Home renovation pricing in Markham
Umi: indicative CAD planning ranges, scope assumptions and questions for your written quote.
Mid-range whole-home interior renovation
$130–$215CAD per sq. ft., before HST
An indicative planning allowance, subject to the actual scope and site assessment. This is not a fixed quote.
What this allowance is for
A mid-range whole-home interior renovation, with a coordinated kitchen, bathrooms, flooring and general finishes. It is a broad area-based starting point; the number of kitchens and bathrooms, the retained conditions and layout changes strongly affect the result.
Budget separately for
HST, contingency, appliances, furniture, temporary accommodation, additions, major structural work and complete building-system replacement are outside this indicative allowance. Design and permit inclusions vary between sources and must be itemized in your quote.
Ask for a quote you can compare
- Identify the rooms and measured area included
- Separate labour, supplied materials and selection allowances
- Itemize design, permit fees, disposal and temporary protection
- Show HST, exclusions and how changes will be agreed
Use a defined scope, not only a floor area.
Two homes with the same floor area may need very different work. Measure the spaces being renovated and distinguish retained features from replacement items before treating an allowance as a project budget.
