Remaining week used to be a bummer. However this week is shaping as much as be significantly better with much more growth. Already this morning, I’m seeing growth at the walk-in closet and laundry house.

I’m hoping they are able to end casting off the floor and subfloor via the top of the day.

After they get the vapor barrier, insulation, and new subfloor put in, they’ll be development a brand new wall about right here to split the room into two spaces. After which they’ll have so as to add {the electrical} shops and plumbing for the washing machine and dryer.

I will’t even let you know how excited I’m that via the top of this week, I’ll most likely have a laundry room. It’ll nonetheless want floor, however that will probably be as much as me to put in and end the floor. And I’ll be very motivated to get that completed simply in order that I will get my washing machine and dryer moved in right here. Although it’ll be some time ahead of I will end out the world (as a result of I wish to do the bed room first), simply having the ability to transfer the washing machine and dryer out of the sunroom will really feel like an enormous growth.

Some other factor that I’ll have them do whilst they’re this is to heart the door into this room in order that it’s targeted with the window and will probably be targeted with the entrance between the closet and the laundry house.

And I’ve determined that I’m no longer going to place a door between the hallway and the walk-in closet, and I’m going to take that doorway all of the manner as much as the ceiling to make the 2 entrances (into the closet and into the bed room) have a cohesive glance.

The problem is that the doorway into the walk-in closet can’t move all of the manner as much as the ceiling as a result of that wall is load-bearing and it will be manner too structurally difficult (and costly) to take away that high plate. In order that they’re going to open it as much as the highest position of the wall and depart that revealed for me to care for. I have already got a plan for methods to care for that little hurdle.

Anyway, something that dawned on me this weekend is that I had deliberate to place hardwood floor all all the way through this complete house, from the brand new bed room French doorways, during the closet and laundry house, the hallway, and the bed room. So principally, all of this house within the orange.

However does that make sense to place hardwood floor in a laundry house? Maximum laundry rooms don’t have hardwood floor. I imply, it’s no longer utterly extraordinary, however tile appears to be the go-to floor for toilets and laundry room.

So now I’m considering that I would possibly want to plan for tile simply within the laundry house, which will probably be separated from the closet via a 15-lite pocket door.

Perhaps I’m overthinking it. However possibly no longer. I actually suppose I will have to put tile in that house, proper? I’ve by no means had a correct laundry room ahead of, so let me know your stories. Have you ever had hardwood floor in a laundry room ahead of? And if this is the case, used to be it an issue?
