HOW MUCH DOES KITCHEN RENOVATION COST?

As you can probably guess, there’s not a clear answer to how much your kitchen renovation will cost as it greatly depends on your existing kitchen, what you are looking for in the renovation, and of course, your budget. But to give you a general idea of how to estimate the cost of the project, here are some guidelines. Hint: it all comes down to which components of the kitchen will be remodeled. 

KITCHEN CABINETS

For a majority of kitchen renovations, the most amount of money is spent on custom cabinets. The overall cost of cabinets will depend on what material you use, what features you want to include, and the size of the cabinets. Popular cabinet features include appliance garages, pull-out spice cabinets, larger and deeper drawers for pots and pans, and space for a wine rack. If you want open shelving, this can reduce the cost; or if you like the look of glass doors, these can increase the cost.

APPLIANCES

If you are upgrading the fridge, oven, dishwasher, or microwave this can also take up a big chunk of the project cost. Investing in high-end appliances will increase the cost, but it’s also important to remember that they can increase the value of your home. Keep in mind that built-in appliances may require structural changes and additional labor costs, whereas freestanding units will cost less.

COUNTERTOPS

The countertop material is what matters here. Granite, marble, and stainless steel countertops are some of the most expensive materials, but they are popular and offer a variety of benefits. Quartz, wood, and laminate countertops are available at reasonable prices and have several benefits as well. The Kay2 Contracting team can help you decide which is best for your needs.

FLOORING

From ceramic, hardwood, engineered hardwood, tile, stone, or even concrete, there are several materials to choose from that are durable, stain- and scratch-resistant, and affordable.

INSTALLATION AND OTHER COMPONENTS

Labor and installation will also make up a large portion of the cost, as well as various other components, such as faucets and plumbing, lighting, and doors and windows.

WHEN YOU'RE CHANGING THE LAYOUT

If you want to maximize the efficiency of the space and create a more open floor plan, it may require that the overall layout of the kitchen be changed. If you are changing up the layout of the kitchen, there are several things to consider:

  • The Kitchen Triangle: This refers to the arrangement of the sink, refrigerator, and stove; it’s where there is the most activity in the kitchen. This design theory works incredibly well in a majority of kitchens and can give you a starting point in the overall layout and design of the kitchen. However, if you’re looking to complete a luxury kitchen renovation, it helps to think bigger or in terms of work zones. Our kitchen design team can work closely with you to create a layout that will fit your preferences.
  • Appliance Hookups: Moving appliances around also means moving the hookups, which includes electricity, fuel, and plumbing. Experienced renovation contractors can move these components to ensure complete safety and efficiency, but it can increase the overall cost of the project.
  • Maximize Space: When designing a kitchen, it’s all about maximizing usable space, and in a kitchen, that generally means countertops. Whether it’s a long countertop along the wall, an oversized island or even two islands, working with a design team will ensure that every square foot is put to use.

How long does a kitchen renovation typically take in Calgary?

The timeline for a kitchen renovation in Calgary can vary depending on several factors. Generally, a standard kitchen remodel can take anywhere from 4 to 8 weeks. However, more complex projects may extend this timeline.

Key Factors That Affect the Timeline

  1. Scope of the Project: The extent of your renovation will significantly impact how long it takes. A simple cabinet replacement will be quicker than a complete kitchen overhaul.
  2. Material Selection: Choosing materials such as countertops, flooring, and cabinetry can add time, particularly if you’re opting for custom or imported options.
  3. Product Delivery Times: Lead times for materials and appliances can vary. Delays in shipments can push your timeline back by weeks.
  4. Permits and Inspections: If structural changes are involved, obtaining the necessary permits can add time. Inspections may also be required, which can introduce delays.
  5. Additions to the Project Scope: Changes mid-project can extend the timeline. It’s essential to finalize your plans before starting to avoid unexpected delays.

Typical Timeline Breakdown

  • Initial Consultation and Planning (1-2 weeks): This stage involves discussing your vision, getting estimates, and settling on designs.
  • Material Selection and Ordering (2-3 weeks): Once your plan is set, selecting and ordering materials and products takes place.
  • Demolition and Preparation (1 week): The old kitchen is removed, and the space is prepped for the new installation.
  • Installation (2-4 weeks): This is the most intensive phase where your new kitchen takes shape.
  • Final Touches and Inspections (1 week): Finishing details and any required inspections are completed before you can enjoy your new kitchen.


By understanding these factors and planning accordingly, you can have a more accurate expectation of how long your kitchen renovation will take in Calgary.

Selecting Your Kitchen Materials and Finishes

When you have created an efficient and functional kitchen layout, it’s time to select materials and finishes. Designing a kitchen really is the fun part, it’s where you can pick colors, cabinet features, countertops, flooring, backsplashes, fixtures, and all of the things that go into a welcoming and beautiful kitchen. But kitchen design can also be stressful and overwhelming, especially if you aren’t sure what you want or how to tie in a new kitchen with existing style choices throughout your home. 

At Kay2 Contracting, we know how incredibly important design is, so we include basic kitchen design services into our prices. We realize that a majority of Calgary homeowners don’t have experience designing kitchens, so we will put our expertise and knowledge to work, ensuring you get a kitchen renovation that exceeds your expectations. With our designers, you can be confident that your kitchen will have a cohesive look and feel.

FLOORING

Engineered hardwoods and tile are common kitchen flooring materials as they are durable, low-maintenance, and offer exceptional value. Engineered hardwood floors are made of several layers of composite material with a hardwood layer on top. They are affordable, low-maintenance, moisture-resistant, come in a variety of colors, and are generally less expensive than hardwood. Tile also comes in a variety of colors and finishes, and when choosing tile, you can create unique patterns in the flooring. Tile is also very durable and low-maintenance.

COUNTERTOPS

The countertops and kitchen island if there is one are often the centerpieces of the kitchen. Many popular materials, including granite and quartz, come in several colors and have unique markings to give your home a custom look.

FINISHES

The faucet, hardware on the cabinets, and the backsplash are examples of finishings that work to bring together the entire space and have a significant impact on the overall style of your kitchen.

Your Needs or Tastes Have Changed

As we briefly touched on before, it’s common for families with children to eventually see their loved ones move out of the house and into their own houses or apartments. If you’re a parent in this situation, you may find yourself wanting to update your cooking and dining space to better accommodate your own needs. A kitchen renovation allows you to incorporate more seating if you envision yourself entertaining your friends often, or to use the space for storage or cooking purposes. No matter what you’d like to do, though, Kay2 Contracting’s kitchen renovations in Calgary and kitchen renovations in Edmonton can help! Trust our designers to help you change up your counters, cabinets, or your color scheme to better suit your current tastes.

Your Appliances are Past Their Prime

A few different kitchen appliances are known for their long lifespans, such as the refrigerator, oven, stovetop, or microwave. But if you find yourself at a point in your Alberta home when these appliances aren’t working as well as they used to, it’s a certain indicator that a kitchen renovation is needed. Frequent malfunction is an indication these assets are exceeding their life expectancy and will need to be replaced, meaning there will already be large areas of your kitchen that will be changing. Kay2 Contracting’s award-winning renovation contractors recommend taking care of everything all at once and taking this opportunity to experience our excellent communication, attention to detail, and customer service. Let us help you refurbish your entire kitchen so you can have an entirely new space!
