Default Relocating Washer/Dryer

The most difficult part will be the drain. You can do anything or have
anything done, the only thing is how much will it cost.

I would call a plumber and have them poke around and see what your options
are. Be prepared to allow the plumber to cut out sections of wall if
necessary to see where the pipes are running.

Anyway see where the drain can be moved to. Then after that, fairly easy to
move water lines. Electrical is easy.

So plumber, then electrician, then drywall person to fix walls. Maybe
carpenter to build some cabinets for you.

I recently bought a townhouse where the washer/dryer are in the
kitchen. My kitchen is tiny and I'm looking for some more space to
build a pantry. I'd like to move my washer/dryer into the coat
closet. The coat closet shares the same wall with the washer/dryer
now...

Is this something I can do myself? If so, any suggestions on how to
get started? And if not, who can I hire? Do I need to get a plumber
and an electrician?
