Tony is a great guy for doing this for his best friends widow (she’s obviously become a close friend of his also) and her family. It must have cost him a fortune with the light being $799 on its own. But I like that rather than saying “do anything” or “let’s make it traditionally modern/minimalist”, he really took into account what she would like! A really generous man.
Tony Hawk is my son's hero. He's the reason my Tony got into skateboarding. Now he's 27 and he still loves it. When he's angry, worried, down in the dumps - he hops on the board and everythings fine. It keeps his mind healthy and I'm so grateful to Tony Hawk for being such an inspiration to many and he continues to be that. Such a wonderful thing to do and a fab makeover. Loved the designer "geeking out". Loved Tony giving him the board too. Nice one.
houzz has it right, marrying 3 great things many of us love; Genuinely awesome celebs, family, and home renos. These episodes are so good! Keep them coming!
I’m a grown man..49 this year.. former skater.. huge Hawk fan... I still throw an Ollie from time to time ... and I’m weeping over this.. two of my buddies have run into Tony, and say how much of a great guy he was at that moment. Long live the bones brigade!!!
It had to be tough for him trying to balance his brother's legacy and embrace his brother's wife's new husband in the remodeling and he truly did a fabulous job with regarding both men in the process.
I have two sons with brain cancer. They continue to fight for their lives. They both have young families and one of my sons also has a wife fighting cancer. Thank you for doing this for your friend's family. You are a very good man.
Ahhhh great episode!! Love 💕 when he hands the skateboard to the interior designer and the guy instantly turns 12 ... Tony Is very kind, loyal and generous
This is exactly the lesson for folks with large amounts of money that can change people's lives. The power of change comes with a loving heart, Tony Hawk just showed how compassion and integrity is still alive. I loved Ray as well, one of my favorites, so glad Tony held up his promise to take care of his wife and kids, pure brotherhood.
One of the few episodes where they do a renovation that feels true to the people who live there. What a lovely result and what lovely family. Tony Hawk is a treasure.
I grew up admiring Tony Hawk,he truly is am awesome person. And Ray Underhill is a lucky person to have known him. I hope Ray is looking down and feeling happy, what Tonys done for his family!
We think PBC and Dave Spetrino and company are the best! When we were deciding on a builder he brought a wealth of information to the decision. This is an impressive episode. congratulations to PBC for such a good job.
The bond between Tony & Kristy is so beautiful and sweet and genuine!! I think I am definitely crushing on Tony Hawk just q little more now because of him in this episode. He was so charming, sweet, thoughtful& did i mention his smile? Awww 😍😍😍🖤💙💚 What a good episode. Love this family!
Ray Underhill was awesome and is a total legend. I keep his memory alive from reciting his lines from Animal Chin, Those that know , know!!!!! Du bomp du blink! hahahah . Tony is my hero , has been since 1986. I don't watch these shows but jeez , this is awesome. This gets you in the feels! Thank you.
Beautiful renovation that truly meshes new updates and functionality with the family's combined sentimental pieces. I sobbed every time Tony kissed Kerry's head. Feel like Ray could feel his love for the family in Heaven.
Wow Tony and the designers did total justice with this reno. This family is kind and humble, i want them to thrive here. One of my favorite episodes, thanks houzz!!
DAMN! My idol as a teenager when I was skateboarding. Tony you may never read this but you are an inspiration, a mentor and a selfless soul. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Dude.... all of the people saying how great Tony is.... I will just pile on. I've been a fan of his since the 80s... I don't know anything about skating, but a lot of my friends idolized him, so I've always "enjoyed" all of my friends talking about what Tony Hawk is doing now... for SOOOO long. And......... he's never done a single thing that I've seen that made me think that he's anything other than the guy you see in this video. Thanks Tony. A real role model and hero!
Made me cry. Tony, I love your heart for others. I can't wait till someone taps on me to be a part of something like this. Great job to the whole team.
Omgggg... Ok i know i said a different one was my favorite.. But THIS ONE just really got me! For Tony to love his friend so much that he truly loves this family and respects the fact that.. She is human n moved on after his death and is truly accepting of the new husband is AMAZING..! This world has changed so much we dont get to see stuff like this anymore.. This show is AMAZING. I love HOUZZ. I cried n cried to this episode. It was so sweet. Ty for sharing! 😍
Tony Hawk is the best. I've been skating since 1989, and he wasn't well liked in the 90's because of his mainstream success. I'm really glad that skate culture came around to appreciate him eventually. He seems like an incredibly generous and down-to-earth guy.
Friendship goals!!! Tony & his late best friend, and then his best friend’s family... ONE FAMILY!!! Amazing friends = FAMILY!!! A true definition of friendship is family, is what I see in this episode! Tony is an amazing person & a true friend!!! ❤️
Tony Hawk means a lot to me. I remember him landing his 9 on TV. got me into skateboarding. So cool how he cares for his best friend even after he's passed.
So I definitely paused this video and just started looking at videos of Tony Hawk doing tricks....Then I got back to the video and cried like a baby because it's so sweet.
Wow. Tony Hawk is the only pro skateboarder I know. Since the 90s. I'm amazed he can still busy out the moves and his joints are still okay. Great person he is :)
Wow, I am appreciating a side of Tony Hawk that I've never seen until Houzz got involved! Love that he is totally generous to his best friend's family and looks out for them this way. The Houzz transformation couldn't have happened to a nicer family in need. Thanks Houzz!
What a true friend, an inspiration! His best friend passed away and he made sure he took care of his family. it was without a doubt the most heartfelt remodel I've seen yet, Tony's a true gentleman!

I wish I could give this 2 thumbs up. I grew up skating and have met Tony several times over the last 30 years and he is a class act through and through. I never met Ray, but watched him in competitions. It was an amazing thing for Tony to do that for their family. Hawk fan for life here! 👍
Such a gift to not only Ray's widow but continuing his legacy for his kids from their beloved Uncle Tony. From another widowed person, bless your heart, Tony Hawk.
Wow. This video stirs up so many emotions, friends, family, renovation and meeting a childhood idol. Great renovation and love how they kept the original feel and still managed to update enough for function and aesthetics. Thanks
Uncle Tony Rocks!!! Loved this sooo much!! Tears throughout! I love how Tony and Brad have obviously become really close too, which doesn’t always happen in that type of situation. And that designer/fan, just awesome!!! xxx
Thank you for this video - it's very touching. My sister just lost her husband with 2 young children and this lifted my hopes for her and her family's future.
This one made me cry! What a huge heart Tony has. This was a beautiful renovation and it's so lovely how he has kept this family so close to his heart over all the years.
Tony hawks is the epitome of a great human...OK he might of made mistakes havnt we all...but he learned from them...I saw him in the bones brigade in 88 in Swansea South Wales...my hero god bless him deserves all the credit he gets.x
i love you, tony hawk i was just a simple boy who played your videogames and loved them - but now i'm a man, and in awe of the generosity you have in your heart
Nothing beats giving we should all try it a little more, more often. Course it doesn't have to be a full remodel but any little thing helps and you can see how it put smiles on everybody's faces. This was great.
Being a Fan of Tony Hawks for so long is such a good experience, he's always up to something 😊 What a sweet family. They deserve it. Good stuff HOUZZ!!
Tony Hawk is gold. Ive watched him sign autogrpahs at Kona in the rain for hours... TWICE. The guy is the best. We couldnt have anyone better leading the way. Hawk for President.
It's nice that the house retained the old personality with a modern outlook.. It's feel like family, and you able to see it reflected on their emotion!. #2023 ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
it's one thing to reno your own place, but to give it as a gift to a friend is just another level of greatness. Tony Hawk was also one of my childhood skateboarding heroes and to see him turn out to be such a generous guy is awesome too. I remember Ray Underhill from the old magazines but didn't know about his passing. This was great to watch and very emotional -- especially when Carrie first opens her eyes to see it. What a great story. Great job Houzz.
What a gift ! The designers were very cl\ever to incorporate the owners style and possessions, and made it feel that what was new still belonged to the house.
I saw him skating in SD at park and he gave me his board before he left and signed it. It's been hanging on my wall in my room for over 10 years now
Tony is a great guy for doing this for his best friends widow (she’s obviously become a close friend of his also) and her family. It must have cost him a fortune with the light being $799 on its own.

Tony Hawk has got to be one of the most kind hearted athletes around! Loving this series : )
houzz has it right, marrying 3 great things many of us love; Genuinely awesome celebs, family, and home renos. These episodes are so good! Keep them coming!
Love how one of the designers is a fan ✨🤗
Carolin
So rad to get his board after he skated on it.
Tony Hawk is a roll model for us all. He is such a down to earth and kind-hearted person.
how cute was that when he gave him the board???? omg what a nice guy he didn't have to do that
I’m a grown man..49 this year.. former skater.. huge Hawk fan... I still throw an Ollie from time to time ... and I’m weeping over this.. two of my buddies have run into Tony, and say how much of a great guy he was at that moment. Long live the bones brigade!!!
It had to be tough for him trying to balance his brother's legacy and embrace his brother's wife's new husband in the remodeling and he truly did a fabulous job with regarding both men in the process.
He's always been a good dude! And still a badass!
If Tony Hawk is even half as kind and loving as he comes across in this video, the world is a better place with him in it.
There is something so awesomely genuine about the fact that tony hawk has had the same hair cut for 40 years
True love of friendship. When your friend become family that's true love
I have two sons with brain cancer. They continue to fight for their lives. They both have young families and one of my sons also has a wife fighting cancer. Thank you for doing this for your friend's family. You are a very good man.
Ahhhh great episode!! Love 💕 when he hands the skateboard to the interior designer and the guy instantly turns 12 ... Tony Is very kind, loyal and generous

Everyone needs a Tony in their journey of life.
Love when brands have a heartwarming story that doesn't feel forced. It made the renovation much more special.
Did anyone else cry through the whole thing? Beautiful renovation and story!
Tony and Cathy, what a beautiful demonstration of friendship!
I cried. You are beautiful person Tony Hawk. I love you!!!
How can you not love Tony Hawk, such a genuine down to earth caring person, Kerry has been through some tough times, I'm so happy for her
Man... Tony Hawk!!! That's why he's our idol... not only his talent and skills, but his heart... Thanks for sharing!
One of the few episodes where they do a renovation that feels true to the people who live there. What a lovely result and what lovely family.
Tony Hawk is a treasure.
Even if you're not a skating fan you I can't deny Tony is a very compassionate and kind hearted guy.
Heartwarming story. Beautiful space.
I grew up admiring Tony Hawk,he truly is am awesome person. And Ray Underhill is a lucky person to have known him. I hope Ray is looking down and feeling happy, what Tonys done for his family!
Can we take a moment to acknowledge what a stand up guy Tony Hawk is??? What a guy!!
This whole family needed this & totally deserve it & more. Way to go Uncle Tony.
We think PBC and Dave Spetrino and company are the best! When we were deciding on a builder he brought a wealth of information to the decision. This is an impressive episode. congratulations to PBC for such a good job.
So kind of him to keep his promise of being there for the friend's family and supporting them
The bond between Tony & Kristy is so beautiful and sweet and genuine!! I think I am definitely crushing on Tony Hawk just q little more now because of him in this episode. He was so charming, sweet, thoughtful& did i mention his smile? Awww 😍😍😍🖤💙💚 What a good episode. Love this family!

Tony Hawk has always been the living, breathing definition of a selfless human being. He's just a great human being.
DAMN! My idol as a teenager when I was skateboarding. Tony you may never read this but you are an inspiration, a mentor and a selfless soul. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Tony hawk is a legend, doesn’t care about money and material objects and never has. He’s all about people and friends and family. Legit ass dude.
Dude.... all of the people saying how great Tony is.... I will just pile on. I've been a fan of his since the 80s...

Wow. This video stirs up so many emotions, friends, family, renovation and meeting a childhood idol. Great renovation and love how they kept the original feel and still managed to update enough for function and aesthetics. Thanks
The sisters chin to head did it for me, I love when families (children specifically) feel cared for..Safe. Great job, love Tony's heart..
I wonder how much this renovation was it’s really a good one. This show should have a billion episodes.
What a beautiful friendship and what a wonderful way to honor his friend and family. I’m crying at work. Sob!
Thanks for documenting it. It's important for the skateboard community especially who grew up watching Tony and Ray skate back in the day.
That's 1 helluva guy and a even better true friend,
Uncle Tony Rocks!!! Loved this sooo much!! Tears throughout! I love how Tony and Brad have obviously become really close too, which doesn’t always happen in that type of situation.
And that designer/fan, just awesome!!! xxx
I could watch him skateboard all day. He’s just to kool and badass. He opened up a whole new sport. It takes mad skills.
Just absolutely amazing. Tony what a big heart you have.
Gorgeous renovation! Great Job on making me cry. Seriously super beautiful episode all around.
This is really heartwarming and it turned out so beautiful.
Tony is such a great guy! I love that he’s looking after his friend’s family...he’s a real friend...

Not sure why I cried when Tony and Kerry hugged... But there's def a genuine connection. Awesome sauce!
He is so sweet and loving to her. It’s really touching.
I was expecting the entire house to be turned into a skate park.
Very cool, from the giving, to the design, to making the the renovated family able to enjoy the renovated home.
Nothing beats giving we should all try it a little more, more often. Course it doesn't have to be a full remodel but any little thing helps and you can see how it put smiles on everybody's faces. This was great.
I loved when she sat down and said she couldn’t stop staring at the remodel ! Mission accomplished she loved it
Being a Fan of Tony Hawks for so long is such a good experience, he's always up to something 😊 What a sweet family. They deserve it. Good stuff HOUZZ!!
