Common Questions

In Montreal, a renovation permit for a strictly residential building typically costs $9.80 per $1,000 of the project value, with a minimum fee of approximately $164.20.

Montreal's older housing stock often requires electrical panel upgrades ($2,500–$4,500) or asbestos remediation ($3,000+) if original plaster or flooring is disturbed during demolition.

Due to skilled labor shortages in Quebec, most reputable contractors are booked 4 to 8 months in advance. Homeowners are advised to lock in pricing early to avoid the projected 10-14% annual cost increases.

A standard 10x10 condo kitchen with IKEA cabinets typically costs $6,000–$8,000 for materials, whereas local custom cabinetry starts at $15,000 and can exceed $40,000 for premium hardwoods.
