Laundry Room Build

Project Description: This Homeowner needed to build a small (5' x 7') fully enclosed Laundry Room in her garage for use by the tenant who lived above. The project required building a raised platform for the floor, installing an exterior door for secure access, running electrical for the washer, dryer, new lights, vent fan, and outlets. Unable to find a contractor willing to do quality work at a reasonable price, the satisfied customer turned to NSWWTX for help.

Once the drywall was mudded and the room painted, the floor was finished of with Hickory laminate, bull nose, shoe molding, and baseboard.

Now a nice cozy, comfortable spot to do a few loads (though please follow the rules).
