We were served by Jim, what a happy, knowledgeable man, who couldn't do enough for us. I was going to buy the product online, but because of Jim, I bought in store and walked out glad that I did.

I have a leak under my shower still under warranty
I have contacted the warranty department who by magic say it is not under warranty although I have paperwork saying 2 years
I have spoken to the local store salesman who agrees with me, but after 4 days has still not back to me.
I rang the complaints department today, who do not deal with this complaint?

A very good experience

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.

Kitchens in Wickes Maidstone

We recently went into the Maidstone branch of Wickes to purchase a kitchen, the design consultant Michael Girscher guided us through the process and helped us with our selection. Michael had a tremendous knowledge of their products and was truly a great assistance in our our final selection. The whole process was an enjoyable experience with much of the stress and hassle removed. We would thoroughly recommend both their products and particularly their design consultancy

Bathroom installation

Our bathroom installation started in September 2024 and over ran by a week. We have been left with an incomplete, damaged and unusable bathroom.

The shower leaks, the tile backing board we paid for was not installed, the sink and cabinets were damaged, the cabinet doors don’t fit, the soil pipe was installed at an incline and the toilet is now blocked, fire safety covers from down lights were removed and insulation left on the exposed lights.

The installer appears to have been in liquidation when they took on this work and never returned to complete the remedial work.

The customer experience co-ordinator was of no helped and repeatedly called asking if we were happy with the installation seemingly unaware of the issues we had previously reported to them.

We raised a complaint with wicks in November who have assigned another installer to rectify the issues.
The installer has failed to contact us over the past 6 weeks and there appears to be no timeframe to resolve our complaint.
