Kitchen renovations in Toronto range from $18,000 for a cosmetic refresh to $250,000+ for a fully custom luxury kitchen. A partial upgrade with new RTA cabinets, mid-grade quartz, and flooring runs $35,000–$65,000. A full remodel with layout reconfiguration, new plumbing, electrical, and semi-custom cabinetry typically runs $65,000–$120,000.

Final price locks after architectural drawings are produced, the ClearScope™ takeoff is completed, and finish selections are approved. Any quote given before that process is an estimate — we don’t commit numbers without doing the work to earn them.

6 to 14 weeks from demo to final handoff, depending on scope. A cosmetic refresh with no layout changes can be done in 4–6 weeks. A full gut with custom cabinets and plumbing relocation typically runs 10–14 weeks.

The biggest variable is cabinet lead time — custom and semi-custom cabinets run 4–10 weeks from order. At Spartan, cabinets are ordered only after the layout drawing is confirmed and the takeoff is approved, so no dimensions change mid-project.

We find most issues before demolition begins. The pre-construction site assessment, structural review, and permit drawings are designed to surface hidden conditions before work starts — not mid-build.

When genuine surprises occur — galvanized plumbing, asbestos floor tile, unexpected framing — we document it immediately, present you with clear options and transparent pricing, and proceed only with your written approval. You will never receive an invoice for work you didn’t approve.

It depends on what’s being done. Cosmetic work — new cabinets, countertops, tile, and flooring — does not require a permit. Moving plumbing (sink relocation), adding circuits to the panel, or removing a wall requires permits under the Ontario Building Code.

Spartan manages the full permit process — drawings, submission, and inspection scheduling — as part of the scope. You don’t chase the city. We do. For official permit information, visit City of Toronto Building Permits or review the Ontario Building Code.

Yes — most clients do. The kitchen is blocked off and protected during demolition. Once rough-in work is complete and the space is drywalled and primed, the worst of the disruption is behind you. We set up a temporary kitchen area where possible during the build phase.

The most disruptive period is the first 1–2 weeks of demo and rough-in. After that it becomes much more manageable.

70–85% ROI is the typical range for a well-executed kitchen remodel in the GTA. This means a $100,000 kitchen renovation typically adds $70,000–$85,000 in resale value — making it one of the highest-returning renovation investments in Toronto real estate.

ROI varies by neighbourhood, project quality, and how closely the renovation matches buyer expectations in your area. Overbuilding for the neighbourhood — spending $200,000 in a $700,000 home area — reduces returns. Spartan can advise on appropriate scope for your market during the site visit.

We can, or you can. Spartan has supplier relationships for appliances at trade pricing, or we can design the cabinet layout around appliances you’ve already chosen. Either way, appliance specifications are locked into the cabinet plan before ordering — so dimensions are always confirmed and there are no surprises at install.

The ClearScope™ takeoff for a kitchen covers every division of work — demolition, framing, plumbing rough-in, electrical, drywall, cabinets, countertops, backsplash, flooring, range hood ductwork, fixtures, painting, and hardware. Every line item includes quantity, unit of measure, and cost breakdown split by labour and materials.

You also receive colour-coded markup drawings showing exactly what was counted on your layout — so you can trace every line item back to a physical location in the kitchen.

Residential repaints in Toronto typically run $1,800 to $8,000 for a standard interior. Commercial painting services range from $5,000 to $35,000+ depending on scope size. However, every price is fixed after the ClearScope™ scope document is produced — product specified, coats confirmed, prep work included. No additions after the work starts.

Spartan sources paint through a Sherwin-Williams trade account. All products are contractor-grade — not consumer versions of the same product. The specific product line, sheen, and finish are confirmed in the ClearScope™ painting scope before the order is placed. Product substitutions are not made on site without written approval.

3 to 5 days for a standard residential repaint of a 2,000 sq ft home. Single-room painting takes 1 to 2 days. Large commercial or exterior painting scopes vary. The timeline is confirmed in the ClearScope™ scope document before the crew is booked — therefore you can plan around it with certainty.

Yes. Spartan’s painting services cover exterior residential and commercial painting across Toronto and the GTA. Because exterior painting is weather-dependent, the application window and conditions are confirmed before scheduling. Product is 100% acrylic latex selected for the GTA climate. Prep — including caulking, surface cleaning, and spot priming — is included in the fixed price.

Epoxy floor coating is a high-durability flooring system applied to concrete. It is not paint — it is a multi-step system involving diamond grinding, moisture barrier primer, and a solids epoxy topcoat. As a result, it is durable, cleanable, and chemical-resistant in a way that painted concrete is not. It is ideal for garages, commercial kitchens, basements, and retail floors. The surface prep determines the bond quality.

Yes. Residential repaints are commonly done in occupied homes. Spartan’s painting crews use low-VOC and zero-VOC products where occupancy requires it. Furniture is moved and protected as part of the scope. Commercial spaces can be scheduled after hours or in phases to minimize business disruption. Therefore, timing and access requirements are confirmed in the scope document before the crew is booked.

Yes. Parking lot line marking and commercial striping are part of Spartan’s painting services. This covers parking stalls, accessible spaces, fire lanes, directional arrows, stop bars, and curb painting. The layout is confirmed in the scope document before marking begins. In addition, re-marking over existing faded lines and full new layouts on fresh asphalt are both covered.
