Placed an online order for a large quantity of tiles (3 pallets). Arrived next day. Realized ordered wrong tiles. Have now been waiting for over 1 month for them to be collected and refunded. Wickes have arranged collection 7 times now, each time failed to turn up and apologized. Tiles have remained on the driveway awaiting pickup for a month (covered). Still no resolution despite now escalated to customer care team. Total disregard to the distance selling regulations (next step Trading Standards). Would strongly advise you don't place any on-line orders with them.

I would give zero stars if I could. Twelve weeks into a bathroom refurb that should have been ten days. We have a disabled child and not had a bathroom for twelve weeks and have no other washing facilities. They left us with dangerous electrics and there is no end in sight.

Wickes give great service until they have your business. The service post is shocking, the quality and install poor and I suggest you spend elsewhere. I have emails and images that support all comments made and will update if Wickes ever bother to reply.

I wish there was a 0 star option. If you're thinking to get a kitchen from Wickes DO NOT BOTHER!!!!!!!! This is the worst customer service ever. 1 month from the kitchen delivery the issue with missing parts have still not been resolved. At no point did anyone from Wickes ask if I've received everything in my order or apologise for the poor service and lack of action in resolving the issue. I have been in store twice and emails back and forth to request for the item to be able to put one of the cupboard together but nothing. No care taken at all. There is no system, no effective communication between staff or their teams as seen. The kitchen quality its nothing to what they have in the showroom. Totally different, and same as IKEA flat pack. But at least IKEA can pack properly their items and you get everything to be able to put the together. For a kitchen that is £13,000 to not get any responses or trying to resolve the issue to ensure customer satisfaction is appalling and disappointing. I was only chased with emails and phonecalls until I purchased the kitchen after that they no longer if you get a kitchen or not as they got the money! Don't waste your time and get stress, it's not worth it. Do your research before!!!

AVOID!! ordered goods for a project to be delivered on a specific day. They were not delivered and received a message to say would be delivered a few days later still not delivered! . No help from calling customer service. Delivery never attempted. Two weeks later I am still waiting for it to be dealt with and a refund issued despite multiple emails. I don’t usually write bad reviews but this has caused so much inconvenience and delays with our project

Absolutely appalling experience to date. Wickes sold and fitted my new kitchen including Metis worktop. Despite the worktop cracking three weeks later on Dec 13th we are still awaiting a replacement. This week the worktop cracked again and is now unsafe as the cracked area is unsupported and Wickes are now requesting a visit from the installations manager before replacing but the installations manager does not respond. Left with a cracked unsafe worktop in a home with young children - beyond frustrated and concerned that a large company like Wickes have such low health and safety standards!

We are thrilled to bits with our new Heritage Sage Wickes kitchen. A fabulous design by Matt Nowotny from our local store in Maidstone Kent and fitted by Judda Limbu and his team, Cher and Kieran. Having read other Wickes customer reviews who have unfortunately had a bad experience, it seems it really comes down to who fits your new kitchen, in our case we were very lucky indeed to have 3 very skilled and trustworthy fitters. Judda and his team are all ex Gurkhas, lovely fellas and very professional. They carried out the whole process like a military stress free operation, including a huge tidy up at the end of each working day, leaving everywhere very clean and tidy. We would strongly recommend asking for Judda to take care of the whole process of fitting your new kitchen. He is able to call on other skilled tradesmen at a moment's notice and therefore avoiding any delay with the timing of finishing the whole job.  In our case, we needed an electrician for some rewiring and new sockets. We left Judda with a key to our home to come and go over a few weeks while we were at work. Any issues he found, like a damaged cupboard door, he was able to order a new one from Wickes, which arrived within a few days to be replaced at no extra cost. We are particularly pleased with the new wall tiles, they look amazing with the colour of the units and worktops. All in all, we are very satisfied with our new Wickes kitchen.

Bought some waste pipe and asked sales assistant if she could cut it in half so it would fit in my car. She said she couldn't because of health and safety, I then asked if she I could borrow a saw, again she said no because of health and safety! Wicks are absolutely pathetic in their customer service attitude

I recently visited Wickes and tried to use a discount code I had taken a screenshot of from the app. Unfortunately, the network at the store is terrible, so I couldn’t load the app directly. Despite having used screenshots in the past without issue, the staff member at the till, Jamie, refused to scan it. His refusal was not only unhelpful but was delivered with a rude and disrespectful attitude, which made the whole experience frustrating. As a loyal customer who has used this method before, I’m disappointed by this unnecessary and unprofessional behavior. Wickes should ensure their staff are trained to handle these situations with more understanding and courtesy.

We had a new kitchen installed in October 2024 and are now going round in circles with Wickes. Many issues with the installer, he stole from us, attempted to charge us an additional £210 for work that hadn’t been done, didn’t communicate well about the time he would or wouldn’t be working, and left many issues that could have been avoided. All the above led to us to lack trust in the installer. Wickes customer relations team took on our complaint but unfortunately the handler is rude and speaks to me as though I am the problem. Now 3 months on and we are no further forward to a resolution. Despite having a good experience with the design consultant I would not recommend purchasing anything through Wickes.

It was very difficult to get refund for a damaged kitchen that was delivered in the most shabby way - look at photos When reordered couldn't receive on the delivery date - so they refused to move the delivery date and told me to cancel the order and order again - but after more than 15 days of cancellation - still not received refund - their customer service is bad

The worst service, absolutely thieves. I had high hopes for going with this company, thinking I would be better looked after but they genuinely do not care about their customers, the quality of their work or products whatsoever. Our project (bathrooms and kitchen) has been riddled with issues from start to finish, the kitchen being the worst of all. Our specialist works turned out to cost 5 times more than the original estimate (never trust your designer), our first installer got fired 3 days before the original start date (after an already long wait of 6 months to get booked in), the second installers left very tough stains throughout on our brand new tiles, impossible to get off without their specialist product which we don't have, caused damage to walls and furniture in our property, left the countertop finish in an absolute state and are claiming that this not due to their workmanship. They came back multiple times to 'fix' things but caused so much mess and disruption at every visit and the works are still not completed. Various items missing from the delivery on each project. The list goes on but to top it all - no one is providing me information about a complaints procedure, I keep being told my calls will be returned but to no avail and the customer team/area managers/installers are all clearly in to protect themselves and have no sense of neutrality whatsoever. Honestly, a total waste of time and energy and a ruthless abuse of honest people spending their hard earned money on improving their home!

Terrible customer service. Ordered a few kitchen units 11 days ago and they said it would be with me 3-8 days. Tried calling them serval times but no answer on the phone. The chat service is pretty useless as fobs you off on the kitchen and bathroom department. Had to give up after being on hold for over 90 minutes. DO NOT BUY A NEW KITCHEN OR BATHROOM FROM THEM!

I thought going with a big company I would be well looked after what a joke. High end kitchen less than a year old Fitted by newly qualified installer Everything that could go wrong went wrong. Now waiting for an installer And being told by customer service I’m not a priority Anger is an understatement 🤬
