• New cabinets and countertops: $7,483.16
• Wood flooring: $6,392
• Stone countertops: $3,839
• Cabinets (refinishing): $3,819
• Ceramic flooring: $2,333

​These are average costs, so your actual cost will depend on the quality of materials that you choose to use for your kitchen renovation.

​According to Nancy Peterson, Founder and CEO of Homestars, a website that connects consumers with contractors and other home improvement professionals, says that, according to their data, the average kitchen renovation in Canada costs around $25,000 — but, she adds, that number depends on how extensive the work is and whether you’re doing an outright gut of the space and replacing everything with new stuff. “A major renovation can cost as much as $50,000,” she explains, “especially if you’re buying high-end appliances or cabinets, which are by far the biggest expense in any kitchen renovation.”

​

The 20% rule

​Experts say to add between 20% and 25% on top of your budget to handle unexpected costs. Based on the average cost of a Canadian renovation, a healthy buffer would be to add 20% above your estimated total to cover anything that pops out of the blue.

This can include dry rot in the walls, foundation issues, asbestos insulation in older homes, etc.

​

Having this cushion in place will assure you of a much more enjoyable kitchen renovation experience so if unexpected problems arise, you will be prepared and ready for them.

Benefits of an Abbotsford Kitchen Renovation

Performing an Abbotsford Kitchen Renovation is an excellent way to breathe new life into your home. Whether you are ready to embark on a full kitchen remodel or you want to modernize a few features, updating your kitchen will bring about a number of benefits. These are great reasons to move forward with creating your dream kitchen!

1. Improve Functionality

The kitchen is the heart of the home and it tends to be a gathering place for families. There are many different ways you can improve the overall function of your kitchen. For example, you can add more cabinets or build an island to provide more storage and counter space. Or if you want to take the kitchen remodel up a notch, you can knock down the wall between the living room and kitchen in order to allow for a more open floor plan. Or maybe you want to put a wall between them to close off the kitchen. Either way, a well-designed kitchen will make cooking and cleaning more efficient.

2. Add Valuable Living Space

Today’s kitchens tend to have a more open floor plan compared to the limited space of older kitchen design. Kitchen remodeling gives you the freedom to make various changes to the layout. A great layout that opens the kitchen, dining room, and the living room makes socializing easy. A roomy kitchen with less walls also gives the person who’s cooking or cleaning the ability to watch television or converse with people in other rooms. Many prefer this loft style design for their kitchen.

3. Increase Your Home Value

Many prospective buyers look to the kitchen first as to determine if the house is one they will buy. Renovating your kitchen can easily satisfy this requirement when done right. Making your kitchen up to modern standards can make for an easy sale of your home when it is time to sell.

4. Lower Energy Costs

Kitchen remodeling allows you to include upgrade your appliances to more eco-friendly models. Today’s newer appliances are much more efficient and reduce your hydro bill. You can even install water-saving faucets to reduce your water usage. You can also incorporate more sustainable materials for your floors, cabinets, or countertops such as bamboo, cork, or salvaged wood. Newer materials are more resistant to rot and mildew build-up. Longer lasting items will save you money in the long run.

5. Bring New Life To Your Home

Kitchen designs have changed over the years and if your home was built in the 1990’s or beyond, chances are your kitchen is in need of an update. Kitchen remodeling is a great way to breathe new life into an older home. You can give your kitchen an entirely new look by updating the cabinets, painting the walls, and replacing the appliances and floors.

Kitchen Renovation Before And After

• We opened up the space by removing the separating wall.
• Changed the cabinets
• Flooring
• Sinks
• Faucets
• Tile Backsplash
• Paint
• And New Appliances

The end result is an open space kitchen with a fresh modern look and new improved functionality.
