Frequently Asked Questions

What does a kitchen renovation cost?

Kitchen renovations with High Five Kitchens start at $28,000, including design, procurement, project management, and full installation. Final cost depends on your space, finish selections, and scope of work. We'll talk through your budget early on, so we can shape a plan that works for you.

What does a bathroom renovation cost?

Bathroom renovations start at $10,000. As with kitchens, final cost depends on the size of the space, any structural work, and your finish selections. If a full renovation isn't the right fit yet, refinishing or refacing what's already there is often a very effective way to refresh the space for less.

Do you only do full renovations?

Not at all. If your cabinets are in good structural shape, refinishing or refacing them can make a dramatic difference at a fraction of the cost. We'll give you an honest assessment of what delivers the best result for your budget.

What is your process?

Every project follows three phases: design and planning, procurement and coordination, and installation. Lucy manages every stage personally, from the first conversation through the final walkthrough. See the full breakdown on our Process page.

Do you work with IKEA cabinetry?

Yes, and deliberately so, though it's not the only option. IKEA's SEKTION cabinet system is one of the most rigorously tested and durable modular systems available, and we often use it as a structural foundation, layered with custom doors, hardware, and surfaces for a result that looks and feels fully custom. We also work with custom millwork, other cabinetry lines, and local cabinetry makers, depending on what's right for your space and budget. Either way, it's how we deliver premium outcomes at accessible prices.

Who actually runs my project?

Lucy does. Every project is personally managed by Lucy Hermiston, PMP, from initial design through installation. You'll always know who to call and what's happening next.

What trades do you work with?

We work with a trusted network of licensed, insured, and WorkSafeBC-compliant tradespeople across plumbing, electrical, tile, and carpentry. Every crew member we bring into your home meets the same standard we hold ourselves to.

How long does a renovation take?

Timelines vary by scope. A bathroom renovation typically takes one to three weeks of active installation. A full kitchen renovation typically runs three to four weeks. We'll give you a realistic timeline during planning and keep you informed throughout.
