The Convertible Kitchen
Josh's house of disconnected cabinets, poorly-patched holes and terrifying electrical work gives the unwreckers lots to do and little time to do it.

Episode 10

Episode 12
Wall of Shame

When Vitoria had a baby, her stepdad Joe decided he'd buy her a house and fix it up himself. But Joe's fix-up skills are not really skills at all.
Episode 14
The Turtle Room
Don wanted a fresh-looking kitchen, so he took all the doors off the cupboards (good start), sanded them (this is getting exciting) and then put some finish on them and voilà: they look terrible.
