How much does an Ikea kitchen cost?

When considering the cost of Ikea kitchens, it's important to take into account various factors that can affect the overall price. The door front style, the quantity of cabinets needed, customizations, the specific components included or cabinets that go all the way up to the ceiling. Another thing to consider is geography. Here in the Edmonton area, labor rates may differ from other provinces and countries.


All these things play a role in determining the final cost. We will only know the cabinet and install cost when we have a design finalized. By carefully assessing these factors and making informed decisions, you can create a kitchen that not only fits your budget, but your tastes too. I am going to break down what an Ikea kitchen will cost you when you hire Forvana Kitchens here in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Ikea kitchen renovations involve more than just cabinets. It typically includes design & planning, demolition of the old kitchen cabinets, countertops, plumbing and backsplash. Then you need to install new cabinets, plumbing fixtures & hook-ups, countertops and some form of backsplash, even if it's just drywalled & painted. These are the essential elements. Additional aspects might include electrical work, new flooring & baseboards. When we renovate bigger projects with appliance relocation, wall removals or window replacements then ceiling modifications, engineered drawings, permits, and venting modifications come into play.


When planning a kitchen renovation, it's important to consider all the essential elements to ensure the project runs smoothly and successfully. While cabinets play a significant role, countertops, plumbing, and a backsplash are equally crucial components that contribute to the overall functionality and aesthetics of the space.


Beyond these basic elements, there are several other factors to take into account. Electrical work is essential to power appliances, counter plugs, lighting fixtures, while flooring selection can dramatically impact the look and feel of the kitchen. Ceiling modifications, such as adding lighting or ventilation, can also enhance the ambiance of the room.


Depending on the scope of the renovation, we may need to consider a structural engineer and have drawing made if we are removing walls and need reinforcing supports. Obtaining the necessary permits is another important step to ensure that the renovation complies with local building codes and regulations.


By carefully considering all these aspects and planning accordingly, you can create a beautiful and functional kitchen that meets your needs and reflects your personal style.

We stumbled upon our new Order Management service after hearing the frustration of ordering an Ikea kitchen from our clients. Are you familiar with purchasing things like furniture from Ikea? If you are then you know about all the boxes. Every piece is in it’s own box. Now when you purchase a kitchen from Ikea there are literally hundreds of boxes. And since covid there have been all kinds of global supply problems. For some reason Ikea has been hit extra hard. There once was a time when you went into an Ikea, purchased your kitchen and the entire kitchen was there. You brought it home and started assembling it that day. Those days are long gone. Now when you go to purchase your kitchen maybe 75% of it is there for you take home. And yes, you have to take it home that day or have it delivered. You purchase what is in stock and then you are handed a couple different pieces of paper with all the items that are not in stock. You see the picture above with the order information, that’s all the out of stock items for one kitchen. And now you are on your own to check online, everyday to see if any of your items have arrived, then make multiple trip to Ikea to pick up these stragglers. So while you find a spot to safely store all of these boxes somewhere in your home, you get the privilege of obsessing over the Ikea website for the next month or two waiting for the rest of kitchen to arrive. And you better click and collect those items because by the time you get to the store they could be sold out before the doors even open, it’s happened to me. Its complicated for me and I do it all the time. It can get really frustrating if you have never done it before.
