Wickes Swindon

Bought some 18mm MDF sheets and used their in house cutting service. Stephan done a great job and was very patient going through all my cutting requirements👍😀 Would highly recommend using this service. It's great then after, as you only have to handle smaller pieces👍

Greeted at the till on entering and leaving the premises. Good stock levels for the job I needed. Easy to shop at the time of day. Lots of parking.

Parked up. Took a trolley from the park next to the door. Placed Oscar on the trolley and went in. Two bags of postcrete found and back to the tills. Employees personable but came across as knackered. Exit door was jammed partly open. You know what you are getting at Wickes and to this extent, it’s like visiting a much older uncle.

Tried to get a bathroom re-done in September 2022, we cancelled after 6 months and it took another month to get our nearly 40% deposit back! Their contractor cancelled on us over a question of liability insurance and they didn't seem to be able to arrange another. After the initial design with Tom (who was the only helpful person in this) Communication was virtually non-existent and we had to chase them for everything. The Swindon store manager chose to ignore phone calls and emails. Terrible experience.

Great for general DIY good range of paints easy parking Needed a picture hanging fitting asked Linda and she went out of her to show me all the fittings was able to get one and she even went on till to cash us out many thanks Linda saved us a lot of time.

I'd avoid this place for bathroom fittings. Poor workmanship. Once work is completed they won't resolve issues found like they promise you when purchasing. We had lighting fixtures pop out, tiling done to a level that makes you feel like it's a Mario kart map. message we got back? After complaining I have spoke with the store manager today who has advised that the workmanship in your installation is all up to standard and that they would not be sending anyone out to do any remedial works. What a joke.
