Not every remodel is a kitchen, bath, bedroom or living room. Laundry rooms, mudrooms, hobby rooms, playrooms, utility spaces and flex rooms can have their own storage, finish and layout needs.
Rooms That Fit This Service
Examples include:
- laundry rooms;
- mudrooms;
- craft or hobby rooms;
- playrooms;
- exercise rooms;
- utility rooms;
- flex spaces;
- small bonus rooms.
If the space is an attic, basement, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, dining room, office or living room, use the more specific remodeling service.
Define How the Room Will Be Used
Storage and work surfaces depend on the activity.
A laundry room may need appliance clearances and utility access. A mudroom may need durable storage and benches. A craft room may need tables, shelves and lighting.
The layout should be based on the actual use rather than generic furniture placement.
Utilities and Structure
Laundry, utility and exercise spaces can involve electrical, plumbing, ventilation or structural loading.
Qualified trades should handle regulated systems and structural changes.
Laundry and Utility-Space Boundaries
Laundry and utility rooms can contain water valves, drains, dryer vents, gas, electrical equipment and service panels.
Storage, counters and finish work should be planned so those systems remain accessible. Dryer-vent changes, plumbing modifications, gas work and electrical circuits should be handled by the appropriate qualified trades.
Finish Work
After utilities and structural conditions are resolved, work can include drywall, paint, trim, flooring, shelving, cabinets and compatible fixtures or furniture.
