3 Ideas for Your Laundry Room Remodel

Did you know that Americans spend more time in the laundry room than they do in the bathroom? Yep, it’s true. We spend an average of eight hours per week washing, drying, folding, and putting laundry away. One would think that with all that time dedicated to laundry, the laundry room remodel would have evolved a bit further by now.

The good news is that homeowners are increasingly remodeling laundry rooms to be as effective and convenient as the kitchen or bathroom. Here are three ways to get the most out of your laundry room remodel.

1. Install a utility sink. This is often overlooked or brushed off as unnecessary, but having a dedicated sink in the laundry room provides space for hand washing, soaking grass-stained sports gear or even acting as an area to pot plants.
2. Add hanging racks. This seems like a no-brainer, but it’s an often-overlooked part of a laundry room remodel. These provide a place to hang up your delicates or clothes straight from the dryer. That means no more hanging your work clothes in every doorway of the house!
3. Cabinets, cabinets, and more cabinets. You know why we say this, right? Because cabinets equal storage. Nice, enclosed, hidden storage. The laundry room cabinets can store your regular laundry items like laundry detergent, fabric softener, bleach, etc. But they can also provide storage for miscellaneous household items such as toilet paper, paper towels, and cleaning supplies.
