What’s included

What a kitchen
renovation includes.

A kitchen renovation in East Gwillimbury covers the whole room: where the sink, range and fridge go, whether an island or a peninsula fits and whether the dividing wall stays, then the cabinetry, the quartz, granite or marble counters, the backsplash, the floor and the lighting, with the plumbing and new circuits drawn on the same plan.

  1. Layout and design

    Working out where to put the sink, fridge and range, the path you take between them, and if a wall stays.

    • A measured plan of the room
    • An island or a peninsula
    • Opening the kitchen to the next room
    • A design to review before work starts

  2. Cabinetry and islands

    The tall wall and the awkward corner both get used, because the storage is built for your room.

    • Custom cabinetry
    • Custom islands
    • Pantry and drawer storage
    • Hardware

  3. Counters and backsplash

    The surfaces that take the wear, chosen for how you cook and how much care you want to give them.

    • Quartz, granite and marble counters
    • Tile backsplash
    • Sink and faucet installation

  4. Floors and finishing

    Once the rest is in, the floor, trim and lighting finish the job and make one room of it.

    • Hardwood or tile flooring
    • Lighting
    • Trim and paint

Open oak shelves stand either side of the hood, and black-framed windows wrap the corner of the room.

Stone, light and a walk-in shower

A navy double vanity beside a generous shower in warm stone tile.

A clear glass panel keeps the shower open to the room, and a niche for bottles is set into its tiled wall.

Oak, navy cabinetry

A lower level to settle into

A basement lounge with built-in storage and daylight from generous windows.

Strip lighting runs above the shelves, and a desk is built into the same wall beside them.

Cedar, glass

Cedar behind the glass

A glass-fronted cedar sauna beside a calm wellness space.

Cedar boards line the walls and the ceiling inside and carry on across the wall outside the glass, so the sauna reads as part of the room.

Oak, pale stone, navy

An open main floor

A kitchen, dining space and living room connected by warm oak flooring.

Tall windows and a glazed door run the length of the back wall, so the island, the table and the sofa share the same daylight.

Kitchen renovation permits in East Gwillimbury

The line the Town draws is plumbing. Its list of work needing no building permit includes kitchen cupboards where no plumbing alterations are proposed, so new cabinets on the same footprint fall inside it. An island sink, a prep sink or a dishwasher on a new drain fall outside it, because installing plumbing is part of what a Town permit covers.

What the age of the house does to the price

In Mount Albert, the south and east quadrants were built up from the 1970s, and a subdivision to the north west was started in 1995. A kitchen on the older streets has had longer for drains, supply lines and wiring to be patched or extended, and those decide whether a new layout is simple. So the first visit opens the sink base, traces the lines and checks the panel.

East Gwillimbury kitchen renovation, drawn before demolition

Before any cabinet is ordered, we measure the room and draw it, and every trade works from that drawing. Our office is in East Gwillimbury and we have renovated for more than 15 years. The budget is settled with you first, and work starts once the design is approved and the agreement signed. A change partway is priced in cost and time before it is built.
