Superb Service at the Wakefield Dulux…

Superb Service at the Wakefield Dulux decorating centre. Fantastic range of products and the Heritage paints we bought are the best I have used, fantastic colour consistency, application and finish. Would definitely recommend these products and won't be going anywhere else for my paints in the future.

Disappointed with samples ordered

I’m really disappointed with the 28 sample paints I recently ordered from Dulux (costing over £70). Each one has a white label on the front, so I have to manually look up every single one on their website just to identify the colour. It’s incredibly frustrating and seems like a basic oversight.

Fast, Efficient help from Customer Adviser

I was looking for roller testers that aren’t available in local retail outlets. I went straight to Live Chat where Customer Adviser, Heena, quickly provided links to what I was looking for in a friendly and timely manner. Couldn’t have been better.

Problem with paint shade

I had a problem with the colour of a paint mixed by an online supplier.

Never left a review for paint before

Never left a review for paint before. However bought some from a retailer the easycare range soft truffle. 4 x 2.5l. 2 for coat 1. And 2 for second coat. When cracking open 2 of the cans for 1st coat one unfortunately had black pigment splotches of dried up paint in there so had to crack open a 3rd ( borrowing from what should have been for second coat). Rang Dulux expecting a resolution but not as exceptionally as Nicola who picked up provided. Nicola arranged a same day collect of trade diamond from the local decorator centre. Nicola who pointed out there maybe a sheen difference provided the free or charge collect in 5l as I wouldn't be able to nix perfectly the final easycare can with a differing sheen. As such the 5l would now be the final coat. So happy and glad I spoke to Nicola today. She was amazing. All in 10 mins call which included Nicola speaking to the store to make these arrangements. Thank you so much for the help it was much better than I expected and still allowed me to carry on with the day of painting!

I spoke to a lady called Jess, and I had a few questions about paint and acquiring samples. She gave me the exact information and even some extra information which was a big help to me. Polite, helpful and knowledgeable.

Colour problem

We have recently painted our lounge and kitchen after choosing the colours we wanted.
Unfortunately, when on the wall, they are both far from the colours on the paint chart. We bought a second tin (different colour) for the kitchen and still the same problem. The shop told us it is due to the light in the room! Surely not, otherwise how can you choose the colour you want according to the light in the room?

Hi Peter, I am sorry to hear this. Lighting conditions and furniture in the room can have a considerable effect on the final shade you achieve, which is why we recommend opting for a tester pot. Please can you get back to use with the details from the can and we can investigate this for you.  Please contact us on  Tel 0333 222 7171 or email duluxvirtual@akzonobel.com quoting reference number GB- 3683929 HD Thanks Helen.
