Quick installation and good customer service but poor guarantee

Quick installation and good response time from customer service but multiple parts have failed and the 2 year workmanship guarantee does not cover much and they will state that it was damaged by yourself, parts are only covered for a year and this is poorly communicated during booking. Part of the reason i went to wickes and paid their premium price was for the extended guarantee but this ended up being a bad and expensive choice and did not cover much at all.

Luca was exceptionally helpful

Luca was exceptionally helpful with suggestions after listening to our ideas and what we would like to incorporate into the design of the ensuite. He showed us several options and we discussed what would work well and look good. The result was a design in our budget and that will look great.

We wouldn’t use Wickes again

Bathroom designer was helpful, we used approved installer, problems with installation from start to finish, delivery attempted on wrong day, wrong product delivered and installed, pipework for shower placed incorrectly, necessitating removal of freshly installed tiles, hairline crack caused toilet to leak. We were very disappointed with Wickes customer service. At one point Wickes sent a different installer to conduct a survey even though a date to commence works had been agreed.

We're truly sorry to hear about the numerous issues you experienced with your bathroom installation, from the incorrect deliveries and product installation to the pipework problems and the cracked toilet. This is certainly not the standard of service we aim to provide. We've sent you a request for more information, so we can investigate this further for you, Mr Taylor. - AB

Kitchen Design

We recently had our kitchen designed by Luca at Wickes, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very first consultation, Luca was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive to our needs and ideas.

He took the time to understand exactly what we wanted from our new kitchen and came up with a design that perfectly balanced style, practicality, and budget. His attention to detail was outstanding, and he offered creative suggestions that we hadn't considered but have made a huge difference to the overall design.

Luca was patient throughout the process, answering all of our questions and making adjustments whenever needed to ensure everything was exactly right. His expertise and enthusiasm gave us complete confidence in our choices.

The final design exceeded our expectations and has transformed our vision into a beautiful and functional kitchen that we are genuinely excited about. We would highly recommend Luca to anyone looking for a kitchen designer who is professional, talented, and committed to delivering excellent customer service.

Thank you, Luca, for making the whole process enjoyable and stress-free!

Luca was great!

Luca was absolutely brilliant. He is down to earth, patient and really cares about his customers. He accommodated my late design changes being really supportive as soon as he returned from holiday as his colleagues hadn’t been as clued up when he was away. Added to the fact that he had some excellent design ideas in the first place which inspired me to renovate my kitchen and both bathrooms I am so pleased I had Luca for my design consultant, highly recommend him he is a credit to Wickes!

Stanton Harcourt School Community Project

We have had a great experience using Wickes' Community Project service. Michelle went above and beyond to contact our school and provide us with the resources that we need as a small school. Thanks to them we will be able to repaint our classrooms and have guttering for our Early Years setting too. Many thanks!

Probably the best DIY store in the UK…

Probably the best DIY store in the UK and would kick arse if they expanded to Scandinavia!

After tenants went out of their way to destroy the property on the way out and was quoted between 35k and 60k to have the place redone was thinking just walk away from it and sell up. I’m very lucky I have a good set of friends that all said they would help with DIY. Looked at all the big stores and smaller independent shops, Wickes ended up getting most my money 25k which covered new kitchen, pantry, laminated hard flooring in five rooms, all new curtain rails, toilet and sink, eight doors, and a list of equipment that will last a long while, the Botley branch was the main one I went to, great staff always giving good advice and what tools to use, one even gave me a cool YouTube channel to check out for ideas and cost cutting savers. If you want a great company with great deals all the time for your DIY highly recommend Wickes.
