Laundry Room Cabinet Solutions We Build

From compact closet laundry setups to full-sized laundry rooms, we design storage that fits your space and daily routine.

Over-Washer and Dryer Cabinets

The wall space above your washer and dryer is prime storage territory that most laundry rooms leave completely unused. We build upper cabinets that span the full width above your machines, providing enclosed storage for detergent, fabric softener, stain removers, and cleaning supplies. Adjustable shelves accommodate items of different heights. For front-loading machines, we also build a countertop surface over the units that serves as a folding station, with cabinets mounted above for a complete wall-to-wall system.

Pull-Out Hampers and Sorting Systems

Built-in hamper cabinets eliminate the need for freestanding laundry baskets taking up floor space. We build pull-out hamper systems with two or three compartments for sorting whites, darks, and delicates. The hampers are concealed behind cabinet doors that match the rest of your laundry room cabinetry, keeping dirty laundry out of sight. Tilt-out models are also available for narrower spaces where a full pull-out drawer would not fit. Removable canvas or mesh liners make it easy to carry sorted loads directly to the machine.

Linen Storage and Utility Towers

Tall tower cabinets built into the laundry room provide vertical storage for towels, bed linens, cleaning supplies, and household overflow. These full-height cabinets use the room's vertical space efficiently and keep everything behind closed doors for a clean, organized appearance. We build towers with a combination of shelves and drawers so larger items like comforters and extra pillows fit on upper shelves while smaller supplies are organized in drawers below. Adjustable shelving lets you reconfigure as your storage needs change over time.

Why Custom Laundry Room Cabinets Matter

Every Inch of Space Put to Work

Laundry rooms in Arlington homes are often small, awkwardly shaped, or squeezed into hallway closets and basement corners. Stock cabinets rarely fit these spaces without leaving gaps or blocking access to machines and plumbing. Custom cabinets are built to your exact dimensions, which means no wasted space above the machines, no unusable gaps between cabinets and walls, and storage that reaches all the way to the ceiling. In a room where square footage is limited, making every inch count is not optional, it is essential.

A Laundry Room That Stays Organized

When everything has a designated place, the laundry room stays organized instead of becoming a catchall for cleaning supplies, tools, and random household items. Built-in hamper cabinets keep dirty laundry sorted and hidden. Dedicated shelves for detergent and supplies keep the countertop clear. Linen towers give towels and sheets a proper home instead of being stacked on top of the dryer. The result is a room that actually supports your daily routine instead of adding to the chaos.

Built to Handle Moisture and Daily Use

Laundry rooms generate more moisture than almost any room in the house. Steam from the dryer, humidity from wet clothes, and occasional splashes from the wash mean that standard cabinet materials will swell, peel, and degrade over time. We build laundry room cabinets with moisture-resistant plywood and water-resistant finishes that are specifically designed for this environment. The result is cabinetry that looks and performs as well in year ten as it did on installation day, backed by our lifetime craftsmanship warranty.

Laundry Room Cabinet Questions from Arlington Homeowners

Can you build cabinets around stacked washer and dryer units?

Yes. Stacked units are common in Arlington condos and townhomes where floor space is limited. We design cabinet systems that surround stacked machines, with upper cabinets beside and above the unit and narrow tower storage on either side. Every design accounts for the access you need for loading, unloading, and machine maintenance including dryer vent access.

Will the cabinets interfere with my plumbing or venting?

No. We measure the exact location of your water supply lines, drain connections, and dryer vent during the design phase. Cabinets are built with access panels or clearances wherever needed so you can reach shut-off valves and connections without removing cabinetry. Nothing is blocked or made inaccessible by the installation.

How long does laundry room cabinet installation take?

Most laundry room cabinet installations are completed in one to two days. Smaller projects with a countertop and a few upper cabinets can be done in a single day. Larger systems with full-height towers, hamper cabinets, and a complete countertop surface may take two days. We do not need to disconnect your washer or dryer in most cases, so you can continue doing laundry throughout the process.

Can I get a folding counter installed over my front-load machines?

Absolutely. A countertop over front-loading washer and dryer units is one of our most popular laundry room features. We build these at a comfortable working height with a durable, moisture-resistant surface. The countertop spans both machines and gives you a dedicated folding area that keeps clean laundry off the floor and away from lint and dust.

What finishes are best for laundry room cabinets?

We recommend painted finishes with a water-resistant topcoat or melamine surfaces for laundry rooms. Both options resist moisture, are easy to wipe clean, and hold up well in humid conditions. White and light gray are the most popular color choices because they brighten what is often a room without natural light, but we offer the full range of colors and can match your laundry room cabinets to the rest of your home.

How much do custom laundry room cabinets cost?

Custom laundry room cabinets typically cost $4,000 to $12,000 depending on the size of the room and the features included. A basic set of upper cabinets and a folding counter above a front-loading washer and dryer usually starts around $4,000 to $6,000. A full laundry room buildout with upper and lower cabinets, a folding counter, pull-out hamper drawers, a utility sink cabinet, broom closet, and ironing board enclosure typically runs $8,000 to $12,000. We build all laundry room cabinets with moisture-resistant materials and finishes that hold up to the heat and humidity that laundry rooms produce.

How long does a laundry room cabinet installation take?

A custom laundry room cabinet installation typically takes 3 to 5 weeks from design approval to completion. Fabrication runs 2 to 4 weeks. On-site installation takes 1 to 2 days for most laundry rooms. Projects that involve adding a utility sink or relocating plumbing may require an additional day and coordination with a plumber.
