Before: homeowner goals & pain points

• Flow & light. Enclosed kitchen/dining cut off light and traffic.
• Aging bathroom. Moisture risk, underpowered ventilation, slippery tile.
• Insufficient storage. Entry and bedrooms lacked integrated cabinetry.
• Maintenance & energy. Old finishes and lighting increased upkeep.

Design goals & final layout

1. Open kitchen–dining with peninsula/island to unite prep and social zones.
2. Primary bath upgrade with walk-in shower (10 mm glass), reinforced waterproofing, wall niche, and drawer-based vanity.
3. Layered lighting: general + task + under-cabinet, high CRI, dimmable.
4. Systemised storage: full-height built-ins from entry to bedrooms.
5. Easy-care materials: durable wood floors/porcelain tile, quartz tops, scrubbable paint.

Materials & specifications

Kitchen

• Cabinetry: durable laminate fronts, soft-close hardware, drawer dividers.
• Countertop: 1 ¼” quartz with undermount stainless steel sink.
• Backsplash: large-format porcelain with tight grout lines.
• Appliances: energy-efficient range, wall oven, dishwasher.
• Lighting: linear fixtures + under-cabinet task lights (3000–3500 K).

Bathroom

• Waterproofing: cement board + liquid membrane (reinforced corners), floor slope ≥ 1/4″ per ft.
• Shower: walk-in, 2×2 anti-slip mosaic floor, 10 mm tempered glass.
• Vanity: 48″ floating, quartz top with undermount sink; LED mirror.
• Fixtures: thermostatic shower set, low-noise fan with humidity sensor, comfort-height toilet.

Flooring

Process & timeline

Week 1 – Finalise plan & ordering
Site verification, wall checks, cabinet/counter/tile/lighting schedule, transparent quote and Gantt.

Week 2 – Demolition & rough-ins / waterproofing
Selective non-structural openings (if applicable), water/electrical relocations, primary bath slope and waterproofing layers.

Week 3 – Tiling & cabinet install
Wet-area tiling and grout; kitchen cabinetry and hardware; verify linear/task lighting and outlets.

Weeks 4–6 – Finishes & handover
Quartz and sink, plumbing trim, shower glass; whole-home paint, flooring, hardware alignment; deep clean and client handover.
Total on-site time: ~1.5 months (glass/counter lead times may affect).

After: three photo slots

Kitchen — Open plan with island

Living — Warm wood floors & layered lighting

Bathroom — Walk-in shower & quartz vanity

Challenges & solutions

• Low daylight. Partial non-structural opening + high-reflectance finishes; glare-free task lighting.
• Wet-area reliability. Reinforced corners/niche; shorter rigid ducting improves fan performance and lowers noise.
• Storage planning. Full-height built-ins unify elevations and hide clutter along the entry-to-bedroom path.

Permits & compliance (high-level)

• Electrical: new/modified circuits and fan wiring require ESA notification/inspection.
• Venting: exterior termination clearances per Ontario Building Code and municipal by-laws.
• Structure: this project is non-structural; any structural changes require engineering and permits.

We coordinate paperwork and inspections to keep delivery on schedule.

Investment range (guide only)

For a 2,000 sq ft full-home refresh (kitchen upgrade + primary bath, no structural changes), typical budgets range $65k–$120k + HST, depending on cabinetry, stone, bath fixtures, and appliances.

Care & maintenance

• Wipe counters/glass daily; keep the bath fan running 20–30 minutes post-shower.
• Dust and spot-repair wood floors; inspect silicone and seals annually.
• Lubricate cabinet hinges/slides every 6 months to extend life.
