Whole-house renovations are also an ideal time to incorporate accessible bathroom features such as grab bars, step-in showers, and wider doorways — future-proofing the home for years to come.

Many Metro Vancouver homeowners are also upgrading to a heat pump HVAC system during major renovations — providing both heating and cooling in one energy-efficient unit, and qualifying for BC Hydro rebates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a whole house renovation cost for a Burnaby townhouse?

A whole house renovation for a Burnaby townhouse typically costs $35,000–$90,000 depending on scope. A modern makeover covering flooring, paint, kitchen update, and bathroom refreshes for a family townhouse runs $35,000–$60,000. A full gut renovation including structural changes, new kitchen, and all bathrooms can reach $90,000–$140,000. Burnaby renovation costs are in line with Metro Vancouver averages, with the primary variables being material grade and the extent of trade work required.

How long does a family townhouse renovation take in Burnaby?

A comprehensive whole house renovation for a Burnaby family townhouse typically takes 8–14 weeks of active construction. Permit-required work (plumbing, electrical panel changes) adds 2–4 weeks for City of Burnaby approvals before construction begins. Strata approval for the alteration is typically required and takes 3–6 weeks. Total project timeline from contract signing to move-in: 3–5 months for a thorough renovation.

Do I need strata approval to renovate my Burnaby townhouse?

Yes. Burnaby townhouse strata corporations require Alteration Approval for renovations affecting shared systems, structural elements, flooring (noise compliance), plumbing, and electrical. Your contractor submits a scope of work, insurance certificates, and WorkSafeBC compliance documentation to the strata council. The approval process typically takes 3–6 weeks. Starting the strata application process in parallel with contractor selection is the most efficient approach.

What are the best renovations for a family with children in a Burnaby townhouse?

For families with children, the highest-impact improvements in Burnaby townhouses are: durable luxury vinyl plank or tile flooring throughout (handles heavy traffic, easy to clean), updated bathrooms with practical storage solutions, modern kitchen with expanded counter space and storage, and fresh neutral paint that photographs well. Safety improvements — updated electrical panels, grounded outlets, and secure stair railings — are worth addressing during any comprehensive renovation. Our Critical Load Panel Installation service upgrades your home electrical capacity for modern renovation demands.

What specific work was completed in this Burnaby townhouse renovation?

This Burnaby townhouse renovation was completed within a $75,000–$78,000 budget over 7–9 weeks, covering four scope areas: re-tiling the entire first floor (replacing dated flooring with a consistent tile or hard-surface material throughout the living areas), repainting the entire home in a fresh colour scheme, replacing light fixtures throughout with contemporary fittings, and renovating both bathrooms. See our guide to BC Strata Renovation Rules for Metro Vancouver homeowners. The combination of flooring, painting, and light fixture replacement — applied across the whole home simultaneously — achieves the maximum visual transformation for the budget, as every surface the eye rests on in daily use has been updated. The two bathroom renovations provided the functional upgrade alongside the whole-home cosmetic refresh.
