Do I need a building permit for a closet?

• <div><p>You may need a building permit to add a closet, depending on the size and kind of work required to install it. The most likely scenario requiring a permit involves changing the structure of the house and performing electrical work for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/bright-ideas-closet-lighting.htm">closet lighting</a>. A permit can cost between $100 and $450. If you’re installing a smaller reach-in closet, a permit may not be required, but always check with your local municipality and consult a closet designer or builder.</p></div>

Q: Can I design my own closet?

• <div><p>You can design your own closet, but it&rsquo;s usually better to hire a professional to do the work for you. Not only will you get years of design experience to guide you toward the right layout and material choices, but you&rsquo;ll also only pay slightly more hiring a professional than you would creating your own plans and hiring a carpenter. A high-quality closet designer can provide insight into how to lay out your closet, and they may be able to find you a good deal on the carpentry or complete the work using an affordable, in-house team.</p></div>

Q: What makes a perfect laundry room?

• <div><p>The features you choose for your laundry room to make it perfect depend largely on how you'll use the space, the size of your family, and their laundry needs. A perfect laundry room will have ample storage space, a clothes washer and dryer that are large enough for your needs and have good convenience features, and enough room to move around and work with enough countertop space to make laundry chores as easy as possible. </p></div>

Q: How do you modernize an old-looking closet?

• <div><p>You can modernize an old-looking closet by just painting it, but beyond that, consider electric elements like recessed or accent lighting. If this is a large and deep closet, you can consider adding an island to the middle or a nice ottoman on a rug. Luxury closets will have even more items, like felt-lined drawers for watches and jewelry, in-wall safes, electronic shoe storage, or a tablet catalog of their items. </p></div>

Q: What is the least expensive room to remodel?

• <div><p>Bedrooms and living rooms generally cost the least to remodel. Of course, the project price will depend on what you're planning to do to the space and the cost of the materials you choose to incorporate. Prices are typically lower than those of other remodels because major plumbing, electrical, and HVAC work isn't often part of remodeling these rooms. </p></div>

The staff was very kind, and it was apparent that they were dog lovers. The space seemed a bit disorganized, though, and the checkout process took a long time. They listed a storage room as a "suite", which costs more, but it was no more than the size of a large closet and was not at all what...

I've used them two or three times. The experience has been good overall. The closet door didn't stay fixed and his explanation was that it was old, which I thought was lame. I will use them again. They are middle of the road price wise and they generally do a good job.
