Unprofessional manager

I popped into Wickes on Newport Road in Cardiff today after a long morning of hunting for tiles. We finally found exactly what we wanted in your store, only to discover there were only 6 out of the 13 packs we needed on the shelf.

I approached a polite lad named Jamie, who was kind enough to go and ask the forklift driver if they could retrieve the rest from storage. To my discomfort and embarrassment, the response from the forklift driver, Kim, was unbelievable. She had a right go at Jamie, in front of me, snapping that she was about to go on her break and would be gone for an hour actually, “longer than an hour,” in her own words. She didn’t even acknowledge me, just launched into this firm, unnecessary rant at him and then walked off.

The poor lad was left standing there clearly embarrassed, and frankly, so was I. I have absolutely no issue with anyone taking their break, but the complete disregard for customer service was astonishing. Quite honestly, she could do with some serious training in how to speak to both colleagues and customers.it was then I asked to speak with a manager to my shock that was her,

I was ready to walk out until another member of staff, Dan, noticed how frustrated I was. He was incredibly apologetic and reassured me that he would do his best to get the rest of the tiles down while we walked around. He completely changed my mind about staying.

If anything, Kim should be taking notes from both Jamie and Dan they understand customer satisfaction, and they are the only reason I’m going back to purchase those tiles.

Excellent Support from Wickes – Thank You Rhys

I would like to thank Rhys Williams, the manager at Wickes on Newport Road, for his fantastic generosity and support. He kindly arranged a donation of compost for our school garden at St Cadoc’s Catholic Primary School.

Communicated very well, and was supportive the whole way through. A real asset to the community. Thank you Rhys and his team.

Great Customer Service to First Time Customer

First time I’ve ever gone into wicks and/or brought products. I asked the help desk for advice and was massively assisted by Greg W in the Cardiff store on Newport Road. Very grateful for the assistance and certainly made me feel more inclined to return for possible future DIY products.

WAYNE AT CARDIFF is Simply the BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!

We visited this store whilst shopping around for a new kitchen. We popped into a few different stores and we were impressed with Wickes, as the sales consultants just left us to look around at ease, there was no hard selling. They just introduced themselves and said if you need anything please ask. There is nothing worse than being pounce on as soon as you enter a store.

We made an appointment to have a chat with one of the consultants Our appointment was with Design Consultant Wayne Tyler-Grant who was AMAZING. He was very informant and took his time whilst bringing our vision to life. He advised us on numerous things, that we had not really thought about. You could see that he was there to help us design my elderly mothers kitchen and not just sell us a kitchen. He was so thoughtful and you could clearly see that he was not driven by how much commission or bonus he got, he was only concerned that my mum had the kitchen that would work for her. He also recognised that my mother would not need a kitchen that had expensive unneccessary stuff, he knew the kitchen was just for my mum and not for a family that would require a more robust busy family kitchen. Wayne very kindly gave us full colour pictures of the kitchen which was fantastic as we will be able to give these to our builder to ensure that all measurements are correct. Wayne was super friendly. If you need to order a new kitchen and what to be dealt with in a very relaxed and friendly, approachable way then book an appointment to see Wayne he is super amazing. Thank you for you help Wayne !! The Moody & Connolly gang/

Employees should know what they’re selling to give some advice. It would help lots

Ok, I like the store. Stuff are cheaper then B&Q but found the workers have no knowledge about things. I think they should have some basic knowledge on what they’re selling as they could help people to purchase the right items. They was only one person who could help me her name was Linda in off Newport road in Cardiff. The rest who ever I spoke to they be sorry I don’t know

Visited Wickes yesterday as we have bought a huge renovation project and needed lots of things to get us started. We were served by Rhys Williams, who was very patient and knowledgeable. Rhys couldn’t do enough for us and went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed and even packed the van up for us. We left feeling very happy. We will be back very soon! Thanks Rhys.

The Deputy Manager of the Wickes store off Newport Road, Cardiff spent time with me explaining the best product required and how to install it. Far superior service to what I encountered in B&Q Cardiff who had limited knowledge of the appropriate product.

Only put a 1 star as there was no option for a no star,
DO NOT BUY A KITCHEN FROM WICKES !!!!!!
All I will say is that if you hav an issue with the delivery, missing items and wrong colours sent you will have major issues as the customer service is shocking, you will be given number after number which all lead to the same option and get absolutely nowhere, still have an unfished kitchen that they can’t or won’t sort out 🤬🤬🤬

Wickes Cardiff

Competitive pricing and Wickes own branded products always seem to be as good as the well known trade brands. The Cardiff branch is my nearest where the staff are always really helpful, particularly Douglas who always serves with a smile on his face.

Wickes did it for me 100%

Wayne Grant @ the Newport Road, Cardiff branch has helped me immensely on my long journey to finally get my new kitchen delivered and in after the changes I made after the order. Wayne was always proactive in helping sort out my queries down to the smallest details that were needed. I felt he always gave me his full attention and really glad he was my sales champion. 😊
One cabinet was delivered slightly damaged. After speaking to CS, they sent me out a new carcass within days of my call. I love my new kitchen and am happy I picked Wickes to help me get it,
