Reviews of Wickes

S. R.

Went here over the weekend for timber and sand. The young lady Sharon was unsure about the sizes of timber, but came with me to ensure we had the right size. Sharon was very personable and helpful. Had the delivery today and again the delivery driver (sorry didn’t get his name) was very helpful put the items in the garage for me. Would definitely recommend Wicks.

R. A.

Good stock, had what I wanted at a good price. No queues, pleasant environment

C. I.

All good. Stock well presented and priced up (not always the case in other similar stores).

D. S.

Quick in for a couple of DIY items. Great to be out today, yaay! Popped in early, just after 7am, not many people about, parked right outside, and free parking a bonus.

A. A. (.

Good supply of the usual DIY items with a good kitchen unit/bathroom units. There are larger DIY outlets but staff are friendly and approachable. There is a tool station in store for added choice and parking is free.

M. R.

Trolleys were a bit sparse, and not exactly suitable for what I was going for. Struggled to get the stuff to the van (as an employee watched on) but I was helped by a lovely couple, thankfully. Well stocked shop though, had everything I needed & helpful employee at the cash desk.

O. S.

Has essential building and maintenance items and kitchen department.

L. P.

It is a small wickes store with a toolstation inside, a couple of times people have away from tills so have to wait for someone to come serve you but prices are cheaper then B&Q it's OK.

K. B.

Good quality products and a wide range too. Prices are very reasonable. I've renovated most of my house over the last few years with wickes products, both tools and building supplies and never had an issue. Most staff are friendly and helpful. Would recommend over the competition...

C. L.

Staff are friendly and helpful. Store is situated in a convenient place and the products are laid out well so it's easy to find what you are looking for. Prices good too. Would recommend for your DIY needs.

D. C.

Wickes is your typical builders merchants. Prices are never as cheap as they make out and the staff have a " can't be bothered " attitude. I popped in around 7.00pm to buy 15 bags of building sand. Very heavy when on a trolley. As I approached the till with the heavy trolley, there was another trolley with stock on it in the way. The short, dark haired chubby girl at the till noticed I was struggling with my own trolley as well as moving the trolley that was in the way. She did nothing...why?.....because she was too busy playing on her phone! Which she continued to do until I interrupted her with my selfish act of wanting to pay. She didn't say a thing to me as she took my money. No hello, no thank you and no goodbye. Just simply picked her phone up and carried on once she'd given me my receipt. Terrible customer service, otherwise it's okay.

R. B.

It does what it says on the tin.... It is a DIY and builders merchants store selling to trade and public. I needed draft excluder which I found after some assistance. This particular member of staff was an older gentleman and extremely helpful. The guy on the till needs to find a different job he was so miserable why is he working there?

S. D.

Good customer service, helped us fine all the items we needed, new exactly where to find them and competitive prices

a.

Use Wickes all the time. Very good service.

J. C.

Did click and collect, all good and service at desk good too. Helped in store by Alan (only been at Wickes 4 months but excellent customer service). Thanks

J. B.

Not too crowded, well laid out isles clearly labelled. Some queues at checkout as only two tills were open.

R. L.

This is a great place to get your DIY products if you in the area. There is also a Toolstation Store within this store which can help you reduce your project bills. Lots of products at good prices. There is ample free parking within the area and there are also othere stores around if you need anything else. Tip - Watch ot for special offers within these stores occassionally.

T. E. D.

After being totally messed about and let down by b and q on a click and collect order I decided to try Wickes instead. Wow! What a difference, the order was ready when they said it would be, and I had no problem collecting it. Thank you Wickes, I know where to shop next time.

D. S.

Today, I went to Wickes and couldn't find what I was looking for. I asked a customer service assistant by the name for Mark for some help. The service I received was excellent and the best service I have received from any store in a long time. He was helpful, courteous and polite and at the end of my visit I came away with exactly what I was looking for. Many thanks for a great service.

A. K.

Is it me ? I find this place very poorly laid out. Is there a knack of finding your way around?

B. S.

Wickes is a building supplier and also has a Toolstation within it Toolstation is quite a good place to get items at reasonable prices. Don't often buy stuff in Wickes but the staff are always friendly and happy to help

J. H.

I love the straight forward easy reliable attitude to DIY. The products are good value and top quality. As someone said a while ago. They do what is say on the tin. I always look to wicks as a benchmark.

G. H.

Wicked is a good place but you have to ask for discount. Wicked Bournemouth more importantly has s toolbox and this place is amazing!! Good parki g facilities and a good selection.

A. M.

Not a bad place to get your DIY bits and pieces, I must admit I dont use them that often but when I go there they've always got what I need.

C. C.

Good convienent store when working in the area you see it on display you buy it no problem staff very helpfull no problems.

I. B.

Very good. Picked up a click and collect cistern. Best price, good quality and good customer service

K. M.

Checked stock online before I went. All oj so no problems.

R. P.

The #1 DIY store to go to. Most items are good quality at a competitive prices, also 9 out of 10 I get what I need.

D. S.

Brilliant, hand sanitizer at the entrance, very quiet, felt safe and great customer service. Got what we wanted and straight back out to safety xx

C. W.

Had everything I wanted

J. W.

Not too bad but Toolstation inside is better and cheaper for tools, not a massive selection of variety in Wickes but they at least have most things

S. P.

Good value for some items, not so good on others. You really need to look at B&Q and Homebase too. And for smaller items, places like Home Bargains and Wilko offer better value.

M. S.

Fully stocked, pleasant staff, no name badges. Click and collect worked well once I had made an unnecessary journey because I found the web pages too difficult.

J. R.

Friendly staff. Good selection of products. Found what I needed straight away.

s. r.

Excellent service from staff and items were easy to find .so fast and easy shopping

R. L.

Easy shopping quick to pop in get what you want and back out with always plenty of parking too.

S. H. (.

Also a reliable store for DIY. It loses a star due to the mad car parking where you need to drive past Wickes to come into the carpark to drive to it. If you drive left when you see Wickes you'll get stuck with a one way!

G. M.

Went in for a circular saw found one at a good price. To purchase the tools you need to go to customer service as there not kept on shop floor

G. P.

Went in there to look at tiles. The staff very helpful and told us what we needed. Prices not bad either

D. F.

Good no nonsense service, thought they were very efficient and like the range of stock they carry.

V. B.

What's the point in only having the majority of bathroom basins on line and you cant see and why you go in store. Limited basins to buy straight the way.. I have brought a sale basin and pedestal on line which was a bargain at 15.00 but had to wait three weeks

T. S.

the shop is fine but the road system are carpark is poor. As a result there is always a lot of traffic and limited parking not ideal.

M. F.

All good here, but could do with some readily available trolley dollies.

J. M.

Good place, staff are friendly, also has a toolstation inside. Can get lots of DIY items from here

S. S.

Wicked is far cheaper and better quality than jewson or b&q . Especially when you get trade discount card

B. V.

Always got what I need and being a trade buyer I get 10%off always perfect

P. S.

Cheaper than b and q less choices but has a tool station that easily makes up for it

R. O.

Polite efficient and most importantly, they had what I wanted at a great price.
