Creating a laundry area in the bathroom may seem like a daunting task, but it can be a great way to make use of the available space in your home. If you are looking for a convenient and efficient way to do your laundry, a laundry area in your bathroom can be an ideal solution. Don't worry whether your bathroom is large or small, there are many solutions to help you design and organise it. The key is to optimise your space while gaining practicality for everyday use. In this article, we will look at the different steps to follow to create a laundry area in your bathroom.

First, assess the space available
The first step is to assess the space available in your bathroom to determine if it is large enough to accommodate a washing machine and dryer. You should also consider the space needed to store laundry products and accessories.
Once you have determined that your bathroom can accommodate a washer and dryer, it is time to choose the appliances. Choose washers and dryers that use less water and electricity to reduce their impact on your energy bill.
Once you have chosen the appliances, you will need to install them. If you are not comfortable with electrical installation, it is recommended that you call in a professional to ensure that everything is installed correctly and safely.

Add storage space
It is important to have enough storage space for laundry products and accessories. You can add shelves, cupboards or cabinets to store all your laundry items in one convenient place. We recommend that you use wall-mounted shelves or storage units. At VASCOPLAN, we offer a wide range of solid surface storage units that will fit perfectly in your room and make it easy to organise your cleaning products without wasting space. So you can store and use your washing powder and clothes pegs very easily, within easy reach. If you prefer a more minimalist approach, opt for wall-mounted storage units with a folding door. This way, everything will be perfectly stored and sheltered.
The dryer is an indispensable element in a laundry room, but it is often considered cumbersome, especially in a small bathroom. That's why it's a good idea to install wall-mounted dryers made of Solid Surface. This way, you won't lose any space in your room, which will make the job much easier.
Create a workspace
A practical work area can also be added to make it easier to fold clothes and deal with stains. You can install a Solid Surface countertop, thanks to its antibacterial properties, ease of maintenance and non-porous surface. This makes it very easy to keep the countertop in perfect condition and it will not deteriorate over time, even with the use of aggressive products.
A custom-made worktop to fit your washing machine is an excellent idea to optimise your space. It is also possible to build a vanity unit with a dedicated space for the washing machine to maximise the use of the space. For any customised project, we are at your disposal to help you realise your ideas.
The installation of a Solid Surface pedestal washbasin, also known as a totem, can help you save space. This narrow, high washbasin will not take up much space. There are models with integrated shelves, which will also give you extra storage space.
The laundry basket is often an unsightly feature in a bathroom and can take up unnecessary space. If you have enough space, it may be worthwhile to have a bespoke piece of furniture made in which you can easily conceal your laundry bin, allowing you to maximise the use of the bathroom space.

Make sure everything is well ventilated
When installing appliances in your bathroom, make sure there is adequate ventilation to prevent moisture build-up. Good ventilation also prevents the formation of mould and unpleasant odours.
In conclusion, creating a laundry area in your bathroom can be a great way to make use of the available space in your home and make your life more convenient and easier. By following the steps mentioned above, you can turn your bathroom into a multifunctional and efficient space for doing your laundry.
