Client Reviews ## What Ajax Homeowners Say About Their Kitchen Renovation 4.9 / 5 · 120+ reviews on Google & HomeStars starstarstarstarstar > “Central West Ajax 1994 detached, kitchen closed off from the family room with a peninsula that blocked everything. Removed it, installed a beam I didn't know was needed, ceiling-height custom kitchen, Caesarstone island. Town of Ajax permit handled start to finish. Fixed price matched the contract to the dollar.” starstarstarstarstar > “Northeast Ajax 2008 executive home, large kitchen that needed a real custom build. NKBA designer caught that the original island position blocked the patio door. New layout, Cambria quartz waterfall island, BLUM LEGRABOX throughout. Three days early on the schedule.” starstarstarstarstar > “Riverside Ajax 1988 detached, kitchen with the sink facing the wrong wall. They relocated the plumbing to face the backyard, rebuilt the kitchen as a U-shape with a small island, and matched the cabinet finish to the dining room millwork. Durham Region permit was in their hands the whole way.” Local expertise ## Our Kitchen Renovation Expertise in Ajax Ajax permits are filed through the Town of Ajax Building Services under Durham Region. The Town of Ajax's building department on Station Street handles all residential structural permit applications, with review timelines typically running 4-6 weeks for kitchen renovation scope. Ajax's housing stock is almost entirely post-1980 suburban detached and semi-detached, with the majority of the inventory built between 1990 and 2015. **Central West Ajax** and **South Ajax** along the lake have the town's older stock - 1980s-90s builds where builder kitchens have been in place for 25-35 years and are ready for full replacement. **Northeast Ajax** and **Northwest Ajax** have newer executive detached homes where clients specify premium finishes: **Caesarstone** or **Cambria** quartz, ceiling-height custom cabinetry, and proper islands. The **Riverside** area along Lake Ontario has some of Ajax's most desirable homes - larger lots, older stock, and lakefront views that owners want the kitchen to take advantage of. We regularly see requests to reposition the sink to face the backyard or lake, which involves new plumbing rough-in and a permit. The most common Ajax project we quote: the 1990s-2000s detached with a peninsula that closes off the kitchen from the family room. Remove the peninsula (usually non-load-bearing), install a flush beam where needed, extend cabinetry to ceiling height, replace laminate countertops with **Silestone** or **Caesarstone** quartz, add a proper island with **BLUM Movento** soft-close drawers, and bring the lighting up with **Lutron**\-controlled LED pot lights. This transformation runs $30,000–$50,000 in Ajax's mid-range detached market and takes 12–16 weeks start to finish.

All projects are quoted on a fixed-price contract. ### Do you handle Town of Ajax permits? add Yes. We file directly with the Town of Ajax Building Services for structural work - wall removal, plumbing relocation, and load-bearing changes. We manage the application, drawings, and inspector coordination on your behalf. ### Can you remove the peninsula in an Ajax detached home? add Yes - this is our most common Ajax project. In post-1990 Ajax builds, the kitchen-to-family-room wall or peninsula is usually non-load-bearing and comes out cleanly. For load-bearing situations, we install a flush LVL beam that keeps the ceiling line continuous. We determine the wall type at the in-home consultation. ### How long does a full kitchen renovation take in Ajax? add 12–16 weeks from signed contract to completion: 6–8 weeks for permit review and cabinet fabrication, then 4–7 weeks on-site. We provide a project schedule at contract signing. ### What countertops do you install in Ajax? add We install Caesarstone, Silestone, and Cambria quartz (most popular in Ajax's detached market), Dekton ultra-compact for high-use surfaces, granite, and marble. All sourced through licensed trade accounts. ### Do you renovate the older 1980s homes in South Ajax and Central West? add Yes. South Ajax and Central West homes from the 1980s-90s are among our most common Durham Region projects. These kitchens often need full structural scope - plumbing relocation, load-bearing wall assessment, and electrical upgrades - that newer Ajax builds don't require. We assess all of this at the in-home consultation. ### Do you handle electrical and plumbing? add Yes. Licensed electricians and plumbers are coordinated under our single fixed-price contract. Electrical covers appliance circuits, LED pot lights, and under-cabinet lighting. Plumbing covers sink relocation, dishwasher rough-in, and fridge water lines. ### What cabinet hardware do you use? add Standard across all Ajax builds is BLUM Movento soft-close drawer runners and Hettich concealed hinges. Northeast Ajax executive projects often specify BLUM LEGRABOX systems. ### How quickly can your team reach Ajax? add Ajax is accessible in 40-50 minutes via Highway 401. Free in-home consultations are available within 1-2 weeks across all Ajax neighbourhoods. ### How do I know the price won't change? add Fixed-price contracts. The signed number is what you pay. Change orders only arise for scope changes you request after signing, and those are quoted in writing before we proceed. ### What Ajax neighbourhoods do you serve? add We serve all of Ajax: Central West, South Ajax, Northeast Ajax, Riverside, Northwest Ajax, Central East Ajax, Pickering Village, and Harwood - all accessible via Highway 401 and Highway 407. ### Do you offer financing? add Yes. Renovation financing partners offer 12–60 month terms. We provide the project quote and you apply directly with the lender.
