How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Hamilton?

How long does it take?
A full kitchen renovation typically runs 3–6 weeks on site. Custom cabinets often take 6–12 weeks to arrive, so we order them before demolition so you are not without a kitchen longer than necessary.
How we work
Design & scope
We walk through your goals, layout options and budget, then quote it in writing.
Demo & rough-in
Old kitchen out, plumbing and electrical relocated where the new layout needs it.
Cabinets, counters & tile
Cabinetry installed, counters templated and set, backsplash tiled.
Finishing & walkthrough
Fixtures, hardware, final details, and a walkthrough before we call it done.
What can go wrong with a kitchen renovation — and how we prevent it
- Cabinet lead times. A kitchen with no cabinets on site is a stalled kitchen. We confirm delivery dates before the old kitchen comes out.
- Surprises behind the walls. Old wiring, plumbing and hidden framing are common. We flag likely conditions at the walkthrough and price discoveries in writing before proceeding.
- Counters cut to the wrong measurements. Counters are templated only after cabinets are set and level, not from drawings.
- Decisions made mid-demo. Layout and appliance choices are locked in before demolition, because changing them later costs the most.
Why Jopie
A kitchen renovation touches almost every trade at once — that's exactly the coordination problem professional project management solves. We keep the sequence tight so cabinets aren't waiting on electrical that's waiting on drywall.
What a client says
The quality of their workmanship is outstanding. Every detail was completed with care, and they took the time to fix and touch up areas that needed attention instead of cutting corners.
A finished kitchen needs a clean paint finish: see painting and ceiling painting.
