Home renovation steps
1. Creating concept: the vision of the client is a basis which guides our professionals’
work. The goal of every renovation expert is to turn the customer’s ideas into
structured and functional designs. Our team manages all the necessary requirements
and permits needed in the area, allowing the client to just dream and share ideas. We
often use 3D technologies to see a more realistic version of every concept before we
begin a renovation.
2. Detailed design: in this step all the elements of the concept are composed into a
comprehensive design. Colours, textures, materials – everything is discussed and the
client knows exactly what they will see at the end of the renovation.
3. Budgeting: it is hard to plan any renovation or remodeling process without figuring
out the budget beforehand. The goal here is strike a balance between all the clients’
wishes and budget limitations. After the final budget for the renovation has been set, it
becomes easier to decide on the price for every step of the project.
4. Acquiring permits: this is done in accordance with local regulations.
5. The renovation itself: this is when the work begins within the house. In general, it
begins with demolition and all the necessary operations with plumbing, heating,
electricity, etc. Then the house gets painted and the flooring is installed, only after
which goes the cabinetry and small finishing touches.
Kitchen renovation
It is no secret that most people want to have a dream house with all the rooms being done in
accordance with the owners’ desires. A proper plan for a kitchen renovation is a great way to
improve the general appearance of the home, and while the kitchen is the most expensive
room to renovate, with the help of professionals these expenses will pay off in the long run.
Why is it worth to renovate the kitchen
Kitchens are important not only for those who currently live in this house, but also for
potential homebuyers. It is not only the most used room in the house for many, but also the
perfect space to fulfill all your interior design dreams.
Here are some of the benefits of a kitchen renovation:
Enhanced functionality: kitchen renovation includes remodeling, replacement of
outdated elements and new element additions. Spending time in a new, modern
kitchen as well as cooking there becomes more fun, more pleasant and efficient.
Decreased energy expenses: since kitchen renovation almost always involves
replacing old electronic appliances, it also decreases the costs of energy. The majority
of modern appliances have LED Models which save energy, thus changing electronic
appliances in the kitchen makes it more energy efficient.
Increased sustainability: energy efficiency automatically makes a kitchen eco-
friendly. To further explore this opportunity, you can use sustainable materials such as
bamboo, concrete slabs, wood and stone for countertops, cabinets, and other surfaces.
Enhanced comfort: professionals can suggest how to make the kitchen more
comfortable and safe — for example by installing smart cabinets, built-in appliances
or adding a kitchen island.
Modern look: making the kitchen up-to-date is probably the most common desire of
every person who hires a contractor.
Increased value of the house: a renovated kitchen can become the selling point for
potential buyers.
Kitchen renovation planning: what to consider
The first important thing is to determine the desired final outcome. Kitchen renovation is
way more than just improving the visual look of a room. Some may focus on how to utilize
available space better — it may even be a crucial point for some people, others may want to
add extra functionality. It is also a popular request to connect the kitchen with other rooms,
often a dining or a living room to create an open space, thus it’s important to determine the
final goat before starting planning.
There is no such plan that can be done without setting a budget. It may be unreasonable to
spend a lot on a luxury kitchen if the house is worth not more than $150,000 — the
investments will simply not return. Similarly, if the renovation is done on a low budget while
the property costs more than half a million, there is a risk of decreasing the overall value. The
solution here is to estimate the cost of the house beforehand, as well as the existing financial
limitations.
A common mistake when renovating a house is focusing more on grand operations like
plumbing and electricity, and leaving the purchase of kitchen appliances for the last moment.
Often it results in going over the budget or, on the contrary, choosing items of lower quality.
Generally, it is recommended to leave 15–20% of the budget for appliances.
Doing a renovation on your own and not hiring professionals may seem like a cost-effective
approach to renovation, but it is associated with a variety of risks as many stages of
renovation require a specialist for a safe outcome.
Attention to details often makes up the big picture. In interior design especially, every
element plays its own role. Whether it is the shape of the faucet or the color of the tiles it is
extremely important to think about the materials that are going to be used in the project. It is
better to choose materials that are easy to clean, have high longevity, but are stylish and will
enhance the overall design.
Usually the choice of a color scheme depends on the future of this house and, consequently,
of its kitchen. If the plan is to sell the house after all the renovation is done, it is best to use
neutral colors, so the kitchen will appeal to all potential homebuyers. Such light kitchens are
always high in demand, since they appear bright, clean, and spacious.
Kitchen renovation desires often spark from the lack of space in the old kitchen. Increasing
the storage space becomes a crucial factor for big families especially. One of the best options
is to install built-in appliances: they save valuable space and look extremely elegant.
Kitchen renovation costs
Even the smallest improvements, such as painting the walls or cabinets a different color,
replacing the sink, installing a new faucet, changing the lighting can cost $5,000 and more. If
you add larger-scale operations like demolition of walls, installation of new countertops the
price could run up to $50,000.
The important factor in estimating the costs is the overall price of a house. Considering
Vancouver prices, a full kitchen renovation in a house here will cost around $100,000.
