29 Questions Homeowners should ask
to avoid common mistakes when selecting a renovator
You’ve spent decades building a life in Maple, and you aren’t leaving now. But your kitchen is outdated and frustrating. We design and build stress-free, custom kitchens for homeowners ready to finally create their forever space. Let’s talk.
You’ve likely heard the contractor horror stories: budgets doubling overnight, strangers tracking mud through the house, and projects dragging on for months. Homeowners in Maple choose SOSNA because they want the exact opposite. We are a dedicated design-build partner for those who crave a structured, predictable, and transparent experience.
We sit down with you to truly understand your daily hurdles. Then, we deliver a meticulous plan, a guaranteed completion date, and a fixed-price contract before a single hammer swings. We absorb the stress of the renovation, so you can simply enjoy the transformation of your home.
Your home’s rhythm has likely shifted since you first moved in. Perhaps the house is a little quieter now, or maybe you’re hosting large family gatherings instead of prepping quick school lunches. We don’t just update finishes; we rethink how your space operates. We listen to your specific frustrations and design a functional layout that effortlessly supports this new, exciting phase of your life in Maple.
Sometimes, a fresh coat of paint simply won't fix a fundamentally awkward layout. When it’s time to take your kitchen right down to the studs, the thought of the ensuing chaos can be paralyzing. We remove that burden entirely. From moving plumbing and knocking down walls to managing the final coat of paint, our team handles the entire overhaul under one roof. We handle the heavy lifting so you don't have to live in a messy, disorganized construction zone.
Bending down to rummage through a dark, unorganized corner cabinet shouldn't be part of your daily routine. We design beautiful, custom-built cabinetry tailored to exactly what you need to store, putting your essentials right at your fingertips. We pair this smart storage with layered lighting, ensuring your counters are perfectly illuminated for meal prep, reading recipes, or simply enjoying a quiet moment at the end of the day.
Walking into a massive design showroom can instantly trigger decision fatigue. There are just too many options. Our designers act as your personal guides, helping you cut through the clutter. We'll help you select elegant, low-maintenance materials like durable quartz or gorgeous granite that offer the luxurious look you want, without requiring hours of scrubbing to keep them looking pristine.
Modern kitchen technology is meant to make your life easier, not force you to memorize a complicated user manual. Whether it’s integrating whisper-quiet range hoods, touchless faucets, or intuitive lighting controls, we carefully select and install smart features that seamlessly blend into your daily routine. We handle the technical side so you can simply enjoy the convenience.
Your kitchen floor is the hardest-working surface in your home. It needs to be incredibly durable, easy to clean, and safe underfoot, yet still look stunning. We help you choose the perfect foundational materials that stand up to daily life while feeling warm and inviting. Combined with expertly placed ambient lighting, we ensure your kitchen feels like a cozy retreat from morning to night.
You want a space which feels uniquely yours, completely free from fleeting design trends that will look dated in five years. We know it can be incredibly hard to visualize how different finishes will come together. That's why our design team creates realistic 3D renderings of your future Maple kitchen. You get to virtually walk through your new space and tweak every detail until it feels perfect.
Inviting a team into your sanctuary is a big deal. You deserve a renovation partner who respects your home as much as you do. Here is what we promise:

We sit down to hear your story. We want to know what drives you crazy about your current kitchen and what your dream space looks like.

We picked them because they handle the whole renovation process, from design to construction and each step by them was handled wonderfully. From the initial meetings where we never felt pressured to go with them. To the design process where the designer guided us to a design that was a true reflection of us. To the construction process that was handled with a high level of craftsmanship and an eye for detail. They went above and beyond in so many ways. Timeline and budget are real schedules and hard numbers to them and not just ephemeral targets to try and hit. Our renovation came in on time and budget and any changes were conscious decisions on our part. When we started this process, my partner and I said to each other that if we are spending all this money, the finished result can’t just be something we like but that we love. And I can happily say that we love our home now.Posted on Brent McLeodTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve done two projects with Sosna and are about to start the third one soon. Can’t recommend Sosna highly enough. Their workmanship is top notch. Their commitment to being within time, budget while delivering superb product is impressive. We love working with Sosa!Posted on Dipika DeolTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a stellar experience it is renovating with Sosna. I am privileged to have had my last 2 homes renovated by Sosna. We just finished our reno on our new home, which was the entire main floor, kitchen, stairs, powder, flooring, living, dining. Plus, new flooring on all 3 levels + upgrades to the lower fireplace and bathroom fans on all 3 levels. It turned out spectacular. They work with you from design to budget to construction to completion. I previously used them for renos on my last home in 2018 and then again on this new home in 2025-26. They are not just meticulous professionals...they are true quality people. Love Sosna! I will always go back to them for any renos I need done on my home!Posted on Kim MaggiacomoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The work was done quickly and efficiently. The result was a great job well done. Sergei was professional and the cleanup was perfect.Posted on Steven KozlowskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are very happy that we decided to use Sosna for our renovations. Olga, our designer, has done an excellent job with the kitchen and bathroom designs and always explained why she made specific recommendations. She provided multiple design options to chose from, integrated our suggestions and sought constant feedback to make sure we were happy and within the budget guidelines. The design process has been well organized and her attention to detail has been impressive. Selecting fixtures, flooring, countertops, etc. was not as daunting as we expected because Olga and her team made sure that we stayed focused and on budget. We appreciate all the help that Olga and the team at Sosna have provided to date. They have been highly professional and respectful.Posted on AlexTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Five stars are not enough to describe our level of satisfaction with Sosna. From the initial discovery meeting with the project adviser, Jolene, to the completion of our basement renovation, the Sosna team demonstrated not just the highest level of professionalism, but also genuine care for our interests. I have the deepest gratitude for Camila, our designer, Dante, the estimator, Roman, our project manager, and, of course, Sergey and Nazar who were here seven o’clock sharp every work morning, whose hard work ensured the project was completed within a very tight timeline. Sosna also has a whole sleuth of electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, flooring installers, painters and other needed tradespeople to call upon so that it was worry-free for our part, although I had it on good authority that our esteemed project manager did lose sleep over it! Finally, I’d like to commend the Sosna team for their attention to details for not just completing projects, but projects that they and their clients can be proud of. I know that whenever we are in the basement, we will remember the Sosna team fondly!Posted on Anne RigbyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Sosna for our kitchen, bathroom and entrance renovation. They were recommended to us by our friends who had everything completed on time with no stress. And this is how it’s been for us. We worked with various contractors before where we had to check all the work multiple times and ask them to fix it. In contrast, when working with Sosna, they would notice mistakes if any by themselves and promptly address them without us needing to pay attention. This was very valuable to us. Communication was great throughout. We love the finished product. We would work with them again.Posted on Gintare Karolina DziugaiteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We chose "Sosna" hoping that both of our bathrooms would be renovated according to our plan, delivered on schedule, and meet the highest quality standards. Our expectations were not just met—they were exceeded! Throughout every stage of the renovation, the "Sosna" team demonstrated the highest level of professionalism and skill. They were always available to answer our questions and provided truly invaluable advice on design, material selection, and much more. Communication with the project manager Leo was highly productive from the very first consultation to the final walk-through. We are absolutely thrilled with the results and genuinely enjoy our newly renovated bathrooms every single day. We highly recommend "Sosna" for any home renovation project!Posted on Olga PetrovTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently hired the Sosna team to renovate a couple of my bathrooms. The overall experience dealing with them was fantastic. They provided detailed scope and quotes upfront, was clear with expectations and timelines. Perhaps most importantly, unlike other contractors I've worked with in the past, they set the price upfront and there's no changes after the fact. The work they did was fantastic, their team is courteous throughout the project, was very mindful of our life and made sure to be minimally disruptive. Overall I'm extremely satisfied with the overall outcome of their work. Would 100% recommend them to others!Posted on Dave Chen
