Wickes excellent kitchen designer

We recently ordered a kitchen from Wickes with the expert help and advice of kitchen designer Fiona. The whole experience was a pleasure from start to finish. Fiona guided us through the process with her wide range of knowledge and answered our many questions thoroughly. She is definitely an asset to Wickes and I would recommend anyone thinking about ordering a kitchen then to book an appointment with her.

Great experience from start to finnish the initial home visit from fiona who was very friendly and easy to talk to made designing my kitchen easy and straightforward and all deliveries were scheduled at a convenient time. The installers who fitted the kitchen again were all very knowledgeable and trustworthy and after the first meeting left them to their work most of the week. The kitchen was finnished quickly cleanly and to a great standard. Will definitely reccomemd wickes to friends and family and won't hesitate to use them again. Thankyou

The Product stickers..........

Been doing some DIY. Had some peces delivered which were far too heavy and large for me to carry. (Had delivery problems but separate review. Been in shop several times as well and the staff here at Barnsley were excellent. The star is lost on the product. Got some MDF fully finished white cladding. Used it before and the product is very good BUT and it is an important BUT it's where Wickes put the product stickers. Some were on the rear of the cladding, fine they go to the wall. Here's the BUT and it's that many were on the face of the cladding, some came off with a lot of pratting and time wasted but many didn't and had to really work hard to remove them and then they left a residue of the glue on the wood. Cleaned what I could off but left a visible area where it had been. As an aside the Wickes Instant Grab is second to none for what it is and for price. Put first couple on with Evo grab glue and the were falling off the wall as I prepared the next one. Went and got Wickes and it grab almost instantly and once in place never moved. So Glue get 10 stars.

We met Kerry who did a brilliant job designing our kitchen based on what we needed, Kerry was very knowledgeable in what would work best in our space and was friendly and helpful throughout. The kitchen is now completed and we couldn't be happier. The whole process was coordinated at regular stages by Wickes customer services. Once again we would like to thank Kerry the designer and the installers (Gary and Ben) who in my veiw are a credit to Wickes.

Bathroom design appointment

Went to design a bathroom and wickes Barnsley, and the man (Gary) who did our appointment was rude and very unwelcoming. Constantly spoke down to us from the start. It was like he didn’t want to do the appointment, made out what we wanted to do would be expensive, like why is that a problem?
Also didn’t even offer to design the bathroom with us, which I thought was the point of the appointment? Basically rushed us out and didn’t want to be there. Said he’d email us a design, which I thought the appointment was for us to design it there? Won’t be going to wickes again. Will go to a more friendly designer who is happy to actually help us design our bathroom! Felt very uncomfortable.

professional planning

Kerry was very helpful in planning our kitchen, she listened to our requirements and helped us choose the correct products. She went into detail helping us to select everything we needed to complete our purchase. We were not rushed or made to purchase anything the decision was ours.
She was very professional and listened to us, she went through everything with us to make sure our needs were met before finalizing the plans.
Once the plans were finalized she went through everything again to ensure we had everything we required.
We were made to feel relaxed and have confidence in her.

I used to work for this company.

I used to work for this company.
They are terrible it's all about taking the money ,I saw it time and time again. They treat there fitters so bad they actually told me that if 100 of you left we would just get 100 more
Meaning we were worthless to them.
There instal manager over my area was useless and I had worked with him before and he took the 1st opportunity to get me out.
What a poor all round company.
Stay away
