SFbay2008 asked:
My laundry is inside of a very old and poor bathroom. I plan to first move the laundry to garage and then have the bathroom remodeled with tub/shower separated, of cause wall/floor tiles. I’m not looking for luxury features just new/clean is enough. So how much will cost, like only more the laundry, and labor of the bathroom remodeling.
I’m in San Francisco Bay area, but any other area should also provide the ideal I believe.
Thanks,
Chuck

A lot of the cost is going to depend on whether or not you have water supply and drainage in your garage already. If you do, the cost of moving the laundry there will be minimal. If you don’t, it’s not going to be cheap, and you may even have to apply for permits to do it, since you’ll be installing new plumbing and connecting into the sewage line.
Yes, a great deal will be determined by existing plumbing, electrical etc. Amazing enough, in a client I just did, to move the W/D to the garage was $5000. Part was to run water & the drier has to vent to the outside. Same for the bathroom. You can get cheap materials (although you do get what you pay for) but labor (particularly in San Fran) will be high. If you move any electrical & plumbing, it will need a permit pulled as well. Be sure & get 3 estimates–the cheapest i snot always the best one either.
