Well what can I say they couldn't even be bothered to reply to my quote request awful service - if this is how much they care about their customers then I will definitely not be using them. Contacted a local service and had a reply within hours even though they were so busy - Magicman maybe learn from your peers and stick to magic

After contacting the "magicman" and explaining the issue I needed resolving, the gentlemen I spoke to reassured me the issue I had should be repairable. 3 weeks later I was still waiting for a reply/acknowledgment of the Email I sent. I contacted the company 3 times and on the 3rd call I was told there was nothing they could do. The gentlemen I spoke to blamed it on staff shortages. Poor service from a supposed market leader.

Avoid Magicman, carried out two repairs for me recently both to a very poor standard and failed within first few weeks, tried to get them back - waste of time excuse after excuse. don't respond to emails. Very poor for what I thought was a decent company

There's a lesson here in not having read the reviews first. Turned up an hour later than booked to repair chips in washbasin. Chips filled well but coating flaked off in less than a week after minimal usage - various excuses for why a re-repair wouldn't be covered under warranty (scratches on the basin coating in the photo I sent across meaning water gets underneath and coating doesn't bond.the minor scratches in the photo were from my thumbnail investigating after the coating started flaking, but never mind!).
After reading the reviews here I abandoned any further argument as a waste of time, put it down to experience, and will buy a replacement unit (about half the price of a second repair, even after the 'gesture of goodwill' discount that I've been offered, and ignoring that I have already spent 180.). Interestingly, after contacting local alternative repair specialists, I haven't found one that will touch a washbasin for this very reason - so seems a bit of a scam.

I've used Magicman a couple of times now, once for tile repair and once to repair a wooden door. I have been really impressed by the result both times and the technicians have both been very polite, helpful and professional, as have the team I've spoken to on the phone about the appointments. You do have to pay the full amount prior to your appointment, but in my experience, I have been happy with the end result so this has been ok!

Appalled with the service received! These are fraudsters so watch out. Scope of work provided over the phone (recorded calls) and on email with images attached. Company supplied a quote for works with payment demanded upfront (we wonder why). They then arrive at the job and refuse to carry out all of the work requested as it was not detailed within their quote. 450 later and a window that closes and some bath chips concealed. May as well purchased a new bath!
