A landlord in Totterdown, Bristol contacted us after their long-term tenant moved out — leaving behind severely damaged walls, peeling wallpaper, signs of damp, and worn-out flooring.
We stepped in as their handyman bristol team to deliver a full post-tenancy refresh:
- Removed all damaged wallpaper and compromised plaster
- Treated damp-affected areas and installed new moisture-resistant plasterboard
- Installed new durable laminate flooring
- Applied fresh paint to key areas and re-hung modern wallpaper on feature walls
The result? A spotless, rent-ready home — all completed with same-day start, minimal dust, and a 3-month guarantee on every job.

The Problem
The client said:
“The previous tenant didn’t look after the place — the walls were damp behind the wallpaper, the floor was lifting, and it just felt tired. I needed someone who could fix the root cause, not just cover it up, so I could get the next tenant in quickly.”
This is a common request we get from landlords across Totterdown, Easton, and Bishopston — people who want to minimise void periods and maximise rental appeal.
