Kitchen
Transform your kitchen into a vibrant and functional space where your family can gather, cook, and create memories together.
Planning around how the kitchen is used
A kitchen renovation touches plumbing, electrical, cabinetry and finishes at the same time, so Costar plans the layout around how the household actually cooks and gathers before ordering materials. The client reviews cabinet, counter and appliance choices during the construction stage of the standard Costar process, alongside the electrician and plumber doing the rough-in work.
Working with the same trades and suppliers on every kitchen
Costar works with outside fabricators and suppliers for countertops, cabinetry and fixtures, so a kitchen renovation draws on the same trade relationships used on Costar's larger builds. A construction manager supervises the crew and subtrades and checks the finished work before it is signed off.

Questions
Frequently asked questions about Kitchen
What is involved in a kitchen renovation with Costar?
A Costar kitchen renovation follows the same construction-stage process used on larger builds: the client reviews cabinets, counters, appliances, electrical and lighting choices, and Costar supervises the crew and subtrades, including any required rough-in inspections for plumbing and electrical work.
Which areas does Costar renovate kitchens in?
Costar takes on kitchen renovation projects across Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, Coquitlam, New Westminster, North Vancouver, West Vancouver and Port Moody, the same service area covered by Costar's custom home and multiplex work.
Who fabricates the countertops and cabinetry for a Costar kitchen?
Costar works with suppliers such as Tavstone for countertop fabrication and Germanhaus for Leicht kitchens, Gaggenau appliances and Caesarstone countertops.
Does someone check the finished kitchen work before it is signed off?

The client reviews and chooses the cabinet, counter and appliance options during the construction stage of Costar's standard process, working from the fabricators and suppliers listed on the Relationships page.
