Wickes poor work standards.…

Wickes provided a new bathroom plan including all hardware and installation. Installation took over 8 weeks. First shower tray delivered damaged. One shower enclosure glass incorrect as it was for a sliding door, mine was hinged. Other enclosure glass was 160mm too narrow. Their installer however fitted both!!! Vanity cabinet glued to wall rather than use the securing screw supplied! Shower drain fall too shallow so shower can overflow. Wickes declined to inspect and have advised work is to an acceptable standard. I will add that most of these issues are a result of wrong/damaged items delivered however the Wickes installer still fitted them. Be careful if you are in the Boston area and the Wickes installer is TPL renovations. This installer will charge extra for work not undertaken and will take short cuts claiming he is not paid enough by Wickes to take the time to do a good job. Poor standards of client aftercare and quality of work. Only a small bathroom but bill was nearly £11000.00. Will not use Wickes again and definitely will stay clear of TPL renovations.

Great Experience

From start to finish this has been a refreshing experience.Shelley Grogan from the Boston store oversaw every aspect of this project.She was available to contact and answered any queries professionally and efficently. I would recommend for Wickes for your kitchen project and after experiencing an "independent" company and their quality I wouldnt use anyone but Wickes.

Amazing customer service from Shelley Grogan!

We recently worked with Wickes on a kitchen design and although we didn’t end up purchasing through Wickes in the end, we felt Shelley Grogan deserved a review for the outstanding service she provided throughout the whole process.

Shelley went above and beyond our expectations from start to finish. She was incredibly friendly, patient, knowledgeable and genuinely invested in helping us create the best possible kitchen for our home.

The design she produced was fantastic and included ideas and layout suggestions we hadn’t even considered ourselves, which really helped us visualise the space properly.
Nothing ever felt like too much trouble for her - she was always happy to answer questions, make amendments and offer honest advice without any pressure. Her communication was excellent throughout and she made what can often feel like a stressful process much easier and more enjoyable.

Even though we chose a different route in the end, the level of customer service Shelley provided absolutely stood out and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking at a kitchen or bathroom project. A real credit to Wickes.

No one turned up

No one turned up, I rang the branch to see where he was and they just said he’s probably running late and there’s no way to find out what time he’s going to turn up. As I’ve received an email thanking me for attending it doesn’t appear that he bothered to report not turning up! Not a great start!
There’s no option to add any more details. Also, I’m not sure what else I can add? No one turned up and the branch was incredibly unhelpful.

I was extremely stressed as I had been told to complete my kitchen, a wall unit was going to be delivered not before 6th May... using another Wickes store. BUT, I decided to telephone Boston Wickes, a member of staff EMMA, (superstar), went above and BEYOND, to help me. I now have a wall unit located after she telephoned around for me. This person obviously has great customer service skills and should be labelled OUTSTANDING.
Clearly, someone that most people need in times of stress.
Anyone who has a query telephone Emma at Wickes Boston. Thank you.

Just had another easy trip to Wickes…

Just had another easy trip to Wickes with their helpful staff, can't do enough for you. I was collecting 120 block paving bricks, they were quite far back under the shelving and packaged up so I asked for someone to cut the packaging. Dania came out, opened up the packaging but also grabbed a palletiser to pull the pallets forward so we didn't have to crouch under the shelving and then proceeded to pass the bricks out to is. This was all off her own back, she went above and beyond. Also, the bricks were on an amazing offer.

Great service …

We would just like to leave a highly recommended reveiw for the staff at Boston, I visited the store last week and with staff guidance was able to purchase all we needed and organise delivery. This was swift and id give them 10 out of 10. The staff member who was of great assistance I think was Will. Great service.

Like an Easter Treasure Hunt to find the car park entrance but The Real Gem is the Staff

i visited the Boston branch of Wickes yesterday and the staff were incredibly kind and helpful.
I needed quite a few heavy bags of sand and some hessian bags, and they very kindly helped me by loading everything onto the trolley and brought it to my car and then placed it all in the boot for me with such patience and friendliness. Their kindness made my day and I am truly grateful 🙏
A small suggestion if I may; The car park entrance is very well hidden (I presume not intentionally but it was a real struggle to find the car park entrance) maybe a simple sign that can be seen from the main road would make it much easier for new customers to find it.
Once inside, though the service was absolutely wonderful, the staff truly are the real gem of this store.
One of the hessian bags had a medium size stitching fault on the side, but it was easy to tape and didn’t effect my positive experience all. The team’s kindness made my trip a wonderful experience. Thank you to the team for being so helpful and caring.

@ 17:45

@ 17:45 - 24th March 2026 - The appalling attitude, rude, abrupt and no care service provided by the duty manager at BOSTON branch of Wickes has just cost Wickes Limited the lost revenue from a complete house renovation from the ground up and many more in the future. The service provided by the duty manager this evening was clearly that of someone that has a no care attitude and if was a representative of my business would be going home this evening not with a Pat on the back for exceptional service but her P45 as she clearly has no interest in portraying a good reputation on behalf of Wickes Limited - then on other hand, had I have asked her to pop out to the car park for another cigarette during working hours I'm sure she would have obliged - this probably explains why the everyday building essentials AREN'T readily available on the shelf's at Wickes Boston. Unfortunately with the world of Social Media - bad news flows quicker than good. Please pass on my continued thanks to Will and thank him for the excellent service he always provided in the past as per my previous glowing feedback. Hopefully, Will can be promoted and become her replacement.

Magda was especially helpful and I’m thankful that she took the time to find a solution to the paint situation. Only 3 x5l tins left but the deal was 2 for £44 or £28 each? I wanted x4 but only 3 in stock, I couldn’t pay for x4 and collect at a later date as the my couldn’t order any unless it was out of stock? She offered to sell me x2 of the 2.5l tins at the same 5l deal to make my x4 cans. Saving me atleast £12. So thank you Magda. People appreciate this. I appreciate you 😁

Went to the Boston Lincolnshire store to get some topsoil. Asked about some ripped/broken bags of soil placed nearby and a kind member of staff said we could have them for a small donation to their charity box. Excellent customer service.

Excellent experience

After an underwhelming appointment at B&q that made me feel unexcited we had an appointment with Shelley at Wickes. Shelley came to our home to measure the bathroom, she is friendly, approachable, and gave some great advice. She supported us to pick a bathroom we fell in love with and we left feeling excited. She listened to our needs and we led with the appointment with what we wanted alongside her help.
