Kitchen Renovations in St. Albert

St. Albert kitchen renovations by Mode Built

Mode Built has been delivering kitchen renovation services in Edmonton and St. Albert since 2012, working throughout communities like Jensen Lakes, Erin Ridge, and Lacombe Park.

Founders Shaun Moore and Ryan DeBruyne built Mode Built on the belief that renovation clients deserve to know exactly what they’re investing in: accurate estimates, honest timelines, and great communication. For St. Albert homeowners making a significant kitchen investment, that belief translates directly into the working relationship.

Kitchen renovation options for every space

St. Albert kitchen renovations range from targeted upgrades — new cabinetry, quartz countertops, a backsplash redesign — to full open-concept conversions that change the way the main floor flows. Mode Built handles every level of scope. The plan always starts from a conversation about your specific kitchen, your household, and what success looks like for your renovation.

Why St. Albert homeowners trust Mode Built

Mode Built was founded in 2012 by Shaun Moore, who oversees field operations, and Ryan DeBruyne, who manages business development. The company was established on the conviction that kitchen renovation clients deserve itemized quotes they can rely on, a team that communicates proactively, and a warranty that means something after the project is complete. That conviction drives every St. Albert kitchen renovation Mode Built takes on.

What Mode Built includes in a kitchen renovation

Before a quote is written, a Mode Built team member visits your St. Albert home. They assess the existing kitchen, understand how your household uses the space, and listen to what you want: open concept, upgraded cabinetry, quartz countertops, a layout that makes cooking and gathering feel natural. The estimate that follows is itemized and specific to your kitchen: real scope, accurate cost, honest timeline.

From tile to fixtures, Mode Built handles it all

Mode Built manages every element of the kitchen build through established supplier partnerships and a consistent trade network. The goal is a kitchen that functions the way the heart of the home should — well-organized, durable, and genuinely worth the planning it took to get there.

How Mode Built works around your family

Once the plan is set and approved, Mode Built handles everything from there. Trades get scheduled, materials are sourced through established supplier relationships (not box stores), and the project moves without you having to coordinate any of it. The team works Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and plans around your household. If something disruptive needs to happen around school pickup or a family routine, the team accommodates that. You never need to be home for work to proceed.

Backed by warranty and certification

Mode Built sources kitchen materials through established supplier relationships — not box stores! — and works with the same trade network across all its residential work. Those same partnerships support full home remodeling services in Edmonton — meaning a St. Albert homeowner renovating a kitchen alongside a basement or bathroom gets the same trusted trades on every scope, with no handoffs between unfamiliar crews.

The Mode Built Design Studio — Where your finishes come together

Once confirmed with Mode Built, St. Albert homeowners visit the Mode Built Design Studio in Edmonton for a dedicated appointment with Kelsey, Mode Built’s in-house designer. A kitchen renovation involves more finish decisions than almost any other project — cabinet door profiles, countertop material and edge detail, backsplash tile, hardware, flooring, lighting. The Studio organizes every selection in one space so you can see how the choices work together before any material is ordered or any wall is opened. Kelsey guides every decision and ensures the finished kitchen reflects a coherent design vision.

How It Works

How the kitchen renovation process works

A St. Albert kitchen renovation with Mode Built typically runs 6–10 weeks from start date to final walkthrough, depending on scope. Here’s how the project unfolds at each stage.

step 01

In-home estimate

The process starts with an in-home visit to your St. Albert property. A Mode Built team member assesses the kitchen, talks through your renovation goals — layout, cabinetry, countertops, or a full rebuild — and prepares a detailed, itemized quote for your review.

step 02

Design Studio visit

The Studio appointment is where your vision takes shape. Once the plan is confirmed, you’ll drop into the Mode Built Design Studio in Edmonton for a dedicated appointment with Kelsey, Mode Built’s in-house designer.

In one organized visit, you finalize every finish decision for your kitchen: cabinet door profiles, countertop material and edge detail, backsplash tile, hardware, flooring, and lighting — all curated in one space so you can see how the selections work together as a cohesive whole.

step 03

Build, project management, and draw-based payments

With the plan approved and all selections confirmed, Mode Built manages the full construction phase — scheduling trades, ordering materials through the supplier network, and coordinating the build from demolition through final finishes. A project manager stays in regular contact throughout, so St. Albert homeowners are never left wondering where the project stands or what happens next.

Mode Built uses a draw-based payment structure: payments are tied to completed project milestones, not collected upfront. No deposit is required until the project physically begins. Nothing is started until you’ve reviewed the complete plan and are comfortable with every detail.

step 04

Final walkthrough and two-year warranty

At completion, Mode Built conducts a final walkthrough with you to verify the finished kitchen matches the approved plan in every detail. Outstanding items are resolved before the project closes. The two-year satisfaction warranty on materials and labour begins at that point — the same standard Mode Built applies to every kitchen renovation it delivers.
