1
00:00:01,300 --> 00:00:02,700
Every forever home
has its own story.
2
00:00:02,767 --> 00:00:04,200
-[Drew] And we can't
wait to help tell it.
-[laughing]
3
00:00:04,266 --> 00:00:06,567
It's been in our family,
uh, for generations.
4
00:00:06,567 --> 00:00:08,000
-Let me smash, let me smash!
-Yeah.
5
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:09,100
[man] This is the next step.
6
00:00:09,100 --> 00:00:11,266
[woman] The next
chapter in my life.
7
00:00:11,266 --> 00:00:12,800
-Hi-yah! Whoo!
-[Drew] Love it!
8
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,266
-[Jonathan] After you.
-Welcome home.
9
00:00:16,266 --> 00:00:18,066
-[woman] Oh my goodness!
-[man] Look at this!
10
00:00:18,066 --> 00:00:19,200
-Oh, wow!
-[laughing]
11
00:00:19,266 --> 00:00:20,200
Let's go!
12
00:00:20,266 --> 00:00:21,300
It feels like home.
13
00:00:21,367 --> 00:00:23,000
-Whoa.
-[all laughing]
14
00:00:23,867 --> 00:00:25,266
[Jonathan] Come on
in for group hug!
15
00:00:25,266 --> 00:00:26,467
[laughter]
16
00:00:26,467 --> 00:00:28,166
[upbeat music playing]
17
00:00:31,667 --> 00:00:34,467
[Jonathan] I'm actually
pretty excited to meet
Bill and Emillie.
18
00:00:34,467 --> 00:00:37,767
They dreamed
of having this house
still in the city,
19
00:00:37,767 --> 00:00:41,266
but in a more rural area
that feels like you're
in the country.
20
00:00:41,266 --> 00:00:42,834
It's stunning.
I would love that.
21
00:00:42,834 --> 00:00:45,266
You literally feel
like you should be wearing
a farmer's hat or something.
22
00:00:45,266 --> 00:00:47,200
-Yeah, you can be
right in the city.
-Piece of straw.
23
00:00:47,266 --> 00:00:49,467
-Oh, yeah.
-Chewing on a piece of straw,
wearing a farmer's hat.
24
00:00:49,467 --> 00:00:50,600
Maybe that's their new look.
25
00:00:50,667 --> 00:00:52,467
We met about six years ago.
26
00:00:52,467 --> 00:00:55,066
I was working
at a veterinary clinic
at the time.
27
00:00:55,066 --> 00:00:58,467
I'm a veterinarian myself,
and, uh, she brought
her cat in.
28
00:00:58,467 --> 00:01:00,000
[Emillie] We have
the two cats still,
29
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:00,100
[Emillie] We have
the two cats still,
30
00:01:00,166 --> 00:01:01,000
though they're our love cats
31
00:01:01,867 --> 00:01:03,467
-because they brought Bill
and me together.
-[chuckles] That's right.
32
00:01:03,467 --> 00:01:06,467
[Emillie] And we got married
in 2016
33
00:01:06,467 --> 00:01:09,300
and bought our home here
in 2018.
34
00:01:09,367 --> 00:01:12,800
And then we had our son,
Benjamin, in 2020.
35
00:01:12,867 --> 00:01:15,100
And then we have
another one on the way.
36
00:01:15,166 --> 00:01:16,700
So, our family is growing.
37
00:01:16,767 --> 00:01:19,467
We haven't been here
for a... a very long time,
38
00:01:19,467 --> 00:01:22,000
but I have memories
around every corner
of this house.
39
00:01:22,066 --> 00:01:24,867
[Emillie] Benjamin,
he took his first steps
in this kitchen.
40
00:01:24,867 --> 00:01:27,600
He learned his passion
for cooking in this kitchen.
41
00:01:27,667 --> 00:01:30,000
It's absolutely amazing here,
it feels like us,
42
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:30,600
It's absolutely amazing here,
it feels like us,
43
00:01:30,667 --> 00:01:31,000
and I think we're going
to just continue
to grow into it.
44
00:01:37,567 --> 00:01:39,667
I think Bill and Emillie
are going to have to explain
a few things here.
45
00:01:39,667 --> 00:01:41,767
Because I like the view,
but I'm confused by the house.
46
00:01:41,767 --> 00:01:44,867
That looks like a front door,
but I see trees.
47
00:01:44,867 --> 00:01:46,166
[Drew] Yeah, I see through.
48
00:01:46,166 --> 00:01:47,300
[knocks on door]
49
00:01:47,367 --> 00:01:49,200
-[Drew] Hey.
-[Emillie] Hi!
50
00:01:49,266 --> 00:01:51,300
-[Jonathan] What is
happening here? What...
-[laughs]
51
00:01:51,367 --> 00:01:52,967
[Jonathan] Is this
your front door?
52
00:01:52,967 --> 00:01:54,033
-[Emillie] Oh, it's going
to get even weirder.
-[Bill] Come on in.
53
00:01:54,033 --> 00:01:55,200
It's a little bit more open
than we like.
54
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,200
This is crazy.
When you walk
in your front door,
55
00:01:58,266 --> 00:01:59,867
you're kicked
into the backyard.
56
00:01:59,867 --> 00:02:00,000
Yeah, and we did...
57
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Yeah, and we did...
58
00:02:01,367 --> 00:02:02,767
Okay, we hired somebody
59
00:02:02,767 --> 00:02:04,634
-to do this upper area
and all that.
-[Drew] Oh.
60
00:02:04,634 --> 00:02:06,867
-[Emillie] So, this is, like,
new from when we moved in.
-[Drew] You did a great job.
61
00:02:06,867 --> 00:02:08,100
[Jonathan] Oh,
so you did this.
62
00:02:08,100 --> 00:02:09,266
-[Emillie] Yeah, this is us.
-[Jonathan] Okay, great.
63
00:02:09,266 --> 00:02:10,900
-This was my vision
for my child.
-[Bill] Yeah.
64
00:02:10,967 --> 00:02:12,266
[Jonathan] Yeah.
Well, and... and... and...
65
00:02:12,266 --> 00:02:13,367
your family's growing.
66
00:02:13,367 --> 00:02:15,066
-Yes, we are growing.
-Right.
67
00:02:15,100 --> 00:02:17,266
-We have our second baby due
in a couple of months.
-Yeah. Second baby on the way.
68
00:02:17,266 --> 00:02:20,266
You want to have the place
pretty comfy and...
and ready to go.
69
00:02:20,266 --> 00:02:21,667
-Exactly. That's the goal.
-Yeah. No pressure, you guys,
70
00:02:21,667 --> 00:02:25,500
-but we need this house done
before I'm done.
-[all laugh]
71
00:02:25,567 --> 00:02:27,400
Mind if we take a peek inside?
72
00:02:27,467 --> 00:02:29,200
-[Emillie] Through that door.
-[Drew] So, wait.
So, that's your front door?
73
00:02:29,266 --> 00:02:30,000
So, that's our
front door. Right.
74
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:30,800
So, that's our
front door. Right.
75
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:31,000
-Literally as far back
on your house as you go.
-[Bill and Emillie laugh]
76
00:02:34,567 --> 00:02:36,567
[Jonathan] Whoever built
this house wanted to mess
with people.
77
00:02:36,567 --> 00:02:38,200
Because whether
it's your guests,
78
00:02:38,266 --> 00:02:39,700
whether it's
the delivery person,
79
00:02:39,700 --> 00:02:42,567
nobody would be able
to figure out where to go
on the front door.
80
00:02:42,567 --> 00:02:44,767
[Bill] Welcome.
81
00:02:44,767 --> 00:02:47,000
[Emillie] Well, yeah, exactly.
Follow the welcome mats.
[chuckles]
82
00:02:47,066 --> 00:02:49,367
All right.
This is a big space.
83
00:02:49,367 --> 00:02:50,967
It's actually bigger
than I was expecting.
84
00:02:50,967 --> 00:02:53,667
We use this, obviously,
as our drop all.
85
00:02:53,667 --> 00:02:56,367
I mean, it's where
our stroller goes,
it's where everything goes.
86
00:02:56,367 --> 00:02:58,066
But otherwise,
it's completely useless.
87
00:02:58,066 --> 00:02:59,967
What is it you would
like to see here
that's not working for you?
88
00:03:01,166 --> 00:03:03,166
Just something
more functional.
89
00:03:03,166 --> 00:03:04,767
Like, where do you
put your coat...
90
00:03:04,767 --> 00:03:06,100
-[Bill laughs]
-[Emillie] ...where can you,
like, sit down?
91
00:03:06,166 --> 00:03:09,467
When you walk in,
you want it to be inviting
for your guests.
92
00:03:09,467 --> 00:03:11,967
The good thing is,
it's a huge area.
93
00:03:11,967 --> 00:03:13,367
-[Emillie] Okay.
-[Jonathan] And there's
so much potential.
94
00:03:13,367 --> 00:03:15,266
-"Potential." That's the word
of our house.
-Yeah. [chuckles]
95
00:03:15,266 --> 00:03:16,767
[Emillie] It's almost become
like a curse word.
96
00:03:16,767 --> 00:03:19,166
-Like, "there's
so much potential!"
-[laughs]
97
00:03:19,166 --> 00:03:21,400
We have been ready
for a renovation
98
00:03:21,467 --> 00:03:24,100
probably since the first month
that we lived here.
99
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:27,867
But, um, it's just become
kind of too big
of a project for us.
100
00:03:27,867 --> 00:03:30,000
Out of the range
of what we'd be able
101
00:03:30,066 --> 00:03:31,000
-to accomplish by ourselves.
-[Emillie] Yeah. Yeah.
102
00:03:31,967 --> 00:03:34,266
I love that you have
a whole wall of windows here,
103
00:03:34,266 --> 00:03:36,667
but I can see
that's single-pane.
104
00:03:36,667 --> 00:03:40,166
Oh, yeah. In the afternoons,
this area right here
is particularly sweltering.
105
00:03:40,166 --> 00:03:43,667
The biggest impact here
would be changing
out the windows.
106
00:03:43,667 --> 00:03:45,000
That will help a lot.
107
00:03:45,066 --> 00:03:46,367
-That sounds great, yes.
-That makes a lot of sense.
108
00:03:46,367 --> 00:03:47,767
[Drew] What about your desk,
your office?
109
00:03:47,767 --> 00:03:50,100
[Emillie] Yes, we do need
a spot for, like,
our computer
110
00:03:50,166 --> 00:03:52,600
and, like, a couple
of file cabinets of something.
111
00:03:52,667 --> 00:03:53,934
[Drew] Sounds good.
112
00:03:53,934 --> 00:03:56,767
We have our living room
over here,
slash Ben's playroom.
113
00:03:56,767 --> 00:03:58,967
[Bill] Yeah,
and a disguised fireplace.
114
00:03:58,967 --> 00:04:00,000
-[Emillie chuckling]
We've never used it.
-[Drew] Oh.
115
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:00,467
-[Emillie chuckling]
We've never used it.
-[Drew] Oh.
116
00:04:00,467 --> 00:04:01,000
Do you want to keep it,
or do you--
117
00:04:01,867 --> 00:04:03,567
[Emillie] Yeah, I think
it's a really nice feature.
118
00:04:03,567 --> 00:04:05,400
Yeah, we want to keep it.
Uh, but we need to...
119
00:04:05,467 --> 00:04:08,300
-we need to do something, uh,
with the aesthetics of it.
-Yeah.
120
00:04:08,367 --> 00:04:10,200
[Bill] I just... I don't know
about the white brick.
121
00:04:10,266 --> 00:04:13,066
[Emillie] And... and that
kind of awkward mantel.
122
00:04:13,066 --> 00:04:15,066
But I see what you're
saying here. It just feels
like you're trying
123
00:04:15,066 --> 00:04:16,500
to fix up something
that felt tired.
124
00:04:16,567 --> 00:04:18,200
-[Emillie] Right.
-We can do a cleaner finish.
125
00:04:18,266 --> 00:04:20,900
And this massive hearth
is eating up a lot of space
right now.
126
00:04:20,967 --> 00:04:22,367
So, we can definitely
make that smaller.
127
00:04:22,367 --> 00:04:24,000
-Perfect. That sounds good.
-It sounds great.
128
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,433
Yeah, just something
that says, like,
129
00:04:25,433 --> 00:04:28,266
-"Oh, look at me. I'm here,
but I'm just kind of a piece."
-Yeah.
130
00:04:28,266 --> 00:04:30,000
What I'm saying is,
everything is
a multi-functioning space.
131
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:30,700
What I'm saying is,
everything is
a multi-functioning space.
132
00:04:30,767 --> 00:04:31,000
-You have a sofa and chair
pushed all the way over here.
-[Emillie] Hmm.
133
00:04:34,066 --> 00:04:35,300
Another sofa pushed
all the way over
134
00:04:35,367 --> 00:04:36,867
-towards the kitchen.
-[Emillie] Mmm-hmm.
135
00:04:36,867 --> 00:04:38,367
All the way over there,
it looks like a work station
but you have a TV,
136
00:04:38,367 --> 00:04:40,400
-so there's no way
you can work at that desk.
-[Emillie] Right. Right.
137
00:04:40,467 --> 00:04:42,767
We need to separate
your areas and give
each one purpose.
138
00:04:42,767 --> 00:04:45,000
-Yeah, that sounds amazing.
-Yup, yup. Exactly.
139
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,266
-Exactly.
-To actually have function
in the house...
140
00:04:46,266 --> 00:04:48,266
-Yeah.
-I don't know
what I would do with that.
141
00:04:48,266 --> 00:04:52,000
But, um, our definite
biggest struggle
is probably the kitchen.
142
00:04:52,066 --> 00:04:53,800
-[Jonathan] Oh, no.
I just see it.
-[Drew] Well I kinda see it,
143
00:04:53,867 --> 00:04:55,667
you can tell
there are some issues.
144
00:04:55,667 --> 00:04:57,000
I'm seeing this countertop.
145
00:04:57,066 --> 00:04:58,467
[Emillie] Don't you love
that pink countertop?
146
00:04:58,467 --> 00:05:00,000
-[Drew] It's... It just
feels dated. I mean, if...
-[Emillie] Yeah.
147
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:00,467
-[Drew] It's... It just
feels dated. I mean, if...
-[Emillie] Yeah.
148
00:05:00,467 --> 00:05:01,000
Sometimes, if you go too bold
with a countertop,
149
00:05:02,567 --> 00:05:04,100
-it can go out of style
very fast.
-[Emillie] Right.
150
00:05:04,166 --> 00:05:07,700
-We have our little
dust-collecting, um, cabinets.
-[Drew] Yeah.
151
00:05:07,767 --> 00:05:09,033
[Drew] And the cabinets, too,
152
00:05:09,033 --> 00:05:10,400
-you've got doors
that are falling off.
-[Bill laughs]
153
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,100
-[Drew] What I'm noticing,
though, is...
-[Emillie] Mmm-hmm.
154
00:05:12,166 --> 00:05:13,967
...you have all
of this space here,
155
00:05:13,967 --> 00:05:15,567
yet the kitchen is
pretty much tucked
156
00:05:15,567 --> 00:05:17,367
-into that little U.
-[Emillie] Right.
157
00:05:17,367 --> 00:05:20,100
[Bill] Our two-year-old son
loves to help in the kitchen
and cook,
158
00:05:20,100 --> 00:05:23,567
and it's just too much
with him and the both of us
in this little space.
159
00:05:23,567 --> 00:05:25,266
[Jonathan] I think the...
the big thing will be...
160
00:05:25,266 --> 00:05:27,467
-'cause it is, again,
a strange layout...
-[Emillie] Mmm-hmm.
161
00:05:27,467 --> 00:05:29,200
And also from
an aesthetic standpoint,
162
00:05:29,266 --> 00:05:30,000
I'm assuming you're
not a big fan of the linoleum.
163
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,000
I'm assuming you're
not a big fan of the linoleum.
164
00:05:31,467 --> 00:05:32,900
[Emillie] Oh, please give me
a better floor.
165
00:05:32,967 --> 00:05:35,767
I think we actually had this
in our house
in the early '90s.
166
00:05:35,767 --> 00:05:36,900
[all laugh]
167
00:05:36,967 --> 00:05:38,266
-[Jonathan] There are some
bumps...
-[Emillie] Yes.
168
00:05:38,266 --> 00:05:39,634
[Jonathan] ...and humps
and everything.
169
00:05:39,667 --> 00:05:41,567
We need to make sure
that we don't have
extreme humps and dips.
170
00:05:41,567 --> 00:05:44,567
-Yeah.
-Because then, your hardwood
is not going to lay flat.
171
00:05:44,567 --> 00:05:48,100
So, we'll check out,
structurally make sure
everything's safe here,
172
00:05:48,100 --> 00:05:49,600
but I... I get...
173
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,066
-why the kitchen is probably
the biggest headache here.
-[Emillie] Yeah.
174
00:05:53,066 --> 00:05:57,266
And it's so separated.
So, if I'm in here
and our kid is out there,
175
00:05:57,266 --> 00:05:58,700
then I can't see him.
176
00:05:58,767 --> 00:06:00,000
One of the biggest things
would be
177
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:00,166
One of the biggest things
would be
178
00:06:00,166 --> 00:06:01,000
-if we can pull
this wall back a little bit...
-[Emillie] Yeah.
179
00:06:02,066 --> 00:06:04,300
[Jonathan] ...and relocate
the fridge and cabinets,
180
00:06:04,367 --> 00:06:06,667
it would really open up
the space to the living room.
181
00:06:06,667 --> 00:06:08,233
[Emillie] As much as you can.
182
00:06:08,233 --> 00:06:09,567
[Jonathan] Oh, yeah.
Well, the... the...
the nice thing is,
183
00:06:09,567 --> 00:06:11,967
then, we could get
a really big island in here
184
00:06:11,967 --> 00:06:14,166
-which would be great
breakfast bar seating.
-[Bill] Right.
185
00:06:14,166 --> 00:06:15,567
-[Jonathan] You need
an island.
-[Emillie] Yes.
186
00:06:15,567 --> 00:06:17,500
-Yes, an island. Now,
you're speaking my language.
-[chuckles]
187
00:06:17,567 --> 00:06:20,867
Lots of storage,
lots of countertop space,
open sightlines.
188
00:06:20,867 --> 00:06:23,700
We do want some kind
of dining table
189
00:06:23,767 --> 00:06:26,367
'cause I have dreams
of family dinners,
the four of us.
190
00:06:26,367 --> 00:06:30,000
-But it doesn't need to be
its own dining room thing.
-[Jonathan] Okay.
191
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:30,567
-But it doesn't need to be
its own dining room thing.
-[Jonathan] Okay.
192
00:06:30,567 --> 00:06:31,000
Actually, one thing
we're not even
talking about is,
193
00:06:32,867 --> 00:06:35,066
do we want a real front door?
194
00:06:35,066 --> 00:06:37,367
I would love to have
a real front door
195
00:06:37,367 --> 00:06:40,066
and welcome people in
to a... to a nice area.
196
00:06:40,066 --> 00:06:41,467
-That is the first impression.
-[Emillie] Forget people.
197
00:06:41,467 --> 00:06:44,367
-We could welcome ourselves in
straight into the house.
-[laughs]
198
00:06:44,367 --> 00:06:46,066
[Jonathan] And the place
that makes the most sense
199
00:06:46,066 --> 00:06:47,800
is off the present
dining room.
200
00:06:47,867 --> 00:06:50,266
That actually feels
like that's where
the front door should be.
201
00:06:50,266 --> 00:06:53,166
Then, you can enter
directly from the road
just outside
202
00:06:53,166 --> 00:06:54,867
right into the main space.
203
00:06:54,867 --> 00:06:57,266
You could have, like,
a nice little mudroom here.
204
00:06:57,266 --> 00:06:59,667
Yeah. Car, groceries
straight into the house.
205
00:06:59,667 --> 00:07:00,000
That would be incredible.
[chuckles]
206
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,000
That would be incredible.
[chuckles]
207
00:07:01,367 --> 00:07:03,400
[Drew] So, we're talking
about all the main spaces.
208
00:07:03,467 --> 00:07:05,567
Living room, dining room
and kitchen.
209
00:07:05,567 --> 00:07:08,500
I mean, there's a lot to do.
A lot of spaces.
What's your budget?
210
00:07:08,567 --> 00:07:11,567
Just cover Bill's mouth.
Uh, $200,000.
211
00:07:11,567 --> 00:07:12,700
-[Jonathan chuckles]
-[Emillie] Right, Bill?
212
00:07:12,767 --> 00:07:13,934
Yeah, that's fine.
213
00:07:13,934 --> 00:07:16,500
Were you pinching him
from behind?
"Right, honey?"
214
00:07:16,567 --> 00:07:19,600
I'm growing life,
so I get to pick
the budget. [chuckles]
215
00:07:19,667 --> 00:07:21,266
Good point.
That's a very good point.
216
00:07:21,266 --> 00:07:23,066
[Jonathan] That's
a substantial budget,
217
00:07:23,066 --> 00:07:26,166
and that'll allow us to tackle
so much on your wish list
before the baby arrives.
218
00:07:26,166 --> 00:07:27,867
-[Emillie] That sounds fair.
-[Bill] Sounds great, yup.
219
00:07:27,867 --> 00:07:29,700
Can you tell me
what your style is?
220
00:07:29,767 --> 00:07:30,000
And it's fine
if it's different
for both of you.
221
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,000
And it's fine
if it's different
for both of you.
222
00:07:31,266 --> 00:07:34,667
Uh, we definitely like,
you know, clean, simple,
not ornate.
223
00:07:34,667 --> 00:07:38,200
[Emillie] I like a little bit
of farmhouse,
a little bit of rustic
224
00:07:38,266 --> 00:07:40,400
but I like the white counters,
I like the white,
225
00:07:40,467 --> 00:07:42,967
and then I like to add
little pops of color.
226
00:07:42,967 --> 00:07:44,767
Bill says that feels
too sterile.
227
00:07:44,767 --> 00:07:46,100
You just feel
like you're at work?
228
00:07:46,100 --> 00:07:47,467
[laughs]
229
00:07:47,467 --> 00:07:49,266
I'll show you something
that can maybe pull
that idea together
230
00:07:49,266 --> 00:07:50,767
-without it being boring.
-Right.
231
00:07:50,767 --> 00:07:52,400
I can do up
a couple of options,
232
00:07:52,467 --> 00:07:53,967
show you what it would cost
to do the different things,
233
00:07:53,967 --> 00:07:55,767
and you can pick the things
that make the most sense.
234
00:07:55,767 --> 00:07:57,767
-Thank you.
-[Bill and Emillie chuckle]
235
00:07:57,767 --> 00:08:00,000
I'm noticing right now
as we're sort of wrapping up
our initial conversation,
236
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,000
I'm noticing right now
as we're sort of wrapping up
our initial conversation,
237
00:08:01,367 --> 00:08:03,467
it feels natural
to want to leave this way.
238
00:08:03,467 --> 00:08:06,100
-Obviously,
there's no door there.
-[all laugh]
239
00:08:06,166 --> 00:08:09,100
-Yeah. Sorry, guys, you have
to go back around the house.
-Right. Yeah, go back around.
240
00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:12,467
We're definitely nervous
that the timing
of having this baby
241
00:08:12,467 --> 00:08:14,100
right with the renovation,
242
00:08:14,166 --> 00:08:16,967
but I guess we're...
We feel so safe
with Jonathan and Drew
243
00:08:16,967 --> 00:08:18,967
that I think it's going
to be okay.
244
00:08:18,967 --> 00:08:20,967
Hopefully, we can get this in
under the wire.
245
00:08:20,967 --> 00:08:23,667
[upbeat music playing]
246
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,000
[Jonathan] This is it.
247
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:30,300
[Jonathan] This is it.
248
00:08:30,300 --> 00:08:31,000
-Last chance to say,
"Mmm, maybe we'll wait."
-[Bill laughs]
249
00:08:33,266 --> 00:08:34,600
[Emillie] No, get me a hammer.
250
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:35,967
-[Bill] No, for real,
like, I like this.
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
251
00:08:35,967 --> 00:08:38,567
Instead of pickles
and ice cream,
your craving is destruction.
252
00:08:38,567 --> 00:08:42,166
It's destruction.
Bring me a wall,
whatever you've got.
253
00:08:42,166 --> 00:08:46,467
It's actually been a minute
since we've done demolition
with somebody who's pregnant.
254
00:08:46,467 --> 00:08:47,467
[Jonathan] All right, we got
this, guys.
255
00:08:47,467 --> 00:08:49,100
-[Emillie] Let's do it.
-We got this.
256
00:08:49,166 --> 00:08:51,967
There's a ton
of demolition stuff we can do
that's totally safe for her.
257
00:08:51,967 --> 00:08:54,166
We're not going to over-exert.
But at the end of the day,
258
00:08:54,166 --> 00:08:55,667
I know she wants
to be a part of it.
259
00:08:55,700 --> 00:09:00,000
This is going to be
the most transformational part
of the demolition
260
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,000
This is going to be
the most transformational part
of the demolition
261
00:09:01,567 --> 00:09:04,000
because this kitchen
is just not doing it.
262
00:09:04,066 --> 00:09:05,567
No, this is it.
We got to get rid of this.
263
00:09:05,567 --> 00:09:08,266
-Well, you--
-The woman knows
what she wants.
264
00:09:08,266 --> 00:09:11,000
You know, we were talking
about it when we were
packing up this house,
265
00:09:11,066 --> 00:09:13,000
and we were talking
about our memories here,
266
00:09:13,066 --> 00:09:14,900
-and I think it did bring up
quite a bit of sentiment.
-Yeah.
267
00:09:14,967 --> 00:09:18,166
I mean, right here
is where Ben took
his first steps.
268
00:09:18,166 --> 00:09:19,934
What sort of runs
through your mind
269
00:09:19,967 --> 00:09:24,867
when you think about the fact
that you're about to bring
another baby into the fold?
270
00:09:24,867 --> 00:09:26,567
Well, I think that it's going
to be amazing
271
00:09:26,567 --> 00:09:29,567
to bring our baby home
and start, like, new memories
272
00:09:29,567 --> 00:09:30,000
-from the get-go.
-[Bill] That's exactly right.
273
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,000
-from the get-go.
-[Bill] That's exactly right.
274
00:09:31,467 --> 00:09:33,667
Well, let's get this out.
275
00:09:33,667 --> 00:09:35,066
Oh, my God, yeah.
276
00:09:35,066 --> 00:09:36,400
Can we have just Bill, like,
run through the wall
or something?
277
00:09:36,467 --> 00:09:37,567
-You want to do the first hit?
-Yeah, sure.
278
00:09:37,567 --> 00:09:38,800
-[Emillie] Yeah, baby. Get it.
-[Jonathan] Here.
279
00:09:38,867 --> 00:09:40,900
-[Bill] Go, timber.
-Whoo!
280
00:09:40,967 --> 00:09:42,433
[Bill] Whoa.
281
00:09:42,433 --> 00:09:43,867
Really excited,
but I'm nervous.
We've been working so hard
282
00:09:43,867 --> 00:09:45,667
to get the house
all packed up.
283
00:09:45,667 --> 00:09:48,200
My God, you cracked the wall.
Yeah, babe. Whoo!
284
00:09:48,266 --> 00:09:49,567
[Bill] Now, we're
onto that next phase
and, uh...
285
00:09:49,567 --> 00:09:51,100
I mean, once we
take down some walls,
286
00:09:51,100 --> 00:09:52,467
there's no turning back.
[chuckles]
287
00:09:52,467 --> 00:09:53,967
No. Now,
it's full steam ahead.
288
00:09:55,100 --> 00:09:56,100
[exclaims]
289
00:09:57,967 --> 00:09:59,867
[Jonathan] Uh,
did you just see the sexy...
290
00:09:59,867 --> 00:10:00,000
-one-armed door rip?
-[Emillie] Huzzah!
291
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,000
-one-armed door rip?
-[Emillie] Huzzah!
292
00:10:01,066 --> 00:10:03,367
Whoo, yeah!
293
00:10:03,367 --> 00:10:05,066
[Jonathan] And I...
I asked Emillie several times.
294
00:10:05,066 --> 00:10:07,300
I'm like, "Are you sure?
You don't have to do this.
This is totally fine."
295
00:10:07,367 --> 00:10:08,700
And she's like,
"Get me the hammer.
296
00:10:08,767 --> 00:10:10,300
-I want to break stuff."
-[Emillie] Huzzah!
297
00:10:10,367 --> 00:10:11,667
Watch out.
298
00:10:11,667 --> 00:10:12,700
I don't even know
why I'm here.
299
00:10:12,767 --> 00:10:14,000
[chuckles] What else
do we got?
300
00:10:14,066 --> 00:10:15,400
Okay, ma'am.
301
00:10:15,467 --> 00:10:17,400
-Oh, yeah. There we go.
-[Bill] Oh, here we go.
302
00:10:17,467 --> 00:10:19,100
-That's our spot.
-There it is, love.
303
00:10:19,100 --> 00:10:20,467
[Emillie] All right,
we're prying.
304
00:10:20,467 --> 00:10:23,667
-One, two, three.
-[Bill] Three.
305
00:10:23,667 --> 00:10:25,867
-[Emillie] Oh, my God.
-[Jonathan] Keep going,
keep going.
306
00:10:27,166 --> 00:10:28,266
[Bill] You looked great
with that demo hammer.
307
00:10:28,266 --> 00:10:29,667
-You were doing a great job.
-Thanks.
308
00:10:29,667 --> 00:10:30,000
-[Jonathan] Boom.
-[Emillie exclaims]
309
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,000
-[Jonathan] Boom.
-[Emillie exclaims]
310
00:10:32,100 --> 00:10:34,300
-Oh, my God.
-Amazing.
311
00:10:34,367 --> 00:10:36,300
I mean, I probably would
have taken down
our whole house
312
00:10:36,367 --> 00:10:37,767
if you had given me the time.
313
00:10:37,767 --> 00:10:39,138
[both laugh]
314
00:10:39,138 --> 00:10:39,367
[both laugh]
315
00:10:40,867 --> 00:10:42,767
[Jonathan] We're continuing
to demo Emillie
and Bill's main space
316
00:10:42,767 --> 00:10:45,467
right down to the studs
to make way for big changes
317
00:10:45,467 --> 00:10:48,100
and breaking up
the fireplace hearth
in the living room
318
00:10:48,166 --> 00:10:50,667
that was eating up
way too much space.
319
00:10:50,667 --> 00:10:53,600
But I'm most excited
to turn the old window
at the front of the house
320
00:10:53,667 --> 00:10:55,867
into something this house
desperately needs.
321
00:10:55,867 --> 00:10:57,367
How many front doors
do you have?
322
00:10:57,367 --> 00:10:58,400
Definitely one.
323
00:10:58,467 --> 00:11:00,100
-[Jonathan] Just one?
-Just one.
324
00:11:00,100 --> 00:11:02,500
Okay. This one,
it's like a mystery. But it's
like those '70s game shows.
325
00:11:02,567 --> 00:11:05,567
-"What's behind
door number four?"
-[chuckles]
326
00:11:05,567 --> 00:11:07,166
-That's right.
-"Oh, you're still
not in the house."
327
00:11:07,166 --> 00:11:09,138
They already have
the header in place,
so the structure's there.
328
00:11:09,138 --> 00:11:10,000
They already have
the header in place,
so the structure's there.
329
00:11:10,066 --> 00:11:11,700
No matter which option
they choose,
330
00:11:11,767 --> 00:11:13,667
-they're getting
a new front door.
-Absolutely.
331
00:11:13,667 --> 00:11:16,100
[rock music playing]
332
00:11:17,867 --> 00:11:20,100
[sawing]
333
00:11:26,066 --> 00:11:27,667
[grunts] Whoa.
334
00:11:27,667 --> 00:11:29,400
-[Ryan] Yeah, buddy.
-[Jonathan exhales] Oh.
335
00:11:29,467 --> 00:11:31,100
"This is where your
package goes.
336
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:33,066
-Here's the delivery, sir."
-[laughs] Yeah.
337
00:11:33,066 --> 00:11:35,600
[rock and roll music playing]
338
00:11:39,166 --> 00:11:40,000
Nothing like the ocean
in the morning to inspire you.
339
00:11:41,667 --> 00:11:42,767
-Oh, my God.
It's beautiful.
-This is gorgeous.
340
00:11:42,767 --> 00:11:44,767
[Drew] Bill and Emillie
have a farm home.
341
00:11:44,767 --> 00:11:46,300
They say they like
a farm style
342
00:11:46,367 --> 00:11:48,500
but they don't exactly know
what that means.
343
00:11:48,567 --> 00:11:50,700
I'm really hoping
this restaurant
will show them a few things
344
00:11:50,767 --> 00:11:53,867
to pull them outside
of too safe a design.
345
00:11:53,867 --> 00:11:54,800
I don't want this
to be boring.
346
00:11:54,867 --> 00:11:57,000
-[Emillie] Oh, wow.
-[Bill] Wow.
347
00:11:57,900 --> 00:11:59,233
It's a great space.
348
00:11:59,233 --> 00:12:00,867
-Oh, my God. Just so gorgeous.
-[Emillie] Oh,
this is so cool.
349
00:12:00,867 --> 00:12:03,400
[Drew] And I feel that there's
a lot of the vibe
that you have here
350
00:12:03,467 --> 00:12:05,967
that actually would work
with that California farm vibe
that you want in your home.
351
00:12:05,967 --> 00:12:07,567
-Yeah, I like that, actually.
-Yeah. Yep.
352
00:12:07,567 --> 00:12:08,900
-[Emillie] That's really nice.
-[Bill] The exposed wood.
353
00:12:08,967 --> 00:12:09,138
[Drew] Yeah, all the natural
wood tones throughout.
354
00:12:09,138 --> 00:12:10,000
[Drew] Yeah, all the natural
wood tones throughout.
355
00:12:11,166 --> 00:12:15,200
The problem is that I know
that I want, like,
white and clean,
356
00:12:15,266 --> 00:12:18,567
and Bill feels like that is
sterile and boring.
357
00:12:18,567 --> 00:12:21,467
Yeah. I don't want
anything too super-sterile.
358
00:12:21,467 --> 00:12:25,066
The patterned tile
is beautiful, you know,
in, like, a small area.
359
00:12:25,066 --> 00:12:27,166
I want flow of hardwood
all the way through.
Right, Bill?
360
00:12:27,166 --> 00:12:28,600
-[Bill] Oh, definitely, yeah.
I'm just, uh...
-Yeah.
361
00:12:28,667 --> 00:12:30,066
A pattern somewhere
might be really nice.
362
00:12:30,066 --> 00:12:32,767
-Mmm-hmm. Okay.
-Yeah, like, just, say
for a pop of excitement.
363
00:12:32,767 --> 00:12:33,900
-Pop of oomph.
-A little pop.
364
00:12:33,967 --> 00:12:35,266
You know, a little
something-something.
365
00:12:35,266 --> 00:12:38,266
[Drew] We can definitely add
areas of texture and interest.
366
00:12:38,266 --> 00:12:39,138
Now, for lighting,
367
00:12:39,138 --> 00:12:39,800
Now, for lighting,
368
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:40,000
-we don't have this kind
of ceiling height.
-[Emillie] Right.
369
00:12:41,500 --> 00:12:43,467
[Drew] So, we can figure out
something that...
that is lower-profile
370
00:12:43,467 --> 00:12:45,300
doesn't feel like it's
closing things in.
371
00:12:45,367 --> 00:12:46,567
-That's great. Yeah.
-That makes sense.
372
00:12:46,567 --> 00:12:48,033
[Drew] Wood tones, though.
You like a lot of wood tones?
373
00:12:48,033 --> 00:12:50,467
[Emillie] I love
the wood tones, and I like
these lighter wood tones.
374
00:12:50,467 --> 00:12:53,166
This table, you can see
there's a lot of variation
in the colors.
375
00:12:53,166 --> 00:12:56,667
So, we don't have to have
all the wood tones the same.
376
00:12:56,667 --> 00:12:59,867
With the restaurant,
I was shocked
how many features it had
377
00:12:59,867 --> 00:13:02,266
and how cohesive
they all went together.
378
00:13:02,266 --> 00:13:05,066
-The wood, the metals.
-[Bill] That exciting tile.
379
00:13:05,066 --> 00:13:06,367
[Emillie] Yeah,
they were all different.
380
00:13:06,367 --> 00:13:08,300
But it worked.
It had a good feel.
381
00:13:08,367 --> 00:13:09,138
[Drew] So,
for your countertops,
382
00:13:09,138 --> 00:13:10,000
[Drew] So,
for your countertops,
383
00:13:10,166 --> 00:13:12,000
you can see
this is an off-white.
384
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,800
It definitely has
a warm tone underneath.
385
00:13:13,867 --> 00:13:15,467
Is that something
you're interested in?
386
00:13:15,467 --> 00:13:18,000
Yeah, I... I might want
something a little bit
darker than this, but...
387
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,266
Okay, is veining something
that makes a countertop,
like, more special?
388
00:13:22,266 --> 00:13:25,467
Yeah, instead of just
a solid white or...
or cream like this,
389
00:13:25,467 --> 00:13:27,600
we could get something
that's a manmade product.
390
00:13:27,667 --> 00:13:30,767
That has that veining,
it looks like marble,
but it's zero-maintenance.
391
00:13:30,767 --> 00:13:32,467
I like that zero-maintenance,
please.
392
00:13:32,467 --> 00:13:35,066
-That's the name of our game.
-We... We can do that.
393
00:13:35,066 --> 00:13:36,500
[Drew] Do you want white
for the cabinets or--
394
00:13:36,567 --> 00:13:39,000
[Emilie] Ugh. See,
I would say yes,
but Bill wouldn't.
395
00:13:39,066 --> 00:13:39,138
That just feels
almost too sterile.
396
00:13:39,138 --> 00:13:40,000
That just feels
almost too sterile.
397
00:13:40,667 --> 00:13:43,066
[Drew] So, maybe we can
go with shades of grey
in the cabinets?
398
00:13:43,066 --> 00:13:46,000
I agree with you.
We can't go white
all the way across everything,
399
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,867
but something not to, like,
close off our space.
400
00:13:49,867 --> 00:13:51,867
We can bring color
into the living room
401
00:13:51,867 --> 00:13:53,567
and in the dining area
in some accents.
402
00:13:53,567 --> 00:13:55,367
-Accent color.
-That sounds...
That sounds like us,
403
00:13:55,367 --> 00:13:59,867
kind of like on that border
of, like, really simple
and modern but cool.
404
00:13:59,867 --> 00:14:01,367
[Drew] As I show
Emilie more options,
405
00:14:01,367 --> 00:14:03,500
she's starting to like
more of an eclectic feel.
406
00:14:03,567 --> 00:14:06,467
This is good. It means
she will not have
a boring design.
407
00:14:06,467 --> 00:14:07,667
What do you want
for your seating?
408
00:14:07,700 --> 00:14:09,138
Because you're gonna have
a great size dining space.
409
00:14:09,138 --> 00:14:10,000
Because you're gonna have
a great size dining space.
410
00:14:10,100 --> 00:14:11,367
-[Emilie] I like
the idea of a bench...
-[Bill] Yeah.
411
00:14:11,367 --> 00:14:12,467
[Emilie] ...'cause you can,
like, shove a bunch
412
00:14:12,467 --> 00:14:14,000
-of people on it. [chuckles]
-[Bill] Oh, yeah.
413
00:14:14,066 --> 00:14:17,066
A bench sounds wonderful,
just maybe a little
more padded.
414
00:14:17,066 --> 00:14:18,900
-Yeah, we can do
something fabric, yeah.
-Yeah.
415
00:14:18,967 --> 00:14:20,300
Yeah, that works.
416
00:14:20,300 --> 00:14:21,266
-Come on back here,
grab seat.
-[Bill] Oh, sure.
417
00:14:21,266 --> 00:14:22,567
[Drew] Slide
into the bench here.
418
00:14:22,567 --> 00:14:24,900
I wanna talk to Jonathan
about how we can
incorporate a bench,
419
00:14:24,967 --> 00:14:26,600
whether we would do
something built-in
420
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,100
or whether we would just do
something free-standing
for your table and bench.
421
00:14:29,100 --> 00:14:32,767
Is there any way, like,
with the bench, we could get
some storage under it?
422
00:14:32,767 --> 00:14:35,367
We wanna get you
as much storage
as possible in the house.
423
00:14:35,367 --> 00:14:36,367
[Emilie] Yes, please.
424
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,600
Oh, looking over here
at this patterned wood,
425
00:14:38,667 --> 00:14:39,138
um, I do really like this,
in terms of having
a little bit
426
00:14:39,138 --> 00:14:40,000
um, I do really like this,
in terms of having
a little bit
427
00:14:41,367 --> 00:14:43,367
of texture on the walls,
maybe not the whole house
428
00:14:43,367 --> 00:14:45,100
-but at least in, like,
an area.
-Yeah. I think
429
00:14:45,100 --> 00:14:46,667
it adds a little bit
of interest.
430
00:14:46,667 --> 00:14:50,100
And this is why I'm glad
you're here
in person to see it
431
00:14:50,100 --> 00:14:52,900
because I feel that you were
wanting to go way too safe.
432
00:14:52,967 --> 00:14:54,867
But now seeing it, like,
all cohesive,
433
00:14:54,867 --> 00:14:56,567
it really...
It looks good.
434
00:14:56,567 --> 00:15:00,100
[Bill] In terms of, uh,
how are design styles
kind of interact, uh,
435
00:15:00,166 --> 00:15:01,967
I really think
we found a compromise.
436
00:15:01,967 --> 00:15:03,166
I think we're on
the same page.
437
00:15:03,166 --> 00:15:04,767
-I'm totally inspired.
-[Bill] Yeah.
438
00:15:06,100 --> 00:15:08,467
-[Drew] It's so
gorgeous out here.
-[Bill] Oh, my gosh.
439
00:15:08,467 --> 00:15:09,138
-[Emilie] Well,
this is beautiful.
-[Bill] Absolutely beautiful.
440
00:15:09,138 --> 00:15:09,900
-[Emilie] Well,
this is beautiful.
-[Bill] Absolutely beautiful.
441
00:15:09,967 --> 00:15:10,000
-[Emilie] Can you get us
some waves in our house?
-[Bill laughs]
442
00:15:11,467 --> 00:15:12,767
-[Emilie laughs]
-[Drew] You already have
the mountains.
443
00:15:12,767 --> 00:15:14,667
-We'll move the ocean to you.
-[Bill] Yeah. [laughs]
444
00:15:14,667 --> 00:15:17,467
You probably don't even
realize how much
this is exactly in line
445
00:15:17,467 --> 00:15:18,467
-with your style.
-Yeah.
446
00:15:18,467 --> 00:15:19,800
-That was a huge
take home message.
-Yeah.
447
00:15:19,867 --> 00:15:21,800
I'm gonna start looking
for inspiration everywhere.
448
00:15:21,867 --> 00:15:24,767
You narrowed it down nicely,
and I put "not boring"
on my list eight times.
449
00:15:24,767 --> 00:15:26,533
-[laughs]
-Perfect,
then we're good to go.
450
00:15:26,533 --> 00:15:29,867
We're, uh... We're definitely
getting a little bit more
nervous about this pregnancy
451
00:15:29,867 --> 00:15:32,166
as we're getting
closer to the end here
452
00:15:32,166 --> 00:15:33,767
and we're keeping
our fingers crossed
453
00:15:33,767 --> 00:15:35,600
baby doesn't do
anything silly. [chuckles]
454
00:15:39,467 --> 00:15:40,000
[Drew] Since you were
last here, we finished
demoing your house.
455
00:15:42,367 --> 00:15:44,300
Get ready for a bit
of a shock.
456
00:15:44,367 --> 00:15:45,767
-[Jonathan] Ready?
After you.
-[Emilie] Oh, my God.
457
00:15:45,767 --> 00:15:47,266
[Bill] Oh, ho!
458
00:15:47,266 --> 00:15:49,100
-Bill, there's a front door.
-Incredible. Yeah. [chuckles]
459
00:15:52,066 --> 00:15:53,166
-[Emilie] Oh,
my God. [chuckles]
-[Drew] After you.
460
00:15:53,166 --> 00:15:54,600
-Oh.
-That's our new front door?
461
00:15:54,667 --> 00:15:56,266
[Bill] Oh, my gosh.
462
00:15:56,266 --> 00:15:58,000
Oh, my gosh,
look at this. [chuckles]
463
00:15:58,066 --> 00:16:00,166
The new front door
was pretty wild, wasn't it?
464
00:16:00,166 --> 00:16:02,100
It was very weird
to be led into our home
465
00:16:02,166 --> 00:16:04,567
in a totally different
way. [chuckles]
466
00:16:04,567 --> 00:16:07,467
-Oh, my goodness,
this is crazy!
-[Bill] Oh, my gosh.
467
00:16:07,467 --> 00:16:09,367
[Jonathan] This shows you
the bigger footprint
468
00:16:09,367 --> 00:16:11,767
-and what the potential is
for this entire space.
-Oh, my gosh.
469
00:16:11,767 --> 00:16:15,000
-Wow, this room
is actually really big,
-Feels huge, doesn't it?
470
00:16:15,066 --> 00:16:16,767
-Well, that's what happens
when you take a wall down.
-Oh, my gosh.
471
00:16:16,767 --> 00:16:18,000
-Right. [laughs]
-[laughs]
472
00:16:18,066 --> 00:16:20,324
And now we have to figure out
what we wanna do to rebuild.
473
00:16:20,324 --> 00:16:20,567
And now we have to figure out
what we wanna do to rebuild.
474
00:16:20,567 --> 00:16:21,000
-Perfect. Sounds good.
-Sounds good.
Yeah, let's rebuild.
475
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,867
Okay, option one.
476
00:16:24,867 --> 00:16:27,667
We give you a front door!
Front door.
477
00:16:27,667 --> 00:16:29,100
[cheering]
478
00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:30,900
Your postman
actually asked us
to do that as well.
479
00:16:30,967 --> 00:16:32,500
Let's try to not
mention the postman
480
00:16:32,567 --> 00:16:33,767
-right now with the...
-[laughs]
481
00:16:33,767 --> 00:16:35,800
[chuckles]
Too soon, too soon.
482
00:16:35,867 --> 00:16:36,900
[chuckling] I'm kidding,
I'm kidding.
483
00:16:36,967 --> 00:16:40,500
Option one,
coming in your new front door,
484
00:16:40,567 --> 00:16:42,667
we would redo
the whole area here.
485
00:16:42,667 --> 00:16:46,266
Expand your kitchen, give you
state-of-the-art appliances,
486
00:16:46,266 --> 00:16:48,767
gorgeous counters,
you'd have an island.
487
00:16:48,767 --> 00:16:50,324
-[Emilie] What?
-[Jonathan] You'd have
extra seating.
488
00:16:50,324 --> 00:16:51,000
-[Emilie] What?
-[Jonathan] You'd have
extra seating.
489
00:16:51,266 --> 00:16:54,166
You'd get a built-in
dedicated desk area,
490
00:16:54,166 --> 00:16:56,667
flooring that continues
all the way through.
491
00:16:56,667 --> 00:16:58,367
-[Bill] Ooh.
-[Jonathan]
In the living room,
492
00:16:58,367 --> 00:17:01,700
you'd get new energy
efficient windows
all across the back here.
493
00:17:01,767 --> 00:17:03,300
[Emilie] That's amazing.
494
00:17:03,300 --> 00:17:05,667
[Jonathan] And you'd have
this beautiful
lounging area in here.
495
00:17:05,667 --> 00:17:07,800
-We'd reduce
the size of your hearth...
-[Emilie] Mmm-hmm.
496
00:17:07,867 --> 00:17:10,800
[Jonathan] ...and finish it,
so that you just have
this great living area
497
00:17:10,867 --> 00:17:12,700
and a built-in banquette.
498
00:17:12,767 --> 00:17:14,567
-[Bill] Wow.
That sounds amazing.
-[Emilie] Banquette.
499
00:17:14,567 --> 00:17:17,266
Oh, that sounds so beautiful.
500
00:17:17,266 --> 00:17:20,324
Okay, option one
comes in at $192,000,
501
00:17:20,324 --> 00:17:21,000
Okay, option one
comes in at $192,000,
502
00:17:21,767 --> 00:17:23,467
would take eight weeks
to complete.
503
00:17:23,467 --> 00:17:25,066
-Oh, my God. Incredible.
-Love it. That... [chuckles.]
504
00:17:25,066 --> 00:17:26,567
-Check, check, check. Okay.
-Yeah. [chuckles]
505
00:17:26,567 --> 00:17:30,066
Option two,
exact same living room,
506
00:17:30,066 --> 00:17:33,100
TV, fireplace,
built-in banquette.
507
00:17:33,100 --> 00:17:36,300
The only difference
is instead of expanding
508
00:17:36,367 --> 00:17:38,867
-the kitchen across
into the front room...
-[Emilie] Mmm-hmm.
509
00:17:38,867 --> 00:17:41,166
[Jonathan] ...we would
actually build you
a mudroom in that area.
510
00:17:41,166 --> 00:17:42,900
-[Bill] Hmm.
-[Emilie] Oh.
511
00:17:42,900 --> 00:17:44,900
-[Jonathan] So, you'd have
storage for jackets, shoes...
-[Emilie] Unload.
512
00:17:44,967 --> 00:17:47,000
[Jonathan]
...somewhere to sit down,
somewhere to unload.
513
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,467
-Ooh, a mudroom.
-A mudroom would
be really nice.
514
00:17:49,467 --> 00:17:50,324
-A little storage area.
-We'd have, like, a spot
to dump everything.
515
00:17:50,324 --> 00:17:51,000
-A little storage area.
-We'd have, like, a spot
to dump everything.
516
00:17:52,166 --> 00:17:54,066
Just, you know, welcoming
people to the home.
517
00:17:54,066 --> 00:17:56,266
I think it's just gonna be
absolutely wonderful.
518
00:17:56,266 --> 00:17:59,567
Option two comes
in at $190,000
519
00:17:59,567 --> 00:18:01,800
-and exact same timeline
of eight weeks.
-[Emilie] Mmm-hmm.
520
00:18:01,867 --> 00:18:03,467
I... I think both
sound really great.
521
00:18:03,467 --> 00:18:05,166
-I mean, the mudroom
would be really useful.
-Right.
522
00:18:05,166 --> 00:18:07,967
Keep your coats
and you shoes
all by the entrance area.
523
00:18:07,967 --> 00:18:10,266
-That would be really nice.
-But no expanded kitchen?
524
00:18:10,266 --> 00:18:12,867
-I mean, we just spend
so much time in the kitchen.
-Right.
525
00:18:12,867 --> 00:18:14,767
-And it's only gonna get
more time, right?
-Mmm-hmm.
526
00:18:14,767 --> 00:18:17,467
-Keep in mind,
in a rural area like this...
-[Emilie] Uh-huh.
527
00:18:17,467 --> 00:18:19,266
...a lot of muddy
spots out back
528
00:18:19,266 --> 00:18:20,324
-potentially to traipse
into the house...
-Mmm-hmm.
529
00:18:20,324 --> 00:18:21,000
-potentially to traipse
into the house...
-Mmm-hmm.
530
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:22,567
-[Jonathan] ...so--
-[Bill and Emilie] Right.
531
00:18:22,567 --> 00:18:25,467
No, I mean, just think
about two kids just throwing
off clothes and boots
532
00:18:25,467 --> 00:18:28,467
at the entrance
and having a nice place
to put everything.
533
00:18:28,467 --> 00:18:30,300
I think it'd be really nice
from that stand point.
534
00:18:30,367 --> 00:18:32,166
-Bill my big
kitchen. [laughs]
-Um-- [laughs]
535
00:18:32,166 --> 00:18:33,700
I think... I think
a big kitchen
536
00:18:33,767 --> 00:18:36,200
-is, uh...
is the main priority.
-Oh, you're so right, babe.
537
00:18:36,266 --> 00:18:38,900
-[Drew] Oh, I love it--
-This is your idea.
538
00:18:38,967 --> 00:18:41,800
-I love how you guys
worked through, uh, issues.
-[Emilie] You tell them.
539
00:18:41,867 --> 00:18:46,867
All right, so we want
you to tell us, option one
or option two?
540
00:18:46,867 --> 00:18:49,300
Are we... Are we good?
I'm good. I know what I want.
541
00:18:49,367 --> 00:18:50,324
Oh, yeah, we're good.
542
00:18:50,324 --> 00:18:50,734
Oh, yeah, we're good.
543
00:18:50,767 --> 00:18:51,000
Two squeezes for one.
One squeeze for two.
Wait. [indistinct]
544
00:18:52,667 --> 00:18:55,066
-We don't need any squeezes.
We're good. Option one.
-Option one.
545
00:18:55,066 --> 00:18:56,867
-All right.
-Okay, great.
546
00:18:56,867 --> 00:18:59,567
-[exclaims]
-I cannot wait
for you to see this kitchen,
547
00:18:59,567 --> 00:19:01,000
-to see this whole space.
-[Bill] Oh, my gosh.
548
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:02,266
-I'm so excited.
-Yeah.
549
00:19:02,266 --> 00:19:03,367
-Mmm-hmm.
-This is gonna be
the kitchen of our dreams.
550
00:19:03,367 --> 00:19:04,667
-Hmm. It's a good trade.
-I can feel it already.
551
00:19:04,667 --> 00:19:07,200
-Oh, yeah.
-Well, now that we have
this beautiful
552
00:19:07,266 --> 00:19:09,667
new front entry,
go ahead and use it.
553
00:19:09,667 --> 00:19:11,200
-And don't come back
until we call you...
-Yes.
554
00:19:11,266 --> 00:19:12,233
-...when it's all done.
-[Emilie] Okay.
555
00:19:12,233 --> 00:19:13,467
-[Jonathan] All right?
-Nearly out of time.
556
00:19:13,467 --> 00:19:14,667
[all laugh]
557
00:19:14,667 --> 00:19:16,667
Quick question, how...
how many weeks are you at?
558
00:19:16,667 --> 00:19:18,000
31 weeks.
559
00:19:18,066 --> 00:19:20,000
-[Drew] So you have?
-Nine weeks to go.
560
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:20,324
-We have a one-week buffer.
-A one-week buffer.
561
00:19:20,324 --> 00:19:21,000
-We have a one-week buffer.
-A one-week buffer.
562
00:19:21,667 --> 00:19:23,300
-No pressure. [laughs]
-All right.
563
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,100
[Jonathan] We need open
things up between the kitchen
and living room
564
00:19:33,166 --> 00:19:36,066
and that means we require
three massive beams
565
00:19:36,066 --> 00:19:37,967
to support the heavy
weight of the roof,
566
00:19:37,967 --> 00:19:41,467
and those beams need to rest
on a really solid foundation.
567
00:19:41,467 --> 00:19:43,967
Before my engineer
can even provide us
with a plan,
568
00:19:43,967 --> 00:19:46,300
he needs to know
what kind of a foundation
he's dealing with
569
00:19:46,367 --> 00:19:49,867
so we're digging through
all the concrete
hoping for rebar.
570
00:19:49,867 --> 00:19:50,324
[Drew] Whoo-hoo.
571
00:19:50,324 --> 00:19:50,700
[Drew] Whoo-hoo.
572
00:19:52,667 --> 00:19:54,367
-Yeah?
-Any rebar yet?
573
00:19:54,367 --> 00:19:56,000
Well, we'll know
in, like, two seconds.
574
00:19:56,567 --> 00:19:57,367
[Drew groans]
575
00:20:00,166 --> 00:20:01,767
-No rebar at all.
-[man] Nothing.
576
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,333
[Drew] That's too bad.
577
00:20:03,367 --> 00:20:05,200
[Jonathan] Unfortunately,
bare minimum,
578
00:20:05,266 --> 00:20:07,100
we're gonna need
to add rebar,
579
00:20:07,166 --> 00:20:09,266
pour concrete footings
to beef up the structure.
580
00:20:09,266 --> 00:20:12,967
And there's another issue,
there's no movement at all
in this slab over here.
581
00:20:12,967 --> 00:20:15,000
It's perfectly level,
not even a crack.
582
00:20:15,567 --> 00:20:17,166
Over there, you can see,
583
00:20:17,166 --> 00:20:18,867
-it's a little bit off, so...
-[Drew] Yeah, I see it.
584
00:20:18,867 --> 00:20:20,324
[Jonathan] ...we'll have
to wait until the engineer
gives us his report
585
00:20:20,324 --> 00:20:21,000
[Jonathan] ...we'll have
to wait until the engineer
gives us his report
586
00:20:21,066 --> 00:20:22,867
just to know what kind
of shape we're in.
587
00:20:22,867 --> 00:20:25,200
Well, we definitely have
to get rid of the hump.
I mean, this is no good.
588
00:20:25,266 --> 00:20:27,867
We wanna make sure
that everything
is perfectly level.
589
00:20:27,867 --> 00:20:30,266
I hate to do all this work,
lay all this new flooring,
590
00:20:30,266 --> 00:20:32,467
and then, in two years,
boom, you also can see
591
00:20:32,467 --> 00:20:33,967
-hardwood popping up.
-Yeah.
592
00:20:33,967 --> 00:20:37,000
-That's the last thing we want
to happen for these guys.
-Yeah.
593
00:20:37,066 --> 00:20:40,266
Emilie and Bill
are expecting their baby
in less than eight weeks.
594
00:20:40,266 --> 00:20:42,667
Foundation problems
are the last thing
that we need,
595
00:20:42,667 --> 00:20:47,200
they're time-consuming,
they're costly,
but there's no way around 'em.
596
00:20:47,266 --> 00:20:49,166
I mean, as long
as we can get the engineer
in here right away,
597
00:20:49,166 --> 00:20:50,324
we should be fine.
598
00:20:50,324 --> 00:20:50,400
we should be fine.
599
00:20:50,467 --> 00:20:51,000
I know we only have, like,
this one week of wiggle room.
600
00:20:53,066 --> 00:20:55,166
-Right.
-This will eat into that.
601
00:20:55,166 --> 00:20:58,367
However, I think we can keep
working on everything else
at the same time.
602
00:20:58,367 --> 00:21:00,900
You chisel and cut.
I'll make a call
to the engineer.
603
00:21:00,967 --> 00:21:03,266
-Let's keep things moving.
-You know what?
I'm already chiseled.
604
00:21:03,266 --> 00:21:04,533
-[laughs]
-Do you wanna help?
605
00:21:04,533 --> 00:21:06,500
True. The best way
to keep chiseled
is to keep chiseling.
606
00:21:06,567 --> 00:21:08,266
-[laughs] All right,
let's do it.
-[laughs] All right.
607
00:21:08,266 --> 00:21:09,467
But we gotta go
quite a bit bigger.
608
00:21:13,266 --> 00:21:14,767
While we wait
for the engineer to tell us
609
00:21:14,767 --> 00:21:17,266
how to proceed
with the structure
and foundation
610
00:21:17,266 --> 00:21:20,324
we can move ahead
on the one thing
this house needs the most.
611
00:21:20,324 --> 00:21:20,467
we can move ahead
on the one thing
this house needs the most.
612
00:21:20,467 --> 00:21:21,000
A front door.
613
00:21:23,700 --> 00:21:26,367
-Hang out.
-I love the fact that we got
a header already in place,
614
00:21:26,367 --> 00:21:27,767
that was from the window
that was here
615
00:21:27,767 --> 00:21:29,867
and our door is slightly
smaller than that.
616
00:21:29,867 --> 00:21:31,667
So we can use
the existing structure.
617
00:21:31,667 --> 00:21:33,900
I actually just think
it's pretty amazing
618
00:21:33,967 --> 00:21:36,600
that they lived here
this long without actually
trying to put a door in.
619
00:21:36,667 --> 00:21:38,467
I... I think I would've lasted
a month here.
620
00:21:38,467 --> 00:21:40,467
I feel like
they're stealing the joy
621
00:21:40,467 --> 00:21:42,867
of the neighborhood
kids being able
to ding-dong ditch them.
622
00:21:42,867 --> 00:21:44,500
-You can't take
that from the kids.
-No.
623
00:21:44,567 --> 00:21:45,934
[whirring]
624
00:21:45,934 --> 00:21:48,367
This is the first impression
people will have
of the new place.
625
00:21:50,967 --> 00:21:51,000
-We want it to be gorgeous.
-Gorg.
626
00:22:01,667 --> 00:22:03,300
We heard back
from the engineer,
627
00:22:03,300 --> 00:22:06,667
and the structural situation
with the beams is so much
worse than we thought.
628
00:22:07,367 --> 00:22:08,767
To open things up in here,
629
00:22:08,767 --> 00:22:11,667
not only do we have
to install rebar,
pour footings,
630
00:22:11,667 --> 00:22:14,667
and put posts in places
where the beams
are gonna come down,
631
00:22:14,667 --> 00:22:18,100
we also have to dig
trenches around the entire
perimeter of the house
632
00:22:18,100 --> 00:22:20,324
and reinforce the outside
with rebar, too.
633
00:22:20,324 --> 00:22:21,000
and reinforce the outside
with rebar, too.
634
00:22:21,166 --> 00:22:23,800
We have to make sure
this house
is structurally sound
635
00:22:23,867 --> 00:22:25,367
and completely safe.
636
00:22:25,367 --> 00:22:28,100
It's gonna cost
an extra $10,000.
637
00:22:28,100 --> 00:22:31,100
But worse than that,
it's gonna take
another eight weeks
638
00:22:31,166 --> 00:22:34,467
while we reapply
for permits and get all
the additional inspections.
639
00:22:34,467 --> 00:22:37,567
So we will not have
this place done
before the baby arrives
640
00:22:37,567 --> 00:22:40,667
and this is gonna be
pretty stressful
for Emilie and Bill.
641
00:22:40,667 --> 00:22:42,367
This is not a phone call
that I wanna make.
642
00:22:43,367 --> 00:22:44,800
[phone ringing]
643
00:22:44,867 --> 00:22:46,467
-[Emilie] Hello.
-[Jonathan] Hey.
644
00:22:46,467 --> 00:22:48,500
-Hey, what's up?
-How you doing?
645
00:22:48,567 --> 00:22:50,324
Can I just say how cute
you guys look.
646
00:22:50,324 --> 00:22:50,500
Can I just say how cute
you guys look.
647
00:22:50,567 --> 00:22:51,000
Are you trying
to butter us up
for something?
648
00:22:52,667 --> 00:22:54,166
I am. 'Cause, unfortunately,
I don't have very good new.
649
00:23:00,066 --> 00:23:01,467
-[Emilie] Hello.
-Hey.
650
00:23:01,467 --> 00:23:03,767
-Hey, what's up?
-How you doing?
651
00:23:03,767 --> 00:23:05,600
Can I just say how cute
you guys look.
652
00:23:05,667 --> 00:23:07,767
Are you trying
to butter us up
for something?
653
00:23:07,767 --> 00:23:09,900
I am. 'Cause, unfortunately,
I don't have very good new.
654
00:23:09,967 --> 00:23:11,500
[Emilie] What's going on?
655
00:23:11,500 --> 00:23:14,467
It turns out opening things up
between the kitchen
and the family room
656
00:23:14,467 --> 00:23:16,767
is a lot more work
than we anticipated.
657
00:23:16,767 --> 00:23:17,767
[Emilie and Bill] Oh.
658
00:23:17,767 --> 00:23:20,967
The slab is
in really rough shape.
659
00:23:20,967 --> 00:23:23,767
It's not up to code.
To bring everything
up to code,
660
00:23:23,767 --> 00:23:25,916
I mean, it's gonna be
almost $10,000.
661
00:23:25,916 --> 00:23:26,000
I mean, it's gonna be
almost $10,000.
662
00:23:26,467 --> 00:23:28,000
-[Emilie] 10 grand?
-[Bill] Oh, my God.
663
00:23:28,066 --> 00:23:29,166
That's a good chunk of change.
664
00:23:29,166 --> 00:23:30,367
These are serious problems.
665
00:23:32,667 --> 00:23:34,100
It's actually not
even just the money,
666
00:23:34,166 --> 00:23:35,767
it's also gonna take
a little more time.
667
00:23:35,767 --> 00:23:37,767
-Hmm.
-Oh, no, no,
668
00:23:37,767 --> 00:23:39,900
time is not
what we have. [chuckles]
669
00:23:39,967 --> 00:23:42,767
I mean, not only is it,
like, kind of a...
a money issue,
670
00:23:42,767 --> 00:23:46,367
but it's also a time issue.
Like, this baby is coming.
671
00:23:46,367 --> 00:23:48,367
This is not a pressure
of wanting to be back
in my house.
672
00:23:48,367 --> 00:23:52,166
-This is a pressure of needing
to be back in my house.
-[chuckles] Yeah.
673
00:23:52,166 --> 00:23:54,667
I just feel so bad,
because a new baby means
674
00:23:54,667 --> 00:23:55,916
parents wanna have
that comfort and routine
of home more than ever
675
00:23:55,916 --> 00:23:56,000
parents wanna have
that comfort and routine
of home more than ever
676
00:23:58,066 --> 00:24:00,467
and they wanna save
money, not spend it.
677
00:24:00,467 --> 00:24:03,467
We were planning
for this renovation
to take eight weeks,
678
00:24:03,467 --> 00:24:06,567
and now it is gonna double
to four months.
679
00:24:06,567 --> 00:24:08,567
We are not gonna be
ready for the baby
680
00:24:08,567 --> 00:24:12,166
and that is gonna be
pretty hard news
for them to take.
681
00:24:12,166 --> 00:24:14,500
I will save the money
wherever I can
682
00:24:14,567 --> 00:24:17,400
and I'll speed up construction
in any way that I can,
683
00:24:17,467 --> 00:24:20,400
but we just have
to wait on the city
for all these approvals
684
00:24:20,467 --> 00:24:22,700
and there's not really
anything else we can do.
685
00:24:24,967 --> 00:24:25,916
We wanna keep things
moving along for Emilie
and Bill's house,
686
00:24:25,916 --> 00:24:26,000
We wanna keep things
moving along for Emilie
and Bill's house,
687
00:24:27,767 --> 00:24:30,467
so while we wait
on the approvals
from the city,
688
00:24:30,467 --> 00:24:31,900
Drew and I are gonna start
to focus on the finishes
689
00:24:31,967 --> 00:24:34,100
for this modern
farmhouse design.
690
00:24:34,100 --> 00:24:37,500
I figured you'd be impressed
with my attention to detail.
691
00:24:37,567 --> 00:24:39,000
You used some AI
for this, didn't you?
692
00:24:39,066 --> 00:24:40,767
Yeah, I used me,
"Andrew intelligence."
693
00:24:40,767 --> 00:24:42,667
-"Andrew intelligence"?
[chuckles]
-[Drew] Yeah.
694
00:24:42,667 --> 00:24:44,166
[Jonathan] They don't have
a ton of square footage,
695
00:24:44,166 --> 00:24:47,967
but we want something
that still feels fresh
and inviting.
696
00:24:47,967 --> 00:24:49,967
And knowing
that they're in the country,
697
00:24:49,967 --> 00:24:52,266
it has to have a lot
of those wood tones
and country vibes.
698
00:24:52,266 --> 00:24:54,066
[Drew] Well, I think the bench
where we're gonna do
699
00:24:54,066 --> 00:24:55,916
the dining area,
that wood tone
is gonna be perfect,
700
00:24:55,916 --> 00:24:56,000
the dining area,
that wood tone
is gonna be perfect,
701
00:24:56,467 --> 00:24:58,266
it's gonna really be
a nice draw for the space.
702
00:24:58,266 --> 00:25:00,667
[Jonathan] Let me
pull a wood tone.
703
00:25:00,667 --> 00:25:02,133
[Drew] Something very natural.
704
00:25:02,133 --> 00:25:04,767
[Jonathan] Yeah.
[Drew] I mean, I think
this is just a beautiful tone.
705
00:25:04,767 --> 00:25:06,600
[Jonathan] They want
pops of color the design,
706
00:25:06,667 --> 00:25:09,567
so for our cushion,
blues probably?
707
00:25:09,567 --> 00:25:10,567
[Drew] That's kind of nice.
708
00:25:10,567 --> 00:25:12,567
I like the little gold touch
in there, too.
709
00:25:12,567 --> 00:25:15,266
-What about this?
-[Jonathan] Yeah, exactly.
710
00:25:15,266 --> 00:25:16,266
[Drew] Yeah, I like that.
711
00:25:16,266 --> 00:25:17,467
[Jonathan]
So, what about out kitchen?
712
00:25:17,467 --> 00:25:19,266
They just want
light and fresh.
713
00:25:19,266 --> 00:25:21,567
They don't need
a multi-colored kitchen.
714
00:25:21,567 --> 00:25:24,166
Possibly semi-custom
to save on budget.
715
00:25:24,166 --> 00:25:25,200
Creamy white?
716
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:27,834
[Drew] Actually, we could do
tall shaker, too.
717
00:25:27,834 --> 00:25:29,867
You know, something
that's a little bit more
modern, not to thick.
718
00:25:30,500 --> 00:25:33,667
I would say between these two.
719
00:25:33,667 --> 00:25:36,900
I think this is nice.
There's a fresh feel to it.
720
00:25:36,967 --> 00:25:38,900
[Drew] They want light
countertops as well?
721
00:25:38,967 --> 00:25:40,967
[Jonathan] Yes, light
throughout the entire kitchen.
722
00:25:40,967 --> 00:25:43,567
Something with veining,
kind of like that?
723
00:25:43,567 --> 00:25:45,367
[Drew] Well,
since there's gonna be
a lot of light in there,
724
00:25:45,367 --> 00:25:47,867
maybe it is nice to get
a little more veining.
725
00:25:47,867 --> 00:25:50,867
When I took Emilie
and Bill to that ocean side
restaurant for inspiration,
726
00:25:50,867 --> 00:25:53,567
Bill loved
the wall panel detail.
727
00:25:53,567 --> 00:25:55,916
So, what if we go
with the textured
wallpaper here instead?
728
00:25:55,916 --> 00:25:56,000
So, what if we go
with the textured
wallpaper here instead?
729
00:25:56,166 --> 00:25:59,200
In the dining area,
it'll sort of add some depth
to that side of the house.
730
00:25:59,266 --> 00:26:00,567
Yeah, no, this will be nice.
731
00:26:00,567 --> 00:26:02,000
[Drew] And give them
a neutral texture
732
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,000
without the cost
of a custom wood treatment.
733
00:26:04,066 --> 00:26:05,567
Okay, flooring.
734
00:26:05,567 --> 00:26:07,567
My recommendation
would be a little lighter
735
00:26:07,567 --> 00:26:09,500
-than the other wood work
that we're doing.
-[Drew] Okay.
736
00:26:09,567 --> 00:26:12,367
[Jonathan]
It complements the cabinets,
it complements the counters.
737
00:26:12,367 --> 00:26:13,834
[Drew] The bench.
738
00:26:13,834 --> 00:26:17,200
And I think opening things
up alone will make
their space transform.
739
00:26:17,266 --> 00:26:19,700
-Yeah.
-Now, there's gonna have
this beautiful view
740
00:26:19,767 --> 00:26:21,567
-and a beautiful home
to go with it.
-Yeah.
741
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,667
[Jonathan] Waiting
is never easy,
742
00:26:24,667 --> 00:26:25,916
but thankfully,
we got the permits
743
00:26:25,916 --> 00:26:26,000
but thankfully,
we got the permits
744
00:26:26,667 --> 00:26:28,266
for the structural work
at Bill and Emilie's,
745
00:26:28,266 --> 00:26:29,700
and we are back at it.
746
00:26:29,767 --> 00:26:31,800
We have a lot
of ground to cover
747
00:26:31,867 --> 00:26:33,967
to get this house
structurally sound
748
00:26:33,967 --> 00:26:36,000
and completely up to code.
749
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,867
First, we have
to install rebar,
750
00:26:37,867 --> 00:26:40,200
not only in the places
where the footings
will be poured
751
00:26:40,266 --> 00:26:42,200
to hold up
our three huge beams,
752
00:26:42,266 --> 00:26:44,000
but also along
the outside wall
753
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,200
where support
was really lacking.
754
00:26:46,266 --> 00:26:48,100
Then we can pour
the huge amounts
of concrete
755
00:26:48,166 --> 00:26:50,500
required to hold
everything in place
756
00:26:50,567 --> 00:26:53,166
and make the footings
for our beams rock solid.
757
00:26:55,567 --> 00:26:55,916
The massive structural
overhaul of Bill
and Emilie's house
758
00:26:55,916 --> 00:26:56,000
The massive structural
overhaul of Bill
and Emilie's house
759
00:26:58,166 --> 00:26:59,967
has put us
way behind schedule,
760
00:26:59,967 --> 00:27:02,700
but it was necessary
to make the house safe.
761
00:27:02,767 --> 00:27:05,867
But in the meantime,
we're crossing our fingers
for an inspection next week.
762
00:27:05,867 --> 00:27:09,500
And we actually did today
get the best news ever.
763
00:27:09,567 --> 00:27:11,266
Beautiful baby Sophie
has arrived.
764
00:27:11,266 --> 00:27:14,066
[Drew] We're happy to hear
that Emilie and Sophie
are doing well.
765
00:27:14,066 --> 00:27:15,467
I remember
when Parker as born,
766
00:27:15,467 --> 00:27:18,700
I can't imagine Linda
not being able
to recover at home.
767
00:27:18,767 --> 00:27:22,066
So every day, week, month
of delays that we have,
768
00:27:22,066 --> 00:27:24,700
it's stressing us out.
We just wanna get this family
back in their home.
769
00:27:28,100 --> 00:27:29,367
[Drew] With
the inspection complete,
770
00:27:29,367 --> 00:27:30,867
we can finally
put in the beams
771
00:27:30,867 --> 00:27:33,066
that will make it possible
to open everything up.
772
00:27:34,967 --> 00:27:36,467
These guys wanted great flow
773
00:27:36,467 --> 00:27:38,600
between their kitchen,
living and dining room.
774
00:27:38,667 --> 00:27:40,066
And now
we can give it to them.
775
00:27:43,266 --> 00:27:44,433
Emillie's dream was to have
776
00:27:44,467 --> 00:27:47,000
a true chef's kitchen
in the front of the house
777
00:27:47,066 --> 00:27:48,867
with a huge stunning island,
778
00:27:48,867 --> 00:27:51,600
lots of storage
and ample room
to cook and entertain.
779
00:27:52,367 --> 00:27:53,767
But in order to give her that,
780
00:27:53,767 --> 00:27:55,916
we had to reframe
the entire main living area.
781
00:27:55,916 --> 00:27:56,000
we had to reframe
the entire main living area.
782
00:27:57,166 --> 00:27:58,867
Today, we're opening up
the side walls
783
00:27:58,867 --> 00:28:00,400
so we can frame up
a new window
784
00:28:00,467 --> 00:28:02,800
that'll give them the view
from the kitchen sink
785
00:28:02,867 --> 00:28:04,000
all the way
to their backyard farm.
786
00:28:06,367 --> 00:28:07,567
[Jonathan] Doesn't wanna go?
787
00:28:07,567 --> 00:28:09,467
-[man] No.
-[Jonathan] It's...
There's always one.
788
00:28:09,467 --> 00:28:12,367
Oh my gosh,
I feel like everything
in this house
789
00:28:12,367 --> 00:28:14,000
is a pain in the butt.
790
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,000
You know, some houses,
you start demoing,
791
00:28:16,066 --> 00:28:17,600
oh, things are where
they're supposed to be,
792
00:28:17,667 --> 00:28:18,467
you can re-use as much.
793
00:28:19,300 --> 00:28:21,500
Very little here
can be re-used.
794
00:28:21,567 --> 00:28:22,367
That's so true.
795
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:23,800
I keep saying to myself,
796
00:28:24,467 --> 00:28:25,600
it'll be worth the window.
797
00:28:25,667 --> 00:28:25,916
-It'll be worth the window.
-[chuckles]
798
00:28:25,916 --> 00:28:26,000
-It'll be worth the window.
-[chuckles]
799
00:28:27,166 --> 00:28:28,967
[Jonathan] We're never
gonna completely make up
800
00:28:28,967 --> 00:28:30,066
for the eight weeks we lost
801
00:28:30,066 --> 00:28:32,000
due to all the unforeseen
structural issue.
802
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,166
But we can pick up the pace.
803
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,166
Once the
new kitchen windows are in,
804
00:28:36,166 --> 00:28:38,266
our trades
will be pulling long shifts
805
00:28:38,266 --> 00:28:40,300
getting all the rest
of the plumbing
and electrical installed.
806
00:28:46,867 --> 00:28:48,166
[Jonathan] We have
only four weeks left
807
00:28:48,166 --> 00:28:49,100
so we're pulling in
808
00:28:49,100 --> 00:28:50,400
every favor we can
809
00:28:50,467 --> 00:28:51,667
to get this job done.
810
00:28:52,867 --> 00:28:54,500
We're putting in
a new sliding door
811
00:28:54,567 --> 00:28:55,916
where their old entry
used to be.
812
00:28:55,916 --> 00:28:56,000
where their old entry
used to be.
813
00:28:56,166 --> 00:28:57,300
It'll give this family
814
00:28:57,367 --> 00:28:58,667
a better
and more convenient access
815
00:28:58,667 --> 00:29:00,500
to their
gorgeous backyard farm
816
00:29:00,567 --> 00:29:01,700
and let in a lot more light.
817
00:29:03,867 --> 00:29:05,200
That looks way better.
Look at that.
818
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,667
Five foot, quarter inch.
819
00:29:08,667 --> 00:29:10,567
-Perfect
for our five foot slider.
-Yeah.
820
00:29:10,567 --> 00:29:12,000
Yeah, exactly.
821
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,200
Sometimes it's nice to have...
822
00:29:13,867 --> 00:29:15,400
a door you can slide open.
823
00:29:15,467 --> 00:29:17,100
You don't have to worry
about the wind grabbing it,
824
00:29:17,100 --> 00:29:18,667
crashing it close,
or anything like that.
825
00:29:18,667 --> 00:29:21,000
Give you the flow
that you need and, you know,
826
00:29:21,066 --> 00:29:23,000
play time in the backyard,
827
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,166
birthday parties, you name it.
828
00:29:24,166 --> 00:29:25,916
Run inside to grab something
from the kitchen,
829
00:29:25,916 --> 00:29:26,000
Run inside to grab something
from the kitchen,
830
00:29:26,367 --> 00:29:28,000
living room, all of a sudden.
831
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,500
This is just gonna
improve everything.
832
00:29:29,567 --> 00:29:31,667
-They're truly
gonna love this place.
-Yeah.
833
00:29:31,667 --> 00:29:33,567
I'm not getting emotional.
I'm just...
834
00:29:33,567 --> 00:29:35,500
-I have some saw dust
in my eyes.
-Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
835
00:29:35,567 --> 00:29:36,867
-Trust me, it is actually
just saw dust.
-[imitating crying]
836
00:29:36,867 --> 00:29:37,800
I know, I saw.
837
00:29:37,867 --> 00:29:39,500
[both laughing]
838
00:29:39,567 --> 00:29:42,066
[Jonathan] Bill and Emillie
had really old
single pane windows
839
00:29:42,066 --> 00:29:44,767
that made this house
unbearably hot
in the summer heat.
840
00:29:44,767 --> 00:29:47,667
So we're replacing them
with all new
energy efficient windows
841
00:29:47,667 --> 00:29:50,066
that will keep the house
at the perfect temperature
842
00:29:50,066 --> 00:29:51,700
and reduce their energy costs.
843
00:29:51,700 --> 00:29:54,567
And it's finally time
to give these guys
what they've been missing.
844
00:29:54,567 --> 00:29:55,916
We're installing
a gorgeous glass front door
845
00:29:55,916 --> 00:29:56,000
We're installing
a gorgeous glass front door
846
00:29:56,867 --> 00:29:57,967
that will not only look great
847
00:29:57,967 --> 00:29:59,567
but will let in
an incredible amount of light.
848
00:30:00,500 --> 00:30:01,667
And with everything opened up
849
00:30:01,667 --> 00:30:03,700
and all surfaces
structurally sound
850
00:30:03,767 --> 00:30:05,233
we're putting up drywall.
851
00:30:05,233 --> 00:30:08,066
It's already making
this space feel
so much more defined.
852
00:30:09,567 --> 00:30:12,066
Finally we're pouring concrete
over the bumps in the kitchen
853
00:30:12,066 --> 00:30:13,700
to make everything
perfectly level.
854
00:30:16,967 --> 00:30:18,266
This is gonna be so good.
855
00:30:23,867 --> 00:30:27,000
You know that feeling you get
when the big boss shows up
856
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,266
to find that why
your job is behind schedule?
857
00:30:29,266 --> 00:30:32,100
Well, that's what
I feel like right now
with baby Sophie
858
00:30:32,100 --> 00:30:34,000
because baby Sophie's arrived
859
00:30:34,066 --> 00:30:35,266
and is not able to come home.
860
00:30:35,266 --> 00:30:37,100
Yeah, but don't be fooled
by that cute little baby face
861
00:30:37,166 --> 00:30:39,667
because I am still afraid
of disappointing her.
862
00:30:39,667 --> 00:30:41,166
[Jonathan] Now that
the walls are closed up
863
00:30:41,166 --> 00:30:42,667
we can start to work
on the finishes
864
00:30:42,667 --> 00:30:43,667
which will be nice.
865
00:30:43,667 --> 00:30:45,000
But I wanna make sure
that this house
866
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,066
is not just functioning better
for this expanded family,
867
00:30:48,066 --> 00:30:49,200
it's also stylish.
868
00:30:50,867 --> 00:30:51,000
I can't wait to see
the grill back in, the logs,
869
00:30:52,867 --> 00:30:55,000
and have it
actually look like a feature
870
00:30:55,066 --> 00:30:56,166
that you wanna huddle around.
871
00:30:56,166 --> 00:30:58,166
Well, that stucco finish
looks so much cleaner
872
00:30:58,166 --> 00:31:00,066
than the brick
and it feels less intrusive
873
00:31:00,066 --> 00:31:01,266
into the space. I love it.
874
00:31:01,266 --> 00:31:03,367
[Jonathan] It needed
a little bit of a... a trim.
875
00:31:03,367 --> 00:31:05,200
-[Drew] Yeah.
-Little fireplace haircut.
876
00:31:05,266 --> 00:31:08,166
This is the right size.
You can tell that it fits
the space perfectly.
877
00:31:08,166 --> 00:31:10,567
[Drew grunts] Got so much
junk in here.
878
00:31:10,567 --> 00:31:12,000
A lot of junk
in this trunk.
879
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,166
[Ryan laughs]
880
00:31:13,166 --> 00:31:14,767
But this is sort of like
that little trick.
881
00:31:14,767 --> 00:31:17,367
If you have that beautiful
fireplace feature like this,
882
00:31:17,367 --> 00:31:20,000
but you leave the box
looking old, and dated,
and rough.
883
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:20,652
If you have a new facade,
just painted out, like makes
it look like it's brand new.
884
00:31:20,652 --> 00:31:21,000
If you have a new facade,
just painted out, like makes
it look like it's brand new.
885
00:31:23,166 --> 00:31:24,367
Makes a huge difference.
886
00:31:24,367 --> 00:31:27,000
[Drew] This feels
more low profile
than it did before
887
00:31:27,066 --> 00:31:28,800
and I think it's helping
reflect the light
888
00:31:28,867 --> 00:31:30,400
-and make it
feel bigger in here.
-For sure.
889
00:31:36,567 --> 00:31:38,066
[Jonathan] All of
our slab issues,
890
00:31:38,066 --> 00:31:39,667
foundation problems,
have been fixed
891
00:31:39,667 --> 00:31:42,300
and our flooring is beautiful
and level. Looks great.
892
00:31:43,300 --> 00:31:45,767
A whole lotta [whistles]
coming into this house.
893
00:31:47,100 --> 00:31:48,700
[Drew] Now that the floors
are perfectly level,
894
00:31:48,767 --> 00:31:50,652
we can put in their cabinets
in that huge beautiful island.
895
00:31:50,652 --> 00:31:51,000
we can put in their cabinets
in that huge beautiful island.
896
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,066
These guys said they want
a luxury kitchen
897
00:31:54,066 --> 00:31:55,367
and we took that to heart.
898
00:31:55,367 --> 00:31:57,266
And now we're gonna put in
that gorgeous farmhouse sink.
899
00:31:59,567 --> 00:32:01,900
-I think
that's enough. Yeah?
-Yeah.
900
00:32:01,967 --> 00:32:03,867
Actually let's just
dry fit it.
901
00:32:03,867 --> 00:32:06,200
-Give you a hand.
-I mean, it's pretty heavy.
902
00:32:06,266 --> 00:32:07,867
But I work out.
watch your hand.
903
00:32:07,867 --> 00:32:09,700
-[Ryan chuckles]
-[Drew] Hold up. Yeah.
904
00:32:09,767 --> 00:32:10,567
[Ryan] Oh, yeah.
905
00:32:11,266 --> 00:32:12,767
Measure the front.
906
00:32:12,767 --> 00:32:14,166
-Check the size.
-Should do it.
907
00:32:14,166 --> 00:32:17,900
This is gorgeous.
I can picture her here
looking out the window
908
00:32:17,967 --> 00:32:20,652
at a beautiful view of kids,
chickens, maybe even horses.
909
00:32:20,652 --> 00:32:21,000
at a beautiful view of kids,
chickens, maybe even horses.
910
00:32:22,266 --> 00:32:23,600
Bill skipping
through the yard.
911
00:32:23,667 --> 00:32:25,166
-[chuckles]
-I mean,
912
00:32:25,166 --> 00:32:27,400
that's where
your front door should be,
not at the back to the house.
913
00:32:27,467 --> 00:32:28,400
[Ryan] For sure.
914
00:32:33,967 --> 00:32:35,100
[Drew] At
the Malibu restaurant
915
00:32:35,100 --> 00:32:37,066
where I took Emillie
and Bill for inspiration,
916
00:32:37,066 --> 00:32:39,100
they realized
that they really liked
the idea
917
00:32:39,100 --> 00:32:41,767
of having a stylish banquette
with storage in their space
918
00:32:41,767 --> 00:32:44,300
instead of
a regular old dining table.
919
00:32:44,367 --> 00:32:46,066
And we thought
the perfect place for one
920
00:32:46,066 --> 00:32:47,867
is close to the fireplace
in the living room.
921
00:32:49,767 --> 00:32:50,652
Doesn't the millwork
around the banquette
look beautiful?
922
00:32:50,652 --> 00:32:51,000
Doesn't the millwork
around the banquette
look beautiful?
923
00:32:53,266 --> 00:32:54,867
I think it was a really
cost effective way
924
00:32:54,867 --> 00:32:56,300
to add so much more function
into this space.
925
00:32:57,367 --> 00:32:58,700
-How you doing?
-Good.
926
00:32:58,767 --> 00:33:00,066
Here we have
a statement fixture
927
00:33:00,066 --> 00:33:01,300
we're putting
in the dining room.
928
00:33:01,300 --> 00:33:03,667
[Jonathan] 'Cause you have
that beautiful grasscloth
929
00:33:03,667 --> 00:33:05,066
the nice, warm tone
of the wood,
930
00:33:05,066 --> 00:33:06,200
the round table.
931
00:33:06,266 --> 00:33:08,500
Having a statement fixture
centered over that table
932
00:33:08,567 --> 00:33:10,700
will make everything
feel purposeful.
933
00:33:10,767 --> 00:33:12,967
It's just gonna feel serene.
934
00:33:12,967 --> 00:33:15,367
Bill and Emillie needs serene,
especially with a new baby.
935
00:33:15,367 --> 00:33:17,300
Actually, you...
you probably have
some advice for them.
936
00:33:17,367 --> 00:33:18,800
Yeah, well,
they have advice for me
937
00:33:18,867 --> 00:33:19,867
because they have
an older kid,
938
00:33:19,867 --> 00:33:20,652
and then they've probably
forgot everything
939
00:33:20,652 --> 00:33:21,000
and then they've probably
forgot everything
940
00:33:21,066 --> 00:33:22,233
so now I can give them advice.
941
00:33:22,266 --> 00:33:24,467
-Yeah, so it's fresh
in your mind right now.
-Yeah.
942
00:33:24,467 --> 00:33:25,867
-All right, let's get this up.
-Resume.
943
00:33:25,867 --> 00:33:27,000
Just the second one.
944
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,467
-Up again.
-There you go.
945
00:33:29,300 --> 00:33:30,467
You good?
946
00:33:31,667 --> 00:33:34,500
-[Jonathan] Ho, ho, ho!
Look at that.
-[Drew] Ooh!
947
00:33:34,567 --> 00:33:36,100
[Drew] This kitchen
is the first thing you see
948
00:33:36,166 --> 00:33:39,467
when you walk in
Emillie and Bill's
brand new front door.
949
00:33:39,467 --> 00:33:41,266
So it had to be
a complete knockout.
950
00:33:41,266 --> 00:33:43,867
Gorgeous stone counters,
huge beautiful island,
951
00:33:43,867 --> 00:33:46,166
and tons of room and storage.
952
00:33:46,166 --> 00:33:47,767
Their old kitchen
was a disaster,
953
00:33:47,767 --> 00:33:49,967
but this one,
a complete show stopper.
954
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,166
It's getting so close,
955
00:34:03,166 --> 00:34:04,900
we brought in
so many reinforcements
956
00:34:04,967 --> 00:34:07,300
to get everything done
right down to the dressing.
957
00:34:08,567 --> 00:34:11,567
We did double the timeline
on this project.
958
00:34:11,567 --> 00:34:13,867
But, we have
the satisfaction of knowing
959
00:34:13,867 --> 00:34:15,567
that this house is now safe
960
00:34:15,567 --> 00:34:16,767
for this beautiful,
young, family.
961
00:34:16,767 --> 00:34:18,900
Bill and Emillie
can finally love
their new home,
962
00:34:18,967 --> 00:34:20,652
their amazing country
in the city life
963
00:34:20,652 --> 00:34:20,667
their amazing country
in the city life
964
00:34:20,667 --> 00:34:21,000
and their new baby.
965
00:34:21,767 --> 00:34:22,667
[Jonathan] So many chairs.
966
00:34:23,967 --> 00:34:25,200
Isn't it so much better?
967
00:34:25,266 --> 00:34:26,500
Hold on. Why does your fruit
968
00:34:26,567 --> 00:34:28,000
look so much nicer
than my fruit?
969
00:34:28,066 --> 00:34:29,467
I'm just oranges.
And you're bringing in
the exotics.
970
00:34:30,100 --> 00:34:31,300
[Katelyn] I just got lucky.
971
00:34:31,300 --> 00:34:34,266
-Oh my gosh, talk about
a world of difference.
-Really?
972
00:34:34,266 --> 00:34:35,667
I think
they're gonna be shocked
973
00:34:35,667 --> 00:34:37,100
walking into a kitchen
974
00:34:37,100 --> 00:34:39,200
with an island that is
as long as this one.
975
00:34:39,266 --> 00:34:40,967
It's just gonna be amazing.
976
00:34:40,967 --> 00:34:42,200
This is really gonna be
the family hub.
977
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,767
Walking in the front door
978
00:34:44,767 --> 00:34:46,367
will be
an enjoyable experience now
979
00:34:46,367 --> 00:34:49,667
-because before,
it was walking into a wall.
-[Drew] Yeah. [laughs]
980
00:34:49,667 --> 00:34:50,652
So this is
gonna blow their minds.
981
00:34:50,652 --> 00:34:50,867
So this is
gonna blow their minds.
982
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,667
[Jonathan] The fireplace...
983
00:34:56,667 --> 00:34:58,600
-looks phenomenal.
-[Drew] It's gorgeous.
984
00:34:58,667 --> 00:35:00,100
[Jonathan] It anchors
everything.
985
00:35:00,166 --> 00:35:03,367
It actually makes this
now feel like
a more intimate space.
986
00:35:03,367 --> 00:35:05,767
I just want to sit here
and stare at this fireplace
987
00:35:05,767 --> 00:35:07,767
because it was such
a beast before,
988
00:35:07,767 --> 00:35:08,967
it was a monstrosity.
989
00:35:08,967 --> 00:35:10,367
It was like you
in the morning.
990
00:35:10,367 --> 00:35:11,767
-Hard to look at.
-[Drew laughs]
991
00:35:11,767 --> 00:35:13,600
-Still is.
-I think we're good.
992
00:35:13,667 --> 00:35:15,767
I say we get Emillie and Bill,
let's see what they think.
993
00:35:15,767 --> 00:35:16,600
All right.
994
00:35:24,567 --> 00:35:25,634
-[Emillie] Oh.
-[Drew] Hmm?
995
00:35:25,634 --> 00:35:27,000
-[Emillie] I see a door.
-[Bill] Oh, there you go.
996
00:35:27,066 --> 00:35:28,200
-[Emillie] Oh my God,
there's a door.
-[Bill laughs]
997
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:29,767
[Jonathan] Now you don't need
your old backyard door
998
00:35:29,767 --> 00:35:31,166
to get into the house.
999
00:35:31,166 --> 00:35:33,000
-[Bill] Oh my goodness. Wow.
-[Emillie] Oh my gosh.
Here we go.
1000
00:35:34,500 --> 00:35:35,500
[Bill] Oh my gosh.
1001
00:35:35,867 --> 00:35:36,967
[gasps]
1002
00:35:41,467 --> 00:35:42,500
[Emillie] It's happening,
Bill, it's happening.
1003
00:35:42,567 --> 00:35:43,567
-[Bill] Oh my goodness.
-[Emillie] Oh my gosh.
1004
00:35:43,567 --> 00:35:44,467
-[Bill] Wow.
-[Emillie] Here we go.
1005
00:35:45,066 --> 00:35:46,166
[Bill] Oh my gosh.
1006
00:35:46,166 --> 00:35:47,700
[both] Wow!
1007
00:35:48,700 --> 00:35:51,000
Oh my God, it's so beautiful.
1008
00:35:51,066 --> 00:35:52,500
[Bill] Oh my gosh, incredible.
1009
00:35:52,567 --> 00:35:53,900
-[Emillie] This is amazing.
-[Bill] Can you believe it?
1010
00:35:53,967 --> 00:35:55,500
[Emillie] It's huge.
1011
00:35:55,567 --> 00:35:56,967
Did you guys add
square footage?
1012
00:35:56,967 --> 00:35:57,967
We did not.
1013
00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:59,300
Uh, you would think...
I mean it does feel...
1014
00:35:59,367 --> 00:36:01,100
-It feels taller,
it feels wider.
-[Bill] Yeah.
1015
00:36:01,100 --> 00:36:03,500
It feels so huge.
1016
00:36:03,567 --> 00:36:05,266
-Look at how big
this island is.
-[Bill] I don't know how they
1017
00:36:05,266 --> 00:36:06,467
got this island in here.
1018
00:36:06,467 --> 00:36:08,300
[Jonathan] Ben has tons
of room to cook.
1019
00:36:08,367 --> 00:36:09,533
You can even take
the kids into
1020
00:36:09,533 --> 00:36:09,804
-a fashion runway show
along here.
-Yeah, I think.
1021
00:36:09,804 --> 00:36:10,000
-a fashion runway show
along here.
-Yeah, I think.
1022
00:36:12,066 --> 00:36:14,867
[Bill] It's totally
transformed by the addition
of this massive island.
1023
00:36:14,867 --> 00:36:16,333
[Emillie] It's huge.
1024
00:36:16,333 --> 00:36:18,166
I thought you guys
are gonna give us, like,
a little two foot island.
1025
00:36:18,166 --> 00:36:19,467
-This is huge.
-[Bill laughs] Yeah.
1026
00:36:19,467 --> 00:36:21,567
Do I look like
a two foot island kind of guy?
1027
00:36:21,567 --> 00:36:23,266
[Jonathan] I mean, come on,
I'm insulted.
1028
00:36:23,266 --> 00:36:24,600
Then the passive color.
1029
00:36:24,667 --> 00:36:26,600
-These look so cute.
-[Bill] Yeah.
1030
00:36:26,667 --> 00:36:30,000
-Oh my God. And there's
storage everywhere.
-[Bill chuckles] Yeah.
1031
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,100
[Jonathan] You have
pantry storage.
1032
00:36:31,100 --> 00:36:32,767
[Emillie] Oh, yeah,
the storage. Excuse me.
1033
00:36:32,767 --> 00:36:34,000
[Bill laughs]
1034
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,700
-No problem.
-[Emillie] Oh my God, that...
1035
00:36:35,767 --> 00:36:37,200
This is absolutely staying.
1036
00:36:37,266 --> 00:36:38,533
I can't believe
how deep they are.
1037
00:36:38,533 --> 00:36:39,804
-We've never had
storage like this.
-[Bill] Oh my gosh, no.
1038
00:36:39,804 --> 00:36:40,000
-We've never had
storage like this.
-[Bill] Oh my gosh, no.
1039
00:36:40,667 --> 00:36:42,667
-It's perfect. Oh my God.
-Bill, look at the sink.
1040
00:36:42,667 --> 00:36:43,867
-[Bill] Perfect.
-[Emillie] Oh my gosh,
1041
00:36:43,867 --> 00:36:45,767
-this is just gorgeous.
-[Bill] Oh my gosh.
1042
00:36:45,767 --> 00:36:47,867
[Emillie] Look
at these windows.
1043
00:36:47,867 --> 00:36:50,100
This is, like, amazing.
1044
00:36:50,100 --> 00:36:51,500
I had high
and high hopes for this,
1045
00:36:51,567 --> 00:36:53,166
definitely exceeded it.
That's for sure.
1046
00:36:53,166 --> 00:36:56,400
This was such a useless space
before over here.
1047
00:36:56,467 --> 00:36:59,166
-[Emillie] It was. Was this...
-This is the dining room area.
[Bill] Yeah.
1048
00:36:59,166 --> 00:37:00,667
[Jonathan] This feels like
the floor plan
1049
00:37:00,667 --> 00:37:01,867
that you guys really needed.
1050
00:37:01,867 --> 00:37:05,266
Great open flow
and clearly defined spaces.
1051
00:37:05,266 --> 00:37:07,567
It's all... It's all cohesive.
It's all together.
1052
00:37:07,567 --> 00:37:09,567
-We can walk around freely.
-Oh, yeah.
1053
00:37:09,567 --> 00:37:09,804
-The mailman is gonna love you
-[Emillie laughs]
1054
00:37:09,804 --> 00:37:10,000
-The mailman is gonna love you
-[Emillie laughs]
1055
00:37:11,567 --> 00:37:13,867
-'cause he has a door
to come to.
-[Jonathan] Oh this is where
1056
00:37:13,867 --> 00:37:15,266
-we put the packages.
-[Drew] Yeah.
1057
00:37:15,266 --> 00:37:17,000
Thanks guys. [laughs]
1058
00:37:17,066 --> 00:37:18,500
[Jonathan] What'd you think
of the appliances?
1059
00:37:18,567 --> 00:37:19,367
They are top of the line.
1060
00:37:20,066 --> 00:37:22,300
[Emillie] This is so fancy.
1061
00:37:22,367 --> 00:37:24,200
-We never would have...
-Yeah. Exactly.
1062
00:37:24,266 --> 00:37:25,867
-known what to pick
and what to get.
-[Drew] Yeah.
1063
00:37:25,867 --> 00:37:27,500
-[Emillie] Look
at this stove top.
-[Bill] Yeah, oh my gosh.
1064
00:37:27,567 --> 00:37:28,667
-The pot filling I love.
-[Emillie gasps] I...
1065
00:37:28,667 --> 00:37:29,900
That's how you know
you've made it in life,
1066
00:37:29,967 --> 00:37:30,867
when you have a pot filler.
1067
00:37:30,867 --> 00:37:32,100
[all laughing]
1068
00:37:32,100 --> 00:37:33,900
-So Bill,
we made it in life. [laughs]
-Yeah. [laughs]
1069
00:37:33,967 --> 00:37:37,467
[Emillie] Oh my gosh,
look at... I mean, this is
all just so beautiful.
1070
00:37:37,467 --> 00:37:39,467
Oh, I love that
the buttons are on top.
1071
00:37:39,467 --> 00:37:39,804
-'Cause I really...
-Dishwasher in here.
1072
00:37:39,804 --> 00:37:40,000
-'Cause I really...
-Dishwasher in here.
1073
00:37:40,567 --> 00:37:42,266
-No way, really?
-Oh wow.
1074
00:37:42,266 --> 00:37:45,200
-[Emillie gasps]
That is so me.
-[Bill] Oh my gosh.
1075
00:37:45,266 --> 00:37:46,266
And look, the fridge.
1076
00:37:46,266 --> 00:37:48,567
-This is so gorgeous.
-Absolutely.
1077
00:37:48,567 --> 00:37:50,000
Oh my God. Absolutely perfect.
1078
00:37:50,066 --> 00:37:52,200
And you came up with, like,
the perfect combination
of counter top.
1079
00:37:52,266 --> 00:37:53,467
-Mmm-hmm.
-I know we were, like,
1080
00:37:53,467 --> 00:37:55,100
-you know, plain,
vein, vein, plain.
-[Drew] Okay.
1081
00:37:55,100 --> 00:37:56,767
Let's all be honest...
1082
00:37:56,767 --> 00:37:59,266
It took you a while
to figure out
how to communicate
1083
00:37:59,266 --> 00:38:00,467
-what you were looking for.
-[laughs]
1084
00:38:00,467 --> 00:38:03,000
But you really wanted to have
a modern farmhouse vibe
1085
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:04,266
and I feel you've got that.
1086
00:38:04,266 --> 00:38:05,567
[Emillie] You did it.
You nailed it.
1087
00:38:05,567 --> 00:38:08,900
It doesn't feel too farmhouse,
it doesn't feel too modern.
1088
00:38:08,967 --> 00:38:09,804
-It feels somewhere
right down the middle.
-[Bill] Yup, exactly. Yeah.
1089
00:38:09,804 --> 00:38:10,000
-It feels somewhere
right down the middle.
-[Bill] Yup, exactly. Yeah.
1090
00:38:10,767 --> 00:38:13,567
-[Emillie] Oh my God, and--
-[Jonathan] I can
already picture the kids,
1091
00:38:13,567 --> 00:38:14,700
when they're getting older,
1092
00:38:14,700 --> 00:38:16,066
-they're sitting
at the breakfast bar here.
-Yes.
1093
00:38:16,066 --> 00:38:17,700
-Bill we're gonna line up
the little kids there.
-Yeah.
1094
00:38:17,767 --> 00:38:19,367
Oh, we need to have more kids.
There's more seats.
1095
00:38:19,367 --> 00:38:21,000
[laughs] Yeah.
1096
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,967
-Uh, well, looking
at this kitchen, I'm saying.
-Look at... look at the desk.
1097
00:38:23,967 --> 00:38:25,266
-[Drew] Mmm-hmm.
-[Emillie] Ah, gorgeous.
1098
00:38:25,266 --> 00:38:27,200
[Bill] And this is
a perfect spot for it.
We can...
1099
00:38:27,266 --> 00:38:29,367
-[Emillie] Oh, Bill,
look at our photo!
-[Bill] Oh my gosh.
1100
00:38:29,367 --> 00:38:30,767
That is baby Ben.
1101
00:38:30,767 --> 00:38:32,767
-It's baby Ben.
-He was only five days old
1102
00:38:33,300 --> 00:38:34,200
when we took this.
1103
00:38:34,266 --> 00:38:35,600
That's a tribute to Sophie
1104
00:38:35,667 --> 00:38:37,767
because we didn't have
a five day old picture of her.
1105
00:38:37,767 --> 00:38:39,667
They look identical,
so this could be either one.
1106
00:38:39,667 --> 00:38:39,804
[laughs] To be honest.
1107
00:38:39,804 --> 00:38:40,000
[laughs] To be honest.
1108
00:38:41,166 --> 00:38:42,700
This floor is gorgeous.
1109
00:38:42,767 --> 00:38:44,100
[Jonathan] Oh yeah,
this floors...
And you know what,
1110
00:38:44,166 --> 00:38:45,433
they're meant to take
a bit of a beating.
1111
00:38:45,433 --> 00:38:47,166
-Okay.
-I mean, the kids
can come running through here.
1112
00:38:47,166 --> 00:38:48,967
-I just love that it's light.
-[Bill] Mmm-hmm.
1113
00:38:48,967 --> 00:38:51,367
-[Jonathan] So it's not gonna
show all the dirt either.
-Yeah.
1114
00:38:51,367 --> 00:38:52,634
When you're standing here,
1115
00:38:52,634 --> 00:38:54,300
-look at your view,
look at the living room.
-[Bill] Oh.
1116
00:38:54,300 --> 00:38:55,967
-[Jonathan] Doesn't it feel
like a whole different house?
-[Bill] Absolutely.
1117
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:57,667
-[Emillie] It is
a whole different house.
-[Bill] It's crazy, I mean,
1118
00:38:57,667 --> 00:38:59,367
I'm just saying, I knew
it was gonna be
a big transformation.
1119
00:38:59,367 --> 00:39:01,467
But I really
cannot believe it.
1120
00:39:01,467 --> 00:39:04,100
Keep in mind,
we didn't actually
raise the ceiling.
1121
00:39:04,166 --> 00:39:05,600
-But by cleaning it up,
-[Bill] Mmm-hmm.
1122
00:39:05,667 --> 00:39:08,000
-it looks a heck
of a lot better.
-It feels taller.
1123
00:39:08,066 --> 00:39:09,800
-[Drew] Why don't we get
into your living space?
-[Bill] Oh, sure.
1124
00:39:09,867 --> 00:39:10,000
[Emillie] This is
a huge couch.
1125
00:39:11,467 --> 00:39:13,500
What is this like,
a 16 person sofa?
1126
00:39:13,567 --> 00:39:14,667
Yep, minimum.
1127
00:39:14,667 --> 00:39:15,867
[Jonathan] Suited for how
1128
00:39:15,867 --> 00:39:17,300
-you're gonna grow
in this house.
-[Emillie] Yeah.
1129
00:39:17,300 --> 00:39:19,000
[Jonathan] The kids
need space. They're gonna
have friends over.
1130
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,166
[Emillie] Yeah, I feel like
Bill and I
1131
00:39:20,166 --> 00:39:21,200
were thinking of, like,
1132
00:39:21,266 --> 00:39:22,467
right now what we wanted
1133
00:39:22,467 --> 00:39:24,200
and you guys
were thinking, like,
1134
00:39:24,266 --> 00:39:25,467
ten years down the road
what do we need.
1135
00:39:25,467 --> 00:39:26,700
So I appreciate
that forethought
1136
00:39:26,767 --> 00:39:28,000
'cause now we don't
have to have it.
1137
00:39:28,066 --> 00:39:29,300
Oh my gosh,
look at the extra seating
1138
00:39:29,367 --> 00:39:31,066
and the storage over here.
1139
00:39:31,066 --> 00:39:32,000
-[Emillie] Oh,
that is so cute.
-[Bill] Oh my gosh,
1140
00:39:32,066 --> 00:39:33,300
it's gorgeous.
1141
00:39:33,300 --> 00:39:34,667
-[Jonathan] Very functional
for kids.
-[Bill] Yeah.
1142
00:39:34,667 --> 00:39:36,700
-You know you wanna. Do it.
-Can you sit down?
Please sit down.
1143
00:39:36,767 --> 00:39:38,000
[Drew] It just got even cuter.
1144
00:39:38,066 --> 00:39:39,367
-[Jonathan] Come on.
Get in there.
-Aww, Bill.
1145
00:39:39,367 --> 00:39:39,804
Come here.
1146
00:39:39,804 --> 00:39:40,000
Come here.
1147
00:39:40,767 --> 00:39:43,000
-Oh, and there's a slider.
-Ah, there is...
1148
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:44,066
This is how you lock it.
1149
00:39:44,066 --> 00:39:45,700
That locks it.
1150
00:39:45,700 --> 00:39:46,967
-And then when you pull it
out here, then you can open.
-[Bill] Oh, very good.
1151
00:39:46,967 --> 00:39:50,367
-Oh my God,
this is so, like, useful.
-[Bill] Wow.
1152
00:39:50,367 --> 00:39:51,867
[Jonathan] And all
the new windows,
1153
00:39:51,867 --> 00:39:53,967
will make this room
really energy efficient.
1154
00:39:53,967 --> 00:39:56,500
Why don't we pop in
to your dining
and fireplace area?
1155
00:39:56,567 --> 00:39:59,166
-[Emillie] Oh my gosh.
-What do you think?
1156
00:39:59,166 --> 00:40:01,166
-[Bill] Gosh,
-[Emillie] Look at
that fireplace.
1157
00:40:01,166 --> 00:40:02,667
Oh my God.
1158
00:40:02,667 --> 00:40:05,166
Oh my gosh, the fireplace
looks beautiful, doesn't it?
1159
00:40:05,166 --> 00:40:07,066
-[Emillie] Fireplace
is gorgeous.
-[Bill] Oh my gosh.
1160
00:40:07,066 --> 00:40:08,834
[Emillie] Absolutely gorgeous.
1161
00:40:08,834 --> 00:40:09,804
[Jonathan] You think
this is better than the brick
that was here before?
1162
00:40:09,804 --> 00:40:10,000
[Jonathan] You think
this is better than the brick
that was here before?
1163
00:40:10,767 --> 00:40:11,867
[Emillie] Yeah, a little bit.
1164
00:40:11,867 --> 00:40:13,000
[Bill] They turned it
a little bit,
1165
00:40:13,066 --> 00:40:14,667
but it still feels
so compact, doesn't it?
1166
00:40:14,667 --> 00:40:16,166
-But it's like,
a statement piece.
-Mmm-hmm. Yeah.
1167
00:40:16,166 --> 00:40:18,967
Oh my gosh,
this is so gorgeous.
1168
00:40:18,967 --> 00:40:20,867
[Jonathan] And you guys
didn't want
a formal dining room,
1169
00:40:20,867 --> 00:40:22,867
you asked for
a great banquette.
1170
00:40:22,867 --> 00:40:25,066
Did you anticipate
this much entertaining space?
1171
00:40:25,066 --> 00:40:27,166
-Dining space?
-[Emillie] No.
Look, we all fit.
1172
00:40:27,166 --> 00:40:28,600
-I mean, more than us.
-[Bill laughs] Yeah.
1173
00:40:28,667 --> 00:40:31,000
-[Jonathan] You can get
more friends over here.
-[Bill laughs] Yeah.
1174
00:40:31,066 --> 00:40:32,967
-[Emillie] And this is
so fancy.
-[Bill] Yeah, the wall color
1175
00:40:32,967 --> 00:40:34,166
has a little texture.
1176
00:40:34,166 --> 00:40:35,100
[Jonathan] Grasscloth.
1177
00:40:35,166 --> 00:40:36,600
[Emillie and Bill] Wow.
1178
00:40:36,667 --> 00:40:38,000
[Emillie] There's something
about a round tables.
1179
00:40:38,066 --> 00:40:39,367
-Isn't there?
-[Drew] It's sexy.
1180
00:40:39,367 --> 00:40:39,804
-[Emillie] Yeah.
-They're great
for game nights.
1181
00:40:39,804 --> 00:40:40,000
-[Emillie] Yeah.
-They're great
for game nights.
1182
00:40:41,266 --> 00:40:43,567
Oh my God.
Game nights and anything else.
1183
00:40:43,567 --> 00:40:45,000
And again, tons of storage.
1184
00:40:45,066 --> 00:40:47,100
-You're sitting on top
of the counter storage.
-Actually, yeah,
1185
00:40:47,100 --> 00:40:48,433
-if you stand up for one sec.
-[Emillie] No way.
1186
00:40:48,433 --> 00:40:49,767
-[Bill] Oh my gosh.
-[Emillie] Storage
is my love language.
1187
00:40:49,767 --> 00:40:51,667
-And this is...
this is happening.
-[all laugh]
1188
00:40:51,667 --> 00:40:53,367
This is so crazy.
1189
00:40:53,367 --> 00:40:56,066
Now, this footprint
feels right.
1190
00:40:56,066 --> 00:40:59,000
Before you had so many zones
that were under-utilized,
1191
00:40:59,066 --> 00:41:00,900
and they kind of felt
like an afterthought.
1192
00:41:00,967 --> 00:41:03,900
I can picture you using
every square inch now.
1193
00:41:03,967 --> 00:41:05,166
[Emillie] At the
same time even, right?
1194
00:41:05,166 --> 00:41:07,000
Like, I'm over here,
the kids are over there,
1195
00:41:07,066 --> 00:41:08,867
it's no big deal.
Bill's in the kitchen,
1196
00:41:08,867 --> 00:41:09,804
-like, we're all together.
-Yeah.
1197
00:41:09,804 --> 00:41:10,000
-like, we're all together.
-Yeah.
1198
00:41:10,467 --> 00:41:11,767
How is Sophie doing?
1199
00:41:11,767 --> 00:41:13,900
-Sophie's amazing.
-Yes, she's doing
absolutely great.
1200
00:41:13,967 --> 00:41:16,066
We don't even remember
a time before her now.
1201
00:41:16,066 --> 00:41:17,567
-[laughs]
-Can we meet her.
1202
00:41:17,567 --> 00:41:19,767
-I would love
for you guys to meet her.
-[Drew] And Ben.
1203
00:41:19,767 --> 00:41:21,400
-And Ben, yeah.
-[Drew] Bring the family over,
1204
00:41:21,467 --> 00:41:22,467
let's have some fun.
1205
00:41:22,467 --> 00:41:23,600
[Emillie] Let's do it.
[chuckles]
1206
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:26,467
To be in that space
1207
00:41:26,467 --> 00:41:28,900
compared to the...
the way the house was before,
1208
00:41:28,967 --> 00:41:31,567
it's just, I mean,
It's hard to describe the...
1209
00:41:31,567 --> 00:41:32,700
the transformation.
1210
00:41:32,767 --> 00:41:35,000
It's amazing
what they were
able to accomplish
1211
00:41:35,066 --> 00:41:37,600
while keeping, like,
the same...
1212
00:41:37,667 --> 00:41:39,266
Well, it's not a layout.
'Cause they changed
the layout.
1213
00:41:39,266 --> 00:41:39,804
But I mean, like,
yep, the same walls,
1214
00:41:39,804 --> 00:41:40,000
But I mean, like,
yep, the same walls,
1215
00:41:40,767 --> 00:41:42,967
but it looks different.
Well, except the walls
that they got rid of.
1216
00:41:42,967 --> 00:41:44,567
Okay, never mind
it's totally different
1217
00:41:44,567 --> 00:41:46,400
-and it's amazing.
-Yeah.
1218
00:41:46,467 --> 00:41:48,467
[woman] Could you imagine
a front door?
1219
00:41:48,467 --> 00:41:50,000
[Jonathan and Drew]
Welcome home, everybody.
1220
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,266
-Oh wow.
-Oh my goodness.
1221
00:41:53,266 --> 00:41:55,900
-Oh, this is so different.
-Oh, nice.
1222
00:41:55,967 --> 00:41:58,166
[Jonathan] Sophie,
are you smiling
or frowning?
1223
00:41:58,166 --> 00:41:59,367
[Bill laughs]
1224
00:41:59,367 --> 00:42:01,467
-This is incredible.
-I know.
1225
00:42:01,467 --> 00:42:02,800
[Drew] Thank you. Thank you.
1226
00:42:02,867 --> 00:42:04,367
[Emillie] It was probably
harder for Bill,
1227
00:42:04,367 --> 00:42:06,166
me being pregnant
during this process,
1228
00:42:06,166 --> 00:42:08,500
because we had no control,
we had no anything.
1229
00:42:08,567 --> 00:42:09,804
And instead, I just, like,
1230
00:42:09,804 --> 00:42:10,000
And instead, I just, like,
1231
00:42:10,266 --> 00:42:11,767
Bill, what are we doing?
Why isn't it done?
1232
00:42:11,767 --> 00:42:13,100
-When are we gonna get inside?
-[Bill laughs]
1233
00:42:13,166 --> 00:42:16,100
-But now, It's all
been worth it, I guess.
-Yeah, absolutely.
1234
00:42:16,166 --> 00:42:18,266
And it's been amazing
to have Jonathan
and Drew do it
1235
00:42:18,266 --> 00:42:20,667
because I was able
to focus on our pregnancy
1236
00:42:20,667 --> 00:42:22,166
and our birth
and having the baby.
1237
00:42:22,166 --> 00:42:24,300
This is a little something
for you guys
1238
00:42:24,367 --> 00:42:25,266
-from us as well.
-[woman] Oh!
1239
00:42:25,266 --> 00:42:27,300
-Oh my God.
-So these are a...
1240
00:42:27,367 --> 00:42:30,300
a whole bunch of
the educational baby toys
1241
00:42:30,367 --> 00:42:32,300
-that Linda and I had
for Parker.
-[Emillie] Oh!
1242
00:42:32,367 --> 00:42:34,166
-Oh my goodness.
-Oh look at how cute
1243
00:42:34,166 --> 00:42:36,100
the little stacking cups.
1244
00:42:36,100 --> 00:42:38,166
[Jonathan] I just wanna say
you guys were an absolute joy
1245
00:42:38,166 --> 00:42:39,100
-to work with.
-[Bill] Oh my gosh.
1246
00:42:39,100 --> 00:42:39,804
That from the second
we met you,
1247
00:42:39,804 --> 00:42:40,000
That from the second
we met you,
1248
00:42:41,100 --> 00:42:43,667
we can see the energy,
we can see how much
you love each other.
1249
00:42:43,667 --> 00:42:45,200
And we wanted you
to love your house
1250
00:42:45,266 --> 00:42:46,400
-just as much.
-Oh my gosh, yeah.
1251
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:47,867
-[Emillie] We do.
-Cheers to you
and the family.
1252
00:42:47,867 --> 00:42:49,367
-Oh my gosh.
-Cheers. Thank you.
1253
00:42:49,367 --> 00:42:50,734
[all] Cheers.
1254
00:42:50,734 --> 00:42:52,767
This will be the first party
of, I'm sure,
many more to come.
1255
00:42:52,767 --> 00:42:53,900
-Grab a cupcake, you guys.
-[woman] Ooh!
1256
00:42:53,967 --> 00:42:55,567
[indistinct chatter]
1257
00:42:55,567 --> 00:42:57,500
You're so cute.
You're so cute.
