🧺 Why Renovate Your Laundry Room?

Let’s face it — no one loves doing laundry. But the right design can make it faster, more organized, and even enjoyable. A clean, efficient laundry space can also:

  • Improve energy efficiency

  • Add storage and counter space

  • Enhance your home's overall look

  • Serve multiple purposes (like a mudroom or cleaning station)

🛠️ What’s Involved in a Laundry Room Renovation?

1. Assess the Space and Your Needs

First, evaluate how the space is currently being used. Are you lacking storage? Do you need folding counters? Is there poor lighting or ventilation?

We work with you to design a layout that fits your routine — whether it’s a small closet-style laundry or a full basement setup.

2. Upgrade Appliances and Utility Connections

If you’re upgrading your washer and dryer, it’s the perfect time to modernize electrical and plumbing connections. We ensure everything is safe, code-compliant, and ready to support energy-efficient appliances.

3. Cabinetry and Storage Solutions

Custom or pre-built cabinets make a big difference. Add wall-mounted cabinets, open shelving, and base drawers to keep cleaning supplies, linens, and laundry products neatly organized.

4. Countertops and Work Surfaces

Installing a countertop above your front-load washer/dryer gives you an instant folding station. Quartz or laminate are popular choices for being both durable and easy to clean.

5. Sink and Faucet Installation

Adding a utility sink is incredibly useful — for soaking, hand-washing, or cleaning muddy boots. We recommend deep basins and durable finishes like stainless steel or granite composite.

6. Flooring and Lighting

Choose water-resistant, slip-proof flooring like vinyl, ceramic tile, or laminate. Then brighten the space with layered lighting — ceiling lights, under-cabinet strips, or even a small window if possible.
