Hi Jack,

Putting est-ce que in front of a statement simply turns it into a question. No subjunctive is needed.

Take a look at the following Kwiziq lesson to show you other simple ways of asking questions in French.

I hope this helps!

I don't see why one would use the subjunctive. It's a simple question based on "Tu as rentré le linge," "You brought the laundry back in."
