What it typically costs
Kitchen remodels typically fall into three tiers: a cosmetic refresh runs roughly $10,000–$25,000, a mid-range remodel with new cabinets and layout tweaks runs $30,000–$75,000, and a full gut renovation starts around $75,000.
Local note: the City of Markham requires permits for plumbing relocation, electrical work beyond fixture swaps, and structural changes — factor inspection timelines into your schedule.

What Markham homes are actually like
Markham ranges from mature homes in Unionville and Milliken Mills to newer builds in Cornell. A lot of the renovation demand here is basement finishing, since many Markham subdivisions were originally built with unfinished lower levels.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel?
Only if you're moving plumbing or gas lines, or doing structural work like removing a wall — cosmetic updates (cabinets, countertops, backsplash) typically don't require one.
