What We Build

A kitchen renovation can mean different things depending on the home and the homeowner. At ScaleBig, we handle the full range, from refinishing and reconfiguration of an existing kitchen footprint, to complete gut renovations with new layouts, to structural openings that combine kitchen, dining, and living into a single open space.

Every project is design build. Our in house designer develops the layout, specifies finishes and fixtures, and produces photorealistic 3D renderings before construction begins. The same vetted trades work on every project. Design and construction work together to carry the approved layout, selections and practical details through the build.

Kitchens are the most used room in most homes. We plan kitchens for everyday use, with practical layouts, durable materials and attention to the work behind the finishes.

These are representative renovation experiences, not fixed price contracts or interchangeable component bundles. Existing pricing references elsewhere on this page relate to their stated qualifying scopes, not quotations for the scenarios above.

The Same Standard in Every Package

Every experience follows the same professional installation and applicable plumbing, electrical and ventilation standards.

Essential includes new standard cabinetry. Cabinet painting or refacing is not the representative Essential renovation.

Your Renovation, Professionally Scoped

Our packages illustrate different renovation experiences and representative project scopes. Every property is unique, so your final quotation is tailored to your layout, existing conditions, selected finishes and construction requirements.

We'll help you choose the right direction and develop a complete project scope around your goals.

Our Project Timeline Commitment

We believe homeowners deserve clarity about when their renovation will be completed.

Before construction begins, we'll provide an agreed project schedule with a target completion date. We'll keep you informed of progress, communicate clearly and manage the work toward the agreed timeline.

Initial consultations and estimates are free. Separately contracted design, engineering, permit applications or advanced assessments are not automatically free and may require an additional agreement.

Our Approach

A successful kitchen renovation starts with a layout that supports how you cook, store and move through the space. Layout decisions made in the first two weeks determine whether the finished kitchen feels generous or cramped, whether storage is enough or short, whether the cook works against the space or with it. We spend real time on this phase, before any construction begins.

Our in house designer works with the homeowner to develop layout options, confirm cabinetry and storage requirements, select countertops, backsplash, hardware, lighting, and appliances, and produce photorealistic renderings. By the time construction starts, every material decision has been made. There are no showroom visits halfway through demolition.

On site, one project manager runs your job and is your single point of contact. The plumbers, electricians, tilers, and finishers on your project are the same trades on every ScaleBig project, working to a known standard. Inspections are coordinated when required, and any structural work is built from engineered drawings.

What's Included

A complete kitchen renovation at ScaleBig typically includes the following scope. Specific inclusions vary by the size of the project and the homeowner's selections.

01

Site Assessment & Feasibility

Site visit to measure the existing space, review structural and mechanical conditions, and discuss the scope and direction.

02

Design & 3D Renderings

Layout development, finish and fixture selection, and photorealistic renderings produced by our in house designer before construction begins.

07

Insulation & Drywall

Insulation where opened up, vapour barrier, drywall, taping, mudding, sanding, and priming.

08

Cabinetry

Custom or semi custom cabinetry, supplied through our trusted suppliers and installed to a level standard with proper shimming, levelling, and panel matching.

09

Countertops

Quartz, granite, or other selected surface, templated and installed with seamed joints where unavoidable.

Selections and Purchasing

You approve the finishes. We coordinate ordering and delivery, with material availability and lead times considered before construction starts.

Our in house designer prepares a selection sheet with cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, flooring, fixtures, lighting and appliances, priced within the allowances in your proposal. You sign off on each item.

Cabinetry has the longest lead time, so it is ordered first, as soon as your selections are approved.

Selections are locked by a date in your schedule. Late changes move the schedule and are priced in writing.

Anything above an allowance is quoted in writing before we order it. You never see a surprise on the final invoice.

After you sign, you approve your final selections and pay for finish materials and appliances, so everything is ordered before demolition starts.

What Determines the Cost

Kitchen renovations at ScaleBig typically range from $45,000 to $120,000 or more. The number depends much less on kitchen size than on the scope of the work and the finish level selected. The factors below are what move the budget within and beyond that range.

01

Scope of the Project

A refinish and replace project (new cabinets, countertops, appliances within the same footprint) is meaningfully different from a gut renovation with new layout, mechanical relocations, and updated flooring throughout. Larger scopes don't just cost more. They involve more trades and more coordination.

02

Structural Work

Removing a load bearing wall to open the kitchen to dining or living spaces requires engineered drawings, a structural beam, permits, and coordination. This is often what transforms a kitchen renovation into a main floor renovation.

03

Cabinetry Level

Cabinet pricing varies widely, from quality semi custom lines to fully custom millwork. This is typically the single largest line item in a kitchen project, and the difference between tiers is real.

04

Countertop Material

Quartz at different price points, granite, dolomite, and natural stone all carry different costs. Edge profile, thickness, and seam strategy also affect the number.

05

Appliance Package

Mid range appliance packages versus high end European or integrated panel ready appliances can vary by tens of thousands of dollars. We work with whichever direction the homeowner chooses.

06

Mechanical & Electrical Updates

Older homes often need plumbing reroutes, gas line work, electrical panel upgrades, or HVAC adjustments to support a new layout. These are essential investments that sit behind the finished kitchen.

07

Flooring Strategy

Whether new flooring is installed only in the kitchen or extended through adjacent spaces (the more common premium choice) significantly changes square footage and budget.

A specific budget for your project is developed during the site assessment, after we've reviewed the conditions and discussed the scope you're looking for.

The Process

Every kitchen project at ScaleBig follows the same sequence. These are typical timelines. Your proposal sets out the milestones and schedule for your project.

  1. 01

    Free Consultation

    We discuss your project, review the preliminary scope and budget, and arrange an initial site visit where appropriate, to measure the existing kitchen and review structural and mechanical conditions. You get an honest read on what's feasible and what direction makes sense. The initial consultation and estimate are free.

  2. 02

    Design & Renderings

    Our in house designer develops layout options, confirms cabinetry and storage requirements, and produces photorealistic 3D renderings. Finish and fixture selections are finalized before construction begins.

  3. 03

    Drawings & Permits Where Required

    Architectural drawings, engineered drawings for structural work, and permit applications when applicable. Many kitchen projects do not require permits; structural work always does.

  4. 04

    Proposal & Agreement

    A fixed price proposal with the scope set out by category, allowances, milestones and a dated schedule, plus the payment schedule and exclusions. Once signed, the project is scheduled.

  5. 05

    Selections Locked

    You approve the final selection sheet and pay for finish materials and appliances. Cabinetry is ordered first, and everything is scheduled to arrive before it is needed.

  6. 06

    Construction

    Demolition, rough ins, inspections where required, drywall, cabinetry, countertops, tile, finishing and appliance integration, sequenced to keep household disruption to a minimum.

  7. 07

    Final Walkthrough & Handover

    Punch list, appliance commissioning, final cleaning, and handover of all manuals, warranties, and any permit documentation.

Typical timelines: 3 to 6 weeks for design and permits where required, then 6 to 12 weeks of active construction depending on scope.

Where We Don't Compromise

Some elements of a kitchen renovation are easy to cut corners on. We don't.

01

Cabinetry Installation

Cabinets are installed level, plumb, and properly shimmed, with panels matched and reveals consistent. Poor installation undermines even the best cabinetry, and we treat this work as the foundation of the finished kitchen.

02

Countertop Templating

Templating is done in person, by hand, after cabinets are installed. We do not template from drawings or assumptions. This is where most counter installation problems originate, and getting it right matters.

03

Mechanical Work Behind the Walls

Plumbing, gas, electrical, and HVAC rough ins are done to current code, by the same trades on every project. We don't hide work that wouldn't pass inspection.

04

Tile Layout

Backsplash and feature tile layout is reviewed in person before installation begins. Centerlines, cuts, and edge details are planned, not improvised on the wall.

05

Trades Accountability

Same trades on every project. Work that doesn't meet our standard gets corrected before the next phase begins.

The Design Process with Our In House Designer

What separates a design build kitchen from a contractor installation is the design phase. With our in house designer, design is not a quick layout sketch handed off to construction. It is a deliberate process that shapes everything that follows.

01

Understanding How You Cook and Live

Before drawing anything, our in house designer works to understand how the household actually uses the kitchen: who cooks, how much, whether the space hosts, what storage shortcomings exist today, and what the homeowner has wanted to change for years. The design responds to these answers.

02

Layout Development

Multiple layouts are developed and compared. Trade offs are discussed openly: more counter versus more storage, larger island versus better flow, range placement versus sink placement. The right answer depends on the homeowner; the process surfaces it.

03

Cabinetry Specification

Cabinet style, door profile, drawer configuration, interior storage solutions, and panel details are specified at the design stage, not selected from a showroom catalog mid build.

04

Finish & Fixture Selection

Countertop, backsplash, flooring, hardware, faucet, sink, lighting, and paint colours are selected in coordination so the result reads as one cohesive space, not a collection of individually chosen items.

05

Photorealistic 3D Renderings

The final design is rendered in photorealistic 3D from multiple angles. The homeowner sees the finished kitchen in detail before construction begins, with the ability to adjust before any work starts.

06

Documentation for Construction

The design package becomes the construction reference: layout drawings, elevation drawings, specifications and renderings. Trades work from a complete plan, not a sketch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most kitchens take 6 to 12 weeks of construction, after 3 to 6 weeks of design and any permits. You receive a dated schedule when you sign, and a written update every Friday.

Many kitchen projects do not. Removing or changing a load bearing wall, or major plumbing, gas or electrical changes, usually do. We confirm this at the site assessment and handle the application and inspections.

Usually, yes. You will be without a working kitchen during construction, so most families set up a temporary kitchen elsewhere in the house. We protect the floors and clean the site every day.

We supply it. Cabinetry is specified during design, approved by you on a signed selection sheet, and ordered through our suppliers. We purchase, track and deliver everything.

Yes. If the wall is load bearing, we work from stamped drawings by a licensed engineer, install the beam and handle the permit. Learn more about load bearing wall removal

Semi custom cabinets come in set sizes with a wide range of styles and finishes. Fully custom cabinetry is built to your exact dimensions and details. Custom costs more and takes longer to produce, and we help you decide where it is worth it.

Not always. If your appliances fit the new layout and are in good condition, we can reinstall them. New appliances are chosen during design so the cabinetry is built around their exact dimensions.
