A utility room is a great addition to the home and if you are considering extending then a utility room not only helps to improve the way you use your home but also gives you that extra space in the kitchen.
It is a space that has a range of uses, and when you are designing a utility room you want to make sure that you are getting the most out of the space.
Whilst a utility room is connected to the kitchen, it makes the two spaces separate and enables you to have that divide between the two rooms. For example, if you want to cook and someone else wants to put a load of washing on, then this is much easier and can be done without one getting under the other’s feet!
It also means that you have the space for more storage and more useful appliances. If you want to get clothes dried quickly for example a tumble dryer is what you want. However there is not always space to have one in a smaller kitchen, but with a utility room integrated tumble dryers like this https://www.wellingtonshomeelectrical.co.uk/laundry/tumble-dryers/integrated.html are ideal.
Another thing that a utility room does is keeps the dirty things out of the kitchen. If you want to store and clean dirty boots or have space for the dog to come in after a walk, then the utility room is a practical place to do this without having the mess in the kitchen.
