Kitchen Renovation Costs in Hamilton
Kitchen renovation costs in Hamilton vary depending on the size of the space, the scope of work, and the materials selected. Here’s a general overview of what affects your investment:
Kitchen Size
A small galley kitchen and a large open-concept kitchen are fundamentally different projects. More square footage means more cabinetry, more countertop material, more flooring, and more labor.
Cabinet Choice
Cabinets are typically the single largest cost in a kitchen renovation. Stock cabinets are the most affordable, semi-custom options offer more flexibility, and fully custom cabinetry gives you complete control over design and dimensions.
Countertop Material
Laminate is the budget-friendly option, while quartz, granite, and quartzite sit at the higher end. The material you choose affects both cost and long-term durability.
Layout Changes
If your renovation involves moving plumbing, relocating the kitchen island, or opening up walls, costs increase due to structural and trade work. Cosmetic renovations that keep the existing layout are generally more cost-effective.
Appliances and Fixtures
Upgrading to integrated or high-end appliances, statement lighting, and designer faucets adds to the overall budget but significantly elevates the finished look and function of the space.
As a general benchmark, kitchen renovations in Hamilton typically range from $25,000 for a focused refresh to $75,000 or more for a full custom transformation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Hamilton, ON?
Kitchen renovation costs in Hamilton typically range from $25,000 to $75,000 or more, depending on the size of the kitchen, the materials chosen, and whether the layout is changing. A cosmetic refresh with new cabinet doors, countertops, and fixtures will cost less than a full gut renovation with custom cabinetry and structural changes. We provide detailed, itemized quotes so you know exactly where your budget is going before work begins.
How long does a kitchen renovation take?
Most kitchen renovations with Ambrosio take between 4 and 10 weeks from the start of construction, depending on the scope of work. Larger projects involving layout changes, custom cabinetry, or structural work take longer than straightforward cosmetic updates. We provide a clear project timeline before work starts and keep you updated throughout.
Do I need permits for a kitchen renovation in Hamilton?
It depends on the scope of the work. Cosmetic updates like replacing cabinets, countertops, or flooring generally do not require a permit. However, if your renovation involves moving plumbing, updating electrical panels or circuits, or making structural changes such as removing a wall, you will need permits from the City of Hamilton. Our team handles permit coordination as part of the renovation process.
What's included in a full kitchen renovation?
A full kitchen renovation typically includes demolition of existing finishes, new cabinet design and installation, countertop fabrication and installation, updated plumbing fixtures, electrical work (lighting, outlets, hood fan), new flooring, backsplash installation, and appliance placement. We offer all of these services in-house, so you work with one team from start to finish.
Can you renovate a kitchen without replacing cabinets?
Yes, if your cabinet boxes are in good structural condition, there are cost-effective options such as refacing the doors and drawer fronts, applying new finishes, or adding new hardware. This approach can significantly refresh your kitchen’s look at a lower cost than a full cabinet replacement. We’ll assess your existing cabinets during the consultation and recommend the approach that best aligns with your goals and budget.
