Frequently Asked Questions: Bathroom Renovations in Kanata
How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Kanata?
Kanata bathroom renovations typically range from $12,000-$30,000. Updating builder-grade finishes without layout changes costs $10,000-$18,000. Full master bathroom renovations with custom tile work and new layouts run $20,000-$35,000.
Should I replace my almond-colored bathroom fixtures?
Almond and bone-colored fixtures from the 80s and 90s instantly date a bathroom. Replacing them with white fixtures and modern faucets transforms the space. Consider a phased approach if budget is limited—fixtures first, then tile and vanity later.
Is it worth adding a double vanity in Kanata?
Double vanities are highly desirable in master bathrooms and add value. Most Kanata master baths have space for 60-72 inch vanities. If your current layout doesn't accommodate two sinks, we can often reconfigure plumbing to make it work.
How do I modernize my 1990s oak bathroom vanity?
Options include: painting existing oak cabinets (budget-friendly but labor-intensive), replacing just the countertop and sinks (mid-range), or installing a completely new vanity (most impactful). New vanities with quartz tops and undermount sinks provide the best transformation.
Can you install heated bathroom floors in Kanata homes?
Heated floors are excellent additions to Kanata bathrooms, especially given Ottawa winters. Electric radiant heat mats install under tile during renovation for $800-$1,500 depending on bathroom size. They're best added during a floor renovation rather than retrofitted.
How long does a Kanata bathroom renovation take?
Most Kanata bathroom renovations take 2-3 weeks for straightforward updates, or 3-4 weeks for full remodels with layout changes. Homes with original builder-grade bathrooms are often simpler to renovate than older Ottawa homes.
