How much does a luxury kitchen renovation cost in Vancouver?
A high-end kitchen renovation in Vancouver typically ranges from $100K to $200K depending on the size of the space, material selections, appliance upgrades, and the complexity of the layout. At Smithwood Builders, we provide detailed estimates tailored to your vision, ensuring clarity from day one.
How long will my kitchen renovation take?
Most full kitchen renovations take 12 to 16 weeks to complete. The timeline depends on factors such as the size of your kitchen, the scope of work, permitting requirements, and the level of customization. Our team manages every detail and keeps you informed at each step to ensure a smooth, efficient process.
Do I need permits for my kitchen remodel?
Yes, permits are required for most kitchen renovations involving structural changes, plumbing, gas, or electrical work. Structural permits are arranged by your architect or interior designer, while Smithwood Builders coordinates all trade-related permits and inspections. We ensure the renovation is completed in full compliance with building codes, meeting all safety and regulatory standards.
How do you manage cost control during the renovation?
We lock in estimates from trades and vendors, providing transparent, itemized quotes and a detailed scope of work so you know exactly what to expect. Throughout the project, your dedicated project manager oversees timelines and spending, ensuring you have the clarity to make informed decisions that align with your goals and budget.
