer said it slowed for an empty house - Prompt furnace service — a 2023 customer said they were available straight away **Concerns:** - A late delivery — a 2025 customer was charged and still waiting 4 days later ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A 2023 customer said the company adjusted the heating oil delivery schedule for an unoccupied house and communicated clearly and promptly _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURwc1BMMFh3EAE!2m1!1s0x0:0x84c2a83fb4b57aa2!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgIDpsPL0Xw%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Barker's Oil has been an excellent heating oil supplier for my parents' house.
