We booked an in-store bathroom design appointment, which on the website says is to “Meet a Design Consultant and be inspired by our ranges and products and start your 3d plan design” but we got there, was given a brochure and told to look around, on our own. No consultation at all and a waste of our time.

Oh my goodness

Oh my goodness - what amazing service! I took back a fence post which was too short. The longer post I needed wouldn't fit in my car. Inside of 10mins, Sian (on the till) had organised a refund, ordered me a longer post and sorted out same day home delivery. And the post arrived at mine just over 2hrs later. Sian was funny, efficient and friendly. She turned a problem into a solution and made the whole thing a pleasant experience. She is a total asset to your business.

Customer Service On Top

I went shopping today for a door and some timber. There were some chaps working a timber trolley and they asked me if I needed any assistance. I spoke to Jake and he gave me all the help I needed. Nothing was too much trouble at all. Thank you for making my shopping experience so great!

I went into Wickes in Guildford today

I went into Wickes in Guildford today, not knowing what I was looking for! I was helped by a lovely chap called Neil, who had great knowledge in finding the stuff I needed ( I'm no good at D.I.Y.! ) It was nice to be served with a smile. I shall definitely be using Wickes as my D.I.Y. Store from now on.
