From initial enquiry to completed installation the process was seamless and less than 4 weeks. I made the initial call, Matt turned up 2 days later, we bashed out my requirements and sealed the deal over a cuppa. A couple of weeks later the scaffolding went up a few days before the install team arrived who fitted it all in one day. Two days later the scaffolding came down and I'm currently 95% + self sufficient Very pleased with Matt, the scaffolders, the install team and the Wickes team and all the follow up calls to check all ok.
Great service, gets my recommendation.
10 panels, 1 inverter and 1 battery.

Very helpful, good selection.

We visited Wickes Maidstone this morning for help in choosing the right paint for our garden projects as we are not DIYers. Jim assisted us and was really helpful in advising the right paint and equipment. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Went into Wickes Maidstone fairly late in the evening. Found everything I needed. At the checkout, Jim asked if I was trade and I said 'no, farming'. Jim likes farmers apparently so he gave me a trade discount. What a legend. Will definitely go back if they're all of the same mindset.

I work for a local charity offering wood craft to people who struggle with their mental / physical health. Wickes have been kind enough to donate some timber to us on a few occasions, which helps us to keep our cost down and continue with our local community work to help people gain life skills and well-being. Very much appreciated.

New Kitchen installation

I booked a free home visit for a new kitchen, the designer that came was very professional, patient, attentive and creative. She too time in listening to what I wanted and was able to give a design with what I asked for and also what I needed.

I went with my own kitchen fitter and when they had problems following the design (due to their own stubbornness) Wickes was very supportive, they even came over to my house to explain things to the fitter.

In the end I have a brand new kitchn and I am so glad to have gone with Wickes.

My designer did a great job.
