What drives a mudroom remodel cost

A mudroom remodel is carpentry-driven: the built-in bench, cubbies, and hooks are most of the budget, sitting on durable flooring that can take wet boots. Budget versions use freestanding furniture and a vinyl floor; high-end versions get custom floor-to-ceiling built-ins, tile, and sometimes a dog-wash station. Tile and built-ins are where the money goes, and both are worth it in this room.

  • ▸Relocating the entry door or adding a closet
