Ordered my flooring from this company and although they put my delivery date back by one week originally the flooring arrived on the new date given, 2 packs were damaged so I called to order more and two packs were promptly delivered to me the next day free of charge along with a new length of profile which was also damaged. My floor layer completed today and told me the flooring was good quality and easy to lay, I can honestly say after reading all the negative reviews I was quite worried about this company, but have had no problems at all and would definitely recommend them.

I have received wrong wood floor. After immediatelly calling the customer service and providing photos of the wrong one I was told that the replacemente order (collection+delivery) would have been done in 2 days. I took the day off from work to accept delivery but the order was not delivered. So i called the customer service again and after more than half an hour waiting I've been told that delivery was scheduled for the following day. Again day off from work and again never delivered. Same thing happened other 2 times (totally 4 day off from work and 4 missed deliveries) and finally I've been told that the warehouse hasn't received photos because the customer service hasn't sent them. I sent the photos again and finally the delivery happened after more than 2 weeks since the wrong delivery. I had to took 5 days off from work, re-schedule professional installation 2 times, call customer service 15 times and keep wrong floor in my living room for 2 weeks like a warehouse. Worst customer service ever. I'll never buy anything from them again.

Awful. Simply put, they took my money readily, then my goods vanished into thin air and flooring direct just don’t care! It’s been missing for 5 days now and has cost me a small fortune in pre-booked labour I couldn’t use. They are crooks and their “customer service” is rude and worse than useless. They outsource to couriers they are not in touch with, know nothing about and can’t track. Avoid this company at all costs!!

Awful company! Took day off work to receive delivery which never arrived. Told me would be next day 'sometime'. After much persuading (no offer of this or even an apology), agreed to give me morning slot as would be waiting in with baby potentially for 10 hours otherwise. Cancelled paid for baby activity and entertained baby in house all morning waiting for delivery only to be told at 11.30 that it would now be the afternoon 'sometime.' Totally incompetent and do not care, have no respect for their customers. Avoid

UKFD emailed me twice postponing my delivery. The third delivery date given would have been over 2 weeks after I was meant to receive the product. No replies to emails, I would suggest there is no point in using this, make sure you call. Do not let the customer services reps offer to call you back while they investigate, they did not call back a single time (I gave 48 hours each time)! A refund of the AM preferred delivery fee was promised but was never actioned. I eventually cancelled the entire order and went elsewhere as I lost all confidence in this company. I would never use again.

Good engineered floors and arrived surprisingly in time and well. That's however where my luck with UK flooring direct has ended. Ordered End profiles for my floors, instead they sent to me T shape profiles. I called them and sent emails with links explaining exactly what went wrong, only to have a delusional support chap to demand and insist that I to provide the actual pictures of the wrong items they sent to me. Asked for a refund and they went radio silent. Will shop elsewhere no matter how cheap their prices appear to be.

Good quality product, terrible delivery. Stressful process. I had ordered laminate online and I chose the delivery date while ordering online. Then the company changed the delivery date without my consent. I called the customer service, they re-arranged the delivery day to the original day. Then they re-changed it without my consent. The customer service told me that one of the packages was not available and that’s why they had to change the delivery date. They said they will send me someone else’s product as I needed them urgently. Products came, but one box of laminate was broken. They replaced it, but that was broken, too. So overall, it was an unsatisfactory, stressful process. Sad but true.

Do not purchase from this company. Spent more than 2000 pounds and have items missing in deliveries. Customer service attitude were bad, do not take ownership and just said all the items are checked and delivered. Average quality and average value for money. Could be competitive if provides good customer service but apparently not. I suggest going to alternative site as you risk being scammed buying here due to poor quality control in warehouse packing and customer service.

The luxury vinyl flooring I purchased from UK flooring direct did not fit flush together on the narrow ends and so was completely unusable. Customer service when trying to return this for a refund have been really appalling- the worst customer service I have ever experienced with any company. I am now having to seek legal advice to try and avoid wasting the £500 I have spent. Please don't use this disreputable company.

The most shocking service I have had the misfortune of being a part of. I bought from you twice before with no issues. My third attempt has been fraught with difficulties from day one! The first delivery which I paid extra for as a next day delivery was a no show. A second was rearranged and again was a no show!! On the third attempt, the delivery guy would not come down from his lorry to deliver. He tried to do claim kerbside delivery and turned his vehicle around. Now I am trying to organise a fourth delivery only to be told that due to personnel issues the courier company has they may not deliver to my door. Who runs this company??? What kind of a sham is this???

The flooring was useless - very very poor quality. It was Kronotec - best thing about the job was tearing it up !!!

Floor quality is shocking! It’s been down 5 days and it’s marked straight away, infact you can not avoid scratching it. I paid £2000 in total with fitting and i want to rip it up all ready!

The products are good but the customer service is appalling. We ordered over £1k of flooring from them, every time I'd agreed delivery instructions, I was assured they were correct and then delivered wrong. I ordered two room dividers in a different order from the main flooring. The delivery cost more than the item on standard delivery, but we needed next day. Paid a ridiculous amount to ensure it arrived on time for our fitters to fit them, there was someone in all day and it didn't arrive. It then took 3 weeks to sort out arrival. I wasn't refunded for this, even after flagging it to UK flooring and being promised a refund. We didn't actually open the package until the fitters came back a month later and realised there was only 1 item, but we'd paid for 2. After calling UK flooring, the supervisor (otherwise known as "Fulfillment Expert " in his job title), refused sending us another item out even though it was their mistake. I looked online to reorder and realised the cost of delivery was approx £15, the item was only £12. I called to discuss the issue further and was told they weren't budging on their standing point. I asked if they would at least pay for the delivery as I'd had such a poor service for next day delivery last time that wasn't refunded. Again I was told they wouldn't despite spending a fortune with them and it being down to their incompetence. They clearly don't value their customers, understand good customer service or care about the poor reviews their lack of service will give them. AVOID! I'm sure you can get the same flooring from another company with better service!

The measure of a company, isn't how they deal with customers when everything is fine, but how they deal with customers when there is a problem. This company basically wash their hands of it, and the excuses change depending on who you talk to. No refunds, no working together to resolve the problem. Just out right not our problem its yours. Not only that but then when you try to follow the route that Citizens Advice recommends, and UKFloorings own T&CS and speak to the resolution company (ADR). The resolution company I found under UKfloorings T&CS said to me, we no longer deal with this company and haven't since December 2017, as we sent emails and letters regarding disputes, and UKflooring didn't respond. Now UK Flooring must have been aware of this as they updated their T&Cs in February 2019..... Its clearly all just lip service to the Consumer Act 2015. This has left me as a customer who had checked the suitability of the product on their website, and laid the flooring as per the instructions on their packaging. Left with a product we cannot use. Right at the very end of an 18 month build, and no money ourselves to replace the product, we should be enjoying all our hardwork but instead are trying to deal with a problem. I am so disappointed with the product, with the service and everything about UK Flooring direct. This leads me no choice but to say to any potential customers. Do not buy any products from this company. As the customer journey after the initial purchase is quite simply appalling and its not worth your time, effort or money to try and resolve, Go and find a company that deals well with customers after the product has been purchased. And will resolve issues. Especially when the customer is being extremely reasonable. The shame of it is. I am usually very careful about which companies I purchase from hence never had to write a bad review before. I always check social media and reviews. But we were working to a tight budget and their January sale was about to finish, The reviews on their own website looked good. So I went with it. Guess what 4 months on the product has remained at exactly the same price. The sale has changed name or always been extended but the product price has never changed. So their sale is a bit of a con. Please research this company and don’t feel under pressure like we did, as more than likely their fictitious sale will continue.

Absolutely shocking service, no notification of delivery, even though I emailed to enquire. Rang me to say they were outside my house trying to deliver. All emails I sent got one word reply’s. Wasn’t helpful at all... totally shocking after sales

Terrible service. First they give 6 hour delivery slots during the week which is not helpful for those of us who work outside the house. Told them I would not be home the day they tried to deliver and they still tried to deliver anyways. Now they have promised me a refund but it’s been 3 weeks and no funds have hit my account. Extremely disappointed.
