What makes a Niagara kitchen work

Ideas from the Niagara kitchen above that work in most homes here.

A pantry wall instead of more uppers

Tall cabinets on one wall hold more than a run of uppers and keep the rest of the kitchen open.

A microwave in the island

A microwave drawer or shelf in the end of the island frees counter space and keeps it at a safe height.

Glass-front uppers

A few glass doors near the ceiling break up a white wall of cabinets and show off what you want seen.

Seating on the island

Room for two or three stools turns the island into the place everyone sits.

One floor through the room

New plank laid before the cabinets, so it runs under them and meets the next room cleanly.

Pot lights on dimmers

Even light over every counter, dimmable in the evening, with pendants over the island if you want them.

Renovating a kitchen in Niagara
Permits

Same-layout cabinets and counters usually need no permit. Taking down a wall, moving plumbing or adding a window needs a permit from your town: Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, Welland, Lincoln or Niagara-on-the-Lake. We apply and book inspections.

Gas and electrical

A licensed gas fitter moves gas lines, and new circuits for an island or appliances are filed with the Electrical Safety Authority. We coordinate both.

Older Niagara homes

Postwar homes often have closed kitchens and floors that have settled. We check the floor and walls before the cabinets are ordered, so everything sits level.

Newer homes

Newer subdivisions have good layouts with builder cabinets. A pantry wall, an island and quartz are usually all a newer kitchen needs.

Questions

Niagara kitchen renovation FAQ

Do you renovate kitchens in Niagara?

Yes. We have built kitchens in Niagara and Beamsville, and we work across Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Welland, Lincoln and Grimsby from our Burlington office.

How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Niagara?

The table above shows our ranges by cabinet type and kitchen size, before HST, and Niagara is priced the same as Burlington. Adding a second room in the same job, such as a basement bedroom or a laundry, adds to the total but costs less than doing it later.

Is there a travel charge for Niagara?

No. Niagara is priced the same as Burlington, and the quote includes the drive.

Can you add an island to my kitchen?

Usually. We check the clearances around it, and whether a sink or outlets in the island mean moving plumbing or power.

Is a pantry wall better than upper cabinets?

In many kitchens, yes. Tall pantry cabinets hold more and leave the rest of the room open. The Niagara kitchen above has one.

Who issues kitchen permits in Niagara?

Your town: Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, Welland, Lincoln or Niagara-on-the-Lake. You only need one for walls, plumbing moves or new windows.

How long will my kitchen take?

Two to three weeks on site for most kitchens, after about a week of design.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes. Four years on our workmanship, plus the manufacturers' warranties on cabinets, counters and appliances.
