Bathroom and laundry area needs updates and appliances

13 years ago

My bathroom is in need of remodeling as it has holes in the wall and where the medicine cabinet used to be. Also, the sink and cabinet are really old. We are in need of a bigger washer/ dryer and area for it as we are a family of 6 and the washer unit we have is a stackable suitable for one person. Help! We have no money to do any of this. The electric bill is going up because we have to dry the loads 2 and 3 times!

I do. Here are some to start. If I pulled out the cabinet, the square hole in the wall is the length of the wall. I couldn't get the cabinet out though. All of the sheet rock needs replacing and I think the wood where the medicine cabinet was is getting wet as it is exposed. The washer/ dryer is in the kitchen/ front room. It would be beneficial to expand on it and get a bigger washer and dryer to accommodate the family. Ultimately I would love to move it to the other side of the front room, but that would entail running a pipe and redoing the tile floor. A girl can dream.
