Paul Richardson, Manchester — Ice White
Paul wanted a clean, timeless white surface to complement his narrowboat interior and keep day to day upkeep simple. In our first conversation, he explained that other manufacturers had considered the project too difficult because of the tight access and compact dimensions typical on a narrowboat. We agreed the priorities: keep the look classic, keep the process swift, and plan the work so access and handling would not be an issue. Ice White matched the brief with a bright, neutral tone that works well in smaller spaces and varied lighting.
We set a clear, step by step plan from enquiry to installation. Our team confirmed pricing, outlined how we would manage access, and arranged a rapid site visit so Paul could keep his wider project moving. As a Which? Trusted Trader, we also set expectations on communication and timing, making sure he knew exactly what would happen and when. That structure gave confidence that the canal boat setting would be handled professionally.

Customer Testimonial
“The experience with Mayfair Worktops was really quick, they came out, measured up within a few days and less than a week later it was fitted. I like that the white stays really clean, it complements the rest of the boat, its classic. I would definitely recommend Mayfair Worktops for other projects, I will use them again myself for other projects.”

A Personalised and Seamless Experience
Once Ice White was confirmed, we issued an itemised quote and scheduled templating within days. Before the visit, we shared a short preparation checklist that covered access routes, clearance, and safe staging areas on the towpath. During templating, our technician verified key dimensions and service positions and noted where sectional handling would make delivery safer inside the boat.
We then aligned fabrication and fitting on a single timeline. With approvals complete, installation was booked for the same week. Throughout, Paul received concise updates from one point of contact. That rhythm kept decisions quick and ensured the worktop installation could be coordinated with the other tasks happening on board without delays.
Precision Craftsmanship That Speaks for Itself
Accuracy starts at measurement. Our team captured the interior carefully and confirmed aesthetic details with Paul so the final result would reflect his preference for a crisp, classic look. The notes guided fabrication to produce pieces sized for narrow access, with handling planned to protect both the cabin and the material during delivery.
On installation day, our fitters arrived on time and managed access in stages. Surfaces were positioned with care, secured, sealed where appropriate, and polished to a calm, even finish. We completed a walk through before leaving and provided simple aftercare guidance suited to life on the water. The Ice White surface feels integrated and stays easy to keep clean.
Why Paul Chose Mayfair Worktops
Paul told us speed and certainty were essential, and that the narrowboat setting had been a barrier for others. Our plan addressed access from the start and provided a clear schedule, which made the choice simple. Our Which? Trusted Trader accreditation added assurance that standards and aftercare would match the promises set at the outset.
Ice White delivered the classic look he wanted and remains straightforward to maintain. With a tidy installation completed to plan in a setting that can be challenging, Paul is confident to recommend the experience and has already considered us for future projects.
