Where it fits
Laundry layouts for the space you've got
Laundries end up wherever there's room: a cupboard, a narrow passage, the corner of a garage. The layout follows the space.
European laundry
Machines, a small tub and a bench built into a cupboard, with doors that close it all away. It works well where the laundry gave up its room to a bigger kitchen.
Best for hallways and open-plan living
Galley laundry
Bench and machines along one wall, storage along the other. It turns a walk-through passage into a working laundry.
Best for passages to the back door
L-shaped laundry
Machines along one wall, with the tub and a folding bench on the other, meeting in a corner. The most bench for the floor area.
Best for separate laundry rooms
Garage laundry
A run of cabinets holding the machines and a tub against a garage wall. Water and a drain have to be run to it, and doors keep the dust off.
Best for houses with no room inside
Cupboards and shelves
Laundry storage for wash day
A laundry holds more than washing. Brooms, the vacuum, the ironing board, cleaning bottles and pet food all need a home, or they end up on the bench.
A tall cupboard
Full-height storage for the broom, mop, vacuum and ironing board, with a shelf up top for things you rarely use.
Machines side by side or stacked
Side by side gives you a bench on top. Stacking the dryer on the washer frees a whole stretch of wall for cupboards.
A hanging rail
A rail over the bench for shirts straight out of the dryer, so they go onto hangers while they're still warm.
Pull-out baskets
Baskets under the bench for darks, lights and towels, so the sorting is done before you start a load.
Somewhere high for the chemicals
A shelf above the machines keeps powder and cleaning sprays off the bench and out of reach of kids.
Two ways to go
Quick laundry refresh or full rebuild?
Not every laundry needs stripping back to the walls. It comes down to whether the layout works and whether the floor is sound.
Keep the layout and the plumbing
Quick refresh
- New cabinet doors, or new cabinets in the same spots
- A new benchtop over the machines
- A new tub and tap
- A tiled splashback and fresh paint
Suits a laundry that works fine but looks tired.
Change the layout
Full rebuild
- Everything stripped out to the walls and floor
- Tub and machines moved, with new pipes and drains
- New waterproofing and floor tiles
- New cabinets, bench and storage throughout
Suits a laundry in the wrong spot, one that's too small, or one with a cracked or leaking floor.
Two rooms, one job
Renovating your laundry with your bathroom
Laundries and bathrooms often share a wall. In older houses they're usually side by side in the lean-to at the back, a single-storey add-on with a sloping roof.
Doing both at once means the old rooms only get stripped out once, and the plumbing, waterproofing and tiling only get done once. You can run the same floor tile through both rooms, too.
The catch is going without both rooms at the same time. If it's your only shower, talk to us about the order, so one room stays usable while the other is being done.

(08) 6275 6588How much does it cost to renovate a laundry?
The biggest factor is whether the tub and machines move, since keeping them in place keeps the plumbing simple. After that it's the amount of cabinetry, the benchtop and the tiles. You'll get a price once we've measured up.
Can I use flat-pack cabinets in a laundry?
Yes. Flat-pack cabinets work in a laundry if they're made from moisture-resistant board and the bench over the machines is well supported. Tell us at the measure-up if you're thinking of buying your own.
Can you move my laundry to another room?
Usually, yes. The new spot needs hot and cold water, a drain and power for the machines. Moving it onto a timber floor or into the garage adds work, so we'll check what's under the floor first.
What's the best benchtop for a laundry?
Laminate and porcelain both handle water, detergent and wet baskets well. Timber looks warm but needs sealing and wiping, especially beside the tub.
How do I stop condensation building up in the laundry?
A vented dryer pushes warm, damp air into the room, so it needs a window open or a vent kit to the outside. Heat pump and condenser dryers keep the moisture in. An exhaust fan helps too, especially in a laundry with no window.
What size laundry tub do I need?
A deep tub is best for soaking clothes and filling a mop bucket. If space is tight, a smaller tub set into the bench still works, as long as the tap is tall enough to get a bucket under.
Should I tile the laundry walls?
Behind the tub at least, where water splashes every day. Tiling the rest of the walls is up to you. Paint is fine anywhere the water doesn't reach.
Can I add a toilet to my laundry?
Often, yes, especially in older houses where the laundry sits in the lean-to beside the bathroom and the pipes are already close by. It needs its own drain, a waterproofed floor and a door that closes it off.
