Client Success

Testimonials

We take pride in delivering the best results possible, and nothing brings bigger smiles to our faces than a happy customer. Here's what our amazing clients have to say about working with us.

Janet and JP, Waterloo

We felt very confident right from the start... Eagleview came into our home and had so many ideas that they was sharing with us. The designer stood in our family room and told us more than 10 different ways that we could see the space. That completely blew us away.

Fraser & Ellianne Ruby, Kitchener

Eagleview Construction's exceptional workmanship and quality of subcontractors ensured the project's success. We strongly recommend Eagleview and excited to potentially working with them again in the future.

Clayton and Camelia, Uptown Waterloo

Wendy & Don, Kitchener

This whole house has been designed to be wheelchair friendly and we are just thrilled with it. Eagleview really got into our concept and always found solutions to our problems. If any of our friends were thinking about doing a renovation to age in place, we would certainly recommend Eagleview.

Koichi and Marguerite, Kitchener

We recommend them all the time to people. We had a really great experience - it’s like your friends were helping you out. I felt like they cared about us, our house, and that we would be happy in the long run. I’m really happy with the solution we have!

Amy & Maureen, Kitchener

The thing we love about Iain and Ben is that they are very clear about the reality of what can be done within your budget. They were always very quick with their communication and very honest; we never felt like we didn’t know what was happening. We love the neighbourhood, we love our home, we love our neighbours so it’s like we’ve created exactly what we wanted and what we needed with Eagleview.

Charity & Jason, Kitchener

The Eagleview difference or the thing that sealed the deal was that from the get-go, they were super solid in terms of communication and every step of the way we were guided. They treated the project as if it was their own home!

Kitchen Renovation FAQs

Common questions from Kitchener-Waterloo homeowners planning a kitchen renovation.

How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Kitchener?

Kitchen renovations typically range from $65,000 to $250,000 and up, depending on size, materials, and complexity. Cosmetic refreshes with no structural changes start at the lower end. Full reconfigurations with premium finishes, relocated plumbing, and new electrical are at the higher end. Eagleview provides a detailed cost breakdown during the design phase so there are no surprises.

How long does a kitchen renovation take?

Most kitchen renovations take 6 to 12 weeks. Projects with no structural changes or drywall removal are typically 6 to 8 weeks. Projects involving structural work, plumbing relocation, or electrical upgrades are 8 to 12 weeks. Timeline is confirmed during the design phase.

Do I need a building permit for a kitchen renovation in Kitchener?

Most kitchen renovations that involve structural changes, plumbing relocation, or electrical panel upgrades require a building permit from the City of Kitchener. Cosmetic updates like replacing countertops and cabinets within the same layout typically do not. Eagleview handles the full permit application process and ensures all work meets Ontario Building Code requirements.

Does HST apply to kitchen renovations in Ontario?

Yes, the 13% Harmonized Sales Tax applies to renovation services in Ontario. If your home is your primary residence and the renovation qualifies as a substantial renovation, you may be eligible for the GST/HST New Housing Rebate. Eagleview can help you understand whether your project qualifies.

Can I stay in my home during the renovation?

The majority of Eagleview’s clients stay in their home during a kitchen renovation. There will be some disruption from noise and dust, and you won’t have access to the kitchen for portions of the project. Eagleview discusses temporary solutions during the planning phase to minimize impact on your household.

What happens if you find unexpected issues in my older Kitchener home?

In older Kitchener homes, it is common to discover outdated wiring, galvanized plumbing, or asbestos-containing materials once walls are opened. Eagleview’s project management process includes contingency planning. Any unexpected findings are documented, options are presented, and work only proceeds once you approve the approach and cost.

Can Eagleview work with my existing kitchen layout?

Many Kitchener homes — from century-era properties in established neighbourhoods to postwar builds across Waterloo Region — have unique kitchen layouts that can be improved without a complete reconfiguration. Eagleview’s design team evaluates your existing space and recommends whether optimizing the current layout or starting fresh will give you the best result for your budget.

Do you offer a warranty on kitchen renovations?

Yes. Eagleview backs every kitchen renovation with a 2-year workmanship warranty that begins at project completion.
