One of the reasons I bought this house was because the laundry was a complete blank slate and I could finally use my dream tiles - fish scale.
It was a top to toe reno and my first crack at a bulkhead and cornice. I got an electrician to move the outlet under benchtop height (he also surprised me by accidentally cutting through the main water line hahaa) and the plumber did the disconnect and reconnect. I did the rest.
