“I spent several thousand pounds on a kitchen from B&Q and also to have it installed. They wanted all payment up-front, I paid... This was the worse decision of my life. Terrible service after they have your cash. Goods were delivered weeks in advance to your home, they deliveries honestly every delivery had damaged goods and missing items, they even tried to tell me the SMEG oven was delivered which clearly it was not and I refused to sign the delivery, then after numerous phone calls this was sorted out. The workman ship was the worst I ever encountered by any tradesman, I'm no expert my wife would agree but I could have installed the kitchen 100% better than B&Q's teams. So many errors, so many wrong/damaged/missing parts deliveries, so many times I had to complain about the poor standard of work and the bullshit the installers came out with... So many times they never turned up, the biggest load of rubbish ever. So many times I complained and wanted compensation, so many hours of my life wasted... DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR DO NOT BUY FORM B&Q unless you like disappointment and heartache - oh and dealing with a Company who say they care BUT actually do not give two hoots about you the customer. The kitchen was to be something for my wife and I to enjoy, sadly we hate it now and more so B&Q. Regards Julian Herring”

“I'd have scored customer care 0 stars if I could, we were supposed to have our kitchen fitted on 21st august, no fitters turned up so tried phoning B&Q fitting service customer care, what a shambles got the answer phone numerous times before actually speaking to someone, to cut a long stressful story, they had no idea the fitter hadn't turned up, they finally found another fitter to start on 4 th sept, in the meantime our dining room furniture is in our bedrooms, our kitchen cupboard items are in living room dining room and bedrooms (because we had to empty them for the refit )due to our new flat pack kitchen and cooker are in our dining room, when it's finally fitted and I ring up to see what they're prepared to do, all they offer is £150 gift card, what an insult, we put our faith in B&Q because it's s big company, obviously money comes before customer satisfaction”

“Ordered and had B&Q fit our bathroom which was awful! The bathroom was over priced and the workmanship was dreadful! The tiling was completed really badly and there were a lot of delays! I would never use them for fitting ever again!! I spent over £7,000 on the bathroom and all they gave me back in compensation was £380! DO NOT USE THEM!”

“""overcharged at the checkout. Complained that the total was more than it should have been. Told i needed to go to returns desk. Spent 15 minutes waiting for items to be checked went back round the store to find the correct price myself. One item was ambiguously labelled - the ticket hanging from it was for the similar item below and its price was behind the product and not visible from the front. The other item was overcharged at the till. Finally got the overcharged amount refunded but took 30mins in total from initially paying and was made to feel that i should be grateful. The woman was rude and when i mentioned my wasted time and effort checking prices she said i needed the exercise - talk about the pot calling the kettle black.”

“Terrible experience with B&Q Homefit kitchen install (2017), supposed to be Which? Trusted Traders approved and our fitters weren't. As far as we can tell no-one from B&Q knew anything about the company that did the fitting. Ineffective and at times rude customer service who don't return calls and take forever to do anything. Project was a week late starting (after I had to do all the chasing) and 3 days late finishing (despite fitters being here until 10pm) followed by an insulting compensation offer - we will never use B&Q Homefit again.”

“I find b and q annoying. An example of my experience is that I need some pieces of chipboard for a home project. They advertise just what I want at a low price. Great. Go to Reading store, very big one, but none in stock. Asked if I could order - no. Came home and searched item again checking availability. No store within 50 miles has any. Have watched item for a month, still none available but still advertised on site as a bargain. This type of behaviour, showing items at low prices that are not available is a con. Disillusioned.”

“Didn't deliver on time so I had to cancel my order. 12 days later and several phone calls later I am still waiting for my refund of several hundred pounds. I will never use B and Q again. The customer service is disgusting. They say the right things but then don't follow up. They have my money, I don't have the goods and I would like my money back”

“I am so disappointed and annoyed ... I made a purchase over £800 on the 2 nd Aug which included fencing panels ...I was promised delivery within 4 working days....it never arrived ... my fencer had fitted me in to do fence on 19th... fence still didn't arrive ...By this time I had no fence as old one had been taken down 2 dogs that can run into rd....and no fencer for when my order arrived.... I was then promised it would arrive today nearly a month later between 8 and 10am my partner has taken time of work to b there for the delivery... it's not arrived ... and when my partner calls b and q to complain we r told is a very busy weekend ... and we have been unlucky and someone would call us back....no one has??? Note to self and anyone else DONT BUY FROM B and Q they are so UNRELIABLE.”

“Don't let B&Q do it I let B&Q do it They did it for £1,800 and more Cupboards ended up on the floor Glasses in pieces shattered everywhere, near my granddaughter playing there Don't let B&Q do it I let them do it They did it for £1,800 and more Worktops cut with gaps “You can hide that with a tile perhaps” Don't let B&Q do it I let them do it They did it for £1,800 and more Gap under the oven where a draw should be “You can't get much in it; you don't need it, you see” Don't let B&Q do it I let them do it They did it for £1,800 and more Check all the cupboards to see if they were safe and not about to crash to the floor He did and they were just waiting to fall Not safe, not safe at all Don't let B&Q do it I let them do it They did it for £1,800 and more I complained, I want fitting cost back Don't go to ombudsman fitter warned you will only get £250 I did, I was offered exactly that! Kitchen cupboards on the floor, glasses shattered everywhere, wonky worktops and fittings wrong £1,800 and more is a high price to pay, Quality fitting, let B&Q do it, is what the adverts say My advice is don't pay and never let B&Q do it Don't let B&Q do it I let them do it The quality and service was poor I want my money back no less and no more.”

“Never use B&Q fitting service. Poor workmanship. Worktops cut wrong,, but worse of all cupboards fell off the wall. Other cupboards were found not to be safe and would have fell off eventually. Difficult to resolve issues. Fitting costs more than the kitchen costs. Impossible to get refund.”

“Ordered a £7000 bathroom suite including fitting on may 19th after trying three separate occasions as computers down in the Ipswich store. We were given an installation date if the 4 th Sept already a long wait!! Now we receive a call to say they can now not start the till the 20th Sept with no valid reason! Husband and builder taken time off work and dog set to go into kennels all which we will be out of pocket for and b&q will not refund! Already made three payments but have nothing to show for it. Customer service appalling!! We are now wondering when or if we will ever have a new bathroom! Think very carefully if your choosing a b&q bathroom.”

“Whatever you do, under no circumstances buy a kitchen to be installed by this company. I have experienced 4 months of lies, broken promises, unreturned calls, delivery to the wrong address, wrong parts and capped off with poor workmanship. Worst customer service of my life. If I can save just one person from the same I will have done a public duty but hopefully many more will look elsewhere. They do not deserve to be in business.”
