Laundromat Setup

The key to getting through the build-out or construction phase of your vended laundry project can be quite simple. Just hire an experienced and professional licensed general contractor like Domhorse who already had a couple of first-class laundromats under his belt. These days, most most good distributors have more than one of these individual among t h e i r s t a b l e .
Perhaps not surprisingly, I have met owners who, in an effort to save money, initially built their stores “on the cheap”, only to end up sending twice as much as they should have, correcting all of their mistakes. Some mistakes can be costly, while others not so much. However, they all add up, and that money can be used elsewhere. Also, the long-term effect of those buildout mistakes typically had a negative impact on the businesses.
An example of a simple but costly error is when an inexperienced contractor built a beautiful curtain wall, which hung from the ceiling down to the top of the dryers. The only problem was that the dryers had not yet been delivered and installed in their permanent places. The contractor didn’t realize the installation crew uses a special dolly to easily roll the dryers into place to minimize trauma on the machines, which adds about five inches to their height before settling back down. As a result, the machines were then too tall to set into place.
The owner was concerned about putting the dryers on the floor and sliding each one into place. There are 30 stack dryers and something could have gone wrong. Therefore, the curtain wall had to be partially dismantled and secured while the dryers were installed. As a result, a full day was wasted on that one mistake.

For example, one new owner built a large store with several washers but never applied for a new two-inch water line, which was absolutely necessary for his store. After three months of operation, he realized the reason his washer were taking so long to fill (or not completely filling at all) was the one-inch water line serving the b u i l d i n g .
