After nearly three weeks, my severely outdated laundry has been completely renovated. Here's what I did, and how much it cost:
- tore down panelling on walls and removed old cabinets- $0
- created a wall to cover exposed pipes- $0
- repaired walls and ceiling- $150 (hired someone)
- painted walls and ceiling- $60
- purchased and installed cabinets- $140
- purchases new dryer vent- $30
The entire room was completed for under $400, which I think was good. The professional I hired to smooth out the walls was well worth the money. We now have a much more functional room that is more spacious, has more and better storage, and just looks more inviting. I was also happy to replace the old metal foil dryer vent with a rigid metal one that puts the dryer closer to the wall.

How did you rip out a wall and put up a new one for free?
Didn't the dump charge you for disposal and where did you get the new materials for the wall?
Inquiring minds need to know.
I have to finish the basement next and have to tear down some walls and create some others.
Warm regards,
