Compact Studio Refurb in Bristol | Bathroom & Kitchen Fix by Handyman Bristol

A small studio room in Bristol — just approx. 200 sq ft — was being let out as part of a room-by-room rental property. The space had a kitchen corner and a bathroom corner, but both were in a state of serious disrepair.

The client needed a reliable handyman bristol who could handle multiple trades in a tight space — without disrupting other tenants.

We stepped in to deliver a complete compact-space refurbishment:

• Removed the broken shower tray and replaced it with a new, watertight model
• Replaced the old toilet with a modern, space-saving close-coupled unit
• Replaced the first row of wall tiles to ensure a clean, sealed finish
• Installed luxury vinyl flooring throughout — durable, water-resistant, and easy to clean
• Fitted a new kitchen sink, laminate worktop, and one new base unit to restore functionality

The result? A safe, clean, and fully functional studio — ready for a new tenant, all completed with minimal noise, dust, and disruption.

The client said:

“The studio was only about 200 sq ft, but it had everything — a tiny kitchen, a bathroom, and living space. The shower tray was cracked, the floor was soft and smelly, and the kitchen corner was basically unusable. I needed someone who could fix it all quickly, quietly, and without affecting the other tenants.”

This is a common challenge with HMO properties, studio lets, and small rentals across Bristol, Easton, and Totterdown — where every square metre counts, and repairs must be efficient, tidy, and cost-effective.

We treated this as a precision project — maximising function in minimal space:
