General Contractor in Burnaby, BC

Kitchen Renovations in Burnaby

Burnaby is one of our busiest service areas, and for good reason: the city mixes 1960s ranchers in Capitol Hill and Burnaby Heights with brand new towers in Metrotown and Brentwood, and both need kitchen work. Old To New handles the full range: custom cabinetry, quartz and granite countertops, backsplash tile, islands, appliance integration, lighting and complete layout reconfigurations. We are a fully insured general contractor, we manage City of Burnaby permits, and every quote is free.

Opening up Burnaby's 1960s ranchers

Drive through Capitol Hill, Burnaby Heights or the streets around Deer Lake and you will see hundreds of solid post-war ranchers with one shared flaw: a small, closed-off kitchen at the back of the house. Converting these to open concept is the single most common kitchen project we do in Burnaby. The dividing wall is often load bearing, so we complete a structural assessment, install an engineered beam, and pull the City of Burnaby permit for the work. From there we rebuild the space around an island, run new circuits for modern appliances, and vent the range hood properly to the exterior. The transformation is dramatic because the original bones are so good.

Condo kitchens in Metrotown and Brentwood towers

Burnaby's tower neighbourhoods bring a different kind of project: compact kitchens where every centimetre counts. In Metrotown and Brentwood we build full-height cabinetry to the ceiling, integrate panel-ready appliances so the fridge and dishwasher disappear, and use drawers instead of doors in base cabinets to make small footprints work harder. We also manage the strata process end to end, from the renovation application and insurance certificates to elevator bookings and approved working hours. Suite plumbing and electrical changes get City of Burnaby permits. Owners are often surprised how much storage and counter space a well-planned small kitchen can hold.

Kitchen renovation pricing and process in Burnaby

Burnaby kitchen renovations with us typically run $25,000 to $80,000 and up. A tower condo refresh with new cabinets, quartz and backsplash sits toward the lower half. A rancher open-concept conversion with structural work, an island, relocated plumbing and full electrical upgrades sits higher. Our process is the same either way: a free site visit anywhere from Edmonds to Burnaby Heights, an itemized written quote, a design and materials phase, permits, then construction with one point of contact. Because we are based in Surrey, fifteen minutes down the highway, our crews are in Burnaby almost every week.

FAQ

Kitchen Renovations Questions in Burnaby

Is the wall between my Burnaby rancher's kitchen and living room load bearing?

In most 1960s Burnaby ranchers it is, because that wall often carries the roof or ceiling joists. That does not mean it cannot come down. We arrange the structural review, install a properly sized beam and pull the City of Burnaby permit.

Can you renovate a kitchen in an occupied Metrotown tower suite?

Yes, we do it regularly. We coordinate with your strata on hours, elevator bookings and protection of common areas, and we seal off the work zone with dust barriers. Most tower kitchen projects finish in four to six weeks.

Do Burnaby kitchen renovations need a permit?

Cosmetic swaps like new cabinet doors do not. Moving plumbing, adding circuits or removing walls does, and that covers most full renovations. We prepare and manage the City of Burnaby permit application as part of every project that needs one.

What do kitchen renovations cost in Burnaby?

Most projects land between $25,000 and $80,000 and up. Condo refreshes sit lower, structural open-concept conversions in Capitol Hill or Deer Lake homes sit higher. The free quote breaks the number down line by line.
