Office Refurbishment in Hampshire
Cosgrove Painting Contractors manages small commercial refurbishments for businesses and property teams across Hampshire. We coordinate all the required trades and deliver the project as a single, managed package, from initial strip-out through to final clean and handover.
We specialise in projects in the £5,000 to £50,000 range. That is the space between a sole trader decorator and a large main contractor with significant overheads attached. We are the right size for this kind of work, and we are set up to deliver it properly.
25 Years Experience
The Problem With Managing a Refurbishment Yourself
Most businesses and facilities managers do not want to source a decorator, a flooring contractor, a joiner and a tiler separately, and then coordinate all four of them around each other while also keeping their own operation running.
Finding each trade takes time. Scheduling them in the right sequence takes experience. When one trade overruns, it creates a knock-on for everyone else. And when something goes wrong, everyone points at someone else.
We offer a simpler alternative
One Point of Contact, All Trades
For office refurbishment projects, we act as the single point of contact and coordinate all required trades through our trusted subcontractor network:
-
Painting and decoration
-
Tiling
-
Flooring replacement
-
Joinery and partition alterations
-
Ceiling works
-
Plumbing and electrics (via certified trades)
-
Strip-out and reinstatement
​
You brief us once. We manage the trades, the sequencing and the programme. You receive the finished result.
How we work
Clear scope before we start
We agree exactly what is included, what the programme looks like, and what the budget is before a single trade sets foot on site. No vague estimates. No costs that appear later because the scope was never properly defined.
Structured sequencing
Trades are scheduled in the right order. No flooring going in before the ceiling work is done. No decorator waiting around because the joiner has not finished. A well-sequenced programme keeps costs controlled and projects on time.
Minimal disruption
We plan works around your business. Where phasing is possible, we phase it. Where out-of-hours access is needed, we arrange it. Your team should be able to keep working throughout, not navigating a building site.
Accountable throughout
You deal with the directors throughout the project. Not a site manager you have never met, not a subcontractor acting on their own initiative. If there is an issue, it gets resolved quickly by the people responsible for the project.
Accredited and compliant
We hold Constructionline Silver accreditation and are SMAS registered. For procurement teams and facilities managers working to approved contractor lists, we meet the standard.
Typical projects
We regularly deliver office refurbishments in the £5,000 to £50,000 range, including:
-
Full office redecorations with new flooring and ceiling works
-
Reception and client-facing area upgrades
-
Multi-room office refurbishments
-
Office fit-out packages for newly leased commercial units
-
Strip-out and reinstatement prior to re-letting
-
Staff welfare area upgrades

Why Cosgrove
01
25 years of commercial experience
Cosgrove Painting Contractors has been delivering painting and decorating work across Hampshire since the late 1990s. Our new build contracts, still the backbone of the business, have given us the scale, discipline and quality systems that smaller decorators simply haven't built.
02
​Constructionline Silver accredited
We're registered with Constructionline at Silver level, giving facilities managers and procurement teams the assurance that our health and safety, financial and business practices have been independently verified.
03
SMAS accredited
Our SMAS accreditation confirms we meet the standards required for safe contracting in commercial environments.
04
A managed trade network
​For refurbishment projects, we coordinate trusted subcontractors across decoration, tiling, flooring, joinery and certified plumbing and electrical trades. You get a single, joined-up project — not a series of separate contractors to manage yourself.
05
Owner-managed and accountable
Steve and Dominic Cosgrove run the business. When you work with Cosgrove, you're dealing with the people whose name is on the company. That matters when a decision needs to be made quickly or an issue needs to be resolved.
Covering Hampshire and the Surrounding Area
We work with businesses across Hampshire, including Southampton, Portsmouth, Winchester, Basingstoke, Fareham, Eastleigh, Chandler's Ford and the surrounding areas.
