One of the first questions Calgary homeowners ask us is: "How much does it cost?" It's a fair question — and one we're happy to answer transparently. This guide covers our current pricing, what affects your final quote, what's included, and how resurfacing compares to the alternatives.
Countertop Resurfacing Pricing in Calgary (2026)
Our countertop resurfacing pricing is based primarily on the linear footage of your countertop — the total length of all countertop runs in your kitchen.
| Kitchen Size | Approximate Linear Footage | Starting Price |
|---|---|---|
| Small kitchen (galley, condo) | Up to 10 linear ft | From $1,090 + GST |
| Medium kitchen (typical Calgary home) | 10–18 linear ft | From $1,390 + GST |
| Large kitchen (open concept, island) | 18–26 linear ft | From $1,790 + GST |
| Extra large / custom | 26+ linear ft | Custom quote |
These are starting prices. Your final quote depends on several factors covered below.
What Affects Your Final Quote
1. Linear Footage
The primary driver. We measure the total length of all countertop runs — including the island if you have one. A standard Calgary kitchen with a perimeter counter and no island typically runs 12–16 linear feet.
2. Condition of the Existing Surface
A countertop in good condition requires standard prep — cleaning, light sanding, and priming. A countertop with significant damage (deep chips, peeling laminate, previous coatings that need removal) requires more prep work, which adds time and cost.
3. Design Complexity
Standard marble and stone looks are included in our base pricing. Highly detailed custom designs, multi-colour blends, or complex metallic effects may carry a small design premium.
4. Cutouts and Fixtures
Standard single or double sink cutouts are included. Unusual fixture configurations or integrated sinks with complex edge profiles may affect pricing.
5. Edge Profile
A standard straight or slightly eased edge is included. Decorative edge profiles (ogee, bullnose, waterfall) are available as an upgrade.

Countertop Resurfacing vs. Replacement: The Cost Comparison
Here's the honest comparison for a typical Calgary kitchen:
Epoxy Countertop Resurfacing
- Cost: $1,090–$2,500+ depending on size
- Timeline: 1 day (3–4 hours on-site)
- Disruption: Minimal — kitchen back in use same day
- Warranty: 3 years workmanship
Laminate Replacement
- Cost: $1,800–$4,500 installed
- Timeline: 3–5 days (fabrication + installation)
- Disruption: Sink disconnected, kitchen out of use for days
- Warranty: Varies by manufacturer
Quartz Countertop Replacement
- Cost: $3,500–$8,000+ installed
- Timeline: 1–2 weeks (template, fabrication, installation)
- Disruption: Significant — plumbing disconnection, kitchen out of use
- Warranty: Manufacturer warranty on material; labour varies
Granite Countertop Replacement
- Cost: $3,000–$7,000+ installed
- Timeline: 1–2 weeks
- Disruption: Same as quartz
- Warranty: Varies
For most Calgary homeowners with structurally sound countertops, resurfacing delivers 80–90% of the visual impact of replacement at 20–35% of the cost — in a fraction of the time.
Is Resurfacing Worth It Before Selling?
This is one of the most common scenarios we see in Calgary. Homeowners preparing to list want to maximize appeal without over-investing in a property they're selling.
Epoxy countertop resurfacing is one of the highest-ROI pre-sale investments available. A $1,200–$1,800 resurfacing project that transforms a dated kitchen can add $5,000–$15,000 in perceived value and help the home sell faster. Real estate agents consistently tell us that kitchen condition is one of the top factors buyers consider — and dated countertops are one of the most common objections.
The math is straightforward: spend $1,500 to potentially gain $10,000+ in sale price. It's hard to find a better return on a home improvement investment.
Can I Get a Firm Quote Without a Home Visit?
We provide ballpark estimates over the phone or by email based on your kitchen dimensions and photos. However, our firm written quotes are always based on an in-home assessment — we need to see the condition of your existing surface, measure accurately, and confirm the design direction before committing to a price.
The in-home consultation is free, takes about 30 minutes, and comes with no obligation. Most Calgary homeowners find it helpful to see physical design samples in their actual kitchen before making a decision.
Financing and Payment
We accept all major credit cards, e-transfer, and cash. Payment is due on completion of the project — no deposit required for standard residential projects.
