First Class from start to finish.

From initial visit by Lorraine to installation by Jason and his team, everything was delivered to the highest standard.
Lorraine visited our home, took thorough note of our requirements, budget and style preferences and came up with a lovely design that ticked all our boxes.
Following our acceptance of the design and attractive price, procurement and delivery went very smoothly.
The icing on the cake was Jason and his team who provided a speedy, professional and quality installation of our kitchen. Always with a smile and ‘can do ‘ attitude to his work.
We feel very fortunate to have been dealt a pack of card with all aces.

Lorraine Littlewood has been amazing

Lorraine Littlewood has been amazing. She was dealing with a very small kitchen. We had our own ideas but she very gently explained how we could make better use of the space with her own experience of ideas. The results of her design were wonderful. She was very appreciative of our budget constraints and everything came in on budget. Now just waiting for the fitting. Massive thanks to her for all her help

new kitchen

Went to Wickes for a new kitchen, the design/consultant (Marie) was really helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The fitter (Matt) who came to fit the new kitchen was friendly and extremely helpful.

I was indecisive about using Wicks or…Amazing service

I was indecisive about using Wicks or another company to start with but within a few minutes of meeting Jay at a home visit I was impressed. I visited the store for an appointment with Jay, he was fantastic at explaining everything about the kitchen that I chose. All I can say is what a lovely man. I purchased the kitchen there & then, can not speak more highly of the service that I received & wouldn’t hesitate to to use again. Thankyou Jay

Lifestyle Kitchen

We recently bought a Lifestyle kitchen from Wickes Torquay store. Everything went smoothly until we received delivery of the kitchen, unfortunately there was damage to quite a few of the cupboards and the 2 end panels of the fridge/freezer unit were bowed. We received replacements after another month which delayed the fitting of the kitchen as we had to reschedule with our fitter which took another couple of months and without a kitchen. We had a few items left over which we didn't need, as when you purchase a kitchen the Design Consultant adds everything on to the order, end panels for everything etc. We were advised that if we didn't need everything, no problem we could return if unopened. Terms and conditions confirm this. We had a unit left over and took it back to the Torquay store. The very nice staff downstairs directed us upstairs after phoning them to advise we on our way up. However, by the time we got upstairs all staff had scarpered, we could hear them laughing somewhere. Finally somebody appeared and said that we were not entitled to bring anything back. After a heated discussion they refunded us. We also had a base end left so on another day took this back, all within the stated return time. This time they were trying every angle not to refund us. It was a bespoke kitchen (not true, it was off the shelf as advised by the staff), over the return time etc. There were several staff surrounding me. I couldn't believe it, all I wanted to do was make a return within the time limit. It stressed me out so much that I can't face going back to that store with the one item still left over, or again to purchase anything else. Staff are all smiles when you are buying a kitchen but totally different when wanting to make a return. Not good customer service at all from the kitchen section.

Comfortable relaxed DIY shopping

Over the past few days I have been working on a project and decided to visit Wickes in Torquay. What a really wonderful experience. The floor staff absolutely amazing, help me no end to sort what I needed. Checked stock and acquired more parts I needed from their stock room. The staff on the checkout such a delightful team. A very relaxed DIY shopping experience
