Kitchen Renovation in Markham
A written, itemised quote before any work starts, and one team you can reach from the first day of demolition to the final coat of paint.
You have a plan and a budget. You want both respected.
Maybe you have lived with the same cabinets since you bought your place near Main Street Unionville, and the layout no longer fits how your family cooks. Maybe you are in a newer Cornell home and want the kitchen to match the rest of the house. Either way, the worry is the same. You have heard the stories of a quote that doubled halfway through, or a crew that vanished for two weeks with the sink torn out.
That is the part we put in writing. Before any demolition, you get an itemised quote that lists the cabinets, the counters, the labour, and the cost to move plumbing or electrical if your new layout calls for it. When something changes, you approve it in writing first. No surprise line items at the end.
One team that owns the whole kitchen
A kitchen pulls together more trades than almost any room. Cabinets, countertops, plumbing for the sink and dishwasher, electrical for the range and lighting, flooring, tile, and paint. When those are five separate phone numbers, the gaps between them become your problem.
With ArchCap, they are one accountable team. The person who walks your Markham Village kitchen on day one is the person you call when you have a question on day twenty. We sequence the work so the counter template is measured after the cabinets are set, and the backsplash goes on after the counters land. You always know who is in your home and what they are doing.
Built for how Markham homes are actually built
Kitchens here are not all the same. A century home in Markham Village can hide old wiring and uneven floors behind the drywall. A Cathedraltown or Cornell build is newer, but the original layout often boxes the kitchen off from the living space, and opening it up means checking what is load bearing first. We look at your real walls before we promise a layout, so the plan we hand you is one your house can actually hold.
We also keep your home livable. We seal off the work area, protect floors on the path in and out, and clean up at the end of each day so you are not stepping over tools to make coffee.
What to expect, start to finish
You walk us through what you want. We measure, talk through what is possible, and send a written quote. Once you approve it, we set a start date and a realistic timeline, and we tell you the days that will be loudest or dustiest so you can plan around them. Through the build, you get updates and a clear answer when you ask how things are tracking.
- Layout changes like moving the sink, island, or pantry
- Cabinets and countertops, supplied and installed
- Plumbing and electrical updates for your new layout
- Flooring, tile, and backsplash
- Full clean-up at the end of each day and at handover

Questions homeowners ask
How long does a kitchen renovation in Markham take?
Most kitchens run three to six weeks once work begins, depending on the size and how much the layout changes. Moving plumbing or a load-bearing wall adds time. We give you a realistic timeline with your written quote, and we tell you up front about the days that will be loudest or dustiest.
Can you tell me the cost before you start?
Yes. You get an itemised quote before any demolition, listing cabinets, counters, labour, and any plumbing or electrical changes. If something needs to change during the build, you approve the new cost in writing before we proceed. No surprise charges at the end.
Do you handle the plumbing and electrical, or do I hire those separately?
We handle them as part of the project. Moving a sink, adding a dishwasher line, or wiring new lighting and outlets for your range is part of the kitchen plan, all under one team. You have one number to call for the whole job.
Can you open up my kitchen by removing a wall?
Often, yes. First we check whether the wall is load bearing, which is common in Cornell and Cathedraltown builds where the kitchen is boxed in. If it carries weight, we plan the proper support before anything comes down. We look at your actual walls before we promise a layout.
Will I be able to use my home during the renovation?
Your kitchen will be out of use during the work, but we keep the rest of your home livable. We seal off the work area, protect the floors on the path in and out, and clean up at the end of each day so you are not stepping over tools.
Do you serve all of Markham?
Yes, including Unionville, Markham Village, Cornell, and Cathedraltown. We work across the city and plan around the way homes in each area are built, from older Markham Village houses to newer Cornell builds.
Do you handle design and permits?
Yes. We handle design, drawings and the permits your project needs, so you are not managing separate people for each step.
Will I get a fixed price before work starts?
You get a written, itemised quote before any work begins, with materials, labour and scope laid out, so there are no surprises at the end.
How long will a renovation take?
It depends on the scope, but we give you a realistic schedule with the quote and keep you posted as the work moves.
Do you clean up after the work?
We hand the space back done and clean, and our own cleaning crews can take it further if you want.
