utility room fitting
A small utility room fitted to make the most of every centimetre
There never seems to be anywhere to put the washing machine, the tumble dryer and the basket of ironing, so it all lands in the kitchen instead. A small utility room gives all of that its own space, tucked away where it belongs, so the kitchen can just be the kitchen again.
Fitting one into a tight spot feels like a puzzle. Where does the plumbing go, will the units actually fit, and is there still room for a worktop alongside the appliances? It should not take weeks of measuring and guessing to work out whether a utility room will fit your space.
Someone who has done this before
We understand how fiddly a small utility room can be to plan, especially when every centimetre has to earn its place. Our team coordinates the plumbing, electrics and lighting, the flooring, and the wall and floor tiling, along with fitted cupboards and work surfaces built to suit the room, so it is treated as one job rather than a string of separate trades.
How it works
01
Measure and plan
We look at the space you have and work out a layout that fits cupboards, a worktop and room for your washing machine and dryer.
02
First fix
Plumbing, electrical installations and lighting go in, along with any flooring and tiling the room needs.
03
Fit and finish
Cupboards and work surfaces are fitted last, and everything is checked so the room is ready to use.

Once it is done
Once it is finished, washing and drying have a proper home, the mess stays out of the kitchen, and there is a worktop for folding laundry instead of balancing it on the counter. Leave things as they are and that pile of washing keeps drifting back into the kitchen every week.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will a small utility room actually fit a washing machine and dryer side by side?
It depends on the space available, which is why we measure up first and work out a layout that makes the most of what you have, often stacking appliances or using slimline units where space is tight.
Can you fit a sink and worktop into a small utility room as well as the appliances?
Yes, where space allows we plan in a worktop and small sink alongside the washing machine and dryer, so there is somewhere to fold laundry or wash things by hand.
Does the plumbing need to be moved if I am converting an existing space?
Often some plumbing work is needed to bring water and drainage to the new spot, which is why it is planned in alongside the electrics, flooring and tiling as part of the same job.
How long does fitting a small utility room usually take?
It depends on the space and how much plumbing, electrical and tiling work is involved, which we talk through with you once we have measured up and agreed the layout.
Can you add storage above the appliances in a small utility room?
Yes, fitted cupboards can usually be built above and around the washing machine and dryer to make use of the full height of the room, not just the floor space.
