    It looks very good especially the kitchen and front door entrance.
    Painting the paneling was a good choice to update the living room, on a budget .
    What a huge mistake to close up that amazing architectural open ceiling !!!
    I’m so bummed about that. It took something special & made it bland.
    I would have preferred if they just painted the paneling and let the open height stay .
    Doing the same floors throughout the main level was a plus .
    That was also unnecessary work & money to change the outside brick color and shorten the outside balconies.
    Just some new paint on the iron work & plants on the balconies would have been fine.
    Then the budget could have been extended to the whole home .

      it would be cold in the winter and you know how much heat you would need to warm that up?
      plus because they closed it off they made an extra room upstairs.
      the nice thing about that room in my opinion is the shape not the open ceiling.

      The renovation reveal started out great but quickly faded when they got to the kitchen. It looked/felt like a cave, and then to close in the turret was no only unnecessary but added to the cave feeling. Folks, don't leave every decision in your contractor's hands!

    i dont understand: 2 dining rooms? they took out that gorgeous high ceiling to bring in low ceiling with an exuberant chandelier that is way too low?

    Who else watches these shows and goes away inspired and sad? Heartsick not for what you don't have, but rather what you will NEVER have. (Not picking on this show) at all, but it used to be that DIY shows were about affordable fixups. Now, all we see are mac-mansions that will suffocate you in debt. Losing a beautiful home to the bank after the renovation cost crushes you is worse than COVID because it destroys marriages, families, hopes, and dreams. Don't get me wrong, I love all these shows but rarely watch them anymore.

    Viewed this video because the show hosts/contractors are being sued by these homeowners.

The homeowners allege that the couple did not obtain necessary building permits along with a few other issues.

    I think these "crooks" decided to file a suit after reading the comments about the second floor. The way it was set up it was inconvenient and dangerous. I remember this episode. Now this couple claims emotional distress and want at min. $75K. I also see they were on another HGTV show. What amazes me is that most likely those who have claimed how sad it was to place a second floor, would have done the exact same thing in order to gain the square footage. Added value and yes, safety.

      There's a ton of stuff that was not allowed to be said about was done to destroy portions of this home during this "renovation".... and there's a major reason that you never got to see the "new space" created by the new low ceiling. That kitchen was not even functional when this video was taken. Dana couldn't even cook dinner FOR MONTHS. Do some more research... they even closed off access to a stairwell that was a primary access to the house. So don't go calling people crooks until you know all the details.
