Total Renovations is the Best Home Remodeling Company Vancouver homeowners trust — delivering Home Renovation Company Vancouver BC. A leading home renovation comp that Vancouver homeowners choose for company in Vancouver BC, delivering complete kitchen renovation services across Vancouver Township, City of Vancouver, Willoughby Heights, Walnut Grove, Aldergrove, Fort Vancouver, and surrounding Fraser Valley communities since 2011. As your Vancouver kitchen renovation contractor, we manage every aspect of the project — design, demolition, framing, plumbing, electrical, tile, cabinetry, countertops, and all permits — under one fixed price with one dedicated project manager.

Vancouver's housing market creates exceptional home remodeling opportunities across every service category. The municipality's large-footprint suburban homes — many built between the 1990s and 2010s in Willoughby Heights, Walnut Grove, and Brookswood — feature generous footprints that make kitchen renovations, basement finishing, and home additions financially compelling. Older homes in Aldergrove, the City of Vancouver, and Fort Vancouver present the highest open-concept kitchen conversion and bathroom renovation ROI in the municipality. Vancouver's dual-jurisdiction structure — Vancouver Township and City of Vancouver operating under separate permit regimes — creates complexity that only experienced local home remodeling contractors can navigate efficiently. Total Renovations has managed permits with both jurisdictions for 15 years.

Whether you need a targeted kitchen or bathroom renovation, a character home renovation that respects Vancouver's architectural heritage, a Custom Home Renovation Vancouver that transforms your property from the inside out, or a complete Whole House Remodeling Vancouver that addresses every room — Total Renovations delivers the same fixed-price accountability and licensed trade quality on every project. We are the home renovation company Vancouver homeowners call when they want every renovation done right, done on time, and done at the price quoted.

Modern kitchen design is included at no additional cost in every Total Renovations kitchen remodeling project in Vancouver.
basement renovations
Character Home & Strata Renovation Vancouver
Open-concept kitchen conversions are the most transformative kitchen renovation available to Vancouver homeowners — and the most frequently requested service in Vancouver's family home market. Total Renovations assesses the structural implications of wall removal, installs load-bearing beams or headers where required, manages all permits with Vancouver Township or City of Vancouver, and delivers a seamless open-plan kitchen-dining-living space that fundamentally changes how your Vancouver home feels and functions. Structural work is managed with full engineering documentation where required.
home additions
Home Additions Vancouver BC
New kitchen cabinet installation is the single most visually impactful component of any kitchen renovation in Vancouver. Total Renovations supplies and installs semi-custom and full custom cabinetry from leading Canadian manufacturers — floor-to-ceiling configurations, soft-close hardware, custom pull-out drawers, integrated waste management, and finished end panels. Cabinet selection includes in-home consultations with physical door samples, finish options, and hardware pairings reviewed in your Vancouver kitchen's specific light. Every kitchen cabinet installation in Vancouver is completed under a fixed price with all permits managed by your renovation contractor.
kitchen countertop installation
Kitchen Countertop Installation Vancouver
Exterior remodeling in Vancouver operates in the context of 1,153mm of annual rainfall — the highest precipitation level in Metro Vancouver — and a heritage and character home landscape that imposes specific exterior material requirements. Siding replacement, window upgrades, exterior painting, and roofing coordination in Vancouver require weather-resistant material specifications appropriate for this rainfall level. Character home exterior renovations must navigate City of Vancouver's character home retention guidelines. Total Renovations provides exterior renovation across Vancouver under fixed-price contracts with all City of Vancouver permits managed.
decks patio construction
Decks & Patio Construction Vancouver BC
Custom deck and patio construction extends Vancouver's outdoor living season — particularly valuable in East Vancouver and Kitsilano where outdoor space is at a premium. Total Renovations builds custom decks and patios in composite (Trex, Fiberon) and natural cedar across all Vancouver neighbourhoods, managing all City of Vancouver building permits. Covered decks, multi-level systems, and integrated outdoor kitchen rough-ins are available under fixed-price contracts. Vancouver's rainfall requires covered deck designs that deliver year-round usability.
flooring
Flooring Vancouver BC
Modern kitchen design in Vancouver requires a lighting plan that works across three distinct functions: ambient task lighting for meal preparation, accent lighting for aesthetic enhancement, and feature lighting for the island and dining area. Total Renovations installs pot light grids on dimmer circuits, under-cabinet LED strips, pendant lighting over islands, and feature fixtures over dining areas — all coordinated through a licensed electrician with a BC Safety Authority permit. Panel upgrades are managed concurrently with kitchen renovations where the new electrical load requires additional capacity in your Vancouver home.
whole home renovation
Whole House Remodeling Vancouver
Kitchen plumbing upgrades — new sink installation, faucet replacement, dishwasher rough-in, filtered water tap installation, and pot filler additions — are managed by Total Renovations' licensed plumber and included under the kitchen renovation fixed price. Moving the kitchen sink is one of the most frequently requested kitchen layout changes in Vancouver's renovation market, as Vancouver homeowners reconfigure kitchens to face into open-plan living spaces. Total Renovations manages all required plumbing permits through Vancouver Township and the BC Safety Authority, coordinated with the building permit process to prevent sequential delays.
custom home remodeling

Custom Home Renovation Vancouver for homeowners who want exceptional results — premium materials, superior craftsmanship, and outcomes that reflect the character of Vancouver's finest properties.

How Your Vancouver Home Renovation Works

divider

1.
Free In-Home Consultation
We visit your Vancouver home within 5 business days, assess every renovation scope and your property's heritage or character designation status, discuss your goals, lifestyle needs, and budget, and provide honest guidance calibrated to your Vancouver neighbourhood's specific renovation context. No sales pressure. No obligation.

Within 48 hours of the site visit, we deliver comprehensive written home renovation quotes covering every line item — demolition, framing, plumbing, electrical, cabinetry, tile, flooring, fixtures, and all City of Vancouver permits including any heritage or character approvals. The number we quote is the number you pay — guaranteed.
3.

We submit all permit applications to Vancouver Township or City of Vancouver, schedule all inspections, and coordinate every subtrade — framer, plumber, electrician, tile setter, cabinet installer — under one project manager so nothing falls between the cracks during your Vancouver kitchen renovation.

Your kitchen renovation is completed to specification and schedule. We walk through the finished space with you, address any deficiencies immediately, obtain final inspection sign-off from Vancouver Township or City of Vancouver, and hand over your completed Vancouver kitchen renovation.
Why Kitchen Renovation in Vancouver Is Different — Local Knowledge That Matters

Vancouver's kitchen renovation market reflects the municipality's remarkable residential diversity. Willoughby Heights' master-planned 2000s and 2010s homes feature large kitchen footprints — many exceeding 200 square feet — with island space, pantry configurations, and open-concept kitchen-to-family-room layouts that are already partially there and ready to be taken further. Walnut Grove's established 1990s suburban homes carry kitchens that were well-built for their era but have aged past the expectations of today's buyers and owners. Fort Vancouver's heritage properties require a kitchen renovation approach that respects architectural character. Aldergrove's older housing stock offers entry-level kitchen renovation ROI opportunities.

Kitchen renovation permits in Vancouver are managed through two distinct municipal departments — Vancouver Township's Building Department for properties within the Township's boundaries, and City of Vancouver's Development Services for properties within the City's incorporated limits. Total Renovations has worked with both jurisdictions for 15 years, understanding the specific inspection schedules, documentation requirements, and common hold points that affect kitchen renovation timelines in Vancouver. Knowing which municipal office to file with, which inspectors to call, and what the common code compliance requirements are for kitchen plumbing and electrical work in each jurisdiction prevents the delays that uninformed contractors routinely encounter.

Kitchen Renovation Permits in Vancouver — What You Need to Know
Kitchen renovations in Vancouver require building permits for structural changes, plumbing modifications, and electrical upgrades. Total Renovations manages the entire permit process — from initial application through final inspection sign-off — across both Vancouver Township and City of Vancouver.
Vancouver Township Building Permits
Structural changes, electrical upgrades, and plumbing modifications in kitchen renovations within Vancouver Township require building permits through the Township's Building Department. Total Renovations files all applications and coordinates all inspections on your behalf.
Electrical Permit & Panel Upgrades
Kitchen renovations in Vancouver typically require an electrical permit from the BC Safety Authority for new circuits, panel upgrades, and lighting installations. Our licensed electrician manages all electrical permits and inspections concurrently with the building permit process to prevent timeline delays.
Structural Changes & Engineering
Open-concept kitchen conversions in Vancouver that involve removing load-bearing walls require structural engineering documentation and a building permit. Total Renovations coordinates all required engineering assessments and permits for wall removal projects across Vancouver Township and City of Vancouver.
City of Vancouver Permits
Properties within the City of Vancouver's municipal boundary are permitted through the City's Development Services department — a separate process from Vancouver Township. Total Renovations manages both jurisdictions and knows which office governs your property's address.
Plumbing Permits
Moving, adding, or modifying kitchen plumbing — new sink locations, dishwasher rough-in, pot fillers, prep sink plumbing — requires a plumbing permit. Our licensed plumber manages all plumbing permit applications and inspections as part of the kitchen renovation fixed price.
Gas Line Work
Adding or modifying gas connections for ranges, cooktops, or gas fireplaces adjacent to kitchen renovations in Vancouver requires a gas permit through the BC Safety Authority. Our licensed gas fitter manages all gas permits and inspections as part of the kitchen renovation contract.
