Expert Kitchen Renovations in Burnaby

A cosmetic swap of cabinets, countertops, flooring, and paint without moving plumbing or electrical usually doesn't need one. Most full kitchen renovations do, since they involve at least one of a new or relocated circuit, plumbing changes, or a wall modification. Burnaby runs applications through its online ePlan portal and typically issues straightforward permits in 4 to 8 weeks. See City of Burnaby's home improvement permits page.

Burnaby has a large highrise stock around Metrotown. Strata bylaws govern what can change, building management controls elevator and parkade access for materials, and work hours are typically restricted to weekdays. We coordinate all of it, plus the strata approval package (renovation plan, WorkSafeBC clearance, $2 million liability insurance), alongside the municipal permit.

Burnaby's older postwar bungalows often have plumbing and electrical sized for a much smaller kitchen than what homeowners want today, so panel or circuit upgrades come up more often than in newer condo towers, which typically just need layout and finish changes.

A cosmetic update runs 2 to 3 weeks. A full renovation with layout changes typically takes 6 to 10 weeks including permit processing, plus strata approval time for highrise units.
