Utility spaces: planning for everyday life

Utility spaces: planning for everyday life

Good utility spaces supports a workable cleaning and laundry routine. Start with how the room is used now and how those needs may change.

Record machine dimensions, hose routes and service requirements. Plan sorting, drying and cleaning-product storage without obstructing equipment access.

Bring a list of must-haves, a rough budget and any existing items you plan to retain. Review the room as a whole before selecting individual products. In the estimator, assign optional elements to the relevant room and check that they do not duplicate a theme package.

Confirm the cabinet manufacturer permits the proposed location and ventilation. Plumbing modifications require a separate approved scope.

SMARTY INTERIORS provides consultation and managed delivery against an approved scope. Request a measured survey, drawings and an itemised bill of quantities. The starting package is INR 9,00,000 per 400 sq ft plus estimated GST; successive theme tiers are approximately 17.5% higher. Final materials, quantities, tax and delivery dates require review. An estimate does not reserve labour or authorize payment.
