Kay2 Contracting, Canmore
Home renovations in Canmore
Kay2 brings the design-build team BILD Calgary Region has twice named Renovator of the Year to Canmore homeowners, from kitchens and interiors to additions and whole-home renovations.
Canmore sits in the Bow Valley about an hour west of Calgary and is part of Kay2's service area. Canmore homeowners work with the same team and process as our Calgary clients, with in-house design at no extra charge, a fixed-price contract signed before construction starts, and one project manager from planning to handover.
A lot of Canmore homes are built around the view, and many are second homes that need to be easy to look after. Kay2 designs kitchens, interiors, additions and whole-home renovations that make the most of the mountains, as we did with the open main floor and covered mountain-view deck on our award-finalist Lower Springbank home.
Building permits inside Canmore are issued by the Town of Canmore, which also has its own design guidelines on top of the building code. Because the crew travels from Calgary, Kay2 plans permits, lead times, deliveries and each phase of the work before construction begins.
Every Kay2 project
- In-house design at no extra charge
- Fixed-price contract before construction starts

FAQ
Your questions about renovating in Canmore
Can't see your question? Call 403.273.2202 or send us your project.
Does Kay2 do home renovations in Canmore?
Yes. Canmore is part of Kay2's service area, and Canmore homeowners get the same design-build team, fixed-price contract and project manager as our Calgary clients.
Who issues building permits for a Canmore renovation?
The Town of Canmore issues building permits within town limits, and it has its own design guidelines on top of the building code. Kay2 plans permits, lead times and each phase of the work before construction begins.
Can Kay2 renovate a second home in Canmore while we live in Calgary?
Yes. You meet the designer and choose finishes at our Calgary Showroom, and one project manager runs the site and keeps you updated, so you do not need to be in Canmore for the day to day work.
How much does a home renovation cost in Canmore?
Cost depends on the scope and finishes more than the town. Kay2's renovation cost calculator and free Calgary Renovation Cost Guide give realistic ranges, and every Kay2 project is priced on a fixed-price contract before construction starts.
Where can I see finishes before I choose them?
At the Kay2 Showroom and Design Centre, 3336 47 Ave SE, Calgary. Visits are by appointment so a designer can walk you through the materials.
