Common Questions

In 2026, a mid-range kitchen remodel in Kelowna typically falls between $35,000 and $65,000, covering new semi-custom cabinets, quartz countertops, and updated appliances without major structural changes.

High-end renovations in Kelowna often exceed $100,000, with some premium projects reaching $120,000 or more when including custom millwork, structural wall removals, and professional-grade appliance packages.

Homeowners should plan for $200 to $450 per square foot. The lower end reflects cosmetic refreshes, while the higher end accounts for full gut renovations with premium materials.

Permits for plumbing, electrical, and structural work are required by the City of Kelowna and typically range from $500 to $1,500 depending on the project value and complexity.

Costs have risen by approximately 4-6% annually due to skilled labor shortages in the BC interior and 2025-2026 tariffs on imported cabinetry and steel products.
