Wickes

The Wickes name goes as far back as 1854, when Henry Dunn Wickes and his brother started a modest operation in the local lumber business in Michigan, USA. In 1972 the first UK Wickes was opened in Whitefield, Manchester. It was an imaginative new concept - using a traditional DIY store model to sell to the trade - and it made Wickes the first fixed-price builders merchant in the UK.

Building trust
The performance of Wickes LVT products is key to building trust with their customers. The Wickes Quality Assurance Team travels thousands of miles each year to check the production quality of their key suppliers, and they independently test their own-brand products against the market leaders, checking that each one is up to the job. This ensures that when customers buy Wickes luxury vinyl tiles they can be confident they are getting the best value for money.

B&Q

A brand and name that all are familiar with in the UK. Often referred to as one of the 'big sheds' (slightly unflattering in our opinion), B&Q LVT floors are good quality and often priced to sell with excellent value for money luxury vinyl tile ranges in-store and online. Luxury vinyl click flooring is an excellent choice for high-traffic areas offering durability, warmth and water resistance making it ideal for kitchen or bathroom flooring. The quick to lay locking mechanism allows you to lay the floor over the top of underlay and underfloor heating without the need of adhesives. This easy to clean, low maintenance floor is available in a great range of styles including wood, stone and tile effect. For a premium vinyl floor option, explore the B&Q range of luxury vinyl click flooring.

B&Q own LVT brands: expert quality at handy prices
B&Q own brand luxury vinyl flooring is designed with your home in mind. Built with their expertise and the quality you’d expect from B&Q, at prices that make every one of your projects possible. From GoodHome transformations and beautiful gardens with Verve to jobs conquered with Magnusson – that’s real life made better.
