Etobicoke kitchens range from the galley layouts of Long Branch bungalows to the larger open-plan kitchens of Kingsway detached homes — and the renovation that is right for one is completely different from what works for the other. GoGajic Construction renovates kitchens throughout Etobicoke with a full in-house crew, same-week estimates, and no travel surcharges for Alderwood, Mimico, Islington, or anywhere else in Etobicoke. Every project is backed by a 5-year workmanship warranty.
Why Etobicoke Homeowners Choose GoGajic for Kitchen Renovations
Etobicoke’s renovation market has specific characteristics that affect how kitchen projects are scoped and priced. Homes in Alderwood and Long Branch are post-war bungalows — small galley kitchens that require creative space planning to create an open-concept layout without sacrificing storage. Homes in the Kingsway and Stonegate-Queensway area are larger and typically support full custom kitchen installations with islands, butler’s pantries, and premium finishes. GoGajic’s crew has worked throughout Etobicoke long enough to know which type of project each neighbourhood typically requires before the estimate is written.
- No travel surcharge. Etobicoke is a primary GoGajic service area — no mobilization fees added at contract signing.
- Same-week site visits. GoGajic provides estimates within 5 business days of inquiry and written quotes within 3 business days of the visit.
- Wall removal expertise. Many Etobicoke bungalow kitchens require removing a wall to open the layout. GoGajic’s in-house structural assessment and permit-ready engineering drawings handle load-bearing wall removals without requiring a separate engineering firm.
- 5-year warranty. Every Etobicoke kitchen GoGajic completes is warranted for 5 years on all labour and installed materials.

How GoGajic Handles Kitchen Renovations in Etobicoke Homes
The specific logistics of an Etobicoke kitchen renovation depend on the home type. Here is what the process looks like for the two most common scenarios.
Bungalow kitchen renovation (Alderwood, Long Branch, Mimico): Most 1950s–1960s Etobicoke bungalow kitchens are 80–120 square feet in a U-shape or galley layout separated from the dining room by a wall. The first decision is whether to remove that wall. If the wall is load-bearing — common in post-war construction — GoGajic prepares the structural drawings, installs the beam, and manages the permit before any finishing work begins. The result is an open-concept kitchen that feels twice the size without increasing the footprint.
Larger home kitchen renovation (Kingsway, Stonegate, Islington Village): Homes in the Kingsway area typically have larger existing kitchens and support more extensive custom work — full custom cabinetry, stone countertops, integrated appliance panels, and island installations. GoGajic scopes these projects with the same written estimate process but with a more detailed design phase to coordinate custom cabinet specifications and stone slab selection.
In both scenarios, the sequence is: site assessment → written estimate → permits (if required) → demolition → rough-in → cabinet and finish installation → final walk-through.

What Etobicoke Homeowners Ask Before Booking a Kitchen Renovation
My Etobicoke bungalow kitchen has a wall separating it from the dining room. Is removing it straightforward?
In post-war Etobicoke bungalows, the wall between the kitchen and dining room is frequently load-bearing. A structural assessment is required before a quote can include wall removal. GoGajic assesses the wall structure during the site visit at no cost. If the wall is load-bearing, GoGajic prepares the engineering drawings, pulls the permit, and installs the beam as part of the project scope. The typical cost of a load-bearing wall removal with beam installation in an Etobicoke bungalow is $8,000–$15,000 as a component of the overall kitchen renovation.
Does GoGajic renovate condo kitchens in Humber Bay Shores?
Yes. Condo kitchen renovations in the Humber Bay area require condo board approval before work begins. GoGajic is familiar with the standard approval process — providing the board with scope documentation, trade qualifications, and insurance certificates. Condo renovations also require specific noise and work-hour restrictions that GoGajic builds into the project schedule.
How long does a kitchen renovation take in an Etobicoke home?
A full mid-range kitchen renovation in Etobicoke takes 4 to 6 weeks from demolition to final walk-through. Projects that include a load-bearing wall removal add 1 to 2 weeks for structural work. GoGajic provides a written timeline with every project agreement, and updates the homeowner immediately if anything discovered on demo day affects the schedule.
