Reviews of Wickes

S. T.

Good stocked DIY store with nice and helpful staff. Will visit again for sure.

P.

Has pretty much everything to do with d.i.y , I was looking to replace my toilet. They had good variety. The staff were helpful too.

P. B.

Always good value quality diy. Rescued some really dodgy alleged professional plumbing by using good value wickes products.

S.

Well stocked building supplies shop. Staff are always at hand to assist with your needs.

M. B.

We are DIYer and did not have any clue how to paint the wall. Hence, we watched several Youtubes before we get there. The staff (Thank you MATT!!) was brilliant and kind. And learnt away more than the YouTube videos. Appreciated!!

L. F.

Fair prices stock levels ok staff friendly

A. S.

Great stock selection, with easy ordering for items not on shelves. Customer service staff really knowledgeable and helpful.

J. B.

Always good service. Usually have what I need.

s. p.

Good stock and easy to find what you need usually. Dropped one star because a couple of items are placed oddly( for example two identical products by different brands in different isles, and some items the shelves say out of stock, but website shows stock , those items are kept behind the desk for security! But how would you know without asking?)

A. H.

Five star excellent service. Our kitchen design and purchase experience was exceptional, all down to Adam and his professional approach. Highly recommended!

A. M.

Helpful, but clearly frustrated staff, due to little stock of basics, like replacement broom handles.

B. P.

Came in literally an hour ago, asked a guy for help guys name was Andrew - he's the reason this is a five star review, knew what was In stock where it was, was able to read my dad's writing. Very good staff member / person.

C.

Really quiet - nice variety of flooring although not as many tiles as I had expected. Easy to park too.

R. W.

Smashing girl on the till even though I was right on the last minute at 8pm, no worries. Got some good offers and prices cheaper than merchants or b n q

J. D.

Friendly staff, handy disabled customer toilet to the far left of the entrance for all customers.

a. c.

Fast and efficient Staff always helpful

C. P.

I've been in here a good few times , with such a variety of stock you tend to come out with what you wanted without feeling ripped off . Their website is very effective too if you're using your phone to find gear for a job ( and see if it is in stock ) , cash & carry no messing about if you're in a hurry too .

p. l.

Very good very helpful although I did not get what I wanted I was allowed to look at the computer with the store colleagues and was informed by her manager that they could have it delivered from Exeter but would not be able to guarantee date or time scale

E. G.

A huge thank you to the store manager Paul who went above and beyond to rectify a mistake that had been made with a click and collect order. Massively appreciated and saved me another 3 hour round trip. Thank you so much.

M. W.

Have been waiting for right sized decking boards to come into stock for several weeks. Checked on website and eventually found some available at Plymouth store. On visiting shop, could find none on display. Asked assistant, who initially said that there was a shortage,... I mentioned the website data, so he went to check in the store room area... Returned a few minutes later with the boards loaded on a trolley for me...

-.

Wonderful store boasting an array of DIY items. I attended to purchase some coaching for my living room, which a staff member directed me to. The products were stocked well, with plenty of room for the stock so that it doesn't get damaged. There is also a large selection to choose from, which made me choose Wickes after attending the nearby Homebase and being rather disappointed. I would recommend!

K. N.

my head carer went in to the store to get some perspex cut to size for me whilst I waited in the car (due to my noise sensitivity to power tools/machinery) and the staff who cut the perspex to the right size

R. W.

Super friendly staff, had what I wanted, set up home delivery painlessly. Major easy to use website with even more variety of stock available. Will use again.

D. B.

Today's visit was very successful, picked up on the shelf kitchen wall units, and one set were reduced. All on the shelf, well done Wickes. Great stock availability this time.

S. B.

Ran out of what I wanted, but that's life, still a good store at reasonable prices. Excellent prices if you have the Trade Pro app

M. L.

Great parking. Sat with bathroom designer Denise and had a pleasant hour going over our order. This store is small but the staff make up for that with their enthusiasm and willingness.

J. D.

Always very helpful Good prices. We tend to go to Wickes first On the rare occasion they dont stock it we go elsewhere preferably not B & Q Derriford The Manager is one of the worst and rude ever known Just bought alot of laminate last week and they were very informative saying bring back any unopened boxes for a full refund The others never said that even though you can So Wickes is for us always and best on prices😊

J. M.

Very helpful cashier, but the old guy wouldn't show me what i was looking for. He was too busy filling up shelfs. But a customer is the reason for your work not a interruption of it.

P. W.

Ethan is one of the pickers at this store... I called with a delivery problem.. He was so efficient and polite..his knowledge of stock second to none brilliant 5 star

S. C.

The items that I required were on the shelf. The items were reasonably price. There is a one way system in place. There was a notice saying no more cement until further notice.

D. W.

Decent store layout but the small size is the site means that lots of items are available, bit only in limited quantities or ranges. Staff are friendly and helpful though.

C. A. G.

A little over priced I think and lacking in variety of choice compared to some of the other DIY retailers. However, friendly staff, well layed out store and conveniently local to me so am happy to pay the extra

M. B.

Well laid out and excellent prices, if you cant find what you want the staff are very helpful.

M. C.

Very good quick service

A. D.

Store itself is nicely laid out and everything is easy enough to find, staff are both knowledgable and helpful too!

G. W.

Absolutely brilliant, staff are very friendly and helpful highly recommend this store

M. R.

Perfect we found lots of products all of the products we came for and got some building products which were perfect for our retaining wall we are building and we could some help guides for free to help us lay paths fences etc. It also had lots of other things for your home

J. B.

Wasn't really sure what we needed for a plumbing issue, spoke to Andy who couldn't have been more helpful. He took time time listen to us, explained how best we might rectify our issue and when we had to return to get extra parts was very helpful again. Would throughly recommend wickes

N. E.

Wickes was very good.. You should go there and check out there prices we got gravel at a very low price.. And the staff are very helpful and friendly.. Young man was so helpful with helping load my car😊

J. C.

Good selection. Open early morning so you can pickup items ready for the day

M. C.

Great prices try there trade card, if you are in the building game.

A. C.

Today I visited Wickes to look at their kitchens. I did not have an appointment but was approached by Emma who courteously discussed my requirements, helped me choose doors and worktops. She then introduced me to Mark, design consultant, who juggled his schedule to fit in a full appointment for me before my imminent holiday. Thank you. Stella Clarke

D. F.

Went today, as you do on a bank holiday Monday! Had everything we needed and a bonus of 15% off already sale prices. So today was an absolute bargain day 😁

S. H.

Clean, good directions for distancing and one way system in store. Los is clear signage on booking appointments if required.

B. B.

Wicks - Bulk Delivery Used Wicks as I heard some of the horror story's from b&q customers. But now wish I'd just have not bothered. I would like to make clear, yes I got 2 bags of sand delivered and the sand was fine. But reason for 3 star - Delivery lad was on the offish/rude he seemed to huff a lot. They deliver on lorry's with a little grabber crane to move bulk items off the truck. when asked could he dump it on the lawn, he huffed and said no as a car was slightly to close to the garden wall. Fine ok no problems can you stick it on the drive....huff again, then made no atempt to re position the lorry, just dumped one on the driveway and said he/crane couldn't reach to place the 2nd bag. Huffed at the suggestion on moving the lorry so the crane beam could reach. At this point I thought balls to it; just drop it where ever it's 9am and the lorry and crane noise is waking people up. So the young bright spark just placed it in the middle of the path...So me and thankfully the mrs spent about an hour moving 1ton of sand off the public path... It would have taken 2 min to move the ruddy thing backward (ironically the same direction he left in) and saved me and the mrs an hour of faff and heavy work at 9am.... Thanks wicks...next time I just won't use you... Train your drivers better!

M. M.

This is probably the best diy (and trade) outlet in Plymouth. Excellent selection of products, good prices and extremely friendly and helpful staff. You’d be crazy to go anywhere else.

D. P.

Basically if you can't find what you're looking for anywhere else you'll find it here. It can be a bit pricey but as long as you get what you need then it's worth it.

B. M.

This 5 star is NOT for the half hearted help after a visit at The Wickes Plympton branch when I didn't know where to go or what to look for when I wanted to order 2 tons of stones, with a member of staff pointing from one end of the store to the other , aswell as a rather abupt large member of staff whos name i didnt know kept inturupting me as I tried to ask her if I could have my two ton bags put in my garden & I couldn't get a word in edgeways ! ! Also very confusing very small sample of stones as I came in the door WITH NO IDEA OF PRICES "BY THE TON" ONLY PRICED FOR SMALL BAGS ONLY !! HOWEVER I wish I could remember the polite, courteous, very helpful, driver who " REALLY WENT THE EXTRA MILE" TO DRIVE HIS LORRY WITH ONLY HALF an inch to spare when he actually " asked me " where can I put the bags ? Instead of leaving them on the kurb where then my goods could get stolen, as i told the abrupt lady at Wickes !! So I wouldn't of felt to happy for paying £30 either ! But I really think this young driver should get a bonus for going the EXTRA MILE & 5☆ GO TO HIM ONLY WHEN HE MANAGED TO DROP THE TWO BAGS BY CRANE JUST INSIDE MY GARDEN EVEN THOUGH THIS PROVED A VERY DIFFICULT CHALLENGE !!!! MY DELIVERY CAME ON WENSDSDAY 8 - 1 WELL DONE TO THIS YOUNG LAD !!

J. F.

okay so if your in the trade they give you a useful 10 percent off which makes them cheaper than alot of building merchants

s. R.

Great place for all of my diy materials never brought something bad from here from paint to fence panels always been ideal

P. E.

Used this as a regular source for DIY until ordering a vanity unit that was first incorrectly delivered then delivered a week late in a badly damaged state. Money was refunded but...

D. N.

Still great value and range. Staff always helpful. Glad they are being rewarded with time off at Christmas.

n. w.

Found the staff very helpful and grateful that they told people waiting in the queue it was card only unlike BQ who didn't tell me until I got to the till.

A. R.

Wickes is a bit of a hidden gem. A decent choice of building materials, a Bathroom and Kitchen section that will suit most DIY enthusiasts or builders and generally a fair selection for most projects.

A. H.

A comprehensive stock range made available under strictly controlled supervision.Pleasant and helpful staff as signposting could be better

T. D.

Not a great selection of drill bits. Certain screws were lacking. Not a fully stocked place at the moment

M. O.

Good range of product's, well presented, easy to walk around store, helpful staff, easy parking.

A. R.

Could not find anything I went here for and the staff seem to have a limited knowledge of DIY products. Covid restrictions in place.

Great place for the DIYer prices though not always the best are very reasonable and it's just down the road from me!

R. G.

They have been very good at making you feel safe in the store

J.

I call in there occasionally, staff at checkout our friendly & polite. The only thing that let's this branch down is never any staff around to help you.

J. J.

Needed a tool for next day Wickes had the item and at a good price even better with my trade Pro discount
