Thank you so much!

Store looks great

Can you give a break down of the cost of the new machines? With financing details? Is there an additional fee for installation does the supplier offer this? Also did you face environmental fees from the gov since it's a new setup?

i like ur laundromat fit out.

Looking good!

Looks good. Is there a way to get better pricing from distributors. I got a qoute recently they are all in the same ballpark.

Where did you get the washing/drying machines from?

I wonder why laundromats are phasing out quarters? Also f in the chat for the top loaders. Though it's rather interesting that there's Huebsch stack washer & dryer combos, I've never seen ones of that brand before.

I believe most industries are eliminating cash all together. You can't go to a sporting event or a concert and pay cash now. People who come in understand this, and people are happy they don't have to lug around quarters. Yes on the stackable we tried it because this store is small, but I am not too impressed. I know we won't install these in any other store.

Looks amazing. Congrats!! What is the thickness of vinyl floors.

Thanks for the compliment. I am not sure of the thickness, but it's LVT and we got the kind that glues down, or not.

Looks great! I love your flooring. Did you just install it over the tile or did you remove the tile first?

Hello, I was just curious where you get your bulkheads from?

Did you request those bulkheads custim made? How much did they cost? Who's your supplier? Awesome video. Thanks for showing the behind the scene

@splashemoutlaundromat

I did receive those bulkheads from high mark. I have since switched to freedom bulkheads from Paul Pettefer in Louisiana. These are very expensive, and his were like half the price, and probably build a little better. Not too sure of the cost you will have to get that through your distributor.

Love the 45 lb dryer s

Looks awesome, great job! Had a few questions: With the dryer wall packed so close together and being so large, is it difficult to pull a unit forward in order to access the back of the machine and do any necessary maintenance? Did you need any building permits ect. to perform this new buildout? How many different professionals did you need to hire? Im guessing: plumber, electrician, carpenter ect....

@splashemoutlaundromat

Жыл бұрын

We have over 2 feet behind the dryer wall. Plenty of space and easy to work on. Yes you need permits when you are altering the building. I used a plumber, electrician, and a general contractor to do drywall and floors, and paint.

Hope to God you moved that wall.

Well we in Germany and starting a Laundrymat service. What coin washers and dryer’s would you recommend to start out?

@splashemoutlaundromat

Жыл бұрын

That's a subjective question? I would find a distributor who sells equipment close to where you are located so if something were to break down you would have someone close buy to fix the machines.

Hopefully everybody is loving the new Coin-Free Laundry Center.

We were a bit nervous about that, but they are actually loving it. It's a pain in the but to load 7 dollars worth of quarters, when all you have to do is sit a card on there. Plus I can run promotions. Right now its double your money.

Was this laundromat free or did you purchase it from the previous operator? Could I do an hybrid of coin and laundroworks until the customers get used to the laundroworks system? Don't want to shock the current customers.

@splashemoutlaundromat

Ай бұрын

We built this from scratch, so far from free. We do a hybrid system in here because we had Spyder wash system and we didn't have a way of covering up the holes that system left so we opted to keep some coin drops in there. Actually our customers love the card system, and I would not do hybrid if it was possible, because they love the cards. I never get change out. There was pushback for about a week from very few customers, as they know that most things are becoming easier, and where else do you have to go and deal with quarters? Thanks for watching and good luck at your laundromat

RIP to Those Maytags

Wouldn’t you lose customers by removing coin option ?

I am looking at purchasing a facility where owner is retiring. Would you not want to stay with coin, for the benefit of now electronic trail of your profits?

@splashemoutlaundromat

3 ай бұрын

I dont want coin so I don't have to go in there every other day emptying coin boxes that get full rather quick. Also, changer problems constantly. If I had one laundromat it wouldnt be so bad I suppose, but after having card we will never go back.

Generous use of space. Nice looking interior. People will be comfortable and relaxed. More likely to come back.

Mats are way too expensive for the small ROI.

Sell the old maytags for good price??

Yes, the laundromat was finished, but the signs were not. I believe I have a post of the signage, and I’ll go get some more video.

It kinda pisses me off that you built that place in a month. I've been working on my laundromat for 7 months, and all the subcontractors have been screwing around and wasting time every step of the way. If I had a dollar for every time I have heard the words "NEXT WEEK', I'd have a lot of dollars. Of course, I can't just throw money at it until it is done like you, I have had to half-ass and cheap-ass the project every step of the way. So good job, I guess. If I am lucky, I will be open by the end of March. I wanted to be open by Halloween!

And this is why i won’t pay a contractor one penny until they are completely finished with the job. If they don’t have money for materials, then I won’t do business with them. There is no incentive for the contractors to finish if you keep paying them along the way. Believe me, we learned the hard way. If I was in your position, I would give them a deadline, and if they don’t agree, then i would cut my losses and get someone else in there that can complete the job. Good luck.
