Impressive member of staff

We were very impressed by the customer service Theo provided when we visited the Southport store. We were returning paint purchased the previous day and Theo was extremely helpful in sorting out the refunds and assisting with the purchase of alternative paint colours. It was only our second visit to the new Wickes store at Kew and it was a pleasure to be served by a pleasant and polite member of staff so we will definitely shop here again.

DONT GO TO WICKES FOR A NEW KITCHEN

On 3rd April 2026 we signed up with Wickes, Southport for a £25,000 kitchen plus extra £s for fitting, tiling and electrics which sum was to be agreed and paid separately to their designated fitter.
Our kitchen was eventually started on 22nd June 26 and now here we are 18th August 26 and it is still not finished.
We have had to chase every step to get anything done and the customer service department is completely ineffectual.
Once you’ve signed on the dotted line we feel you are no longer important.
Even emails to the CEO David Wood remain unanswered.
We are pensioners who have been camping in our own home for over 7 weeks with no water to the kitchen or cooking facilities.
We have now got water and can at least use the washing machine but still the hob isn’t connected due to a problem getting an electrician to fit a new main fuse board to accommodate all the new appliances. There is also still a list of items outstanding.
We have paid for all the fitting services in full and cannot understand how anyone can be expected to wait this long for completion.
Although we chase and chase we get nowhere.
Our recommendation to anyone who is looking to get a new kitchen is DO NOT TOUCH WICKES .
I can’t begin to describe what a terrible experience this has been and the toll it has taken on the two of us.
If I could give this review minus stars I would but you have to give at least one star to get it posted ! They definitely don’t even deserve one star.

Hi Moira, We are truly sorry to hear about the incredibly difficult and prolonged experience you've had with your kitchen installation. The significant delays, lack of communication, and the impact on your daily living are completely unacceptable. We understand your frustration and the immense stress this situation has caused, especially as pensioners. We have sent a request for more information to investigate this further. - Sean

Steve Ambler at Wickes Southport could not have been any more helpful in helping us design and order our new kitchen.

Bathroom Design - Southport Wickes

We made an appointment to have our bathroom designed with Antony at the Southport branch. Although we had some ideas of what we wanted for our bathroom, we wanted someone to suggest ideas to maximise our space within our budget, especially as this was our first bathroom renovation! Before our appointment Antony looked at our measurements and prepared a floorplan before our arrival. Antony listened to everything we wanted, made fantastic suggestions and put together a very comprehensive design for us. He was welcoming to us, polite, professional and came across as genuinely passionate for his job. We also liked how Antony didn't pressure us into making our decisions - he made it clear he was there if we had any questions, yet did not hassle us for our decision! Overall, a very pleasant experience and we would not hesitate to recommend him.

Nipped to Wickes today with my mother to sort flooring out.
Mike was in the vicinity and helped us immediately. Helped us with the maths, sorted the delivery and even helped me deal with trying to find a suitable door.
I was busy today, stressed and I’m really crap at maths. Just wanted to thank him for making things that bit calmer for us.
Also. Probably a delight to work in there with the Aircon!!

Framed and ledged gate

Called in to check size of a replacment timber gate,found what I was looking for,and sizes matched what I required.Was going to order on line for delivery to home,but had see a few reviews saying they wished they had purchased in store as the one they had delivered was warped.I asked at checkout if delivery came from the branch..the guy was not sure and asked for the manager to answer my question.I told her Sofia what my dilemma was.the gates they had in stock were all fine,she assured me the delivery would come from that store and could be delivered on Tuesday.We decided to place place the order with Sofia there and then Very polite,pleasure to deal with.Lets just hope the gate i ordered arrives and is not warped 😉 😀 Sofia is a credit to the company.On a plus note,the air con in the store was very welcome 👌😎

Just Brilliant!

Today I used Click & Collect. Firstly I ‘lost’ my collection code but fortunately Baljit found it for me 🙄. Then Craig offered to help take the heavy goods to my car - which was a God send as I had put my back out yesterday. We also had a delivery booked for today - which arrived on time as usual. Wickes is now my Go To place as I find the prices very reasonable, the delivery charge brilliant and customer care in the store excellent. I cannot fault Wickes and would highly recommend. Thank you guys!

Very helpful staff at the Southport store, Damian helped me to carry an oversized box and load it in the car. I got a great deal on a Ketter store it out box. It was on offer about £40 cheaper than other shops.
