When i was growing up we lived ian neighborhood where everyone had the laundry in the basement because the homes were built in the 40s i think some people were just glad to have a place in the basement for it.
Main floor laundry vs basement.
For convenience on the main floor anywhere off the kitchen makes sense as does a mudroom or off the garage.
This type of flooring is glued down to the laundry room subfloor in large 6 to 13 wide sections which makes for fewer seams than lvt flooring but also a more difficult do it yourself.
A laundry chute could cut down on some of those trips.
Upstairs laundry rooms.
If your home has two or more stories then putting your laundry room on the main floor off the kitchen means that you re a flight of stairs away from the bedrooms and hampers on a busy laundry day that means a lot of trips up and down.
But you ll still have to carry the clothes back up.
Don t put the laundry too close to sleeping areas.
On a second floor try to position it so it backs onto a bathroom.
Should it be part of the mudroom remain in the basement or move to the garage the second floor or the main floor while there s no prevailing trend regarding where it should be situated there are a number of reasons to consider a main level laundry room.
And these days the debate surrounding the laundry room is location.
The noise will keep you awake.
