Our Kitchen Project

Our kitchen project was expertly dealt with from start to finish. The idea of having our kitchen refitted was a daunting task. However our kitchen designer, Andreas Hooper was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and guided us expertly to our choices. All the trades people did an excellent job. Top Drawer kitchen fitters lived up to their name. Chris and his son Jack got on with the work quietly and efficiently. They were both very pleasant and obliging. Chris coordinated the other trades people very well. The work was completed within the alloted time. Customer Services dealt with the logistics of the refit and were contactable in the event of any problems, of which there were none. The whole experience went smoothly and we are delighted with the outcome.

Mainly bad organisation on behalf of the fitters. Took 2 months and should have been a week. Sales rep in Wickes store in Wallsend was terrible when we were trying to resolve fitting issues. I would not use Wickes again.

A counter assistant at the Wallsend store, Christine, was most helpful to us in locating and choosing some door handles. Her assistance was much appreciated and would commend her on her patience and manner - a true example of a valuable assistant.

Called into Wickes in Wallsend this evening to look at skirting boards. I asked for some assistance and a lovely lady called Dawn came to assist me. She was a great help and just wanted to commend this member of staff for all her help and assistance. Thank you.

No follow up

The consultation was excellent. However, I did not receive any follow-up. No email with a link to the design. Nothing. I spent about two hours in store and I have nothing to show for it.

Ghosted by Wickes

Design consultant gave us a few good tips and seemed genuine but 2 weeks down the line we still haven't received the quote and plan that he promised to send us within a few days. No correspondence whatsoever. Needless to say we have gone with a local company and not Wickes.

Great service

Megan at Wickes Wallsend was very friendly and helpful, and answered my questions. The staff are always really approachable here, and they know their stuff. The range of stuff in the store isn't huge, but if they have the products you want, I've found the quality to generally be high.
