We're just completing a new kitchen and…

We're just completing a new kitchen and bathroom installation that was ordered through Wickes and installed by Red Dragon (a Wickes installer). The design process for each room was pretty simple and it was nice to be able to play around with different design options when in store to find something that fit our vision and budget.

We were then visited by Simon from Red Dragon who went through a lot of the more fine detail stuff with us, and was able to confirm that our installations would be completed within 2 months of us first making an enquiry, which was considerably quicker than anything other companies were able to offer.

Every single person involved with the installation was incredibly hard working, polite and pleasant to deal with. It's been a truly manic two weeks with installers, plumbers, electricians, painters and project managers visiting the house and working long hours, but every day they left everything tidy, were very respectful and explained the process as the projects took shape.

A few of our Wickes deliveries were late, which we chased through Simon/Red Dragon, and either him or Tracy would get back to us immediately and chase things up for us. Simon would also check in with us regularly to make sure everything was happening as expected and we didn't have any problems or questions.

Special mentions for Vlad who installed our kitchen, and Claudio who installed the bathroom. Easily two of the hardest working people we've had the pleasure of dealing with, and we would love to have either of them back for any future home improvement projects. Also to Alex, who supervised the installations and was super helpful answering our questions and a great problem solver when things weren't arriving on time. We would 100% use Red Dragon again.

Red Dragon kitchen Installation on…

I ordered a new kitchen from Wicks on the understanding it could be installed before Christmas. Red Dragon Home Improvements Ltd came to the rescue.
Simon got in Contact, communicated the whole way through. He has a fantastic team, Alex the project manager, Jamie the electrician, Max the plumber and Dylan the Gas man, this team were efficient, able to work through issues, we had a few, take all the stress away. Tracy dealt with any queries quickly. Most of all, I was super impressed with the Romanian couple who built my 16 piece kitchen in 4 days, they were so polite and humble. Overall experience was top and would recommend to anyone. Excellent service.

Just what we wanted.

The design service was good and gave us a good solution that did what we wanted in a difficult space.

The highlight of project was the service provided by the installers (Red Dragon Home Improvement Services) who did a good job, very quickly and everyone that we spoke to couldn't have been more helpful.

We had an appointment with Millie to consult and design our new kitchen. Millie is patient, helpful and friendly with nothing being too much trouble. She took us gradually through the process and before we knew it, she had our kitchen designed. It’s been a really positive experience so far, with nothing being too much trouble. We can’t wait to see our new kitchen installed and we would definitely recommend Millie. Thank you.

Review for Wickes and CGS Services Swindon

I recently used Wickes (Mark Mewett) in partnership with CGS Services to install two bathrooms in my home. The overall experience was very positive.

Timeframe: The work was completed within a good timeframe, which was important for us.
Professionalism: Both teams demonstrated a professional approach throughout the project, keeping communication clear and consistent.
Support: Although there were some issues with building suppliers during the process, Wickes were proactive and on hand to resolve these quickly, ensuring the project stayed on track.

Overall, I’m very satisfied with the service provided and would recommend Wickes and CGS Services for bathroom installations.

Community Programme

Thank you so much to the Swindon store and Wickes Community Programme for your wonderful donations of gardening equipment and resources to our charity. Children and young people will have the opportunity in the spring to help plant up our community garden and benefit from outdoor wellbeing sessions, to maintain and look after what they grow.
The application was an easy process and it was amazing to be able to choose suitable products ourselves. Thank you all once again; this support really means a lot.

Great experience having our kitchen designed at Wickes. James Crouch was our design consultant very easy to work with and a very likeable person. He did a home visit and was able to provide guidance and advice on the space we had, he was also able to provide advice in other areas ie flooring from his in depth knowledge and past experience.

Jezz

Jez? Delivery driver. The best driver I’ve had yet the oven unit was heavy, I also had an oven sat at my door in the way and too weak to carry it up the stairs. I’m also waiting for Wickes to deliver my 2 worktops and I knew there wouldn’t be enough room for them. I was nearly crying bless him he helped me carry it up. I will never forget and I know it’s only supposed to be delivered to the door but I’m just a girl and I live on my own. Now there’s enough room for the worktops near my door. I hope he gets recognised for his good work and service. I left you a tub of hero’s at Swindon wickes store manager. Thanks again 🙏🏽
