The shop had everything I needed and Peter W was wonderful helping me get a very heavy trolley of ballast to my car and into the boot.

Great Service
The end to end service level has been perfect.The fact that Wicks takes responsibility for everything, removed a lot of stress.
We are very happy with the end result. Everybody we dealt with was friendly and helpful. We were particularly happy with Denise the design consultant and the fitters.
We also considered it to be reasonable value.

I have been in Wickes Alton several times in the last few weeks while I'm working on a garden project. All the staff are helpful, especially Guyo who always goes the extra mile and makes sure I find everything I need, with a smile and banter like no other!

I appreciate the customer service that Guyo provided me on trying to find a paint product not stocked in store. His efforts to assist at least lightened the mood of a wasted journey. It was an unexpected welcome gesture.

Five stars to Guyo
I stopped by my local store to get some manure. I don’t usually shop at Wickes if there’s an alternative as I have previously found them poorly stocked and unhelpful. But Guyo was extremely helpful with my purchase and transporting it to the car. Wickes - if you had more staff like him I’d shop there more often!
