★★★★★
"Brilliant service. After being let down by another handyman company, I contacted the bristol handyman team. Replied straight away and fitted in within 4 days. Jobs done within 2 hours and polite and professional and friendly."

"Hosein did a great job at short notice redecorating our sitting room. The job turned out to be more complicated than expected (after stripping the wallpaper the wall was in worse condition than we thought) and he was quick to let us know and easily handled the more complex job. We were very pleased with the final result."
Greg Chadwick, Redland
★★★★★
"These guys are experts! Very professional and fast work redoing my bathroom floor and tiles. They were able to easily identify unexpected extra problems (a leaking toilet and rotted floors) and fix those too, all well within the timeframe they first gave me. They came up with a creative solution to fixing a rotary shelf and cupboard door in my kitchen that two previous handymen had been unable to fix and I had begun to despair over, so I am very grateful for that! I would definitely hire again."
Sienna Parulis-Cook, Totterdown

Frequently Asked Questions

We carefully sand down dried drips and runs using fine-grit abrasives, then feather-edge the area before re-priming and repainting. Our colour-matching expertise ensures the repaired section blends seamlessly with the surrounding wall, leaving no visible trace of the original mistake.

Yes, in most cases. For fresh spills, we use specialised solvents that won’t damage finishes. For dried paint, we employ gentle scraping techniques combined with polishing compounds. On delicate surfaces like laminate or upholstered furniture, we test methods in inconspicuous areas first to guarantee safe, effective removal.

Cracking and peeling typically result from poor surface preparation—such as painting over dust, grease, or loose old paint—or applying paint in unsuitable conditions (too cold, too humid). We address the root cause by properly cleaning, sanding and priming surfaces before applying high-quality, breathable trade paints that flex with temperature changes.

We start by identifying the cause—often uneven roller pressure, insufficient paint coverage, or colour mismatch. Then we lightly sand the transition areas, apply a tinted primer if needed, and re-roll the entire wall section using professional techniques (maintaining a wet edge, consistent pressure) to achieve a uniform, professional finish.

Most corrections take 1–2 days for a standard room, depending on the extent of prep work required. Simple drip removal may take just a few hours, while extensive patchwork, colour correction or full repaints could require 2–3 days. We’ll provide a clear timeline after assessing your specific situation—often with just photos sent via WhatsApp.
