Laundry

The dog wash has pull out steps so large dogs can get in the tub without the owners having to lift them. The dog wash also is used as the laundry's deep sink. Debbie Schwab Photography

Don't forget about your pets! This mudroom features a specially designated wash area for the homeowner's dogs so that cleaning off after playing outside by the water is quick and easy!

Before we redesigned the basement of this charming but compact 1950's North Vancouver home, this space was an unfinished utility room that housed nothing more than an outdated furnace and hot water tank. Since space was at a premium we recommended replacing the furnace with a high efficiency model and converting the hot water tank to an on-demand system, both of which could be housed in the adjacent crawl space. That left room for a generous laundry room conveniently located at the back entrance of the house where family members returning from a mountain bike ride can undress, drop muddy clothes into the washing machine and proceed to shower in the bathroom just across the hall.
