1
00:00:01,266 --> 00:00:02,800
Every forever home
has its own story
2
00:00:02,867 --> 00:00:04,266
and we can't wait
to help tell it.
3
00:00:04,266 --> 00:00:06,467
It's been in my family,
you know, for generations.
4
00:00:06,467 --> 00:00:08,200
Let me smash! Let me smash!
5
00:00:08,266 --> 00:00:09,367
[man 1] This is
the next step.
6
00:00:09,367 --> 00:00:11,300
[woman 1] The next chapter
in my life.
7
00:00:11,367 --> 00:00:13,166
-[woman 2] Hiyah!
-[man 2] Love it. Whoo!
8
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:15,367
[Drew] After you.
9
00:00:15,367 --> 00:00:16,467
Welcome home.
10
00:00:16,500 --> 00:00:18,066
-[woman 3] Oh, my goodness!
-[man 3] Look at this!
11
00:00:18,066 --> 00:00:18,900
Oh, wow.
12
00:00:19,367 --> 00:00:20,266
[man 4] Let's go!
13
00:00:20,266 --> 00:00:21,400
It feels like home.
14
00:00:21,467 --> 00:00:22,667
Argh!
15
00:00:23,767 --> 00:00:25,367
Come around
for a group hug.
16
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:36,266
[Drew] Linda really made
the sacrifice
for our relationship
17
00:00:36,266 --> 00:00:38,367
because my commute
was traveling all around
the country.
18
00:00:38,367 --> 00:00:40,900
I think that's 'cause
she married you.
That's definitely a sacrifice.
19
00:00:40,967 --> 00:00:41,867
[Drew] Yeah, that is, yeah.
20
00:00:42,967 --> 00:00:44,300
Location. Location. Location.
21
00:00:44,300 --> 00:00:45,900
I know that was, kind of,
the tipping point
for these guys.
22
00:00:45,967 --> 00:00:49,066
They wanted to make sure
the commute
was gonna be reasonable.
23
00:00:49,066 --> 00:00:50,567
Brian and Lily found
the perfect house.
24
00:00:50,567 --> 00:00:51,667
[Jonathan] That's
a beautiful spot.
25
00:00:52,767 --> 00:00:54,166
We are newlyweds.
26
00:00:54,166 --> 00:00:56,767
We got married
about two months ago.
27
00:00:56,767 --> 00:00:59,066
Lily and I met online
and clicked right away.
28
00:00:59,066 --> 00:01:00,000
[Lily] We shared a love
of music and travel.
29
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,266
[Lily] We shared a love
of music and travel.
30
00:01:01,266 --> 00:01:04,000
[Brian] I proposed
on the beach in Maui.
31
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,266
As I was proposing,
a giant sea tortoise came out
of the ocean.
32
00:01:08,266 --> 00:01:11,066
[Lily] Both of us have jobs
that brought us to LA.
33
00:01:11,066 --> 00:01:13,467
I'm a musician with
the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
34
00:01:13,467 --> 00:01:17,200
This house is 10 to 15 minutes
from both of my two work
venues,
35
00:01:17,266 --> 00:01:19,867
which in LA is worth
its weight in gold.
36
00:01:19,867 --> 00:01:23,667
Currently in our house
with us is our beautiful pup,
Moose.
37
00:01:23,667 --> 00:01:26,367
We've had him four years now.
38
00:01:26,367 --> 00:01:29,266
[Brian] We just feel
like it's somewhere we can
set down roots
39
00:01:29,266 --> 00:01:30,000
and raise a couple kids,
maybe, down the road.
40
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,867
and raise a couple kids,
maybe, down the road.
41
00:01:31,867 --> 00:01:33,800
But the layout
is not very functional.
42
00:01:33,867 --> 00:01:36,200
I need to get
into the dishwasher.
43
00:01:36,266 --> 00:01:38,000
[Lily] It is way too small.
44
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,200
Everything is builder grade
in finish.
45
00:01:40,266 --> 00:01:42,700
[Brian] The cabinet faces
look nice but the actual boxes
46
00:01:42,767 --> 00:01:44,767
on the interior
are falling apart.
47
00:01:44,767 --> 00:01:46,867
I would say it tests
our patience daily.
48
00:01:46,867 --> 00:01:48,867
[Brian] There's a lot
of emotional attachment
to the house.
49
00:01:48,867 --> 00:01:52,367
We've had a lot of big life
milestones here together.
50
00:01:52,367 --> 00:01:54,867
And so, the space
means a lot to us.
51
00:01:54,867 --> 00:01:57,667
[Lily] We even delayed
our honeymoon so we could take
on this renovation.
52
00:01:57,667 --> 00:02:00,000
With a little bit of love,
we feel like we absolutely
can raise a family here
53
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,367
With a little bit of love,
we feel like we absolutely
can raise a family here
54
00:02:02,367 --> 00:02:05,967
and really, really make
this our true forever,
forever, forever home.
55
00:02:09,100 --> 00:02:12,066
I am officially jealous
of Lily and Brian's view.
Look at that.
56
00:02:12,066 --> 00:02:13,600
[Jonathan] They picked
the right spot.
This is gorgeous.
57
00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:15,266
[knocks on door]
58
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,266
-[Drew and Jonathan] Hello!
-Hello.
59
00:02:18,266 --> 00:02:20,500
We're selling
door-to-door renovations.
Interested?
60
00:02:20,567 --> 00:02:23,266
-Absolutely, come on in.
-Yeah, please come on in.
61
00:02:23,266 --> 00:02:24,266
-How you guys doing?
-[Brian] Good.
62
00:02:24,266 --> 00:02:25,200
Good to see you guys.
63
00:02:25,266 --> 00:02:27,200
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
wowie, wow.
64
00:02:27,266 --> 00:02:28,266
Look at that view.
65
00:02:28,266 --> 00:02:30,000
That view is incredible.
66
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:30,400
That view is incredible.
67
00:02:30,467 --> 00:02:32,100
[Brian] This is definitely
why we bought the house.
68
00:02:32,166 --> 00:02:34,600
This was the first thing
we saw when we walked in
69
00:02:34,667 --> 00:02:37,767
-and we knew this, uh,
this could be the home for us.
-Yeah.
70
00:02:37,767 --> 00:02:41,400
Do you ever think
of just getting a zipline that
goes straight down the canyon?
71
00:02:41,467 --> 00:02:42,367
Every day.
72
00:02:42,367 --> 00:02:44,200
I can see
how you woo Lily.
73
00:02:44,266 --> 00:02:46,867
-Just over here,
you turn on the fireplace.
-[Lily] Right.
74
00:02:46,867 --> 00:02:50,467
You have the view, you play
some low, sexy,
romantic music.
75
00:02:50,467 --> 00:02:52,100
[Brian and Lily laugh]
76
00:02:52,100 --> 00:02:54,500
Now, when you're not
performing for work,
what's your go to?
77
00:02:54,567 --> 00:02:56,400
Is it, like, heavy metal
or something...
78
00:02:56,467 --> 00:02:59,967
He was in a rock band
when he was
in high school so...
79
00:02:59,967 --> 00:03:00,000
I sure was.
80
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,166
I sure was.
81
00:03:01,166 --> 00:03:04,100
Whoa, so you liked him
'cause he's a bad boy.
82
00:03:04,100 --> 00:03:07,000
He did surprise me with little
snippets like that.
83
00:03:07,066 --> 00:03:09,300
[Brian] So, the house is great
in a lot of ways.
84
00:03:09,367 --> 00:03:12,100
There are some other things
that don't work
quite as well for us.
85
00:03:12,100 --> 00:03:14,667
Wait, when you said there's
some things that don't work,
you pointed at her.
86
00:03:14,667 --> 00:03:15,600
-Yep.
-Right.
87
00:03:15,667 --> 00:03:18,367
[Jonathan] You can't change
this, okay.
88
00:03:18,367 --> 00:03:20,767
-Newly married, you know--
-I'm learning.
89
00:03:20,767 --> 00:03:22,667
-All right.
-We each have our different
style, though.
90
00:03:22,667 --> 00:03:26,166
I'm from LA,
he's from Oregon, so he
loves the craftsman home.
91
00:03:26,166 --> 00:03:30,000
I love the, you know,
mid-century modern,
the Spanish style homes too.
92
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:30,500
I love the, you know,
mid-century modern,
the Spanish style homes too.
93
00:03:30,567 --> 00:03:33,967
So, he doesn't like, you know,
going out of his comfort zone.
94
00:03:33,967 --> 00:03:39,467
So, uh, we're excited that
he has no control over that
directly during this process.
95
00:03:39,467 --> 00:03:41,266
This house is not
that old, right?
96
00:03:41,266 --> 00:03:43,100
I mean, this does scream
97
00:03:43,166 --> 00:03:45,500
-early 2000s, late '90s...
-[Lily] Yep.
98
00:03:45,567 --> 00:03:48,100
...with the floor color,
some of the choices,
it's just...
99
00:03:48,166 --> 00:03:49,533
I think we can do a lot more.
100
00:03:49,533 --> 00:03:51,500
Make it feel fresh but most
importantly make it feel
like you.
101
00:03:51,567 --> 00:03:53,767
-[Brian] Yeah.
-One thing, with, you know,
the kitchen, I noticed
102
00:03:53,767 --> 00:03:56,166
it must be a little
frustrating when you're, argh!
103
00:03:56,467 --> 00:03:58,266
Why! Why!
104
00:03:58,266 --> 00:03:59,734
Absolutely.
105
00:03:59,767 --> 00:04:00,000
So weird, that they've
literally chopped your usable
space in half...
106
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,667
So weird, that they've
literally chopped your usable
space in half...
107
00:04:03,667 --> 00:04:05,367
-[Lily] Yep.
-...with a pointless
wall.
108
00:04:05,367 --> 00:04:07,166
To me, they're trying
to create division between
109
00:04:07,166 --> 00:04:08,767
your eating area
and your lounging space.
110
00:04:08,767 --> 00:04:10,567
But there are ways we can
do that without putting
111
00:04:10,567 --> 00:04:13,767
a giant pass-through
in the middle here.
112
00:04:13,767 --> 00:04:16,367
I suppose this is a needed
post over here.
113
00:04:16,367 --> 00:04:19,066
[Brian] If we could get rid
of the post and open the floor
114
00:04:19,066 --> 00:04:20,867
plan up, that would
be really amazing.
115
00:04:22,100 --> 00:04:23,166
[Jonathan] Do you entertain
a little bit?
116
00:04:23,166 --> 00:04:25,900
Best as we can
with a four top table.
117
00:04:25,967 --> 00:04:29,166
You'd have to decide though,
do you want
a formal dining table
118
00:04:29,166 --> 00:04:30,000
or do you want more casual
dining, like maybe a built-in
banquette on an island?
119
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,166
or do you want more casual
dining, like maybe a built-in
banquette on an island?
120
00:04:33,166 --> 00:04:36,100
I see beside the kitchen
there is a pretty big,
empty room.
121
00:04:36,100 --> 00:04:38,000
You could convert that
into dining space.
122
00:04:38,066 --> 00:04:39,300
[Brian]
That would be fantastic.
123
00:04:39,367 --> 00:04:40,900
We never end up using it.
124
00:04:40,967 --> 00:04:43,200
It's never been used
since we've lived here.
125
00:04:43,266 --> 00:04:46,667
The thing is, most people
would be worried about losing
an entire bedroom.
126
00:04:46,667 --> 00:04:48,567
-I assume it's legally
a bedroom?
-Yep.
127
00:04:48,567 --> 00:04:51,667
Because that can affect
the value of the home,
but again
128
00:04:51,667 --> 00:04:53,200
it's how you guys
are using it.
129
00:04:53,266 --> 00:04:54,867
I think we're both okay
losing a bedroom.
130
00:04:54,867 --> 00:04:58,867
We have enough space upstairs
for, if our family grows
in the future.
131
00:04:58,867 --> 00:05:00,000
And it's really space
that's not usable right now.
132
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,100
And it's really space
that's not usable right now.
133
00:05:02,166 --> 00:05:04,567
[Jonathan] There would
be structural work needed,
removing the post
134
00:05:04,567 --> 00:05:06,900
and the walls but it should
be pretty straightforward.
135
00:05:06,967 --> 00:05:08,800
[Drew] The kitchen we know
does not work.
136
00:05:08,867 --> 00:05:11,600
So, we can only expand in one
of two ways.
137
00:05:11,667 --> 00:05:15,767
Everything is just too small
for anything we want
to do in here.
138
00:05:15,767 --> 00:05:19,867
-[Drew] Yeah, this definitely
would be cramped.
-[Lily] Right.
139
00:05:19,867 --> 00:05:21,467
All of us being in here...
Obviously it's a kitchen
140
00:05:21,467 --> 00:05:23,467
where you can't have too many
chefs in the kitchen.
141
00:05:23,467 --> 00:05:25,400
This stone does
not feel fresh.
142
00:05:25,467 --> 00:05:27,100
The frustrating thing is you
spend a lot of money
143
00:05:27,100 --> 00:05:29,567
on some nice stone
and it's in a layout
that's terrible.
144
00:05:29,567 --> 00:05:30,000
So, we need to change this.
145
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:30,767
So, we need to change this.
146
00:05:30,767 --> 00:05:32,400
Yeah, I agree.
147
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,767
You wanna have a kitchen
that just feels bright and
exciting and you wanna cook.
148
00:05:34,767 --> 00:05:35,767
Who does
the cooking in here?
149
00:05:35,767 --> 00:05:37,467
I give him very specific
instructions.
150
00:05:37,467 --> 00:05:41,166
I try to chop vegetables
as best as I can,
but Lily is the, um,
151
00:05:41,166 --> 00:05:44,266
artiste when it comes to, uh,
making dinner.
152
00:05:44,266 --> 00:05:46,600
I can see
there's a dictatorship
in this kitchen. Yeah.
153
00:05:46,667 --> 00:05:48,000
They're your words,
not mine.
154
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,066
[Drew laughs] Yeah.
155
00:05:49,066 --> 00:05:50,400
And you have
the one small pantry?
156
00:05:50,467 --> 00:05:52,100
-Yes.
-We have the one tiny pantry.
157
00:05:52,166 --> 00:05:54,567
[Drew] Yeah, you're definitely
lacking storage,
we can change things.
158
00:05:54,567 --> 00:05:58,266
Especially if you
are interested in expanding
the kitchen into this room.
159
00:05:58,266 --> 00:06:00,000
How cool would it be
to double or even triple
the size of your kitchen?
160
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,166
How cool would it be
to double or even triple
the size of your kitchen?
161
00:06:02,166 --> 00:06:06,266
Right now, that half wall
and bedroom wall completely
cut off your main floor.
162
00:06:06,266 --> 00:06:08,767
If we took down both,
we could expand your kitchen
163
00:06:08,767 --> 00:06:10,266
all the way
to the back bedroom.
164
00:06:10,266 --> 00:06:11,667
You'd have a much bigger
dining area
165
00:06:11,667 --> 00:06:14,467
and an unobstructed flow
right into your living room.
166
00:06:14,467 --> 00:06:15,500
That would be amazing.
167
00:06:15,567 --> 00:06:17,367
That would be exactly what
we've always wanted
168
00:06:17,367 --> 00:06:18,967
-in this house
since we moved in.
-Yep, absolutely.
169
00:06:18,967 --> 00:06:20,166
-Okay.
-[Brian] Yeah,
170
00:06:20,166 --> 00:06:22,000
I feel like it would give us
more flow out onto the deck
171
00:06:22,066 --> 00:06:23,667
and then we'd be able
to entertain
172
00:06:23,667 --> 00:06:25,200
-all our friends that
come over.
-Right.
173
00:06:25,266 --> 00:06:26,467
I think the function
of this space
174
00:06:26,467 --> 00:06:28,000
-would be really nice
that way.
-Okay.
175
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Okay, I mean, there's a lot
of room over here
for the kitchen.
176
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,467
Okay, I mean, there's a lot
of room over here
for the kitchen.
177
00:06:31,467 --> 00:06:34,500
I can already imagine
the kitchen expanding
into this space.
178
00:06:34,567 --> 00:06:37,500
[Jonathan] Oh, you get so much
use out of this.
179
00:06:37,567 --> 00:06:39,867
[Drew] Though the piano looks
purposeful
and it has the bench.
180
00:06:39,867 --> 00:06:43,300
This sad little seat here
by itself, is this yours?
181
00:06:43,367 --> 00:06:44,900
[Brian] Yeah, that's mine,
yeah.
182
00:06:44,900 --> 00:06:47,467
But I think we definitely want
at least some kind of
a dedicated space
183
00:06:47,467 --> 00:06:50,000
-where the piano
can go for Lily to play.
-Yes, that would be great.
184
00:06:50,066 --> 00:06:52,000
Okay, I feel like
we're missing out that
185
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,467
we're sitting in a music room
and no one is playing music.
186
00:06:54,467 --> 00:06:55,467
-You have your bass?
-[Drew] Now?
187
00:06:55,467 --> 00:06:57,367
-I have my bass,
let me grab it.
-Grab it.
188
00:06:57,367 --> 00:07:00,000
-Oh, wow, no joke.
-Look at this.
189
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:00,266
-Oh, wow, no joke.
-Look at this.
190
00:07:00,266 --> 00:07:01,700
-Do you wanna show
us a little something?
-[Brian] Sure.
191
00:07:11,166 --> 00:07:12,500
-[Jonathan] That is beautiful.
-Whoo!
192
00:07:12,567 --> 00:07:14,367
-I have two things to say.
-[Brian] Yes, please.
193
00:07:14,367 --> 00:07:16,567
-One, that was awesome.
-Thanks.
194
00:07:16,567 --> 00:07:18,767
And two,
you have bass space.
195
00:07:18,767 --> 00:07:20,400
-Oh.
-You do.
196
00:07:20,467 --> 00:07:23,100
-[Brian] Yeah.
-You're, like, all smiles
and giggles and then
197
00:07:23,166 --> 00:07:25,266
bom, bom, bom, bom, bom,
straight into it.
198
00:07:25,266 --> 00:07:27,266
[producer] What do you think
you'd look like when you're
just playing the bass?
199
00:07:27,266 --> 00:07:29,867
I'm scared to even try
to make bass face.
200
00:07:29,867 --> 00:07:30,000
It's probably something
like this.
201
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,100
It's probably something
like this.
202
00:07:32,867 --> 00:07:34,266
But that's not
it at all, I'm sure.
203
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,367
-[Jonathan] Let's go look
at that view.
-[Brian] Yeah.
204
00:07:38,467 --> 00:07:41,100
[Jonathan] This is so gorgeous
out here.
205
00:07:41,100 --> 00:07:43,400
It all makes sense now.
206
00:07:43,467 --> 00:07:45,767
-Because this is the dream.
-[Brian] Yeah.
207
00:07:45,767 --> 00:07:49,000
-Yes.
-[Jonathan] It's time to make
the dreams come true inside.
208
00:07:49,066 --> 00:07:52,100
What is your budget
to do the work you wanna do?
209
00:07:52,100 --> 00:07:56,467
I think we were hoping
to stay, uh, within 190,000.
210
00:07:56,467 --> 00:07:58,567
[Jonathan] Okay, that's good.
But there is structural work.
211
00:07:58,567 --> 00:08:00,000
'Cause as soon as we start
doing structural, that can eat
212
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,100
'Cause as soon as we start
doing structural, that can eat
213
00:08:01,166 --> 00:08:02,500
up the budget really,
really fast.
214
00:08:02,500 --> 00:08:06,400
And I don't know that...
Even 200,000 might
not be enough so,
215
00:08:06,467 --> 00:08:12,000
I'm assuming from what you've
showed us, it's this main
floor that is the target.
216
00:08:12,066 --> 00:08:13,166
Yeah, absolutely.
217
00:08:13,166 --> 00:08:15,500
We're excited, we're excited
to love the indoor space
218
00:08:15,567 --> 00:08:17,467
as much as we love
the outdoor space.
219
00:08:17,467 --> 00:08:20,300
[Drew] Okay, so you like
Spanish style and you're
more into craftsman.
220
00:08:20,367 --> 00:08:22,066
Anything else?
221
00:08:22,066 --> 00:08:25,567
Little pops of color here and
there, you know, stretching
outside of the greyish
222
00:08:25,567 --> 00:08:27,400
zone would be great.
223
00:08:27,467 --> 00:08:28,900
-[Drew] All right.
-[Jonathan] Okay, cool.
224
00:08:28,967 --> 00:08:30,000
I'll put together
a couple ideas.
225
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:30,667
I'll put together
a couple ideas.
226
00:08:30,667 --> 00:08:32,667
I'll still show you some
different configurations
227
00:08:32,667 --> 00:08:34,767
and you can tell me
what you think
you like the best.
228
00:08:34,767 --> 00:08:37,100
And then, we're gonna jump
in and do demo right away.
229
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:38,700
-Fantastic.
-[Jonathan] Awesome.
230
00:08:38,700 --> 00:08:40,767
Yeah, and I'm gonna take
for a little inspiration tour
if you're game as well.
231
00:08:40,767 --> 00:08:42,467
-Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
-Absolutely.
232
00:08:42,467 --> 00:08:44,567
In the meantime, consider
putting some of the budget
233
00:08:44,567 --> 00:08:47,266
-toward a zipline. I think
that would be really fun.
-[Drew] Yes, I would ride it.
234
00:08:47,266 --> 00:08:48,400
-I would.
-[Brian] All right.
235
00:08:53,367 --> 00:08:55,800
[Jonathan] Before we commit
to any big changes,
236
00:08:55,867 --> 00:08:58,100
first we need to see
what's behind the walls
237
00:08:58,100 --> 00:09:00,000
and get rid of that stuff
that we know has to go.
238
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:00,500
and get rid of that stuff
that we know has to go.
239
00:09:00,567 --> 00:09:02,700
-All right, there you go.
-[Brian] Let's do this.
240
00:09:02,767 --> 00:09:06,100
Most importantly, we gotta
get rid of the weird wall
in the middle.
241
00:09:06,100 --> 00:09:07,967
Who wants to use
the reciprocating saw
on this wall?
242
00:09:08,767 --> 00:09:09,867
Definitely me.
243
00:09:09,867 --> 00:09:11,166
You got that? All right!
244
00:09:11,166 --> 00:09:13,867
All right, let's do this!
245
00:09:13,867 --> 00:09:15,500
[saw whirring]
246
00:09:19,100 --> 00:09:22,000
-Lily with a saw terrified
me a little.
-Yep.
247
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,266
Watching my wife do some demo
was pretty exciting.
248
00:09:24,867 --> 00:09:25,900
She did good.
249
00:09:25,967 --> 00:09:27,367
Three! Two! One!
250
00:09:28,367 --> 00:09:29,700
-Whoo!
-Yeah!
251
00:09:29,767 --> 00:09:30,000
[Lily] Thank goodness
it's gone.
252
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,500
[Lily] Thank goodness
it's gone.
253
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:37,400
That was so exciting to just
see it not obstructing our
view from the kitchen area.
254
00:09:37,467 --> 00:09:38,667
-[Brian] That's beautiful.
-[Lily] Yes.
255
00:09:38,667 --> 00:09:41,166
-It does make this post
even more annoying.
-Yeah.
256
00:09:41,166 --> 00:09:43,100
[Jonathan] Well, I'm really
hoping we can take it out.
257
00:09:43,100 --> 00:09:46,667
But let's take a peek here.
We wanna see, what is this
holding up.
258
00:09:46,667 --> 00:09:48,967
We don't know where
our ceiling joists go.
259
00:09:53,467 --> 00:09:54,667
So...
260
00:09:55,667 --> 00:09:58,000
Huh.
261
00:09:58,066 --> 00:10:00,000
It seems that there is a beam
going from the exterior wall
all the way over here.
262
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,166
It seems that there is a beam
going from the exterior wall
all the way over here.
263
00:10:03,166 --> 00:10:05,900
But then this post comes up
and appears to be supporting
264
00:10:05,967 --> 00:10:08,367
the load of the flooring
joints this way.
265
00:10:08,367 --> 00:10:11,300
I'm gonna have the engineer
come and take a look
in person.
266
00:10:11,367 --> 00:10:12,867
Worst case scenario,
267
00:10:12,867 --> 00:10:15,166
if we have to keep this,
I'll find a way
to integrate it,
268
00:10:15,166 --> 00:10:17,200
-so it just feels
purposeful.
-[both] Okay.
269
00:10:17,266 --> 00:10:18,467
So focus on the good.
270
00:10:18,467 --> 00:10:20,166
-Yeah.
-[Jonathan] Wall down.
271
00:10:20,166 --> 00:10:22,700
-And now
let's focus on the cabinets.
-[Brian] Excellent.
272
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,000
[Jonathan] I wish we could
recycle these countertops,
273
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:30,867
[Jonathan] I wish we could
recycle these countertops,
274
00:10:30,867 --> 00:10:33,266
but they're just too thin
to remove without breaking.
275
00:10:35,767 --> 00:10:37,200
All right.
276
00:10:37,266 --> 00:10:39,066
Now, we wanna find
the weak spot.
277
00:10:41,767 --> 00:10:44,166
-[Brian] I think you found it.
-There's the weak spot.
278
00:10:44,166 --> 00:10:46,567
[Jonathan] And that's why
we can't donate
these cabinets.
279
00:10:48,266 --> 00:10:49,200
Two. Three.
280
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,100
Nice.
281
00:10:54,767 --> 00:10:56,233
[laughs]
282
00:10:56,266 --> 00:10:59,667
This peninsula was just
such an eyesore,
and it was always in the way.
283
00:10:59,667 --> 00:11:00,000
Not usable, really,
for prep space.
284
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,467
Not usable, really,
for prep space.
285
00:11:02,467 --> 00:11:04,800
So, this just feels
so much more open.
286
00:11:04,867 --> 00:11:07,266
We wanna make sure
this kitchen works
like a dream for you guys.
287
00:11:07,266 --> 00:11:08,367
-That would be awesome.
-[Lily] Yeah.
288
00:11:08,367 --> 00:11:09,567
That's the goal.
289
00:11:09,567 --> 00:11:11,100
-Should we keep going?
-Let's break some stuff.
290
00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:12,834
[Jonathan laughs] Yeah.
291
00:11:14,166 --> 00:11:17,900
These kitchen cabinets
are all custom made but
with really cheap material.
292
00:11:17,967 --> 00:11:20,667
And honestly, the only reason
they kept the kitchen
like this
293
00:11:20,667 --> 00:11:23,166
is 'cause they had
to have the extra bedroom.
294
00:11:23,166 --> 00:11:25,967
Brian and Lily don't need
the extra bedroom. They need
a bigger kitchen.
295
00:11:28,467 --> 00:11:30,000
So, we need to know
what's going on behind
this wall.
296
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,400
So, we need to know
what's going on behind
this wall.
297
00:11:31,467 --> 00:11:34,367
Is this shear rated?
Does it have plywood
across it?
298
00:11:34,367 --> 00:11:37,166
Because if this is a shear
wall, it's gonna affect
what we can do here.
299
00:11:37,166 --> 00:11:40,767
Because the extra support
is needed for meeting codes
to withstand earthquakes.
300
00:11:40,767 --> 00:11:45,100
Also, inside the closet,
I want to know exactly,
what this post is?
301
00:11:45,166 --> 00:11:46,000
What it's supporting?
302
00:11:49,467 --> 00:11:50,400
That didn't take long.
303
00:11:54,767 --> 00:11:56,266
That's not a load.
304
00:11:56,266 --> 00:11:59,000
-It's a waste pipe
for upstairs.
-[Lily] Oh.
305
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,867
So, yeah, you can see.
306
00:12:02,867 --> 00:12:06,066
I was thinking in my head,
we're just gonna be dealing
with structure.
307
00:12:06,066 --> 00:12:09,066
And now we're dealing
with a main stack
and structure.
308
00:12:09,066 --> 00:12:11,567
It's a waste stack.
It's kind of a crappy find.
309
00:12:12,900 --> 00:12:14,166
Wah! Wah!
310
00:12:14,166 --> 00:12:16,100
[chuckling]
311
00:12:16,166 --> 00:12:19,166
Uh, we still have to figure
out our structure
situation here,
312
00:12:19,166 --> 00:12:21,000
which is still a mystery.
313
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,066
I think I'm gonna have
to actually strip back
314
00:12:23,066 --> 00:12:24,900
a lot of this,
so that the engineer can look.
315
00:12:24,900 --> 00:12:28,166
But in reality, we also have
to figure out if we're dealing
with a shear wall, over here.
316
00:12:28,166 --> 00:12:29,300
Did you get a hole busted
on the other side?
317
00:12:29,367 --> 00:12:30,000
[Brian] Not yet, but I can.
318
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:30,467
[Brian] Not yet, but I can.
319
00:12:30,467 --> 00:12:31,967
Get busting.
320
00:12:31,967 --> 00:12:33,166
And then we can try
from this side too.
321
00:12:38,700 --> 00:12:39,567
Watch your face.
322
00:12:40,767 --> 00:12:42,233
Oh, my gosh.
323
00:12:44,266 --> 00:12:47,467
I have no idea what the framer
was doing when he was working
here.
324
00:12:47,467 --> 00:12:49,100
What were they framing for?
I do not...
325
00:12:49,166 --> 00:12:52,000
And it's not even
a shear wall
so that's good news.
326
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,467
-[Lily] Okay, great.
-[Brian] Awesome.
327
00:12:53,467 --> 00:12:56,166
[Jonathan] But there's another
fricking stack.
328
00:12:56,166 --> 00:12:58,200
What is going on here?
329
00:12:58,266 --> 00:13:00,000
-[Lily] Oh, wow.
-Why are there two stacks
side by side?
330
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,266
-[Lily] Oh, wow.
-Why are there two stacks
side by side?
331
00:13:01,266 --> 00:13:02,867
How many bathrooms
are there upstairs?
332
00:13:02,867 --> 00:13:05,367
-[Lily] There are two.
-All right.
333
00:13:05,367 --> 00:13:10,400
So, I have more questions now
that we've opened up the wall
than I did before.
334
00:13:10,467 --> 00:13:12,066
What the heck?
335
00:13:19,700 --> 00:13:23,600
I have more questions now
that we've opened up the wall
than I did before.
336
00:13:23,667 --> 00:13:26,567
It is a good thing that
there's no shear layer here.
That's great.
337
00:13:26,567 --> 00:13:30,166
We could potentially lose
the post in the middle
of the living room.
338
00:13:30,166 --> 00:13:31,867
And then, the plumber
will have to figure out,
339
00:13:31,867 --> 00:13:35,000
can we bring over the other
stack, get that out
of the way.
340
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,667
A lot of questions.
341
00:13:36,667 --> 00:13:41,166
We were very surprised to find
as many unforeseen issues
in the walls as we did.
342
00:13:41,166 --> 00:13:43,417
We hope that that's not going
to completely take us over
our intended budget.
343
00:13:43,417 --> 00:13:46,000
We hope that that's not going
to completely take us over
our intended budget.
344
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,000
I'll take some pictures,
send it to the engineer,
we'll get going,
345
00:13:48,066 --> 00:13:49,367
but you guys can call
it a day.
346
00:13:54,367 --> 00:13:57,400
They bought a house that
isn't inherently Spanish
or craftsman
347
00:13:57,467 --> 00:13:59,567
But Brian and Lily
like some elements
of those styles.
348
00:13:59,567 --> 00:14:02,266
So I need to gauge
just how much
they actually want.
349
00:14:02,266 --> 00:14:04,100
We'll see if we can marry
the two.
350
00:14:04,100 --> 00:14:05,467
-Pressure's on, Drew.
-Yes.
351
00:14:05,467 --> 00:14:06,500
[Drew] Come on.
352
00:14:06,567 --> 00:14:07,667
[Brian] Oh, wow.
353
00:14:07,667 --> 00:14:09,200
[Lily] I see a big kitchen.
354
00:14:09,266 --> 00:14:11,200
-Ooh.
-Mmm-hmm.
355
00:14:11,266 --> 00:14:12,967
-[Lily] Oh, wow.
-[Brian] Oh, my gosh.
356
00:14:12,967 --> 00:14:13,417
[Drew] So, what's your first
impression when you see
357
00:14:13,417 --> 00:14:15,066
[Drew] So, what's your first
impression when you see
358
00:14:15,066 --> 00:14:17,567
this beautiful kitchen space
and all the cabinets?
359
00:14:17,567 --> 00:14:21,266
I just love how open it is,
how everything's accessible.
360
00:14:21,266 --> 00:14:24,767
Lots of multi-functional
dining areas too.
361
00:14:24,767 --> 00:14:27,367
So it could be a little more
casual as we want it.
362
00:14:27,367 --> 00:14:29,133
You know, workspaces.
363
00:14:29,133 --> 00:14:33,000
The one thing I like here that
they have is there's no half
wall from the living space
364
00:14:33,066 --> 00:14:34,166
-into the kitchen area.
-[Brian] Yep.
365
00:14:34,166 --> 00:14:36,667
[Drew] It's way more connected
between the two.
366
00:14:36,667 --> 00:14:39,100
The layout of your house
is a lot wider footprint.
367
00:14:39,100 --> 00:14:41,367
-Yup.
-So, you can get away with
having the table
368
00:14:41,367 --> 00:14:43,100
-separate from
the kitchen area.
-Yeah.
369
00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:43,417
Color wise, is this a color
you would wanna choose?
370
00:14:43,417 --> 00:14:46,100
Color wise, is this a color
you would wanna choose?
371
00:14:46,166 --> 00:14:48,367
I like the idea
of two-tone cabinets.
372
00:14:48,367 --> 00:14:50,767
Maybe different
uppers and lowers.
373
00:14:50,767 --> 00:14:54,266
And, um, in terms of color,
I think we both
really like blues.
374
00:14:54,266 --> 00:14:56,467
But if you really wanna amp
that up on the design side
375
00:14:56,467 --> 00:14:59,800
let's also do two-tone
countertops. You up for that?
376
00:14:59,867 --> 00:15:02,166
-All right, yeah,
that sounds great.
-Yeah, yeah, that sounds cool.
377
00:15:02,166 --> 00:15:07,967
Wow, two-tone countertops,
that's so out
of your normal...
378
00:15:07,967 --> 00:15:09,967
It's a little more bold than
I would normally go.
379
00:15:09,967 --> 00:15:13,417
And it's far, far away
from the, kind of, the builder
380
00:15:13,417 --> 00:15:13,567
And it's far, far away
from the, kind of, the builder
381
00:15:13,567 --> 00:15:15,266
grade cookie-cutter design
that we have.
382
00:15:15,266 --> 00:15:16,467
Give me a second here.
383
00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:19,500
I'm, kind of, like
a proud father.
You're growing up.
384
00:15:19,567 --> 00:15:21,467
Little design Brian
is growing up.
385
00:15:21,467 --> 00:15:22,600
[Lily] You have changed him
as a man.
386
00:15:22,667 --> 00:15:24,900
You're becoming a two-tone
kind of guy
387
00:15:24,967 --> 00:15:26,266
Two-tone countertops.
388
00:15:26,266 --> 00:15:28,166
You know, we all have to step
out of our comfort zone
389
00:15:28,166 --> 00:15:30,367
at some point. I'm trying
here. I'm trying.
390
00:15:30,367 --> 00:15:32,667
Single tear.
I'm proud of you.
391
00:15:32,667 --> 00:15:35,767
I did that in our kitchen
and Linda loves it.
392
00:15:35,767 --> 00:15:38,266
-It's just really nice to make
it your own.
-[Brian] Cool.
393
00:15:38,266 --> 00:15:40,767
And also when you have
friends and family over,
you can walk around, be like,
394
00:15:40,767 --> 00:15:43,417
"Oh, welcome to my kitchen."
'Cause you're so fancy now.
395
00:15:43,417 --> 00:15:43,600
"Oh, welcome to my kitchen."
'Cause you're so fancy now.
396
00:15:43,667 --> 00:15:45,667
You have to talk
like you're fancy.
397
00:15:45,667 --> 00:15:47,467
-We're gonna have to work
on that.
-[Jonathan and Lily] Yeah.
398
00:15:47,467 --> 00:15:49,300
Anyway, back to reality.
399
00:15:49,367 --> 00:15:52,000
Uh, when we're looking
at the hardware
and the faucet,
400
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,200
what do you think?
401
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,400
I think we'd prefer either
black or something that blends
402
00:15:56,467 --> 00:15:58,266
-in a little bit more.
-[Brian] Yeah.
403
00:15:58,266 --> 00:15:59,467
Anything else
jumps out to you?
404
00:15:59,467 --> 00:16:01,700
I like that
it's very natural wood
405
00:16:01,767 --> 00:16:02,867
-and, you know, the floors...
-[Drew] Yeah.
406
00:16:02,867 --> 00:16:04,467
...are very natural looking.
407
00:16:04,500 --> 00:16:08,567
Yeah, I think we'd love
maybe a wider plank floor
and kind of a medium tone.
408
00:16:08,567 --> 00:16:11,867
This is pretty close. We would
even maybe go a hair
lighter than this, I think.
409
00:16:11,867 --> 00:16:13,417
Yeah, and actually what I like
too is there's a lot
of variation in the board
410
00:16:13,417 --> 00:16:15,000
Yeah, and actually what I like
too is there's a lot
of variation in the board
411
00:16:15,066 --> 00:16:16,567
and something like these
wooden shelves,
412
00:16:16,567 --> 00:16:18,300
we can hit that
craftsman's style you like.
413
00:16:18,367 --> 00:16:20,867
-[Brian] Exactly.
-[Drew] Anything else before
we head to the living room?
414
00:16:20,867 --> 00:16:22,367
-[Brian] No, let's head there.
-[Lily] I think you covered...
415
00:16:22,367 --> 00:16:24,066
[Brian] Oh, Lily,
look at this.
416
00:16:24,066 --> 00:16:27,000
[Lily] Oh, my gosh,
that is so cute.
417
00:16:27,066 --> 00:16:29,100
[Drew]
I love a niche like that.
It's perfect for pet owners.
418
00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:30,667
So, if you want something
like that I'll tell Jonathan
419
00:16:30,667 --> 00:16:32,100
to make sure to build
something in for Moose.
420
00:16:32,100 --> 00:16:33,867
-[Brian] Yeah, I think
that'd be amazing for Moose.
-[Lily] Yeah.
421
00:16:33,867 --> 00:16:35,300
He can eat
while we're eating.
422
00:16:35,367 --> 00:16:36,567
-Yeah.
-[Drew] Exactly.
423
00:16:36,567 --> 00:16:39,066
Moose is the best name
for a dog by the way.
424
00:16:39,066 --> 00:16:41,700
Come on in here,
make yourselves at home.
425
00:16:41,767 --> 00:16:43,417
I feel that you need
to transform that living
space.
426
00:16:43,417 --> 00:16:45,100
I feel that you need
to transform that living
space.
427
00:16:45,100 --> 00:16:47,867
Because right now,
it just feels a little barren
to me.
428
00:16:47,867 --> 00:16:50,100
-Yeah.
-Yes, it absolutely does.
429
00:16:50,100 --> 00:16:51,767
But it's fine.
I mean, it's good.
430
00:16:51,767 --> 00:16:55,300
Now we're figuring out a way
to style your home that fits
both your aesthetics.
431
00:16:55,367 --> 00:16:57,100
So, it's gonna be perfect
in the end.
432
00:16:57,100 --> 00:17:01,266
[Lily] Yeah, and I like
all the pops of color here,
nice art.
433
00:17:01,266 --> 00:17:03,800
[Drew] You have a fireplace,
they obviously don't have
that here.
434
00:17:03,867 --> 00:17:06,100
Do you see built-ins at all
on that wall?
435
00:17:06,100 --> 00:17:07,600
Would you want to see
additional built-ins?
436
00:17:07,667 --> 00:17:09,967
Or do you just wanna focus
on the fireplace feature.
437
00:17:09,967 --> 00:17:13,100
I think the fireplace feature,
uh, is really important to us.
438
00:17:13,100 --> 00:17:13,417
I feel that this is where
we could bring in a bit
of that Spanish influence,
439
00:17:13,417 --> 00:17:16,367
I feel that this is where
we could bring in a bit
of that Spanish influence,
440
00:17:16,367 --> 00:17:18,800
by swapping out the surround
with some really unique tiles.
441
00:17:18,867 --> 00:17:20,367
-Sounds great.
-Yeah, that sounds amazing.
442
00:17:20,367 --> 00:17:22,200
[Lily] It's great that
they have a bar right there.
443
00:17:22,266 --> 00:17:23,867
You know, that'll be great
for entertaining.
444
00:17:23,867 --> 00:17:26,266
It's also separate
from the kitchen space.
445
00:17:26,266 --> 00:17:30,100
What we could actually do
is instead of just having
a bar cart,
446
00:17:30,100 --> 00:17:33,100
if you do, like, built-ins
but we might not necessarily
do that in the living room.
447
00:17:33,166 --> 00:17:35,600
Maybe we can just do some
built-ins or a small area
448
00:17:35,667 --> 00:17:37,667
that's like a bar area
built-in.
449
00:17:37,667 --> 00:17:38,967
-Yeah, yeah.
-That'd be fantastic.
450
00:17:38,967 --> 00:17:40,567
-That sounds
very cool. Yeah.
-If we have the space for it.
451
00:17:40,567 --> 00:17:42,367
That's the trick.
Once we know more there,
452
00:17:42,367 --> 00:17:43,417
we can really come
up with the options for you.
453
00:17:43,417 --> 00:17:44,266
we can really come
up with the options for you.
454
00:17:44,266 --> 00:17:47,767
I think it's given us a lot
to think about and I think
it's made us really excited
455
00:17:47,767 --> 00:17:49,967
about seeing the design
when it's all done.
456
00:17:49,967 --> 00:17:52,100
-[Drew] All right,
thanks, guys.
-All right.
457
00:17:52,166 --> 00:17:54,667
[Drew] I don't think Brian
and Lily are that far apart
from each other.
458
00:17:54,667 --> 00:17:57,000
We don't need to go full
Spanish style with this home.
459
00:17:57,066 --> 00:17:59,166
And we also don't need
to do a fully craftsman
home either.
460
00:17:59,166 --> 00:18:00,400
So, we're good.
461
00:18:06,500 --> 00:18:08,166
[Jonathan] I found a bunch
of complicated stuff
462
00:18:08,166 --> 00:18:09,800
with Brian and Lily
during demolition.
463
00:18:09,867 --> 00:18:13,417
Well, now with Gus
I'm continuing the demo,
stripping everything back,
464
00:18:13,417 --> 00:18:13,467
Well, now with Gus
I'm continuing the demo,
stripping everything back,
465
00:18:13,467 --> 00:18:18,500
and every stud cavity we open
shows us another problem.
466
00:18:18,567 --> 00:18:24,100
I don't understand why
there is so much plumbing
in these walls.
467
00:18:24,166 --> 00:18:27,367
There's definitely some
challenging structural stuff
going on.
468
00:18:27,367 --> 00:18:29,967
The more we open up,
the more confusing it gets.
469
00:18:29,967 --> 00:18:33,066
This is actually becoming
comical now because we have
470
00:18:33,066 --> 00:18:38,667
one, two, three, four, five,
five pipes, two of those
are stacks.
471
00:18:38,667 --> 00:18:41,767
Every design for the kitchen
and how we wanna expand it
472
00:18:41,767 --> 00:18:43,417
in my mind has this
all completely opened.
473
00:18:43,417 --> 00:18:44,500
in my mind has this
all completely opened.
474
00:18:44,567 --> 00:18:47,000
-It's crazy.
-This is, uh, disappointing.
475
00:18:49,166 --> 00:18:51,467
[Drew] We found so many
structural issues that we need
476
00:18:51,467 --> 00:18:54,700
to fully open up all the walls
to see what else
we're dealing with.
477
00:18:54,767 --> 00:18:58,367
Brian and Lily's house
is located on a hill
in an earthquake zone.
478
00:18:58,367 --> 00:19:01,100
So it's imperative an engineer
investigates the mysterious
479
00:19:01,166 --> 00:19:03,967
support post to discuss
options for removing it.
480
00:19:03,967 --> 00:19:06,867
As well as the load-bearing
pipe-filled kitchen wall.
481
00:19:06,867 --> 00:19:08,767
But just when we think
we found a solution
482
00:19:08,767 --> 00:19:11,667
we discover even more
serious structural concerns.
483
00:19:11,667 --> 00:19:13,417
It'll be very costly fixing
those problems and rerouting
484
00:19:13,417 --> 00:19:15,100
It'll be very costly fixing
those problems and rerouting
485
00:19:15,100 --> 00:19:17,100
all the plumbing
and utilities.
486
00:19:17,100 --> 00:19:19,200
This has escalated
very quickly
487
00:19:19,266 --> 00:19:20,867
and I have a terrible
feeling about what this
488
00:19:20,867 --> 00:19:23,600
is gonna mean financially
for Brian and Lily.
489
00:19:23,667 --> 00:19:26,567
The engineer, unfortunately
came across news that means
490
00:19:26,567 --> 00:19:28,367
if we want to give them
everything they want,
it's gonna be more.
491
00:19:28,367 --> 00:19:31,700
Yeah, well, they gave us their
max budget and then the house
gave us its max problems.
492
00:19:38,867 --> 00:19:40,700
Enter your home
if you recognize it.
493
00:19:42,266 --> 00:19:43,417
-[Brian] Whoa.
-[Lily] Wow. All right.
494
00:19:43,417 --> 00:19:45,066
-[Brian] Whoa.
-[Lily] Wow. All right.
495
00:19:45,066 --> 00:19:46,967
[Jonathan]
A little further opened
up since you saw it.
496
00:19:46,967 --> 00:19:48,900
-[Lily] Yes, yeah.
-[Brian] A little bit, yeah.
497
00:19:48,967 --> 00:19:50,767
[Jonathan] This is a big issue
over here.
498
00:19:50,767 --> 00:19:53,767
When we were doing demolition
we discovered a couple
499
00:19:53,767 --> 00:19:55,767
plumbing lines in the walls
when we were opening
things up.
500
00:19:55,767 --> 00:19:59,400
And then, every stud cabinet
we kept opening, another,
another, another,
501
00:19:59,467 --> 00:20:03,266
to the point where there's
five plumbing lines in here.
Two of them main stacks.
502
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,467
Very hard to move.
503
00:20:05,467 --> 00:20:09,266
So, that's challenging
when it comes to how
we wanna change the footprint.
504
00:20:09,266 --> 00:20:12,567
Also dealing with
all the structure here,
the post in the middle,
505
00:20:12,567 --> 00:20:13,417
you can see why
I was sweating
506
00:20:13,417 --> 00:20:13,900
you can see why
I was sweating
507
00:20:13,967 --> 00:20:15,600
-a little bit with what
we were gonna do. Yeah.
-[Lily] Yeah.
508
00:20:15,667 --> 00:20:17,133
[Drew] I mean,
the tough thing is,
I mean,
509
00:20:17,133 --> 00:20:19,400
-aside from the structure
over here with the pole...
-[Brian] Sure.
510
00:20:19,467 --> 00:20:23,100
...all of this makes for a lot
more expensive decisions
just to open up this wall.
511
00:20:23,100 --> 00:20:24,600
Right.
512
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:30,100
I'm not gonna lie,
the engineer said there
was some very poor work done
513
00:20:30,100 --> 00:20:34,166
in how this had been renovated
in the past, structurally.
514
00:20:34,166 --> 00:20:38,867
-Of all the things you wanna
cheap out on, not structure.
-No.
515
00:20:38,867 --> 00:20:41,567
[Jonathan] Especially when
you have structure of a house
that is on a hill.
516
00:20:41,567 --> 00:20:42,900
-[Lily] Right.
-[Brian] Yeah.
517
00:20:42,900 --> 00:20:43,417
The unfortunate thing is,
the engineer said,
"No matter what,
518
00:20:43,417 --> 00:20:46,467
The unfortunate thing is,
the engineer said,
"No matter what,
519
00:20:46,467 --> 00:20:49,166
this has to be swapped out
to a steel beam and it needs
520
00:20:49,166 --> 00:20:52,100
to be almost four times
the size."
521
00:20:52,166 --> 00:20:54,200
-Oh, wow.
-[Jonathan] This is
way underrated.
522
00:20:54,266 --> 00:20:55,800
Because you're on a hill
523
00:20:55,867 --> 00:20:57,400
-and because the earthquakes
and everything else.
-[Lily and Brian] Okay.
524
00:20:57,467 --> 00:20:59,767
The thing that, kind of,
freaks me out a little
bit too,
525
00:20:59,767 --> 00:21:03,266
like this right now is holding
up an incredible amount
of weight.
526
00:21:03,266 --> 00:21:06,266
-The upper level, the roof
structure and everything.
-Right.
527
00:21:06,266 --> 00:21:08,000
-It's not even tied
in to anything.
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
528
00:21:15,567 --> 00:21:18,066
This right now is holding
up an incredible amount
of weight
529
00:21:18,066 --> 00:21:20,867
-for the upper level, the roof
structure and everything.
-Right.
530
00:21:20,867 --> 00:21:23,066
-[Jonathan] It's not even
tied in to anything.
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh. Yeah.
531
00:21:23,066 --> 00:21:24,500
-You can see it moving.
-[Jonathan] It's literally
just sitting
532
00:21:24,567 --> 00:21:25,667
on this bottom plate
that was here.
533
00:21:25,667 --> 00:21:26,900
And we wanna make sure
that everything is safe.
534
00:21:26,967 --> 00:21:28,200
Yeah.
535
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,600
It's pretty shocking to watch
Jonathan kicking that post.
536
00:21:30,667 --> 00:21:33,266
To think that our bedroom
is right above that
537
00:21:33,266 --> 00:21:35,667
and that little 4x4 post
538
00:21:35,667 --> 00:21:37,767
is what's holding up
the upper level
is pretty scary.
539
00:21:37,767 --> 00:21:39,867
We're also really glad
that they're gonna
get in there
540
00:21:39,867 --> 00:21:41,967
and get it structurally sound
541
00:21:41,967 --> 00:21:43,767
and, you know,
we can rest easy at night
542
00:21:43,767 --> 00:21:43,814
knowing that the house
is in good shape.
543
00:21:43,814 --> 00:21:45,467
knowing that the house
is in good shape.
544
00:21:45,467 --> 00:21:49,166
Do you want the financially
positive option first?
545
00:21:49,166 --> 00:21:51,500
Or the financially
negative option first?
546
00:21:51,567 --> 00:21:54,166
Which one is the option
that'll get us
547
00:21:54,166 --> 00:21:56,867
the open kitchen
with the island?
548
00:21:56,867 --> 00:21:58,767
-[both] Okay.
-Well, I'll give that to you
first then.
549
00:21:58,767 --> 00:21:59,734
[Brian and Lily] Okay.
550
00:21:59,767 --> 00:22:02,000
Option one,
and we don't normally do this
551
00:22:02,066 --> 00:22:04,400
'cause I know
your max budget is $190,000.
552
00:22:04,467 --> 00:22:05,300
-Yeah.
-[Lily] Mmm-hmm.
553
00:22:05,367 --> 00:22:08,266
The only way
we can open this up,
554
00:22:08,266 --> 00:22:10,100
the beam work
that would be involved,
555
00:22:10,166 --> 00:22:11,767
moving this plumbing.
556
00:22:11,767 --> 00:22:13,400
Everything that would
have to happen
557
00:22:13,467 --> 00:22:13,814
would be $200,000.
558
00:22:13,814 --> 00:22:15,600
would be $200,000.
559
00:22:15,667 --> 00:22:17,667
[Drew] And it would take
seven weeks to complete.
560
00:22:17,667 --> 00:22:20,767
-[both] Okay.
-[Drew] Imagine with that
pipe-filled bedroom wall gone,
561
00:22:20,767 --> 00:22:23,266
just how much space
would be created.
562
00:22:23,266 --> 00:22:27,166
That would give you
a complete open concept
over here,
563
00:22:27,166 --> 00:22:29,400
so we could have
a massive long island,
564
00:22:29,467 --> 00:22:31,900
extend your kitchen
all the way across.
565
00:22:31,967 --> 00:22:33,033
It would be incredible.
566
00:22:33,033 --> 00:22:34,600
We'd have a dining area
here in the center
567
00:22:34,667 --> 00:22:38,600
with a built-in bar over here
that would help
hide this post,
568
00:22:38,667 --> 00:22:42,000
and beautiful matching
flooring throughout
the whole main floor.
569
00:22:42,066 --> 00:22:43,814
[Jonathan] And on top of that,
we would completely
update your living room,
570
00:22:43,814 --> 00:22:44,767
[Jonathan] And on top of that,
we would completely
update your living room,
571
00:22:44,767 --> 00:22:46,300
relocate your piano,
572
00:22:46,367 --> 00:22:47,900
and make it
warm and welcoming,
573
00:22:47,967 --> 00:22:50,767
blending some very subtle
Spanish design influences,
574
00:22:50,767 --> 00:22:54,200
and wide plank flooring
to touch on that craftsman
natural wood look.
575
00:22:54,266 --> 00:22:57,567
And probably
the most functional layout
you could possibly get.
576
00:22:57,567 --> 00:22:58,667
-[Lily] Yep.
-Okay.
577
00:22:58,667 --> 00:23:01,700
I do like that we're gonna
be sure that it's safe
578
00:23:01,767 --> 00:23:03,767
and really structurally sound.
579
00:23:03,767 --> 00:23:06,900
But, yeah, it's a lot more
money than we were
looking at originally.
580
00:23:06,967 --> 00:23:09,567
[Jonathan] Don't let it
stress you out
until you hear option two
581
00:23:09,567 --> 00:23:12,667
'cause option two
still gives you
an incredible layout,
582
00:23:12,667 --> 00:23:13,814
and $20,000
still in your pocket.
583
00:23:13,814 --> 00:23:15,567
and $20,000
still in your pocket.
584
00:23:15,567 --> 00:23:17,000
-We like that.
-Yeah.
585
00:23:17,066 --> 00:23:20,667
-[all laugh]
-Option two would
come in at $180,000.
586
00:23:20,667 --> 00:23:22,800
-[Brian] Okay.
-It would only take
six weeks to complete.
587
00:23:22,867 --> 00:23:25,900
-[Brian] Okay.
-With option two,
we would keep this wall here,
588
00:23:25,967 --> 00:23:27,200
where it currently is.
589
00:23:27,266 --> 00:23:29,066
So we don't have
to move all of this plumbing.
590
00:23:29,066 --> 00:23:30,667
It simplifies
a lot of the structure,
591
00:23:30,667 --> 00:23:32,800
'cause we wouldn't
have to put in
the same beam in everything.
592
00:23:32,867 --> 00:23:34,100
-[Brian] Okay.
-[Jonathan] However,
593
00:23:34,100 --> 00:23:36,367
we would extend your kitchen
out this way a little bit
594
00:23:36,367 --> 00:23:38,367
with an island
that comes into this space.
595
00:23:38,367 --> 00:23:40,867
The only difference
is we'd change the design
596
00:23:40,867 --> 00:23:43,266
so that you don't
have it completely open.
597
00:23:43,266 --> 00:23:43,814
You're going
to have a wall.
598
00:23:43,814 --> 00:23:44,300
You're going
to have a wall.
599
00:23:44,367 --> 00:23:46,066
So we would relocate
your dining room
600
00:23:46,066 --> 00:23:47,800
into the space
at the back over here.
601
00:23:47,867 --> 00:23:51,100
So it feels like
the flow is a lot better
through these two spaces...
602
00:23:51,166 --> 00:23:52,567
-[Brian] Okay.
-...and keep
that continuity
603
00:23:52,567 --> 00:23:54,367
-with the hardwood throughout.
-[Lily] Mmm.
604
00:23:54,367 --> 00:23:56,400
[Jonathan] You'd still get
that great bar over here.
605
00:23:56,467 --> 00:23:58,166
We'd redo the living room,
fireplace.
606
00:23:58,166 --> 00:23:59,700
Everything would be gorgeous.
607
00:23:59,767 --> 00:24:01,467
Everything would be
exactly the same.
608
00:24:01,467 --> 00:24:05,900
-Okay.
-Saves you
two weeks and $20,000.
609
00:24:05,967 --> 00:24:10,200
And it's still gonna have
all the bells and whistles
that you guys want.
610
00:24:10,266 --> 00:24:12,367
I don't like
presenting options
611
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:13,814
that are over
our clients' max budgets
612
00:24:13,814 --> 00:24:14,467
that are over
our clients' max budgets
613
00:24:14,467 --> 00:24:16,200
because that's the point
of a max budget.
614
00:24:16,266 --> 00:24:18,767
-You kind of figure out
a solution within that.
-Yeah.
615
00:24:18,767 --> 00:24:21,800
I just really know how much
they want the open concept,
616
00:24:21,867 --> 00:24:24,000
so I want them to understand
what that would cost.
617
00:24:24,500 --> 00:24:25,834
My gosh.
618
00:24:25,867 --> 00:24:28,266
What do you think
it's gonna be,
option one or option two?
619
00:24:29,967 --> 00:24:31,100
[Brian sighs]
620
00:24:31,100 --> 00:24:33,200
The older I've gotten,
the more I've always thought,
621
00:24:33,266 --> 00:24:35,767
if you're gonna do something,
you should do it
the right way.
622
00:24:35,767 --> 00:24:38,767
I think if we're doing it,
we should really do it.
623
00:24:38,767 --> 00:24:42,467
-Yeah, I think we'll go
with option one. Yep, yes.
-Option one it is, yeah.
624
00:24:42,467 --> 00:24:43,767
-[Drew] All right.
-[Jonathan] Whoo!
625
00:24:43,767 --> 00:24:43,814
-One year in,
big financial decisions.
-[Brian chuckling]
626
00:24:43,814 --> 00:24:46,100
-One year in,
big financial decisions.
-[Brian chuckling]
627
00:24:46,100 --> 00:24:48,367
I know, I know, yeah.
628
00:24:48,367 --> 00:24:50,367
All right then,
I'll talk to you
in a couple of days
629
00:24:50,367 --> 00:24:52,000
and get out. The next time
630
00:24:52,066 --> 00:24:53,333
-you see this place,
it'll be done.
-Oh, good.
631
00:24:53,333 --> 00:24:55,367
-[both] All right.
-[Jonathan] All right,
thanks, guys.
632
00:24:55,367 --> 00:24:56,867
[Brian] At this point,
I think we're pretty much
633
00:24:56,867 --> 00:24:58,166
-tapped out on funds.
-Yeah.
634
00:24:58,166 --> 00:25:00,800
So we're going to keep
our fingers and toes cross
635
00:25:00,867 --> 00:25:04,567
and hope that this is the end
of the unexpected things
that they find.
636
00:25:09,367 --> 00:25:10,800
[Drew] No turning back now.
637
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,100
First order of business
is prepping
the temporary walls
638
00:25:13,166 --> 00:25:13,814
that need to support
the whole weight
639
00:25:13,814 --> 00:25:14,500
that need to support
the whole weight
640
00:25:14,567 --> 00:25:16,166
of the second story
of the house
641
00:25:16,166 --> 00:25:20,066
while we perform
some major surgery
on the posts and beams.
642
00:25:20,066 --> 00:25:21,100
[Jonathan]
And the challenge is,
643
00:25:21,166 --> 00:25:23,166
the structure
the engineer is calling for
644
00:25:23,166 --> 00:25:25,867
means that we're going
to push a beam
up into the ceiling.
645
00:25:25,867 --> 00:25:27,667
No plumbing
can go through there.
646
00:25:27,667 --> 00:25:30,266
[Drew] So we also have
an incredible amount
of rerouting to do.
647
00:25:30,266 --> 00:25:32,600
Water lines, drains,
waste, HVAC.
648
00:25:32,667 --> 00:25:34,400
Not to mention,
all the electrical.
649
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,166
[Jonathan] We're gonna
be putting in a new post
to carry all of the load.
650
00:25:37,166 --> 00:25:40,567
Massive beams, massive posts.
It's a huge undertaking.
651
00:25:40,567 --> 00:25:42,967
But so worth it to make sure
Brian and Lily's home
652
00:25:42,967 --> 00:25:43,814
is finally safe
and secure forever.
653
00:25:43,814 --> 00:25:44,367
is finally safe
and secure forever.
654
00:25:48,500 --> 00:25:50,300
[Jonathan] With the house
now properly supported,
655
00:25:50,367 --> 00:25:51,967
we can all
breathe a sigh of relief,
656
00:25:51,967 --> 00:25:54,200
and focus
on the less stressful
design finishes.
657
00:25:54,266 --> 00:25:56,700
[Drew] We're freshening up
the fireplace,
and if we're careful,
658
00:25:56,767 --> 00:25:58,867
we can save them some money
on the design.
659
00:25:58,867 --> 00:26:00,700
-It's in here pretty solid.
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
660
00:26:00,700 --> 00:26:03,700
We do not want to damage...
I don't think we actually
need to take the surround off.
661
00:26:03,767 --> 00:26:05,467
We just need to take
this trim off,
662
00:26:05,467 --> 00:26:06,567
pop the stone out.
663
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,367
We're keeping the fireplace
and keeping the mantel.
664
00:26:08,367 --> 00:26:11,000
Then we'll add
a Spanish-inspired tile
to make it pop.
665
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,166
There is no money
to replace all of this.
666
00:26:13,166 --> 00:26:15,266
All of the money
is going into the kitchen
and the structure.
667
00:26:15,266 --> 00:26:16,336
[Drew] We have a good idea
of what we want
from the inspiration tour,
668
00:26:16,336 --> 00:26:17,667
[Drew] We have a good idea
of what we want
from the inspiration tour,
669
00:26:17,667 --> 00:26:19,467
so we just need
to fine-tune our choices.
670
00:26:19,467 --> 00:26:23,166
We can totally take
this house away
from that builder basic grays
671
00:26:23,166 --> 00:26:26,100
and make this
a very personalized aesthetic
that speaks to them.
672
00:26:28,166 --> 00:26:29,567
We should talk tile
673
00:26:29,567 --> 00:26:32,667
because Lily wants
something that is sort
of a Spanish influence,
674
00:26:32,667 --> 00:26:34,166
so a little bit
of color or pattern.
675
00:26:34,166 --> 00:26:36,667
That could be in the kitchen,
it could be
around the fireplace.
676
00:26:36,667 --> 00:26:40,100
-[Drew] So,
something like this.
-[Drew] Something subtle.
677
00:26:40,166 --> 00:26:43,100
They just want something
that's nice but not too busy.
678
00:26:43,166 --> 00:26:45,166
-[Jonathan] So that's
for the fireplace surround.
-[Drew] Yeah.
679
00:26:45,166 --> 00:26:46,336
-Something like that.
-[Drew] And then,
680
00:26:46,336 --> 00:26:46,500
-Something like that.
-[Drew] And then,
681
00:26:46,567 --> 00:26:48,367
we can kind of play
with how you build
the pattern on it.
682
00:26:48,367 --> 00:26:50,567
It's not like they want
a Spanish look
through the entire house,
683
00:26:50,567 --> 00:26:52,700
so having something
like the fireplace
with that is great.
684
00:26:52,767 --> 00:26:56,100
But what do you think about
where the range is
or for the backsplash?
685
00:26:56,100 --> 00:26:57,467
We can keep that
a little more classic.
686
00:26:57,467 --> 00:27:00,567
If we went maybe
a little more like mosaic...
687
00:27:00,567 --> 00:27:02,767
-[Drew] Mmm-hmm.
-Do this guy.
688
00:27:02,767 --> 00:27:04,066
-[Drew] Mmm-hmm, okay.
-[Jonathan] It's a little...
689
00:27:04,066 --> 00:27:06,000
Either that or we do
something more like that
690
00:27:06,066 --> 00:27:07,700
that's just a clean,
sort of square mosaic.
691
00:27:07,767 --> 00:27:10,100
I mean, I do like
kind of those warmer tones
throughout.
692
00:27:10,166 --> 00:27:11,266
[Drew] That's nice, except for
693
00:27:11,266 --> 00:27:13,700
it depends on the color
we go for with the cabinets.
694
00:27:13,767 --> 00:27:16,336
They wanted white uppers
and blue lowers,
so let's pick the shade.
695
00:27:16,336 --> 00:27:17,100
They wanted white uppers
and blue lowers,
so let's pick the shade.
696
00:27:17,100 --> 00:27:19,100
[Jonathan] Mmm. I like
this light blue.
697
00:27:19,166 --> 00:27:21,100
We could do that on the island
and on the bar.
698
00:27:21,166 --> 00:27:25,100
That's the nice thing,
you have this beautiful
tile hood backsplash
699
00:27:25,100 --> 00:27:28,100
over in the bar area
having the pop of color
with wallpaper.
700
00:27:28,166 --> 00:27:30,200
Now you're creating
these zones of interest.
701
00:27:30,266 --> 00:27:33,867
[Drew] Yes,
color and interest.
No more boring cookie-cutter.
702
00:27:33,867 --> 00:27:34,867
[Jonathan] Oh, that's not bad.
703
00:27:34,867 --> 00:27:36,266
[Drew] More of a watercolor
kind of a look.
704
00:27:36,266 --> 00:27:39,266
-I like that.
-[Jonathan] Boom,
yes, we have that. Oh, good.
705
00:27:39,266 --> 00:27:41,967
Do we have everything?
Maybe some fabrics?
706
00:27:41,967 --> 00:27:43,300
What do you think?
707
00:27:43,367 --> 00:27:46,336
I like the idea
of introducing, like,
camel colors and, like,
708
00:27:46,336 --> 00:27:46,467
I like the idea
of introducing, like,
camel colors and, like,
709
00:27:46,467 --> 00:27:47,667
just something
a little bit richer.
710
00:27:47,667 --> 00:27:49,300
We could do on the chairs...
711
00:27:49,367 --> 00:27:50,367
Maybe the darker.
712
00:27:50,367 --> 00:27:51,767
-[Jonathan] This one here?
-[Drew] Yeah.
713
00:27:51,767 --> 00:27:53,200
All right.
714
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,500
Something warm and woodsy
to hit that craftsman note
Brian likes.
715
00:27:56,567 --> 00:27:58,000
And then maybe,
716
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,767
if we are looking at, like,
a built-in banquette,
we could do...
717
00:28:00,767 --> 00:28:02,800
I think we keep it
in the blue realm.
718
00:28:02,867 --> 00:28:06,100
Again, some color to liven up
those wood tones.
719
00:28:06,166 --> 00:28:07,900
-What do you prefer?
-[Drew] Mmm...
720
00:28:07,967 --> 00:28:10,266
-Just throw them both
on there.
-[Jonathan] Figure out.
721
00:28:10,266 --> 00:28:11,867
-[Drew grunts] That's it.
-[Jonathan] All right.
722
00:28:11,867 --> 00:28:13,800
I think the kitchen
is gonna be the key component.
723
00:28:13,867 --> 00:28:16,300
Especially now
that we've gotten rid
of that half-wall hurdle,
724
00:28:16,367 --> 00:28:17,600
and everything
will be changing.
725
00:28:17,667 --> 00:28:21,767
We've given
their cookie-cutter home
726
00:28:21,767 --> 00:28:25,900
-a little bit of personality.
-A little person...
A lot of personality.
727
00:28:25,967 --> 00:28:28,500
[Jonathan] With all
of our design and structural
changes behind us,
728
00:28:28,567 --> 00:28:30,667
we can move
ahead cautiously.
729
00:28:30,667 --> 00:28:33,767
The new increased budget
means we need to be
more cost-conscious.
730
00:28:33,767 --> 00:28:37,100
But we still don't wanna
compromise too much
on style and function.
731
00:28:37,100 --> 00:28:38,867
New energy-efficient windows
will look great
732
00:28:38,867 --> 00:28:40,667
and help them save money
in the long-term.
733
00:28:40,667 --> 00:28:43,800
Reducing the size
of the old patio doors
in the former bedroom
734
00:28:43,867 --> 00:28:45,567
will allow
for far more function
735
00:28:45,567 --> 00:28:46,336
with extended cabinets
and countertop space.
736
00:28:46,336 --> 00:28:48,800
with extended cabinets
and countertop space.
737
00:28:48,867 --> 00:28:51,700
[in Austrian accent]
Ugh, Drew so strong.
738
00:28:51,767 --> 00:28:54,800
I put this in front of you
and then win lifting contest.
739
00:28:54,867 --> 00:28:57,367
[Jonathan] Can you pull
the, the bottom toward you
just a tiny bit?
740
00:28:57,367 --> 00:28:58,367
[in normal voice] The top?
741
00:28:59,100 --> 00:29:00,200
[Jonathan] The bottom.
742
00:29:00,266 --> 00:29:02,400
-[Drew chuckles]
-Why do you mess with me?
743
00:29:02,467 --> 00:29:04,200
It's just so easy sometimes.
744
00:29:04,266 --> 00:29:06,367
You know why
I'm Mom's favorite?
745
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:08,767
I'm less annoying.
746
00:29:08,767 --> 00:29:10,300
You can let go.
747
00:29:10,367 --> 00:29:13,000
I can go home?
Awesome, thank you.
748
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,336
-[drilling]
-Sometimes things are just
easier without Drew anyway.
749
00:29:16,336 --> 00:29:17,066
-[drilling]
-Sometimes things are just
easier without Drew anyway.
750
00:29:17,066 --> 00:29:20,700
One thing I don't need
Drew's help with
is the new dog door for Moose.
751
00:29:20,767 --> 00:29:22,800
He's a big part
of Brian and Lily's family,
752
00:29:22,867 --> 00:29:24,400
and he needs better function
in this house
753
00:29:24,467 --> 00:29:26,200
so he can come and go
as he pleases.
754
00:29:27,100 --> 00:29:29,066
[howling]
755
00:29:33,467 --> 00:29:35,266
[Jonathan] With the new
support beam and post
now successfully installed,
756
00:29:35,266 --> 00:29:37,300
we can take down
the temporary walls.
757
00:29:37,367 --> 00:29:39,066
I keep thinking
I've seen it all,
758
00:29:39,066 --> 00:29:40,867
[chuckling] but then,
it was a bit of a shock
759
00:29:40,934 --> 00:29:42,266
to find all
the hidden plumbing
760
00:29:42,266 --> 00:29:44,567
and knowing
that the undersized tiny post
761
00:29:44,567 --> 00:29:47,367
was the main thing
holding up the second story.
762
00:29:47,367 --> 00:29:50,967
We had to go $10K
over their max budget
to fix these issues,
763
00:29:50,967 --> 00:29:53,467
and it caused me
some serious design headaches.
764
00:29:53,467 --> 00:29:57,266
But I can now rest easy
knowing that the house
is safe and secure,
765
00:29:57,266 --> 00:30:00,266
and we can continue
with all the major
rerouting of utilities,
766
00:30:00,266 --> 00:30:01,478
and get started
on the insulation.
767
00:30:01,478 --> 00:30:02,667
and get started
on the insulation.
768
00:30:02,667 --> 00:30:05,266
When we found out
the enormous post had to stay,
769
00:30:05,266 --> 00:30:08,567
I was worried because
it would stand out like
a giant elephant in the room.
770
00:30:08,567 --> 00:30:11,200
But this design challenge
actually kind of
worked in our favor.
771
00:30:11,266 --> 00:30:13,567
I integrated the post
into the new bar area.
772
00:30:13,567 --> 00:30:15,266
You would never know
it was there.
773
00:30:15,266 --> 00:30:18,467
And now the space has
a lot more perks to offer
than just cold drinks.
774
00:30:18,467 --> 00:30:20,600
This actually
turned out beautifully.
775
00:30:20,667 --> 00:30:23,734
Bigger pantry,
bar area built in,
776
00:30:23,734 --> 00:30:25,934
everything's tucked back
as tight as possible,
777
00:30:25,934 --> 00:30:28,600
and it gave us
even more storage
778
00:30:28,667 --> 00:30:30,066
-which is a benefit.
-[Gus] Yes, yeah.
779
00:30:30,066 --> 00:30:31,478
And once we get
the drywall on there,
780
00:30:31,478 --> 00:30:32,133
And once we get
the drywall on there,
781
00:30:32,133 --> 00:30:33,867
-it'll give you
a sense of style too.
-[Gus] Yeah.
782
00:30:33,934 --> 00:30:36,100
[Jonathan] Okay,
let's bring in some flooring.
783
00:30:36,100 --> 00:30:39,266
Newlyweds Brian and Lily
wanted to start
their new life together
784
00:30:39,266 --> 00:30:40,867
renovating their
forever home.
785
00:30:40,867 --> 00:30:44,066
But their house is a long way
from experiencing
marital bliss.
786
00:30:44,066 --> 00:30:46,734
With the structure repaired
and the utilities installed,
787
00:30:46,734 --> 00:30:50,033
we can now start
closing up the walls
and putting down the flooring.
788
00:30:50,033 --> 00:30:51,734
I want everything
to be perfect
789
00:30:51,734 --> 00:30:54,367
and that even includes
the direction of the boards.
790
00:30:54,367 --> 00:30:55,834
Whoa, Gus junior.
791
00:30:55,834 --> 00:30:57,600
-[Gus chuckling] Yes.
-[Jonathan]
It's Dillan, right?
792
00:30:57,667 --> 00:30:59,600
-[Jonathan] Dillan, all right.
Good to meet you.
-[Gus] Yeah.
793
00:30:59,667 --> 00:31:01,478
Okay, so we've got
the luxury vinyl.
794
00:31:01,478 --> 00:31:01,500
Okay, so we've got
the luxury vinyl.
795
00:31:01,567 --> 00:31:03,834
They want that durability,
the wearability.
796
00:31:03,834 --> 00:31:08,133
But we also have
a decision to make
as far as direction.
797
00:31:08,133 --> 00:31:11,867
So, it always looks
slightly less attractive
798
00:31:11,867 --> 00:31:14,300
when all of your boards
terminate
799
00:31:14,367 --> 00:31:15,600
-into a doorway.
-Into a door.
800
00:31:15,667 --> 00:31:18,033
If we go this way,
all of our doors
801
00:31:18,033 --> 00:31:21,567
-will have a nice clean
aesthetic there.
-[Gus] Okay.
802
00:31:21,567 --> 00:31:25,467
Sometimes, it's nicer
for the fireplace feature
or an island
803
00:31:25,467 --> 00:31:27,367
just to go along with it.
804
00:31:27,367 --> 00:31:29,367
-So you want the clean edge
on the fireplace.
-[Gus] Yeah.
805
00:31:29,367 --> 00:31:30,634
-And the island.
-[Gus] And the island.
806
00:31:30,667 --> 00:31:31,478
-No we have a--
-And I'm saying
front door and back door.
807
00:31:31,478 --> 00:31:33,266
-No we have a--
-And I'm saying
front door and back door.
808
00:31:33,266 --> 00:31:34,834
-[Gus] Yes.
-Okay.
809
00:31:34,834 --> 00:31:37,767
-We have a third party here
that can decide.
-[Jonathan] Yeah, hold on.
810
00:31:37,834 --> 00:31:39,367
-There's no right or wrong.
-Yeah.
811
00:31:39,367 --> 00:31:41,200
[Jonathan] You go with what
makes the most sense.
812
00:31:41,266 --> 00:31:42,367
So what do you think?
813
00:31:43,767 --> 00:31:47,066
-Um, you are my father.
-Thank you.
814
00:31:47,066 --> 00:31:49,066
-Thanks.
-But I'm gonna
go with Jonathan.
815
00:31:49,066 --> 00:31:52,600
-[cheering] Yeah! It actually
worked in my favor.
-Betrayal!
816
00:31:52,667 --> 00:31:54,100
[Jonathan] Do I have
to pay you off
or anything like that?
817
00:31:54,100 --> 00:31:55,500
-No need.
-[Jonathan] Okay, cool.
818
00:31:55,500 --> 00:31:57,467
Well, I'll grab more boxes
but now we know
which way we're going.
819
00:31:57,467 --> 00:31:59,033
-Okay.
-[all laughing]
820
00:31:59,033 --> 00:32:01,478
[chuckling] While Dillan
patches up his father's
wounded design pride,
821
00:32:01,478 --> 00:32:02,767
[chuckling] While Dillan
patches up his father's
wounded design pride,
822
00:32:02,834 --> 00:32:04,967
we're busy patching up
the rest of the walls
823
00:32:04,967 --> 00:32:07,266
that we had to open up
to reroute the utilities.
824
00:32:07,266 --> 00:32:08,767
With the direction
decided,
825
00:32:08,767 --> 00:32:11,400
we can now put in all
our luxury vinyl
wood-look flooring
826
00:32:11,467 --> 00:32:14,567
to give it
a consistent look throughout
the whole main floor.
827
00:32:14,567 --> 00:32:17,166
The old kitchen was so tiny
and closed off.
828
00:32:17,166 --> 00:32:18,767
But with everything open,
829
00:32:18,767 --> 00:32:22,066
we now have so much
wall space to fill
with cabinets and counters.
830
00:32:22,066 --> 00:32:24,500
Having more style and function
was our priority,
831
00:32:24,567 --> 00:32:27,667
and this built-in bar area
is a perfect example of that.
832
00:32:27,734 --> 00:32:30,734
Can you believe that we hide
a big post over there?
833
00:32:30,734 --> 00:32:31,478
-Yeah, I don't know
what you're talking about.
-[Jonathan] Where? What post?
834
00:32:31,478 --> 00:32:32,400
-Yeah, I don't know
what you're talking about.
-[Jonathan] Where? What post?
835
00:32:32,467 --> 00:32:33,934
-There's no post.
-[laughing] No,
there's no post.
836
00:32:33,934 --> 00:32:36,734
Stop making stuff up.
Nobody... It's our secret.
837
00:32:36,734 --> 00:32:38,200
Oh, there you go.
838
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,266
You literally think that this
has always been here,
looking at this.
839
00:32:40,266 --> 00:32:41,467
-Yeah.
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
840
00:32:41,467 --> 00:32:44,166
Well, you have
an extra pantry, closet,
we hid the post.
841
00:32:44,166 --> 00:32:45,166
This is purposeful.
842
00:32:45,166 --> 00:32:46,967
They love to entertain, so...
843
00:32:46,967 --> 00:32:49,000
Everything about this house,
844
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:50,500
the better use of this space
for the kitchen,
845
00:32:50,567 --> 00:32:52,166
it just speaks
to what they want.
846
00:32:52,166 --> 00:32:54,033
It's gonna be fun
actually 'cause
847
00:32:54,033 --> 00:32:56,133
we'll set this up,
we'll dress it
so it's beautiful,
848
00:32:56,133 --> 00:32:58,600
but this will be
like the celebration hub.
849
00:32:58,667 --> 00:32:59,867
-Oh, of course.
-[Drew] Oh, yeah.
850
00:32:59,867 --> 00:33:01,478
[Jonathan] Especially when
we add a pop of color
851
00:33:01,478 --> 00:33:01,667
[Jonathan] Especially when
we add a pop of color
852
00:33:01,667 --> 00:33:03,133
with the wallpaper
on the back.
853
00:33:03,133 --> 00:33:06,467
I feel like adding
these little custom touches
854
00:33:06,467 --> 00:33:08,300
is what makes
the space feel special.
855
00:33:08,367 --> 00:33:12,133
It makes it feel like
a fully custom home
and it's gonna look gorgeous.
856
00:33:12,133 --> 00:33:13,667
[Jonathan] Another area
we can add some flair
857
00:33:13,734 --> 00:33:16,667
to reflect Brian and Lily's
unique and artistic
personalities
858
00:33:16,734 --> 00:33:18,100
is their fireplace.
859
00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:19,934
We wanted to keep
the existing mantel,
860
00:33:19,934 --> 00:33:21,667
but remove
the dated stone surround
861
00:33:21,734 --> 00:33:23,500
so we can give it
a little more personality.
862
00:33:23,567 --> 00:33:25,300
By putting something in
like this tile,
863
00:33:25,367 --> 00:33:28,767
I think it kind of bridges
the gap between the two,
pays an homage to both,
864
00:33:28,834 --> 00:33:31,478
but blends it seamlessly
together so they both get
what they want.
865
00:33:31,478 --> 00:33:31,500
but blends it seamlessly
together so they both get
what they want.
866
00:33:31,567 --> 00:33:35,767
Yeah, this is
a Spanishly crafty design.
867
00:33:35,834 --> 00:33:38,367
[Jonathan] And we saved
money keeping their
perfectly good mantel.
868
00:33:38,367 --> 00:33:40,266
-[Drew] Looking good.
-[Jonathan] Uh-huh.
869
00:33:40,266 --> 00:33:41,667
I'm telling you,
when this is done,
870
00:33:42,734 --> 00:33:45,133
it's gonna be
a thing of art.
871
00:33:48,567 --> 00:33:50,734
I think Brian and Lily
are getting everything
they want
872
00:33:50,734 --> 00:33:52,000
to make this
their forever home,
873
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,767
but are we doing enough
for Moose?
874
00:33:53,767 --> 00:33:57,200
[Jonathan] Uh, Moose has
his very own VIP doggy door.
875
00:33:57,266 --> 00:33:58,200
[Jonathan howling]
876
00:33:58,200 --> 00:33:59,333
[Drew] And you said
that they liked
877
00:33:59,367 --> 00:34:01,478
the little puppy station
at the inspiration tour.
878
00:34:01,478 --> 00:34:02,100
the little puppy station
at the inspiration tour.
879
00:34:02,100 --> 00:34:05,834
Moose is getting his very own
eat-in puppy cubby.
880
00:34:05,834 --> 00:34:09,367
Right, but what about,
like, a doggy zipline
881
00:34:09,367 --> 00:34:11,367
that goes, you know,
from the back deck
all the way down
882
00:34:11,367 --> 00:34:13,367
-to the park?
-That's a terrible idea.
883
00:34:13,367 --> 00:34:16,033
[Drew] We had a lot
of issues with the structure
of the house.
884
00:34:16,033 --> 00:34:18,266
And it's not about
to let me off easy.
885
00:34:18,266 --> 00:34:19,467
In the former bedroom,
886
00:34:19,467 --> 00:34:22,166
we reduced the double
patio doors to a single door
887
00:34:22,166 --> 00:34:24,400
to make more room
for kitchen cabinets.
888
00:34:24,467 --> 00:34:26,033
We had to amend
our building permit
889
00:34:26,033 --> 00:34:28,867
and that's now
holding up our final approval.
890
00:34:28,934 --> 00:34:30,266
Oh, you might not
have realized this,
891
00:34:30,266 --> 00:34:31,478
I think you, uh,
missed a spot
with the drywall.
892
00:34:31,478 --> 00:34:33,000
I think you, uh,
missed a spot
with the drywall.
893
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,066
[Jonathan] I, uh,
I missed you!
894
00:34:35,066 --> 00:34:39,000
So we've had final
on almost everything,
except this.
895
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:40,000
We have to wait.
896
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,667
I understand
if you're changing something
897
00:34:41,667 --> 00:34:44,166
as in you're doing new things
you hadn't done before,
898
00:34:44,166 --> 00:34:47,734
but when it's just taking
the door down from a slider
to a, a single swing,
899
00:34:47,734 --> 00:34:49,066
I didn't think
you would have to do that.
900
00:34:49,066 --> 00:34:51,567
But here,
because we were changing
the size of it,
901
00:34:51,567 --> 00:34:53,300
even though we're using
the same structure,
902
00:34:53,367 --> 00:34:55,066
they still said
they want that so...
903
00:34:55,066 --> 00:34:56,467
[Drew] I know what it is.
904
00:34:56,467 --> 00:35:00,100
I called the city and said,
"Guys, Jonathan loves
extra steps.
905
00:35:00,100 --> 00:35:01,478
Can we give him an extra step
somewhere just to really
make sure he's enjoying
906
00:35:01,478 --> 00:35:03,467
Can we give him an extra step
somewhere just to really
make sure he's enjoying
907
00:35:03,467 --> 00:35:05,166
-this process?"
-I'm gonna need
extra therapy.
908
00:35:05,166 --> 00:35:06,567
So the house will be done
909
00:35:06,567 --> 00:35:08,066
-except for this wall.
-Except this.
910
00:35:08,066 --> 00:35:09,233
[Jonathan] The interesting
thing though is
911
00:35:09,233 --> 00:35:11,567
the city said that anything
that affects the exterior
912
00:35:11,567 --> 00:35:13,000
is gonna require
a permit here.
913
00:35:13,033 --> 00:35:15,467
Yet they didn't ask
for a permit when it comes
to the puppy door.
914
00:35:15,467 --> 00:35:16,734
Shh. Don't bring it up.
915
00:35:16,734 --> 00:35:18,467
Shh. [whooshes]
916
00:35:21,467 --> 00:35:23,000
[Jonathan] Good news.
917
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,300
The city finally
approved the permit
for the new kitchen door,
918
00:35:25,367 --> 00:35:27,166
so we can close up
the walls around it.
919
00:35:27,166 --> 00:35:29,767
And begin the very busy push
to the end of the reno.
920
00:35:29,834 --> 00:35:31,478
All the final finishes
are going into the kitchen
921
00:35:31,478 --> 00:35:32,133
All the final finishes
are going into the kitchen
922
00:35:32,133 --> 00:35:34,934
including tiling inside
of Moose's dog dish nook,
923
00:35:34,934 --> 00:35:37,066
and trimming out
all the focal points.
924
00:35:37,066 --> 00:35:40,266
Lily likes the pop
of color she sees
in Spanish style designs.
925
00:35:40,266 --> 00:35:43,467
So we're adding that
with some contrasting
blue and white cabinets
926
00:35:43,467 --> 00:35:45,000
and two-toned countertops.
927
00:35:45,033 --> 00:35:47,667
Black around
the perimeter cabinets
and white for the island.
928
00:35:47,734 --> 00:35:50,600
All surrounded by new
stainless steel appliances.
929
00:35:50,667 --> 00:35:53,367
[Drew] We want Brian
and Lily's home to feel fun
and contemporary,
930
00:35:53,367 --> 00:35:55,667
and reflect their cool
and creative personalities.
931
00:35:55,667 --> 00:35:58,000
[Jonathan]
They're young newlyweds
and they both love music.
932
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,266
So we want them to walk in
and feel inspired.
933
00:36:09,500 --> 00:36:12,166
-[Drew] All righty,
this is probably the last of--
-I have good news.
934
00:36:12,166 --> 00:36:14,367
-[Drew] Hmm?
-[Jonathan] We actually have
a finished space over here.
935
00:36:14,367 --> 00:36:16,266
[chuckling] I thought
we would get
936
00:36:16,266 --> 00:36:19,266
to finishing touches and then,
all of a sudden,
still have an open wall.
937
00:36:19,266 --> 00:36:20,667
Some things
keep me up at night,
938
00:36:20,667 --> 00:36:22,400
and this not being finished
definitely did.
939
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,066
[Jonathan] Look how cute
Moose is.
940
00:36:25,066 --> 00:36:27,834
-[Drew] Gotta have
our pup pics.
-[Jonathan] Yeah, so good.
941
00:36:31,734 --> 00:36:32,567
Muah.
942
00:36:33,266 --> 00:36:34,300
[Drew] Okay.
943
00:36:35,100 --> 00:36:36,133
How you feeling
about the space?
944
00:36:36,133 --> 00:36:38,066
I think everything
is officially here.
945
00:36:38,066 --> 00:36:41,033
This house that had
no real character
946
00:36:41,033 --> 00:36:44,400
perfectly fits things
that are important to them
like the piano.
947
00:36:44,467 --> 00:36:46,467
This place feels like
a nice big warm hug.
948
00:36:46,467 --> 00:36:49,500
And even just the fireplace
surround being changed,
949
00:36:49,567 --> 00:36:51,266
feels so much
more elegant now.
950
00:36:51,266 --> 00:36:53,266
-Do you love it?
-Hey, wait.
951
00:36:53,767 --> 00:36:54,700
[whooshes]
952
00:36:55,867 --> 00:36:57,400
-[Drew grunts]
-Your timing's always off.
953
00:36:57,467 --> 00:36:58,934
[whooshing]
954
00:37:00,266 --> 00:37:01,478
Ha, ha! There we go.
Let's go get Brian and Lily.
955
00:37:01,478 --> 00:37:02,934
Ha, ha! There we go.
Let's go get Brian and Lily.
956
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,367
[in sing-song voice]
I cannot wait to see.
957
00:37:09,367 --> 00:37:11,567
Yeah, I'm so excited
to see the kitchen.
958
00:37:11,567 --> 00:37:12,734
-That kitchen was so small.
-[Lily] Yep.
959
00:37:12,734 --> 00:37:13,867
[Brian] I'm sure
this is gonna be amazing.
960
00:37:13,867 --> 00:37:14,934
[Drew] Yeah.
Couple things
have changed.
961
00:37:14,934 --> 00:37:16,767
[Brian] Oh, I love it.
I'm so excited.
962
00:37:18,667 --> 00:37:19,767
-[Brian chuckling]
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
963
00:37:25,567 --> 00:37:28,567
-[Brian chuckling]
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
964
00:37:28,567 --> 00:37:30,233
Whoa!
965
00:37:30,233 --> 00:37:33,500
-[Brian chuckling] Oh.
-[Lily laughing] Wow.
966
00:37:33,567 --> 00:37:35,967
-You literally did the "oh".
-[Brian laughing]
967
00:37:35,967 --> 00:37:37,667
Stop it, this is amazing.
968
00:37:37,734 --> 00:37:39,133
[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
969
00:37:39,133 --> 00:37:41,500
Wow, look how open it is.
970
00:37:41,567 --> 00:37:44,867
And wow,
this is a true transformation.
971
00:37:44,934 --> 00:37:46,266
[Brian] Oh, this is amazing.
972
00:37:46,266 --> 00:37:47,834
You look like
a kid on Christmas.
973
00:37:48,266 --> 00:37:49,767
Santa was here?
974
00:37:49,767 --> 00:37:51,767
-I just, I wanna know
what you did with my house.
-[laughing] Yeah.
975
00:37:51,834 --> 00:37:52,949
-This is not our house,
this is amazing.
-Wow.
976
00:37:52,949 --> 00:37:54,166
-This is not our house,
this is amazing.
-Wow.
977
00:37:54,233 --> 00:37:56,500
You guys picked
an incredible home.
978
00:37:56,567 --> 00:37:59,266
It was lacking
some personality.
979
00:37:59,266 --> 00:38:01,133
I mean,
it's not a massive space.
980
00:38:01,133 --> 00:38:03,567
But we were keeping
the elements that were
actually quite nice,
981
00:38:03,567 --> 00:38:04,834
trying to dress it up with...
982
00:38:04,834 --> 00:38:06,567
-We know you love
that Spanish influence.
-[Lily] Mmm-hmm.
983
00:38:06,567 --> 00:38:08,467
[Drew] So giving you
a little bit
of that feel here.
984
00:38:08,467 --> 00:38:11,166
-Getting rid
of the half-wall...
-[Brian] Yeah.
985
00:38:11,233 --> 00:38:12,400
-[Lily] Yeah.
-...and connecting
the spaces.
986
00:38:12,467 --> 00:38:15,367
It's unbelievable,
I mean, it's just so open
987
00:38:15,367 --> 00:38:17,233
compared to where
it was before.
988
00:38:17,233 --> 00:38:20,367
And it feels like
all the space is usable.
989
00:38:20,367 --> 00:38:22,949
And the crazy thing is
it feels bigger here.
990
00:38:22,949 --> 00:38:23,667
And the crazy thing is
it feels bigger here.
991
00:38:23,734 --> 00:38:27,567
This is where we had to hide
the massive post
992
00:38:27,567 --> 00:38:29,600
-in order to open
everything up.
-[Lily] Mmm.
993
00:38:29,667 --> 00:38:32,500
-[Brian] Okay.
-We knew you loved
the idea of a bar.
994
00:38:32,567 --> 00:38:34,266
-[Lily] Look at this
beautiful bar.
-[Brian] Oh, my God.
995
00:38:34,266 --> 00:38:37,133
-This bar is amazing.
Look at this.
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
996
00:38:37,133 --> 00:38:40,033
-I love these countertops too.
-Yeah, this is
a really nice color.
997
00:38:40,033 --> 00:38:41,567
[Brian] I love
the open shelving
998
00:38:41,567 --> 00:38:43,600
with the blue color
matching the bottoms.
999
00:38:43,667 --> 00:38:46,767
I think it looks incredible
and that wallpaper
is stunning.
1000
00:38:46,834 --> 00:38:49,367
It technically is
the center of the home,
the heart of the home,
1001
00:38:49,367 --> 00:38:51,934
so we want to make sure
that it looks really great.
1002
00:38:51,934 --> 00:38:52,949
-This now feels so expansive.
-[Brian and Lily] Yeah.
1003
00:38:52,949 --> 00:38:54,667
-This now feels so expansive.
-[Brian and Lily] Yeah.
1004
00:38:54,667 --> 00:38:56,133
And so open.
1005
00:38:56,133 --> 00:38:59,467
So with this view,
it's just such a more
beautiful space to be in.
1006
00:38:59,467 --> 00:39:01,667
-[Jonathan] Even
your floors are...
-[Lily] I love it.
1007
00:39:01,667 --> 00:39:02,967
-...extremely durable.
-[Lily] Yep.
1008
00:39:02,967 --> 00:39:04,133
-[Brian] I love it.
-[Jonathan] Will last through
1009
00:39:04,133 --> 00:39:05,667
all the traffic
that you throw at it.
1010
00:39:05,734 --> 00:39:09,033
Your guests will walk in
and they'll be
blown away as well
1011
00:39:09,033 --> 00:39:10,433
at the setup
for your dinner parties.
1012
00:39:10,433 --> 00:39:12,467
[Lily] Yeah, they're not
gonna believe what
they're walking into.
1013
00:39:12,467 --> 00:39:13,500
-[Jonathan] Here, have a seat.
-Have a seat.
1014
00:39:13,567 --> 00:39:15,166
-Enjoy your dining space.
-Thank you.
1015
00:39:15,233 --> 00:39:19,467
[Jonathan] This is just
the perfect spot
for a great dining table.
1016
00:39:19,467 --> 00:39:21,834
You can still have
your sight lines all
through the entire space.
1017
00:39:21,834 --> 00:39:22,767
[Lily] Yep.
1018
00:39:22,767 --> 00:39:22,949
Before, I think Lily
would agree,
1019
00:39:22,949 --> 00:39:24,667
Before, I think Lily
would agree,
1020
00:39:24,734 --> 00:39:27,033
there was no way we were
ever gonna host family here.
1021
00:39:27,033 --> 00:39:28,667
-[Lily] Mmm-hmm.
-[Brian] And we kinda had
a dining room
1022
00:39:28,734 --> 00:39:30,934
and we sort of had
a living room and now,
1023
00:39:30,934 --> 00:39:33,567
it's like, I don't know
if I have enough friends
1024
00:39:33,567 --> 00:39:35,033
-to fill up this space.
[laughing]
-[Lily laughing]
1025
00:39:35,033 --> 00:39:36,100
[all laughing]
1026
00:39:36,100 --> 00:39:38,834
You cannot throw
an incredible dinner party
1027
00:39:38,834 --> 00:39:41,266
unless you have an incredible
kitchen like this.
1028
00:39:41,266 --> 00:39:43,667
-Oh, my goodness.
-[Brian exclaims]
1029
00:39:43,734 --> 00:39:46,000
[Lily] Look how
massive this is.
1030
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:47,266
-Brian?
-This looks amazing.
1031
00:39:47,266 --> 00:39:48,767
-Look at this!
-[all laughing]
1032
00:39:48,767 --> 00:39:50,767
-[Lily] What is it?
-[Drew] That's for Moose.
1033
00:39:50,834 --> 00:39:52,500
[Brian] That's amazing.
1034
00:39:52,567 --> 00:39:52,949
-Well, you said
Moose is family.
-[Brian] Yes.
1035
00:39:52,949 --> 00:39:54,166
-Well, you said
Moose is family.
-[Brian] Yes.
1036
00:39:54,166 --> 00:39:56,467
So, you wanted this to be
a spot for him too.
1037
00:39:56,467 --> 00:39:57,834
-[both] Yeah.
-[Jonathan] One thing as well,
1038
00:39:57,834 --> 00:40:00,300
you wanna make sure
he can go inside and out
anytime he wants,
1039
00:40:00,367 --> 00:40:02,467
so, I love,
he's got his own door.
1040
00:40:02,467 --> 00:40:03,467
-Built in fully.
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
1041
00:40:03,467 --> 00:40:05,400
-Amazing.
-So little stuff for Moose,
1042
00:40:05,467 --> 00:40:07,266
-little stuff for you guys.
-[Brian] Yeah.
1043
00:40:07,266 --> 00:40:11,000
[Lily] Oh, the two tone
blends in so nicely
1044
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,467
-and this is huge.
-[Brian] Yeah.
1045
00:40:12,467 --> 00:40:14,767
Could you imagine having
an island like this before?
1046
00:40:14,834 --> 00:40:17,266
-[Brian chuckles] No.
-[Lily] Basically impossible.
1047
00:40:17,266 --> 00:40:19,567
-[all laughing]
-[Brian] I mean where
we're standing right now,
1048
00:40:19,567 --> 00:40:20,867
-what was here before.
-[Lily] Right.
1049
00:40:20,867 --> 00:40:22,467
-[Brian] This wall.
-Every plumbing line
1050
00:40:22,467 --> 00:40:22,949
-in the city.
-[Brian laughing]
1051
00:40:22,949 --> 00:40:24,266
-in the city.
-[Brian laughing]
1052
00:40:24,266 --> 00:40:28,500
[Jonathan] I could not believe
how much was inside that wall.
1053
00:40:28,567 --> 00:40:32,166
[Brian] It's magically
disappeared into the walls.
It's incredible.
1054
00:40:32,166 --> 00:40:33,667
[Drew] Well, it did cost us
a little bit more,
1055
00:40:33,734 --> 00:40:35,467
but sometimes it's worth
spending a bit more
1056
00:40:35,467 --> 00:40:37,467
because at the end of the day,
this is what you need.
1057
00:40:37,467 --> 00:40:38,867
-It was worth every penny.
-Absolutely.
1058
00:40:38,867 --> 00:40:41,567
This is exactly how the flow
and the layout of this
1059
00:40:41,567 --> 00:40:43,567
should have been
all along, I think.
1060
00:40:43,567 --> 00:40:46,567
[Jonathan] Like just imagine
how much easier it's gonna be
to be able to cook in this.
1061
00:40:46,567 --> 00:40:47,867
[Lily] Absolutely.
1062
00:40:47,867 --> 00:40:49,567
-Oh, look how deep
the sink is.
-[Brian] Yes.
1063
00:40:49,567 --> 00:40:50,567
-So much better.
-[Lily] Yeah.
1064
00:40:50,567 --> 00:40:52,949
It's so much storage here.
1065
00:40:52,949 --> 00:40:53,166
It's so much storage here.
1066
00:40:53,166 --> 00:40:54,567
[Drew] You have
a drawer style microwave.
1067
00:40:54,567 --> 00:40:56,367
Well, you even have
a full coffee station
1068
00:40:56,367 --> 00:40:57,567
-over there.
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
1069
00:40:57,567 --> 00:40:59,066
-[Brian] Oh, that's amazing.
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
1070
00:40:59,066 --> 00:41:00,834
This is the largest fridge
1071
00:41:00,834 --> 00:41:03,233
they probably [chuckling]
sell at the store here.
1072
00:41:03,233 --> 00:41:04,467
Oh, my goodness.
1073
00:41:04,467 --> 00:41:06,467
You also have
a walk-in pantry right here
1074
00:41:06,467 --> 00:41:08,767
-with a whole bunch
of extra shelving storage.
-[Brian] Amazing.
1075
00:41:08,767 --> 00:41:11,166
You have storage galore.
1076
00:41:11,233 --> 00:41:13,066
You have prep space galore.
1077
00:41:13,066 --> 00:41:15,266
You have sight lines galore.
1078
00:41:15,266 --> 00:41:18,266
Well on top of all that though
too, before,
you had no seating.
1079
00:41:18,266 --> 00:41:19,667
-[Brian] None.
-[Drew] It was so limited.
1080
00:41:19,667 --> 00:41:21,300
But now you have
breakfast bar seating.
1081
00:41:21,367 --> 00:41:22,949
-You have a great
entertainment space--
-No, seating galore.
1082
00:41:22,949 --> 00:41:24,166
-You have a great
entertainment space--
-No, seating galore.
1083
00:41:24,166 --> 00:41:26,367
-Seating galore,
everything galore.
-[all laughing]
1084
00:41:26,367 --> 00:41:28,066
[Drew] Yeah,
the dining table's amazing.
1085
00:41:28,100 --> 00:41:31,400
Plus you have this casual
breakfast nook over here
which is pretty awesome.
1086
00:41:31,467 --> 00:41:33,166
It's galor-ious.
1087
00:41:33,166 --> 00:41:35,567
-[Jonathan] Yes, yes.
-Ha, lovely.
1088
00:41:35,567 --> 00:41:38,000
[Lily] This is a space
we'll be in every day.
1089
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,467
And I just love
that where we are right now,
1090
00:41:40,467 --> 00:41:42,367
there used to be
a kitchen sink right there.
1091
00:41:42,367 --> 00:41:44,600
-[Jonathan] This was
the kitchen which is crazy.
-[Brian laughing]
1092
00:41:44,667 --> 00:41:46,300
We're currently
in the entirety
1093
00:41:46,367 --> 00:41:49,000
-of what used to be
our kitchen.
-Yeah, it's pretty surreal.
1094
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,949
This'll be such
a great space for just
breakfast in the morning
1095
00:41:52,949 --> 00:41:53,133
This'll be such
a great space for just
breakfast in the morning
1096
00:41:53,133 --> 00:41:54,400
and having coffee
1097
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,467
and even just
working out of here
is very comfortable.
1098
00:41:57,467 --> 00:41:59,100
And you have the sun coming in
in the morning.
1099
00:41:59,100 --> 00:42:00,467
It's just a great little nook.
1100
00:42:00,467 --> 00:42:02,567
[Jonathan] And when
you sit here and you look up
1101
00:42:02,567 --> 00:42:04,166
-at all these memories.
-[Lily] Oh, my gosh.
1102
00:42:04,166 --> 00:42:06,066
[Brian chuckling]
It's just amazing photos
1103
00:42:06,066 --> 00:42:08,266
-from so many
different places we've been.
-[Lily] Yes.
1104
00:42:08,266 --> 00:42:11,400
-And I love the photo of us
at the wedding with Moose.
-[Lily chuckling] Yeah.
1105
00:42:11,467 --> 00:42:14,567
-I think it's everything
that we wanted and more.
-Mmm-hmm.
1106
00:42:14,567 --> 00:42:17,367
It's amazing, it's amazing.
This space is just incredible.
1107
00:42:17,367 --> 00:42:18,367
I think we celebrate.
1108
00:42:18,367 --> 00:42:20,567
It's just such
a seamless design
1109
00:42:20,567 --> 00:42:22,949
and it's so intentional
of every little pocket,
1110
00:42:22,949 --> 00:42:23,100
and it's so intentional
of every little pocket,
1111
00:42:23,100 --> 00:42:24,467
has been really thought out,
1112
00:42:24,467 --> 00:42:26,467
and it just turned out
so beautiful.
1113
00:42:26,467 --> 00:42:30,300
We're gonna be able to really
grow into the house over time,
1114
00:42:30,367 --> 00:42:31,467
start a family,
1115
00:42:31,467 --> 00:42:33,667
and, um, I think we're just
really looking forward
1116
00:42:33,667 --> 00:42:36,233
to all the things

1122
00:42:46,834 --> 00:42:49,467
...when he comes through.
I think he's gonna be
a little confused originally.
1123
00:42:49,467 --> 00:42:50,867
But once he finds
the treat bowl,
1124
00:42:50,867 --> 00:42:52,949
I think he's gonna be
extremely excited.
1125
00:42:52,949 --> 00:42:53,233
I think he's gonna be
extremely excited.
