Kitchen Renovations in Burnaby
DESIGNED AROUND HOW YOU LIVE
Kitchen renovations in Burnaby cover everything from strata condo kitchens near Brentwood and Lougheed to full custom builds in established neighbourhoods like Capitol Hill and Burnaby Heights. We manage design, City of Burnaby permits, custom cabinetry, and construction in-house, and for condos we handle strata approvals and the building logistics that come with renovating in a tower.
Renovating a Kitchen in Burnaby: Condos, Strata Rules, and Older Homes
Condo Kitchen Renovation we completed.
Burnaby has one of the highest concentrations of condo and townhome living in Metro Vancouver, with dense housing clustered around the Brentwood, Metrotown, and Lougheed town centres. That shapes a large share of the kitchen renovations we do here. Renovating a kitchen in a Burnaby high-rise is not the same as renovating in a detached house: strata bylaws govern what can change, building management controls elevator and parkade access for moving materials, and there are strict rules on work hours and noise. We manage all of it, from securing strata approval to scheduling deliveries within the building's windows, so the project stays on track and on good terms with the building.
Burnaby Kitchen Renovation we completed.
Burnaby's single-family neighbourhoods tell a different story. Many homes through Burnaby Heights, Capitol Hill, and the areas around Deer Lake were built mid-century with compact, closed-off kitchens separated from the living space. A large part of our work in these homes is opening those kitchens up, relocating walls where the structure allows, and reworking the layout for the open, connected flow most families want today. Whether the project is a tight condo galley or a full single-family rebuild, we manage it through the City of Burnaby's permitting process and coordinate every trade from start to finish.
QUESTIONS?
faq
-
Most kitchen renovations in Burnaby fall between $60,000 and $100,000 or more, depending on size, layout changes, and finish level. A condo kitchen update at Brentwood or Metrotown typically sits at the lower end, while a full custom kitchen with new cabinetry, stone counters, and appliance upgrades in a single-family home runs higher. We provide a detailed line-item budget before any work begins so every cost is clear up front.
-
A typical Burnaby kitchen renovation takes six to twelve weeks of construction once design and permits are finalized. Condo projects can take longer to schedule because of strata approvals and building access rules, while single-family kitchens move faster. We build the timeline into your project plan so you know what to expect before demolition starts.
-
A cosmetic kitchen refresh usually does not need a permit, but any work involving plumbing relocation, electrical changes, or removing walls requires a permit from the City of Burnaby. For condos, you will also need strata approval before work begins. We handle the City of Burnaby permitting and coordinate with your strata so the project stays compliant.
-
Yes. A large share of Burnaby's housing is condos and townhomes, and we regularly renovate kitchens in towers around Brentwood, Metrotown, and Lougheed. These projects involve strata approvals, elevator and parkade booking for materials, and noise and timing rules, all of which we manage so the renovation runs smoothly within the building's requirements.
-
That depends on your goals and what the space allows. Many older Burnaby homes and condos have closed-off or galley-style kitchens that we open up for better flow and storage. During design we assess whether walls can be moved, what is structural, and how to make the layout work for how you actually cook and gather.
-
We always work with an interior designer on kitchen projects to uphold the standard our renovations are known for. If you already have a designer you would like to use, we are happy to collaborate with them. If not, we have a trusted network of designers we work with regularly and can bring the right one onto your project, so the design is handled either way.
