Mudroom and laundry cabinetry takes daily wear that kitchen cabinets never see: wet shoes, spilled detergent, and a washer running next to it most days of the week. Waco Custom Cabinets builds cabinetry for these rooms with that use in mind, not off-the-shelf shelving that wasn't built for moisture.
We size the layout around your actual appliances and storage needs, whether that's a drop zone by the back door or a laundry room that needs a folding counter and hamper storage built in. A lot of Waco homes, especially older ones near the Brazos corridor, were never built with a dedicated mudroom at all.

FAQs
Mudroom and Laundry Cabinetry FAQs
How much does mudroom and laundry cabinetry cost in Waco?
Most projects run from around $1,200 for simple hook and cubby walls up to $12,000 for a full mudroom build-out with bench seating and cabinetry. The exact number depends on cabinet run length and features like a folding counter.
How long does a mudroom or laundry cabinetry project take?
From design approval to finished installation, expect roughly 3-4 weeks for the build plus one to two days for installation. The measure and design visit itself usually happens the same day you call.
Do I need a permit for mudroom and laundry cabinetry?
Cabinetry installed around existing appliance hookups usually doesn't need a permit. If you're relocating plumbing or adding a new electrical circuit for the washer or dryer, check with the City of Waco first.
Is DIY mudroom cabinetry a good idea?
Simple hooks, shelves, or pre-made storage benches are fine to install yourself. Custom cabinetry built to fit an exact wall, especially with plumbing nearby, is better left to a crew that can build to the actual dimensions.
When should I call a pro for this kind of project?
Call when your current storage can't keep up with daily use, when shelving has started to swell from moisture, or when you're ready to turn an unused closet or corner into a real mudroom.
What affects pricing the most?
Cabinet run length, finish choice, and added features like a folding counter or built-in bench move the price more than anything else.
What's typically included in a mudroom or laundry cabinetry project?
Cabinet boxes, doors and drawer fronts, hardware, a moisture-resistant finish, and installation. Bench seating and folding counters are usually optional add-ons.
How do I prepare my home before the crew arrives?
Clear out any existing shelving or furniture in the space and have your washer/dryer dimensions ready if those appliances are staying in place.
