As your Columbus Ohio remodeling contractor, NJW, knows how important

special function rooms such as mud rooms are becoming. With winter around the corner, and mud, snow, and salt making its way indoors via our feet, they are returning as a high priority among homeowners.

Prized for organizing all manner of gear, from backpacks to tennis rackets, mudrooms also double as spaces for chores as diverse as doing laundry and potting plants. As we stated, they act as an intermediary between the dirt and germs that reside outside the house and the freshly swept and dusted surfaces inside.

With this resurgence, NJW, your custom home remodeling professionals, always take into account your needs as a family when doing a home addition. This might be an option you have thought about but weren’t sure how you can tie it in with your existing space. You can always tie in a mudroom to your laundry room, or home office/study room- then this drop zone keeps your other rooms exactly what they are supposed to be used for. Your kitchen is no longer a crash point for everybody!

We recommend you carefully consider how you’ll use it and how much square footage you can realistically allocate for it. For families with kids, more space might be needed with shelves for stashing school supplies and sports equipment off a side or back door may be in order.

The finishing materials you choose and extras you add also play a role in how the mudroom looks and functions over the long haul. Its highly trafficked floors, for instance, should be easy to mop and able to take a beating. And seating, whether built-in or freestanding, should be sized for all members of the house, ensuring comfortable shoe changing for adults and children. NJW will work alongside of you to assist with these decisions.

We take pride in tying a new home addition into your existing space. We want to ensure that it is seamless and looks like it has always been there. NJW has the best staff to handle your project!
