About Wickes
Wickes is a British home improvement retailer selling building materials, timber, tools and paint, along with fitted kitchens and bathrooms sold with design and installation. Customers of DIY chains that also fit rooms meet two sets of problems: on the retail side, delivery slots that are missed, loads that turn up short or damaged, and cut or special order items that cannot be returned. On the fitted side it is design measurements that do not work out, installation dates that slip, and confusion over whether the store or the fitter is responsible.
Get the quote, the specification and the fitting dates in writing before paying a deposit, and pay at least part by credit card where you can for the extra protection. Check a delivery against the note before signing, photograph damage on arrival, and ask who to contact if a fitter and the store disagree.
Kitchen measured wrong at the design stage? Bring it to us. We open a case and keep advising you while the store and the fitter work out who acts.
Common customer service questions about Wickes
How do I file a complaint about Wickes?
Do you have a dispute or a bad customer experience with Wickes? Report it through our website to maximize the chance of getting it resolved.
We help you write an effective complaint in minutes. Our AI models are trained on thousands of effective complaint letters. Then we push it through emails, social media, paper complaint letters and other tools at our disposal. And you are not alone: our helpful community is there for advice.
How do I contact Wickes customer service?
Wickes has no phone number or email in our records, so use the help and contact pages on the Wickes website at wickes.co.uk, and for anything bought in a shop, the store that took the sale. Say at the start which kind of order it is: a store purchase, a home delivery of materials, or a fitted kitchen or bathroom, because they are dealt with separately. Have the order number, the store, the delivery or fitting date, the quote reference and the receipt ready.
Put the complaint in writing and keep a copy, even if the first conversation happens at the counter. Kitchen paid for and no fitting date in writing? Take it through our complaint process and we push it out by email, social media and printed letters.
Can I return cut timber, mixed paint or a special order to Wickes?
Check the returns wording on your receipt or order confirmation before you load the car, because the answer splits by item type. Unused stock items in their original packaging with proof of purchase are the straightforward case. Timber cut to your measurements, paint mixed to a colour and special orders placed for you are usually excluded, because they were made or cut to your specification and cannot go back on the shelf. Faulty goods are a separate matter from a change of mind, and being faulty is not affected by the return window.
If a member of staff cut or mixed the wrong thing, say so in writing on the day and ask for it to be put right rather than accepting a store credit as the only option.
What can I do if a Wickes delivery is late, short or damaged?
Check the load against the delivery note before you sign anything, and write any shortage or damage onto the note itself, since that is the record the store works from afterwards. Photograph damaged goods where they were unloaded, on the day they arrive. Report it straight away with the order number, the delivery date and the photographs, and ask for a written reply saying what is being replaced and when. If a missed slot has held up a trade booking or a room you cannot use, put that in writing too, with the dates.
Second slot missed with the job on hold? Report it here and we help you write it in minutes, with the delivery note, the photographs taken on the day and the dates of both slots in one place.
Who is responsible if a Wickes kitchen or bathroom installation goes wrong?
Ask that question in writing at the first sign of a problem, because the answer decides who has to fix it. A kitchen or bathroom sold with design and installation is normally the retailer's contract with you, even when a self employed fitter does the work on site, while a fitter you found and hired yourself is not. Put the quote, the plan, the measurements and the agreed fitting dates next to what was actually done, and photograph the result. Keep any change agreed on site in writing rather than as a doorstep conversation, and pay at least part of a large order by credit card where you can, for the extra protection that brings.
