Reliable. Trusted. O’Shea.
Your laundry might not be the most glamorous room in the home, but when it is designed well, it can make everyday life much easier.
A functional laundry helps keep washing, storage, cleaning products, linen, pet items, school uniforms and household jobs under control. Whether your current laundry feels cramped, outdated, poorly planned or simply does not work for your household anymore, O’Shea Trades can help you create a space that is practical, stylish and built for daily use.
O’Shea has been looking after Melbourne homes since 1978. As a family-owned business with licensed plumbers, electricians, builders, tilers and renovation trades, we bring together the team needed to manage your laundry renovation properly from start to finish.
From a simple refresh to a complete laundry redesign, we take the time to understand how you use the space and what would make life easier in your home.

A Laundry Designed around Real Life
Before anything is planned, quoted or locked in, we take the time to understand what you need from your laundry renovation.
For some families, the priority is more storage. For others, it may be better bench space, a larger trough, improved ventilation, room for appliances, better lighting, or a layout that makes washing and folding feel less chaotic.
We’ll talk through practical details such as:
-
How often the laundry is used
-
Whether you need space for a washer and dryer
-
Whether appliances will be side by side, stacked or concealed
-
Storage for linen, cleaning products and household items
-
Bench space for sorting and folding
-
Trough size and tapware options
-
Hanging rails or drying space
-
Ventilation and moisture control
-
Floor and wall finishes
-
Whether the laundry connects to a bathroom, mudroom, garage or outdoor area
-
Your preferred style, materials and budget
A well-planned laundry should feel easy to use, simple to clean and suited to the rhythm of your household.

Laundry Renovation Options Melbourne
Every laundry renovation is different. Some homes need a simple update. Others need better cabinetry, improved storage or a complete redesign. O’Shea can help you choose the right level of renovation for your home.
Laundry Refresh
A laundry refresh is ideal if the layout works, but the space looks tired or outdated.
This may include replacing the trough, upgrading tapware, adding new tiles, improving lighting, replacing cabinetry handles, updating flooring or creating a cleaner, more modern finish.
It is a practical option for homeowners who want the laundry to feel fresher without completely rebuilding the space.

Functional Laundry Upgrade
A functional upgrade is ideal if your laundry needs to work harder.
This may include more storage, overhead cupboards, tall cupboards for brooms and mops, better appliance positioning, improved bench space, a larger trough, hanging rails, open shelving, better ventilation or additional power points.
This is a great option for busy households who need the laundry to support daily routines.

Complete Laundry Redesign
A complete redesign is best when the current layout no longer works.
This may involve relocating plumbing, changing appliance positions, redesigning cabinetry, improving access, creating a European-style laundry, adding mudroom storage, or transforming the laundry into a more polished and practical utility space.

Functionality Meets Style
A laundry can be practical without feeling plain.
Modern laundry renovations can include beautiful cabinetry, stone-look benchtops, stylish splashbacks, feature tiles, brushed nickel or matte black tapware, integrated hampers, concealed appliances, timber-look finishes and smart storage solutions.
The key is balancing style with everyday usability.
We can help you choose finishes that suit the rest of your home while also standing up to moisture, cleaning products, heavy use and regular foot traffic.
Good laundry design may include:
-
Deep drawers for easy access
-
Overhead cupboards for storage
-
Tall cupboards for vacuum cleaners, brooms and mops
-
Pull-out hampers
-
Open shelving for baskets
-
Hanging rails for air drying
-
Durable benchtops
-
Easy-clean splashbacks
-
Water-resistant flooring
-
Proper ventilation
-
Practical lighting
-
Power points where you actually need them
The result is a laundry that looks good, works hard and makes everyday jobs feel more organised.
