Disaster DIY

Danielle is accusing her jail guard father Andrew of attempted renovation! The crime? One bathroom shared among seven grown adults. Bryan has arrived to get this arrested renovation going for good and Andrew has no escape!

Zeb's experience in building props has not helped him at all in renovating his basement. Though the props look great, they are not meant to be long-lasting.

Carlos may be an expert hair dresser in the salon, but he's definitely not on the cutting edge of home renovations. His wife Lori may have her own personal hairstylist, but she would trade it all for a personal contractor who could create a functioning kitchen.

Perfectionist Michael has lost his way. Instead of focusing on one project at a time, he moves on to others without finishing any. His wife Marci has had enough and called in the big guns - Bryan.

Chris's renovation looks more like a crime scene, rather than a bathroom. His wife Lori's patience with the unfinished reno has gone down the proverbial toilet (she doesn't have a real one yet).

Maya has to learn her love of interior design means only changing what's on the outside of the walls, rather than what lurks behind them. Her big sister Rebecca panicked when she found the walls and ceiling on the floor.

Robyn's overseas vacation to his family cottage is about to come to an abrupt halt. He and his brother Robert helped renovate the kitchen years ago and threw it together with little thought, knowledge and especially logic!

Rob's hired helper Sam is anything but helpful! Even with the motivation of having his own space at the cottage hasn't inspired Sam to convert a tool shed filled with junk into his own private space.

Pierre's laid back nature is rubbing off on his attitude towards completing his disastrous deck. With a number of tiny toddlers running around the property, and a rotting deck with no safety railing, going to the cottage has proved more safety hazard, instead of relaxed vacation.

Ellen and Alan live full time at their cottage and play host to bumbling grandchildren throughout the year. With a tool shed that's on the verge of collapse, Ellen thinks it's the perfect time to convert the terrible tool shed into a bubbly bunkie.

Marn's dream second-storey deck is a real second-storey death trap! Her well-intentioned husband Gord has been promising a deck with a view for years, but right now the kitchen walk-out is more of a kitchen fall-out--onto the ground 20 feet below.

Jennifer and Dave live at their cottage full-time and Jennifer is tired of her house looking like an eye sore and not a home. Not only does Dave have his wife nagging him of the work that needs to be done, but also an outspoken father-in-law named Bill.

A little knowledge doesn't always go a long way! Despite being under the wing of a well-known contractor, poor 'Steve' attempted to impress his future mother-in-law by building a complicated deck and stairs with only the building know-how of a novice.
