The 7 secrets of a successful kitchen renovation in 2025

1. Maîtrisez votre triangle de travail : L’ergonomie avant tout

The “working triangle” is the beating heart of any functional kitchen. Strategically position your sink, stove and refrigerator for optimal workflow. The goal? Limit your movements to within 9 feet between each point.

💡 Pro Tip: Leave a minimum of 36 inches between each zone for smooth circulation.

2. Smart budgeting: Anticipate without stress

The average kitchen renovation in Quebec ranges between $35,000 and $45,000. Our advice? Always provide a minimum cushion of 10% for unforeseen events.

Concrete example: On a budget of 40,000, keep 4,000. These funds will protect you from surprises behind the walls, typical of Quebec houses.

3. Lighting: The light that transforms

Good lighting is 3 layers:

  • General ambient lighting
  • Targeted work lighting
  • Decorative accent lighting

Investing in good lighting is investing in the atmosphere and safety of your kitchen.
