@@JaysPHJourney Craig Lowe the painter - died in a diving accident off Nova Scotia, in 2014. Dang shame, he was so talented as a painter contractor on that show.
Mike always does his best to support women in the trades. I've seen an older master stone worker delighted to have a young female apprentice, because she worked hard and learned. Also, and this is important, he couldn't find a MALE apprentice willing to do the work.
@@SandraNelson063Plenty of people are not willing to listen. If you have switched off and no listening, you are no learning. In everything you do, keep learning.
All I can say is wow, your team is just simply amazing. My brother calls himself a builder/renovator. And he is one of these cowboys that dose short cuts
It's so strange watching these older shows that they aren't using blue wood or drywall. And seeing how young they were when they started working with Mike. 😊❤
@@robsp32 Even the original SD was cleaner that this. In fact this looks exactly like the pirated copies from 8 years ago that were floating around on YT.
That person got a free 165K, minus about five thousand for the garbage job that was done. Congratulations Corin, I don't think that there is a better teacher out there. My hats off to all those contractors that make it better for everyone.
What a relief for that family to get to live in a decent home finally. The wife has a cute sense of humour with her remark about how their bathroom was incentive to stay skinny. What a mess, though, that Mike and his team cleaned up. I have a lot of respect for people in the construction trades who do excellent work. I wish the incompetent ones would either upgrade their knowledge and skills or go dig ditches (under close supervision), instead of leaving people broke and with a disaster on their hands.
I have always loved watching all of the Mike Holmes shows. It sucks I can no longer watch it on TV, and don't know if any NEW episodes with Mike Holmes, or his kids, are doing.
WHAT A VIDEO!! THE WORK THAT WAS DONE WAS UNBELIEVABLE IT'S HORRIBLE TO THINK THAT BUILDER WORKING ON ANOTHER HOUSE MAKING A FAMILIES LIFE A MISERY JOB VERY WELL DONE!!
Timber is the strengthen of any structure. We bought an old house and had to renew all the structural timber due to woodworm. Adding extra cross beams as we went. From the cellar to the attic. It is that which one does not see that is the most important part of any home. Lived in it now for 48 years. Foundations, good, new roof, it is a huge roof. Invest and it becomes a safe home that will last the test of time. 👍
Awww RIP Giuseppe one last job done brilliantly. Congrats Holmes wish you were in Australia as I seriously need shite fixed but two scared to engage anybody to do it. @homefultv
I lived in a DR Horton house in the Austin area in high school, and I wasn’t a fan either. Granted, that was many years ago, but we and our neighbors had a lot of issues too
I watched this show some years back and really enjoyed it. You learn soooo much from these videos. Question, what happens to the contractor who really did more harm then good ??? Mike, thanks for all you do. BARBARA
Mi ke u should name and shame these i nearly said builders. Conmen. They dont deserve to get any work .love the work u and ur team do top class. Junior ireland love the show❤❤❤
Passed by the inspectors? Tell me another one. Edit: Keeping costs down. Really? How old is this episode? for $170K, that should buy a complete gut and renovation. They weren't keeping costs down. They were just robbing the customers. IMO, the inspectors that passed any of this should not just lose their license, but be criminally prosecuted.
I notice that they don't harp on things being passed later in the episode. I'm guessing they didn't have time just because so much happened in this episode, but I doubt any of it was actually passed.
In Australia, the inspection reports dont matter so much. The Certificate of Occupancy matters, it says rhat yes, someone is able to live in that space we call a home. Usually produced by the local council. Required for hand over from builder/contractor to owner and when the place is sold on. Is it perfect system? No, we have some rogue operators that get away with dodgy stuff. But it does mean that the home owner doesn't need to keep track of the permits and go ahesds themselves.
How is it possible that it is still not right, you have obtained all the permits, everything is inspected and still nothing is right, who is going to hold all this up to the contractor and I think that the person who approved everything is certainly also liable......... If it were not for this program, another family would be in great trouble with an unliveable house.....
- Well, I am not any kind of professional, so take what I say with a grain of salt but I think that the Permits are completely separate from the work done in the sense that the Permits are like you go to the legal land offices for the city/Government regulations, and apply to get something done, they see all the drawings plans etc and then inspect to see if it can be done safely legally and according to zoning that sort of thing. Once you get their approval you have permits, like having a hunting license it means you have permission to do the thing you got the permit for, and can begin doing the work. That part was done, and they achieved all their permits. The Problem here is that the contractor who was hired to do the work, did not do anything correctly, took advantage of the homeowners not having technical knowledge and so by doing fast cheap incorrect work and painting over everything trying to make it look like it was done well or correctly or whatever, to fool them into paying a lot of money and not actually getting what they paid for. And clearly the guy was pretty bad at things because even someone with some moderate skill could have covered things up better this guys poor work was so obvious, most times ( if you aren't Mike Holmes ) you have to open up a wall or something before you can actually notice the scam. So, as far as I can see the people who issued Permits were not doing anything wrong, they looked over the plans and the property and found the proposed project acceptable and said "No problem, you are good to go" ; but that was the end of the Permit aspect, so they are not really responsible for anything afterwards. Now, any inspections being one on work after the fact definitely should have caught that the work was badly done and not up to code, so either the inspections never occurred and the contractor only said they were, or perhaps someone got paid off to look the other way, because sad as it is, it doesn't matter how high up on the chain you go there will always be people who will lie if they get offered enough money, so I'm not sure which happened but my money is that there were never any inspections, and the contractor just said they were done. Anyways, that's my thought, but I am not a professional, and I wasn't there so ... maybe I am right maybe not, who knows, lol.
Yo Mike! You should have your own legal team that takes on and shases guys like the previous contractor. People that do shitty work like that should pay and never be able to get a building job again. I know how much money I been putting in to my own house pluss all the hours I spend doing the job according to the norm. Not everybody have a Mike Holmes and this kind of behavior could and will bankrupt people and families. Great job!
- They should handle most paid for services the way you do it at a nice restaurant; You pay after you have received the service or product you ordered, I have NO IDEA why this is not a standard practice. I mean come on, I don't get paid for doing my job ahead of time, I have to actually do the work correctly, then I get paid, and if I did a sh!tty job, I'd be made to do it over again for free, or get let go. Should be like this for every financial transaction.
First time watching this show. Wishing now that there was a show that not only fixed bad contactor work but includes a team of lawyers that can sue the living sh!t out of those bad contractors for every penny required to fix their bad work. Some of the shows could also feature contractors that do great work.
Probably should ask the city for a reinspection before they start on the redo. And get the name of the first inspector to make sure he doesn't do the reinspection.
I really "get" your complaint about metal in trees or in my case, boards. I'm a member of a local community workshop. We use old wooden pallets to make low cost items for the community. Nails in the boards make such a mess of the saws! Grrrr!
How can I know for sure that if a tree service says they are actually “quality” that they truly are. We live in Patterson,NC and took an awful hit from Helene. We have 20 acres and our property is covered with downed trees. My husband who is almost 74 years old, grandsons and any other help we can get are doing their best to clean it up but I think we need professional help. Where do we look?
Some contractors are not skilled trades the word skilled comes from experienced and experienced comes from many years learning to be a skilled professional contractor anyone can get a license
People who do their own home repairs, sometimes think, they are better than they are, then go into business, not really knowing all the fine details. Years ago people, did not have all these codes, plus they are also selling their products. Contractors are in the business of making money, so they cut corners, often corners that, they shouldn’t. They juggle, money off of one job, to do the next, sometimes end up short.
@MarilynShealy l framed custom homes for 20 years and now at 58 decided custom decks porches and fences are pretty good exercise, so it's not really about the money as l get older it's about the body ,but l agree some cut corners and they should be delt with accordingly. Mike Holmes used to do a show investigating corruption contractors clients need to stop hiring internet based contractors Angie and the rest need to go
In some ways the contractors are responsible for quality work but inspection of that work should be looked over but only by experienced builder inspectors not some city or state inspectors
Go through all the trouble and expense of getting permits and they send out inspectors that don't know what they're doing,solution would obviously be screw permits and regulations from city and state and thier fines and hire experienced contractors that are like Mike
Okay, so from the legal side, what happened to the contractor who did all this work? And to the inspectors who passed the work? Going through some kind of same similar situation with the garage, obviously not as expensive as their house, but legally, where do I go from here?
What a lame cover-up -- how this whole scenario ended up for the family. Glad they could get Mr. Holmes and his troop in there to re-do it all correctly. They did a wonderful job! Looks so much better!
If you are in business you are going to have someone sue you over something at some point. Just the nature of doing business. Some people have a legitimate grievance, others are just cranks who would complain about anything. The fact a case was filed does not actually matter
😂😂 the bathroom ive never laughed much on theese videos cause its heartbreaking as a 30 year carpenter i just dont see how people can take advantage of them and do shit work the bathroom nust made me laugh so hard
I wish there were honest contractors and builders in my area. Every one of them just looks at the customer like an ATM machine and they deliver crappy work.
They think they know what they are doing, when they really do not, they get into situations, they cannot handle and walk away, after making causing more damage.
If it can be proven that the first contractor really ripped them off did not do his job properly he should have his license pulled. And he should payback this couple. And if you can't then they need to put a lien against his house for what he did to them.
That mess is sitting atop criminal. How much money was exchanged to create this holocaust of a home. Their child still being alive much less themselves is a sheer miracle.
They did all the work right in a month and if they hadn't had to tear out all the bad work it would have been like half that. It's just ridiculous what the original contractor did. Could have done it right in less time than it took to do it wrong.
Glory!! After so much struggles I now own a new house with an influx of $75K every month God has kept to his words, my family is happy again everything is finally falling into place. God bless America.🇺🇸
It's crazy how people can get 170K into a project not realizing how they're getting screwed..I wonder if anything happened to the A- hole that ripped them off
I just want a video that goes through the episodes and tells us what happened to some of the crappy contractors and their companies when all this is aired. They cant really tell you the names of the companies because they would probably get sued but at least being able to hear if that place went under or got sued themselves for poor workmanship would be nice to know. Ive worked with some in the past who did things poorly on my house but at least those ended with them giving some money back and being flagged for their crappy work. Companies need remember even if they do not have a website there are still ways to place comments so people get a real idea of how poorly they do their jobs. Plus i think a lot of inspectors are lazy idiots these days who need to check more then a wall or two and check the whole house not just do one side and figure its the same everywhere.
I havent seen this guy in a long time .. i feel so bad for home owners cause obviously the check fail sysytem is corrupt.. n hipe justice comea to these ppl who apporved this nonsensical bs... there needs to be more of a check balance w photos or video something
So I'm taking it these people didn't have an inspector come in before they bought it I know here in the state of New Hampshire you have to have a license inspector come through your whole house to buy it I don't know if that's how it is in every state but it should be unless they gotta a shady inspector which there is some I know people that pay inspectors off
R.i.p to the best contractor, to the family and friends sorry for your loss , showing love all the way from a small valley in Connecticut

Sometimes Mike helps go after them to recover some of the funds used in helping the people that got screwed.
What I am curious about is whether or not the builder us held accountable. Are they reported somewhere or do they just walk and mess up another house?
Occasionally Mike is able to go to court and speak as a knowledgeable expert for people trying to sue a contractor.

Is there any recourse against incompetent or fraudulent contractors because lawsuits are seldom enough to remove and replace everything correctly.

They think they know what they are doing, when they really do not, they get into situations, they cannot handle and walk away, after making causing more damage.
The contractor and the inspector(s) need to attend classes on how to do their jobs. These owners trusted them and were ripped off.
would have thought you would use a snipe now and again
If it can be proven that the first contractor really ripped them off did not do his job properly he should have his license pulled.
And he should payback this couple.
And if you can't then they need to put a lien against his house for what he did to them.
The thing is, they file for bankruptcy, then they start another business under a different name and continue with ripping people off.

This was such a big job it could have eas6been three hours long.
HGTV needs to be worried
They needed a project manager to oversee the work. The contract may have known the inspector. They should have hired someone out of the town.
That mess is sitting atop criminal. How much money was exchanged to create this holocaust of a home. Their child still being alive much less themselves is a sheer miracle.

also why wouldn`t you put a railing on back stairs outside so no people can trip and fall down there?
How come they don't name the contractors or inspectors?
What was done about the dishonest contractor?
Sometimes licensed contractors doesn't mean they know what they're doing

But how do you earn that much monthly? I'm genuinely curious
Big thanks to Kathleen Mary Vella
She's a licensed broker here in the states 🇺🇸
Her top notch guidance and expertise on digital market changed the game for me
If it wasn’t for Mike and his crew, where would this family be?
Can they sue the guy?
But can you sue an inspector?
why not publish and say the guys name on the video to public ally shame him. hence preventing future rip offs.
I’d also tell the homeowner sue the hell out of the first contractor because everything he did would’ve never passed for the work he did was garbage
with no consequences from contractors it will just keep happening. Been happening since the beginning and will continue.
It's crazy how people can get 170K into a project not realizing how they're getting screwed..I wonder if anything happened to the A- hole that ripped them off

Plus i think a lot of inspectors are lazy idiots these days who need to check more then a wall or two and check the whole house not just do one side and figure its the same everywhere.
So who's paying for all these corrections and redos, work hours, materials after the owners already paid $171,000 for the addition?
How does this man financially back his work? I do imagine he gets a lot of other jobs because of his reputation from the shows.
Probably would have been cheaper to tear it down and rebuild!!!
I havent seen this guy in a long time .. i feel so bad for home owners cause obviously the check fail sysytem is corrupt.. n hipe justice comea to these ppl who apporved this nonsensical bs... there needs to be more of a check balance w photos or video something
I'm afraid to buy a house. It costs too much to build one properly.
So I'm taking it these people didn't have an inspector come in before they bought it I know here in the state of New Hampshire you have to have a license inspector come through your whole house to buy it I don't know if that's how it is in every state but it should be unless they gotta a shady inspector which there is some I know people that pay inspectors off
