Kitchen Renovations in Toronto & Grey County
The kitchen is the heart of your home—where families gather, meals are prepared, and memories are created. Odin Agnuk has spent over two decades creating stunning, functional kitchens throughout Toronto and Grey County, combining innovative design, quality craftsmanship, and meticulous attention to detail.
Whether you're updating a cramped row house kitchen in Toronto, creating a gourmet space in High Park, or designing a modern kitchen for your Blue Mountains home, our comprehensive renovation services deliver results that exceed expectations. We don't just change how your kitchen looks—we improve how it works for your lifestyle.
Why Kitchen Renovations Matter
Enhanced Functionality
Modern kitchens work smarter. We optimize workflow, incorporate sufficient counter space, add specialized storage solutions, and create dedicated zones for cooking, prep, and cleanup.
Increased Home Value
Kitchen renovations consistently deliver strong ROI. Updated kitchens significantly impact home sale prices and time-on-market in Toronto's competitive real estate market.
Improved Energy Efficiency
Upgrade to ENERGY STAR appliances, install LED lighting, add proper task lighting, and improve ventilation—reducing utility costs while improving comfort.
Better Safety
Older kitchens often have outdated electrical systems, inadequate GFCI protection, poor lighting, and inefficient ventilation. Renovation addresses these safety concerns comprehensively.
Our Kitchen Renovation Process
1. Design Consultation (1-2 weeks)
We discuss your cooking style, storage needs, aesthetic preferences, budget, and timeline. We measure meticulously and photograph existing conditions.
2. Design Development (3-5 weeks)
We create comprehensive plans including layout optimization, custom cabinetry design, countertop and backsplash selections, appliance placement, and lighting design. 3D renderings help visualize the finished space.
3. Selections & Finalization (2 weeks)
Finalize cabinet styles, countertop materials, tile patterns, flooring, paint colors, fixtures, and appliances. We provide detailed pricing breaking down all costs.
4. Renovation (4-6 weeks)
Demolition, electrical and plumbing updates, cabinet installation, countertop fabrication, backsplash tile, flooring, lighting, and appliance installation. We protect adjacent areas and maintain clear communication throughout.

Toronto-Specific Expertise
Row House Kitchens
Narrow footprints, limited natural light, load-bearing wall constraints. We excel at galley layouts, reflective surfaces, strategic windows, and vertical storage maximizing tight urban spaces.
Condo Kitchens
Building rules, working hours restrictions, compact appliances, electrical limitations, ventilation constraints. We navigate condo regulations while creating beautiful, functional kitchens.
Investment & Timeline
Timeline: 3-4 months total (3-6 weeks design/planning, 4-6 weeks construction)
During Construction: Kitchen will be out of service 4-6 weeks. We recommend setting up a temporary kitchen elsewhere and planning accordingly.
