I bought tiles and grout last summer from them and called them 8 months later for matching mastic. We're talking just four tubes of mastic, not a big sale for them but they went out of their way to find a good match, emailing me over photos of the grout I had bought next to potential sealant colours and really cared about what the bathrooms would look like at the end. It's no surprise that homeowners as well as large property developers who are doing up 20 brand new bathrooms at a time, all go there. These guys are experts and really care.

I purchased tiles recently from Parkway Tower Ceramics. I have absolutely no knowledge on DIY/Tiles…read morewhatsoever but from the moment of entering the store, I was greeted by Kazi (salesperson) who took the time to help me find and choose the right tiles I wanted for my home. She had amazing product knowledge on tiles even to which grout worked best. I am absolutely delighted with my new kitchen & bathroom after choosing Mosaic glass/slate/marble tiles which are high quality. The price was reasonable too and I will definitely be going back for floor tiles soon. I will be highly recommending Tower Ceramics Tiles to all my friends and family.

Not a lot when you consider that you are getting premium quality for your money. Think about it how many times can you paint your house in a lifetime, a couple, so you want the best stuff too last a long time. Oh and pumice is the color I bought for my house, and after months I'm still enjoying my color decision.

I would have never have thought there could be a shop dedicated solely to tiles.

They pride themselves in having their products hand made, on the most part, in the UK and Europe. It is part of their 'green' commitment. They also source their wood and glass (for their mosaic collection) from sustainable forests, 86% of their glass is recycled. The most educational part of my visit to the store was their fully fitted 'library' it had paint samples, tiles, rugs and wood sample that you can also experiment with and mix and match, very hands on. Products are displayed concisely and intelligently in what can only be described as a quality environment. I am contemplating showing them my hand made tile collection, it would be amazing to have my creations alongside theirs.

***DONT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY***, THEY ARE CON ARTISTS. A BIG COMPANY WITH NO MORELS…read more In the month of January 25 / 2026 myself and my wife purchase a kitchen from wicks in staines upon Thames. My wife and I were introduced to a lady called Charlie We were told she is a professional kitchen designer.(****SO WE THOUGHT***) Charlie came to our house and measured our room that was ready to have a kitchen fitted We then had a meeting with Charlie to show us the plan that she had come up with .My wife chatted with her about different options. Going by the design plans that miss Taylor had set out a professional design kitchen(****SO WE THOUGHT***) we ordered are new Kitchen at £15,375.0 at a discount cost and my wife was over the moon and couldn't wait for it to be delivered. Some weeks later the kitchen arrived we check for damage as the delivery driver said you better check them over as a lot of stuff gets damaged in transit also they did drop quite a few box's when unloading the lorry and there was indeed quite a lot of damaged to some of the units,doors, cabinets ETC . I made a phone call to explain there was damage on the units doors ,drawers etc but as the fitters started to build them this is when we then realised the units did not make up square they were not cut properly, Meaning they did not fit flush to the wall. Yet another problem We then discovered that Charlie measurements were incorrect along with the units my wife had asked for were not incorporated within the design Meaning that the kitchen we had was not going to fit properly and had different units a huge error on Charlie's Taylor's part We made a phone call and a few trips to wicks we sent emails To start with we were ignored . We were then asked to send pictures ,we did this sent over 40 pictures We were then asked to get the barcodes off the boxes the units came in We did this I had to continually explain that the kitchen didn't fit and that the units do not make up into square cabinet,just a load of cheap rubbish. The only thing wicks would acknowledge was that some of the units had been damaged This dragged on for so long I then asked for a full refund and to return the kitchen All this time and still not once had anyone suggested for a designer to come to our house and look The way I have been spoken to is disrespectful. unprofessional,rude by a gentlemen at customer services called ***MR KING**** I feel that certain Members of staff are trying to use bulling tactics one being ***Mr King ****I feel they have been treating my wife and I like lesser humans This is deeply invalidating, and exhausting. We are in talks that involve people that are meant to be in a professional environment. We both deserve basic human decency, respect, and to feel completely valued and heard but that's only happened by one person at wicks called Nathan who has worked so hard but sadly he has been ignored by his own customer services team as well. I have been told it's tough luck and as I signed a contract when I didn't. Even if I did if someone makes a mistake they should put it right. At no point have I signed a CONTRACT and they will not show me this signed contract, they say they have. That's because they can't because they don't have one. Had I of signed a contract how then does that give your manager and customer the right to speak to me in that manner i thought that wicks was a reputable company it's clearly NOT TRUE!!!! . I have not asked for anything out of the way Wicks has provided a very faulty kitchen that I am asking for it to be put right . Wicks sent a designer to my house that made an error. I am asking for that acknowledgment and for it to be put right Due to us having no kitchen and living off take aways and sandwiches, and BBQ for 4-5 months the stress it has caused my family with two children. And Wickes constantly ignoring me or telling me I have to spend more money to sort there mistakes out.And Mr King from customer services repeatedly keeps telling US to go to the home furniture ombudsman and I have all this on Email so you won't get away with ripping the British public off. WE ARE NOW IN JUNE AND STILL DONT HAVE A KITCHEN. They have no care about their customers in anyway, as far as I'm concerned Wickes only want your money and nothing else. SO FOR YOU ALL TO SEE of what wickes are doing to the general public I.E RIPPING US OFF ,PLEASE FIND THE FACE BOOK PAGES Where you will find other people who've had the same experiences as us if not worse experiences and you will find mine on there.
