Laundries that are as beautiful as they are hard-working.
Custom laundry renovations across Sydney — smart storage, premium finishes and a layout designed to make everyday chores effortless.
A well-designed laundry is one of the quietest luxuries you can add to your home.
The laundry is one of the most-used rooms in the house and, for most Sydney homes, one of the least considered. At Vestbor Renovations we treat it with the same rigour as a kitchen or bathroom — because a beautifully designed, generously storage-planned laundry pays back every single week.
Whether we are converting a cramped 1970s laundry cupboard into a walk-in utility room, reworking a European-style laundry inside an apartment, or building a butler's-pantry-plus-laundry combination in a family home, our approach is the same: we start with how you actually do laundry, not with a floor plan.
How many loads a week? Do you air-dry, machine-dry or both? Do you fold in the laundry or in the bedroom? Do you need a dog wash, a sink deep enough for hand-washing knits, or a hidden hamper system? Those answers shape the joinery, appliance placement and finishes — and are the difference between a laundry that quietly disappears into the routine and one that constantly frustrates.
Every laundry we build features custom cabinetry, quality tapware, hard-wearing benchtops and proper ventilation. Nothing about it feels like a back-of-house afterthought.
Why homeowners choose us for laundry renovations.
Storage designed for real laundry
Hampers, drying rails, ironing boards, tall pantry storage and hidden pet-food drawers built into the joinery.
Custom joinery in every project
Made-to-measure cabinetry in 2-pack polyurethane, timber veneer or laminate — not off-the-shelf boxes forced to fit.
Hard-wearing surfaces
Stone or sintered benchtops and full-body porcelain floors that stand up to bleach, dyes and daily wet work.
Proper plumbing and ventilation
Waterproof-membrane wet zones, upgraded tapware and correctly sized exhaust so the room dries out fast.

Common mistakes homeowners make.
Treating the laundry as an afterthought
A poorly planned laundry frustrates you every week for the life of the home. It deserves the same design attention as any other room.
Skipping the ventilation upgrade
Without proper exhaust and dryer venting, moisture drifts into the ceiling and adjacent rooms — the leading cause of paint failure and mould.
Forgetting the fold zone
Even 900mm of clear bench next to the machines makes folding infinitely easier. It is one of the cheapest upgrades and the most appreciated.
Cheap tapware over a big sink
Laundry taps get worked hard. Solid brass tapware lasts decades; plated zinc pits and drips within a couple of years.
No dedicated hamper storage
Hampers on the floor make the room feel cluttered instantly. Design them in from day one.
Under-specifying the electrical
Modern washers, heat-pump dryers, feature lighting and a hardwired iron all need proper circuits and outlets in the right places.

What makes a laundry renovation worth doing?+
A laundry is one of the most-used rooms in the home, yet it is often overlooked. A well-designed laundry reduces daily friction, hides clutter, improves ventilation and adds value to the home. Custom joinery and durable surfaces make the space feel intentional rather than an afterthought.
Can you relocate my laundry to another part of the house?+
In most cases, yes. Relocating a laundry involves new plumbing, drainage, waterproofing, ventilation and electrical work. We assess feasibility during the consultation and provide a clear scope and breakdown of work required.
What is a European-style laundry?+
A European-style laundry is hidden behind full-height joinery in a hallway, bathroom or kitchen. It is a popular solution for apartments and smaller homes where a dedicated room is not available. Ventilation, access and plumbing must be carefully planned, which is why it is best done by a specialist team.
Do you convert existing laundries into European-style laundries?+
Yes — hiding a laundry behind full-height integrated joinery in a hallway, bathroom or kitchen is one of our most popular projects for apartments and smaller homes. It requires careful design for ventilation and access.
Can you build a combined laundry, pantry and mudroom?+
Absolutely. In fact, combining these functions into a single well-designed room is one of the smartest space upgrades you can make. We design each zone so it does its job without visual clutter.
Do you supply appliances or do I?+
Either. Most clients prefer we specify and install the appliances so warranty and installation are managed under one roof. We can also install client-supplied appliances.
Is waterproofing required in a laundry?+
Yes. Any room with plumbing and a floor waste requires certified waterproofing to AS 3740. We handle the membrane, inspection and certification as standard on every project.
How do I get started?+
