Wickes - Ruislip Reviews 

I am writing to express my profound disappointment with Wickes Ruislip, and Wickes HQ. I entrusted them with a project to renovate my 84-year-old mother's home, who suffers from Alzheimer's, dementia, and mobility issues. The goal was to create a safe and comfortable environment, but the experience turned into a nightmare.

Despite assurances of excellent service and communication, I encountered significant delays, poor communication, and a lack of care. Wickes frequently missed deadlines, especially on items. I had to buy the hob as Wickes didn't deliver the ammended items. I am still awaiting to be being reimbursed for the hobb, and a tap. Wickes failed to maintain proper communication. The contractor assigned by Wickes also missed deadlines.

This caused immense stress for my mother, who relies on a familiar environment for her well-being. Who was desperate to return to her home. Also to myself, as I was living in the property whilst works were being undertaken. A 4-5 week time frame turned into almost 11 weeks. Trying to contend with the dust, noise, and the lack of cooking facilities.

The delays resulted in additional costs such as extended care home stays, and a disruption to the entire renovation timeline. Which includes decorating, carpets, and other renovations. I missed the opportunity to utilise the relevant contractors that I had researched, and was going to move forward with. Which meant I had to start the process all over again. Which was stressful and time consuming.

It is disheartening to see such disregard for a vulnerable individual and their family.

After continuous calls , and emails to Wickes customer service department. Visits to the South Ruislip branch, only to be given the run around is disgraceful.

I urge Wickes to take responsibility for the poor service and the negative impact it has had on my family.

I look forward to prompt and satisfactory resolution.

Lady who served me was not only proactive but very professional, helpful and went out of the way where others avoided. Great presence of mind and has managerial Skills.

A lazy member of staff couldn’t be bothered to check to make sure all fixings were in the packaging even after I asking twice I was reassured everything was there. Very annoyed.

Having systems which don't work.
Mainly click and collect where the items are meant to be delivered to ones vehicle.
Not the first time I have been let down

Rukhi very efficient and helpful with a click and collect return

I was picking up some compost in 75litre bags, which I realised I couldn’t carry
I went in to the store and approached an employee, Mario I think he was called. He helped me pay at the till and then put the 2 bags in to my car, exceptional service very impressed in this day and age where you normally have to do everything yourself

Very helpful and kind stuff.

Fund staff helpful and received fast service also

Jasvinder Pattar from Wicks Kitchen and Bathroom Customer Services had been absolutely wonderful! She helped with the planning of my son's new fitted kitchen, the pricing and also with the finance loan. I would highly recommend her for her expertise!

Hi Dylan
I have provided the requested information to Wickes customer relations team 3 times, yet they have failed to respond to my complaint. Their team takes an excessively long time and repeatedly asks for the same information, which seems to be a tactic to make customers give up and forget their complaints. This level of service is very disappointing from such a company. Please be cautious when considering a purchase from Wickes.
