💬What People Actually Paid
Community❓Common Questions
In the City of Victoria, building permit fees are based on construction value, typically costing approximately $10 to $12 per $1,000 of project value. For a $60,000 renovation, expect to pay between $700 and $900 including administrative fees.
Due to ferry freight costs, materials in Victoria typically carry a 5% to 10% premium compared to Vancouver or Calgary. This is most noticeable in heavy items like stone countertops and large appliance deliveries.
Skilled trades in the Capital Regional District (CRD) currently bill between $85 and $130 per hour, while general laborers range from $45 to $60 per hour.
Due to current labor availability in BC, a standard mid-range renovation takes 8 to 12 weeks from demolition to final inspection, though custom cabinetry lead times can extend this by 4 to 6 weeks.
