Poor service,

Very poor service. I needed three bi fold door, only 2 on the rack but the third was in the warehouse, they could not give me a time span to get the third door out of the warehouse.and to the till. As a contractor I don't have time to stand around and wait for an unspecified time. You lose the sale to B&Q next door, there is another £300 you have lost. If they had said can you come back in 15 minutes that would have been fine, but we don't know how long doesn't work.

Hi Martin. We are very sorry to hear about the service you experienced and the frustration this caused. We understand that as a contractor, your time is extremely valuable, and not being able to provide a clear timeframe is not the service we aim to provide for our valued customers. We appreciate your feedback and will be sharing this with our store team to improve our efficiency and communication moving forward. - Andrew

I visited this store on the 03.10.26 as we need some 4 soundproof plasterboards and some (12) 12.5mm X 1800 X 900

And 2 bags of Multi Finish Plaster, i didn't want to cut the soundproofing plasterboards down the middle so they fitted in our car, So a lovely lady called Dawn who took my order said we can get them delivered to you on Monday the 05.10.26 which was perfect as we plan to start the work on Tuesday,We found Dawn very helpful and she new her way around the ordering system,She was also very polite,if i could give Dawn 5 ⭐️ I would as she made our day less stressful,well done Dawn for great eperience 👌👍

I booked an at home visit

I booked an at home visit. For my bath room.
We need a new long show tray glass screen toilet and basin plus cabinets.
But this not something Wickes do as we not changing the wall tiles.
They will only do the full every in it really.
As they cannot fit round the old tiles?
Then how can the fit around the new ones.
There is no miss understanding no where on your website does it say i must have new tiles and you only fit full bathroom.

I couldn’t fault any of the staff at the Wallsend branch who were all very helpful. A huge thank you to Dawn for sorting out the problem I had.
Unfortunately, when ringing the customer service number I found the staff very difficult to understand.

Dont ever consider getting a kichen from wickes. Absolute shambles. No after care, no communication, ignoring calls, emails etc when trying to reach out for assistance. 4 months in kitchen is still not done. Avoid avoid avoid.
If anyone would like to look into the issue as it is far too much to put on here please speak with ross at the branch questioned and get my email address

Absolutely fantastic customer service.

Absolutely fantastic customer service.

I placed an order on line and just as I was setting off a girl rang to say that as the items had been stored outside and they were dusty. If I needed them in perfect condition she would refund me to save me a trip.

I decided to go look and have to say I was blown away by the service in store. Truthfully I very rarely shop at Wickes but the service was that good I will definitely be back.

I said I would like to leave a review so asked for their names. A massive thank you to Ann, Nicola and Dawn it was a pleasure dealing with you all. So friendly.

Disappointing Experience

Disappointing Experience

I visited the store today at Wickes in Wallsend and was disappointed by the behaviour of a staff member called Christine. She was rude to both a member of the public and to her colleagues, which created an uncomfortable atmosphere. I found her mannerisms to be unprofessional, and customer service appeared to be lacking. A friendly attitude and a smile can make a big difference, so I hope this feedback is taken on board and addressed.

Our Kitchen Project

Our kitchen project was expertly dealt with from start to finish. The idea of having our kitchen refitted was a daunting task. However our kitchen designer, Andreas Hooper was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and guided us expertly to our choices. All the trades people did an excellent job. Top Drawer kitchen fitters lived up to their name. Chris and his son Jack got on with the work quietly and efficiently. They were both very pleasant and obliging. Chris coordinated the other trades people very well. The work was completed within the alloted time. Customer Services dealt with the logistics of the refit and were contactable in the event of any problems, of which there were none. The whole experience went smoothly and we are delighted with the outcome.
