I have always liked buying paint at The Paint Well due to the variety of brands available. I had an issue with my paint order at The Paint Well, and this was resolved by a manager there who went above and beyond to ensure I remain a satisfied customer. Thank you again, more than I can say!

Rude staff member.

This is regarding the red haired lady working in the Kendal branch, it is not a reflection on the company.We arrived today at 11:59am, they were just about to close which I knew. We were just gonna grab paint and knew what we needed so would have been fast. As we walked in the door we were met with “WE ARE CLOSED” 3 times. This lady wouldn’t let us speak and was disgracefully rude. If she had said in a polite manner the tills are closed I would have been fine with that but she was rude while people were still in the store.I would never tolerate someone like her to deal with customers.

Rip Off

I was charged £43 today for 2.5litres of Jasmine white emulsion in the Stamford branch. This is normally around £23 elsewhere, but was the nearest store to me. I never thought it would be that much and was completely shocked, and unfortunately because they mix it for you especially I didn’t feel I could refuse payment. I will certainly never visit again. This is a total rip off.

Rip off merchants

My review is for the Sevenoaks branch, who in my opinion are rip off merchants, not paint merchants! My decorator assured me he could get the masonry paint for my bungalow cheaper. However, that proved not to be the case. He was charged £48.98 by PaintWell for a 5L tin of Sandtex Retail Microseal Fine Textured masonry paint in Plymouth Grey (product code on invoice AP37075F). He ran out towards the end so I googled to see where we could get it locally. It was available in Wickes for £28 (a special offer reduced from the RRP price of £35). When I spoke to PaintWell she told me the code was for a tin of trade paint, but it isn't trade paint (it doesn't mention "trade" anywhere on it) and it is exactly the same tin as the one bought in Wickes for just over £20 less. She insisted that companies can charge differently for the same product. Yes, maybe £5 a tin I would accept but not to the tune of £20 a tin. I cannot speak for other branches but I would avoid this one at all costs. I hope my decorator finds a different store for his future purchases.
