“Absolutely fuming ....I am one of the customers with the cat pee walls ...i took the remains of the tin back to b and q ..who advised me to contact customer services ..which i did ..even though i have the tin in front of me and they are the sole commercial outlet for the store ..its not apparently enough proof ...they advised i need to purchase an alkaline solution ..which they will not reimburse me with as i do not have proof of purchase only the tin and photos of wall and a clear label saying b and q chard ...i found customer service agent rude will be boycotting the store and encouraging my other trade fellows to do the same ...”

“Ordered new toilet on b&q website and was told delivery within 7days. My local store (Newtonabbey)6 miles away had it in stock After a week had passed no toilet I phoned customer service and was told it was coming from England!!! What??? Two and a half weeks later it arrived! This company is pathetic and Useless will never order anything again from these idiots!”

“OMG why did I ever choose this company to install a kitchen for me. Disaster after disaster and now less than a year later the kitchen looks shabbier than the 10 year old one we replaced. I'm really fed up, but do they want to know or honour their workmanship guarantee... no of course they don't. DO NOT USE B&Q - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED”

“Probably the worst shopping experience of my life at B+Q Coleraine this morning. I was left feeling humiliated and embarassed and was not given the refund I was fully entitled to, only a credit note, after much trouble. Most staff here dont even try to help, and would rather chat to each other. There are a few good staff, but its the minority.”

“Where do I start!!! planning process was fine, delivery came on time, all the products looked good and of good quality, then came the fitters OMG what a joke. time keeping was ridiculous, constantly on their phones or having fag breaks, didn't seem to be working to any sort of plan, came home from work to find no splash back above the hob tiled instead, dishwasher and sink in the wrong place, the mess was unbearable and completely unprofessional. my new work top was scratched because they were cutting tiles on it!! had to be replaced 10 days after kitchen was finished. my dishwasher socket has been put directly under the waste pipe for the sink so if there's a leak the water will run straight into the electrical socket. The tiling is horrendous, really bad cuts and joints and my grey grout is two different colours, had someone from B&Q to come and look at it and they agreed it was a terrible job and said I would be refunded for the tiling, that was three weeks ago and I'm still waiting. The whole experience has been a complete nightmare and I would never recommend B&Q to anyone, all the rubbish was left on my drive and the old grout water chucked up my fence which now has to be repainted, it took us two days to clean the kitchen once they had left before we could reuse it, but couldn't get all the old grout and tile adhesive off all the units as it had been left so long it was rock hard. Took loads of photos to back up our claims and B&Q only gave us £175.00 compensation on a £9500.00 kitchen ruined. a complete Joke.”

“Don't use homefit unless you can be at home every day. The fitter turned up twice at different times to I had agreed before the job started and wondered why I was not in. The waste collection team turned up twice when I hadn't been told they were coming so I wasn't in. I took a day off work and waited in all day for the team to collect excess stock but they didn't turn up. When I rang up to find out where they were I was told they didn't come because they 'didn't have any paperwork'. Also, I was told I would be without cooking facilities for 3 days and the job would take 5 days, but both actually took 15 days.”

“Waiting months for a door for a kitchen. Now it's lost in the post with parcel force. I contacted bnq and they say systems down. Typical. I'm not useing them again and stop fitting kitchens as customers won't pay as kitchen is not finished.”

“Had a bathroom fitted by B n Q which started leaking. After almost 4-6 calls per day and 2 full weeks later someone came to inspect the leak. This turned out to be a visual inspection with zero attempts at finding the fault. We were told a PM had to come to take a look next. The PM came 5 days later. A third visit was organised 3 days later, and thus installer finally tried to find the fault and offered a temporary fix so we could use the bath. 3 days later we noticed the leak still continued. So we phoned in and we have been advised by customer service not to use the shower. If you need a bath use the sink! Or go to your friend's house and shower! And then the rep went on to mention how she couldn't believe that the temporary fix didn't work and even had the audacity to mention the fix may have been tampered with! I don't understand how such people even have jobs! They clearly don't give a damn about their customers, they'd like to do the bare minimum and get away with it. It's really appalling and frustrating. I phone in every day over 5 times to no avail. Never ever go with B&Q. I regret not listening to the other reviews on them. Stupid me!”

“Wrong item delivered, no refund until incorrect item is collected by DX. Original item not in stock so order can't be fulfilled, but still no refund. Not my fault, but now my problem as no ordered item and no money. It's not good in any way”

“Ordered a garden furniture set, what arrived was a table nothing like the one ordered and no chairs. Went through customer support, apparently chairs unavailable and I'm left with a table I can't use or store, no chairs and can't have my money refunded until table they wrongly delivered is collected by them. So no furniture , no refund. The chairs are unavailable but still can be ordered and paid for online ? It's not good ....”

“My parents with a combined age of 168 years had a bathroom installed a few years ago by B&Q. Cost £8000. The guarantee is to expire next April. The floor tiles have kept cracking since installation and my 85 year old mother finally insisted there was a problem with the sub floor. B and Q returned and upon lifting it appears the floor boards AND joists have rotted. B & Q admit this is entirely due to their faulty workmanship. So far my parents have been without a bathroom sink of any sort for six weeks and now without a shower (in a one bathroom house), for over a week. B&Q are refusing to extend the guarantee after they reinstate the bathroom. Based on workmanship to date this does not inspire confidence. I intend to go to BBC watchdog or similar - I cannot believe the constant procrastination and delays and blatant disregard for elderly peoples basic hygiene. Disgusting - the MD of B&Q would never be treated like this.”

“Please just avoid I've had a nightmare with B&q I've spend 6k on a kitchen and extras e.g doors tiles floor in the last 8months as soon as they had my money I knew I had made a mistake with the failed deliverys bad communications constant out of stock message one day before delivery then when I thought I didn't have to have anything else to do with b&q my fridge broke after 4 months the repair team took a month to come to terms that they could not fix the fridge when I rang up to complain to b&q they could not care no compensation no apologys so now I'm looking to escalate things by going to the appropriate authority's and complaining please what ever you do don't deal with b&q no matter how much you spend they can not organise a delivery do not take responsibly and are incapble or making good I nor my family will being stepping in to a b&q again”

“We contracted with B and Q to renew our ensuite last October. The job has just been finished 5 months late. An out of date catalogue, appalling communication, haphazard systems and chaotic deliveries all added to the problem. Looking at other reviews I wonder why on earth we went to B and Q and regret our decision. We'll never come back or recommend B and Q to anyone. I wish we'd gone to Wickes.”

“I paid for the bathroom in May 2016, however it took them 6 months to find a fitter, this didn't go particularly well, but I was pleased with the finished bathroom, however roll on 7 months and the shower head has split, the sink plug hole has come apart and the now the toilet won't flush and they can't get a fitter under the guarantee to come out until next week!! I cannot warn you enough, DO NOT buy from B and Q”

“after I bought a fridge, it did broke in less then 1year, when I did try to contact customer support to talk about it, I had to wait 30min to receive an answer that the model is to old and I have to contact the seller, when did try to phone the seller, they did try to put me into contact with kitchen service, no one answer, I left my phone no, nobody did call me back in 3 days!!!!! so I had to go personally to them to talk about problem, when I did told them I am unhappy with their service and ask for refund for broken fridge, they did tell me that the manufacturer have to deal with it, when I do call manufacture, they did told me that is seller business...B7Q workers have no Idea how to deal with customer problems, so they just try to pass the customer to somebody else, avoid to buy from them anything!!!!”

“Their kitchen service is a joke. Poor planning, poor communication, incorrect delivery, failure to refund where needed. Still chasing them but as you never get through to the same person twice it is taking a while.”

“We had a bathroom fitted, despite pointing out pipes were loose over two week ago we have had no response. Unsurprisingly the leak is now worse and flooding our newly laid carpets in the hall. Clearly amateur fitters who don't check work. Had kitchen done st same time by a local company with no problems. Don't use B&Q they don't provide after care service and use shoddy cheap fitters. Only interested in your money”
