Bathroom installation

Our bathroom installation started in September 2024 and over ran by a week. We have been left with an incomplete, damaged and unusable bathroom.

The shower leaks, the tile backing board we paid for was not installed, the sink and cabinets were damaged, the cabinet doors don’t fit, the soil pipe was installed at an incline and the toilet is now blocked, fire safety covers from down lights were removed and insulation left on the exposed lights.

The installer appears to have been in liquidation when they took on this work and never returned to complete the remedial work.

The customer experience co-ordinator was of no helped and repeatedly called asking if we were happy with the installation seemingly unaware of the issues we had previously reported to them.

We raised a complaint with wicks in November who have assigned another installer to rectify the issues.
The installer has failed to contact us over the past 6 weeks and there appears to be no timeframe to resolve our complaint.

Lise has been exceptional in helping me redesign my bathrooms. Her service didn’t stop at just the cabinets she also helped upgrade the door handles and taps, choose tiles and paint.
I was extremely impressed and her friendliness really does make you feel at ease.

The culture at Wickes is Brilliant

I have been going to Wickes in Maidstone virtually since it opened there, well over 30 years ago. I have always found the staff, supportive and helpful which suggest there is a good traing structure within the group. A recent event reinforced thisview point. I was dealing with a blocked drain, with loads of hair causing the blockage. A leading staff member - Tracy Whom I have known for years came over took me straight to the part of the store which had the solution for my problem and Tracy advised me and made sure I knew how to use the chemicals.
I am 83 and gosh I was realy greatful. The culture at Wickes is brilliant.

A new extension made easier

Designing and building a new extension is very stressful but Siobhan in store helped to ease some of that stress, she made sure we had everything we wanted and we felt like she helped us to get the best for our budget. Thanks for your excellent service and we will certainly be back!

We always use Wickes

We always use Wickes, it’s our go to for trade and diy. Tracy, Kevin, Marie/a are always willing to help. To be honest; we’ve got to know most of the staff as we’ve been coming here for years and they’re all very good. And, if we have a problem; (it’s rare) it’s sorted out promptly.
