Plan your Southampton kitchen cabinet refinishing project
Kitchen cabinet refinishing across Southampton brings Portswood, Highfield and Ocean Village kitchens up to date without the cost or upheaval of replacement — full off-site door spray, on-site HVLP carcass finish.

Before a specification is agreed
Edwardian and inter-war housing in Portswood and Highfield, dockside high-rise apartments around Ocean Village and Centenary Quay, plus 1960s commercial stock on Above Bar.
Neighbouring areas included in the route
From SO14–SO19, projects can be grouped naturally across Ocean Village, Bitterne, Shirley and the surrounding route. This is a working coverage guide rather than an invented distance claim.

A track record with comparable constraints
Recent SO refinishes have included Portswood in-frame kitchens and Ocean Village modern apartments.
Comparable brief: A typical the area kitchen refinish is a Portswood Edwardian semi's in-frame kitchen — colour change to Little Greene Pleat, reinstated in 7–10 days with new handles and end-panel upgrade.

Methods and finishes for this project type
We spray with pigmented 2K polyurethane for a hard, durable, low-sheen finish that resists chipping around handles and high-wear edges.
Three details to resolve before work starts
Cruise-terminal traffic and the Itchen Bridge tolls shape our scheduling — early starts before peak make a real difference on city-centre jobs.
Older in-frame Edwardian kitchens benefit from frame-level prep cycles
Modern Ocean Village apartments often have very tight reinstatement windows
Itchen Bridge tolls shape East/West collection runs

Turn the brief into a workable programme
We spray with pigmented 2K polyurethane for a hard, durable, low-sheen finish that resists chipping around handles and high-wear edges. We can turn that technical starting point into a site-specific proposal after reviewing the surfaces and how the building is used. For this kitchen cabinet refinishing brief in SO14–SO19, the survey will focus on older in-frame edwardian kitchens benefit from frame-level prep cycles.
