How much does a mudroom remodel cost?

Most mudroom projects in the Chicago suburbs run $8,000–$25,000+ depending on the size of the space, the amount of custom cabinetry and built-in lockers, flooring, and whether laundry or plumbing work is included. GS Construction provides a free, itemized estimate.

Can you combine my mudroom and laundry room?

Yes — combined mudroom/laundry rooms are one of our most popular requests. We plan cabinetry, folding counters, hanging space, utility sinks, and drop zones so the room handles both laundry and everyday entry clutter.

How long does a mudroom remodel take?

A typical mudroom or laundry/mudroom remodel takes 2–5 weeks depending on custom cabinetry lead times, tile work, and any plumbing or electrical changes. We give you a clear schedule before we start.

Do you build custom lockers and benches?

Yes. We build custom lockers, cubbies, bench seating, hooks, and cabinetry sized to your space and family — including pet stations, shoe storage, and charging drop zones.

Do mudroom projects need permits?

Simple built-ins and finishes usually do not, but adding or relocating plumbing (utility sink, washer) or electrical circuits typically requires permits. GS Construction handles any required permitting and inspections for you.

Expert Mudroom Remodeling Services

A mudroom is a small job, and small jobs are the ones people cut corners on. We measure how your family actually comes through the door — boots, backpacks, the dog leash, all of it — price the built-ins line by line like any other project, and build it with the same owner on site and the same written warranty as a full kitchen. Short job, same standard.

Scope: Entry, mudroom and laundry combinations
Common add-on: Built alongside a kitchen or addition
Permits: Handled where the scope requires them
Warranty: Workmanship, in writing

Ranges are typical for our Chicagoland projects — see full cost breakdowns. Your itemized estimate is free.

What We Offer

Built-in lockers & benches

Sized per person to what actually gets dropped at the door, with closed storage for the things that should not be on display.

Durable flooring

Tile and LVP chosen for salt, slush and dog traffic, detailed so water does not reach the subfloor.

Laundry integration

Combining entry and laundry where the layout supports it, including plumbing and venting relocation.

Coat, boot & sports storage

Hooks, cubbies, drying space and racking planned around the gear you own, not a showroom photo.

Lighting & power

Practical lighting plus outlets where phones, chargers and vacuums actually get used.

Garage & side-entry transitions

Doors, thresholds and steps made safe and weather-tight where the mudroom meets the outside.

Our Process

Process

The same six stages on every job — free in-home estimate through warranty.

Free in-home estimate

Greg or Patryk — the owners, not a salesperson — walk your space, take real measurements, and give you honest feedback on what your budget buys.

Itemized scope & contract

Labor, materials, demolition and disposal priced line by line, not one mystery number. Payment terms and warranty are in the written contract.

Design & selections

Bring your own designer, use our architects and designers, or choose everything yourself. Selections are scheduled ahead so lead times never stall the site.

Permits & scheduling

We pull and manage building, plumbing and electrical permits with your village — typically 1–2 weeks — and hand you a written schedule before demo day.

The build, owner-supervised

Long-standing trade partners working in sequence under daily owner supervision. Your client portal shows the schedule, change orders and current balance.

Walkthrough & warranty

We walk the finished job together, close out every punch-list item, hand over manufacturer paperwork, and your written workmanship warranty starts. Our commitment never expires.

What’s Included

Labor & installation we include

Demolition and framing modifications
Custom built-in cabinetry, benches and storage
Flooring and tile installation
Electrical and lighting work
Drywall, paint and finish carpentry
Final walkthrough, punch list and warranty paperwork

You supply / quoted separately

Finish materials — tile and flooring, lighting fixtures, hooks, hardware and any stone or countertop
Washer and dryer, where laundry is part of the scope

You choose and purchase the finish materials; we specify what is needed, schedule it against the build, and install it. Listed openly so nothing on your final invoice is a surprise.
