Kitchen Renovations Calgary

Appliance installations include energy efficient induction or gas range (complete with ventilation system), a built-in microwave, dishwasher, and garbage disposal system. This kitchen would be complimented by a double-basin SILGRANITE undermount sink, a new luxury faucet, and custom under-cabinet as well as ceiling pot lighting. New Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring or Engineered Hardwood is installed, and walls, ceiling and trim in the kitchen and adjacent areas are all re-painted.

Luxury kitchen renovations would include features such as high-end appliances, fully-custom cabinetry with multiple accessories and custom-exotic wood species, luxury stone countertops including waterfall designs, instant hot or filtered water, 36-48inch range and vent hood, and structural work for an open concept or butler’s pantry, including removal of bearing walls and/or an addition, for a luxurious open concept.

From the examples above of mid-range and luxury kitchen renovations; it’s easy to see how most of our client-families opt for a hybrid version of both specifications; we simply refer to as The PINNACLE Spec and is what you see throughout our website galleries!

A combination of a professional online presence, transparency into past projects and consistent positive feedback can make it easier for you to focus in on the renovators that you would like to work with to help design and renovate your dream kitchen. From there, you can narrow down the list of contenders and set up meetings between your top choices.

For more than 15 years, 3^rd Party Review company; Client Insight has helped us interview our Pinnacle Group Client Families in an effort to learn more about their experience throughout the build process. These customers have entrusted us to complete large scale home renovations and additions, as such, we want to make sure that we have met and exceeded their expectations, or be made aware of any areas of the process that can be improved upon. These Client surveys provide the opportunity to continually improve and enhance Pinnacle’s build process, keep management informed and ensure quality and excellence. 

No matter what Builder you choose for your project, we believe you deserve to be properly educated by an authority in the industry; our goal is to help provide you with the resources necessary to help you navigate your way to a successful Renovation or Custom Home Build. These resources are designed to help guide you in what you should expect in all stages of your project – Before, During and After your Renovation or Custom Home Build.

Planning for a kitchen renovation should be extremely exciting, but if you aren’t working with the right renovator, it can also end up being quite a stressful process as well. You may have heard the horror stories where project start dates are promised, then missed, along with unforeseen cost over-runs. At Pinnacle Group, our SCC 3-Way Guarantee™ is a promise that we make to every client we serve. That promise is to guarantee the Start date, Completion date, and Cost of your project.

As the old saying goes; nothing beats experience. In the renovation world, that certainly rings true; as most anyone can rip apart walls and spaces, but how do you know what’s behind those walls to ensure surprises don’t show up leading to cost over-runs? Unlike HGTV who play on drama to heighten viewership; a seasoned and experienced renovator should rarely, if ever run into surprises; and sadly that’s what these shows don’t seem to point out; our question is what kind of professional renovator are you if there is a ‘surprise’ and what kind of due diligence was done BEFORE starting the project? if the right Building Planning Process (BPP) occurs early in the design; including bringing key professionals on site; surprises should be mitigated. Pros like engineers, applicable trades impacted by the design, thermal cameras, along with a keen understanding of bearing point loads; surprises are rare, and if so with a guaranteed cost; none of this should be passed on to you the homeowner. 

Once again, the word ‘experience’ comes to play; with a tried-and-true process along with a signature on the contract from the Renovation owner, a guaranteed start and completion date can be achieved, even amidst current supply chain hiccups. Having a vetted group of suppliers and trades that an experienced renovation company would have in hand, is the only way to achieve these kinds of guarantees. But it must be in writing, and the company you are interviewing should have decade(s) long experience supporting their promises, along with 3^rd party Reviews that confirm these start and completion dates were indeed achieved. Trust your instinct when interviewing; and did we mention; look for experience?

Everything from the position of the cabinets and the height of each shelf to the colour, wood grain, and hardware that perfectly accents the presence of natural light will be considered.

There are half a million kitchens in Calgary – yours should stand out from every one of them.  

L-Shaped kitchens are quite popular because they offer plenty of storage and practical flow. These layouts will help you make the best use of your space, and can be further improved with the addition of a central island. 

Gallery Kitchens can help make the most of your square footage, particularly in smaller spaces. In a Gallery layout, you have a longer and narrower kitchen, with a corridor running between two walls that will each feature the kitchen’s counters, storage solutions and appliances. 

U-Shaped kitchens are similar to the Gallery layout described above, but will have an added counter that connects both walls creating the U-Shape sometimes forming a peninsula.
