Don't make the same mistake over and over again. Don't settle for washing machines. This is how you should do it.
[Is that platform really that good? It can be said that everyone loves it and flowers bloom wherever they see it]
This topic has been discussed before, but many friends said that it is not comprehensive enough, just like chicken soup: I drank so much but still couldn't live a good life. So, today, I will give you a lot of dry goods from the early water and electricity positioning to the later stage of table construction to tile laying and washing machine placement.

Because everyone has different understandings of this platform, the final products will be very different.

Some people do this, which is wrong. In fact, the purpose of making a washing machine stand is to make this position more integrated. Doing this will make it messy. See: you can't draw a gourd according to the gourd, and the person riding on the horse may not be Tang Monk, but a monkey.
Don’t change the designer’s plan casually. I don’t have the patience to convince you. I like to do nothing and rule by my own will. Anyway, my users all do it according to what I do, so you can imagine the result.

This is closer, but the specifications of the tiles are different. Today, Ikea will unify them here: the countertops and the front and side faces of the vertical walls are all paved with 100*100 mm small tiles. It can be said that this is the best effect, mainly because it looks detailed. There is also a material on the surface that is paved with 25 mm square mosaics.

△It basically looks like this after it’s done.

For something like this, the bricks are arranged in one go from beginning to end. This sentence is the key point. Remember, don't make any changes. If the position is too small, the changes will cause chaos. When it is necessary to change, talk about changes. When it is not necessary, changes will be superfluous.
The empty space height of the table above the washing machine is usually 900 mm. It is best to check the washing machine you want to buy in advance. The size will be more suitable and the effect will be better. Don't be bothered by it. More communication in the early stage will reduce rework in the later stage.
In fact, a platform with a finished thickness of 10 cm is built next to the washbasin, and small bricks are also pasted on the surface. This is to solve the problem that if you do not enclose the balcony, rainwater will flow back into the storage cabinet. Strictly speaking, as long as there is a cabinet on the balcony, there should be a platform underneath for the safest and most waterproof purpose.

The floor plan is as follows: the effective space occupied by the washing machine and wash basin is approximately 1.4 meters. If the size is smaller than this, it would be a bit cramped to put a wash basin in addition to the washing machine.

This is the direction of the water and electrical circuits. It is explained why there is only one floor drain in the picture (the floor drain can be located in the center of the sink, on the same center line as the hot and cold water supply, and the height of the hot and cold water near the water supply can be 400 mm).
So where is the floor drain of the washing machine? The washing machine and the wash basin share a floor drain, and also share a cold water. The advantage of this is that the water supply and drainage of the washing machine are convenient for switching on and off and maintenance, and it saves materials. If the wash basin and the washing machine coexist, the shared floor drain must be placed on the wash basin side, otherwise it will be very troublesome when you install the washing machine. Don't blame me if you can't remember it^_^^_^.
The power supply of the washing machine should be placed within easy reach to cut off the power supply, and should be located away from the water inlet, with a height of no more than 600 meters from the ground.

This is basically a platform cast on site. The method is: use an impact drill to drill holes on the wall where it needs to be fixed, with a depth of about 15 cm. Then insert the 10# steel bars, fix them with cement slurry as pre-embedded, and then tie the horizontal steel bars firmly with wire. Many bricklayers can do it, it's not complicated. The most important thing is the coordination of water and electricity, as well as the thickness of the platform and the tiles.

The purpose of showing you this picture is to see the shelf under the washing machine. Why is there a shelf there? Maybe students will encounter this problem when installing it in the future. It is caused by the washing machine not sharing the drain of the washbasin. Because the height of the washing machine from the ground is limited, and the drain is under the washing machine, it cannot be installed without a shelf to lift it. Of course, the possibility of installing a shelf for leveling is not ruled out.

This is the final picture of the correct washing machine table. It can be selected above the wash basin or below the wash basin. In fact, in this case, the power supply of the washing machine can be considered to be installed on the wall shared with the wash basin, inside the storage cabinet. This makes it convenient for maintenance and power off. At the same time, the size of the table is more in line with the size of the washing machine.
Of course, students can also draw inferences from this example and there are many methods. The following ones are for students to refer to.


The countertop made in this way has few details and is not very harmonious with European style, food and pastoral style. Therefore, if it is European, American or pastoral style decoration, the countertop is cement masonry with tiled surface for the best effect!!!
