Home Improvement Today?

He was just kidding and that pic is looking back towards Vancouver and the mainland of North America from the islands west of Vancouver

 

Nope, its true. I saw it on the internet, and wikileaks broke the code on secret gov't documents that verify it.

Installing laundry room cabinets at my house , doors will go on tomorrow , I'll add a finished pic then

 

Christ. That's a laundry. Mine is a broom closet. I want to push out that end of the house, maybe push a fridge alcove into the space to gain more counter/cabinet space in the kitchen, have a well-planned laundry with big-ass cabinets/mud room setup that can handle heavy traffic into the back yeard/patio from the kitchen, better entry to basement. And I want a pony.

 

This room is kinda a mud room / utility room as well . It's the exterior door to our basement

 

Gables and fillers fitted , doors on and adjusted

 

looks good

 

Thanks

Wife needs to pick the tops and sink and I'm going to hook up the washer and dryer

 

nice job Oz.

 

Thanks Susan , pretty happy with how it turned out

 

...to your fancy dryer box.

 

with inline lint trap and remote washer water shut offs

 

What do you mean by remote? Are they inside the cabinets above?

Now I have to post my home-made "dryer box: not an inch to spare model"

 

You see the flush mounted plywood box with the bibs and the drain ? Then about 16" above that there are 2 stub outs ?

The stub outs are a remote shut off for the hot and cold water , the hoses from the washer connect to the regular bibs behind the machine and the remote shut off handles are accessible above the machine

 

Yeah I couldn't see what that was too well. So just cleaner-looking, higher valves that are easy to access up above the back of the machines?

 

Yep

You're supposed to turn off the supply to the washing machine between uses although not many people bother to do it

 

LOL yeah wut. The things we are supposed to do....

I thought about one of those automatic shutoffs that senses a sudden drop in pressure. But I could barely connect shit in there as it was. In an ideal world, that whole back area of the house will be remodeled and expanded, so I am not going to sweat details like that for now.

 

I do and my sister used to laugh at me Started doing it when the neighbors washer hose sprung a leak and flooded part of their house.... Although, I do need new carpet and the machine hoses are 17 years old
