Ep 4. Vacation Renovation in Ocean Park Washington

A couple from Washington is ready to renovate their vacation home in Ocean Park. With a budget of $200,000, they hope to transform the outdated property into a cozy and inviting beach retreat. The couple has their work cut out for them, as the house has not been updated since it was built in the 1970s.

The first step in the renovation process is to update the exterior of the house. The couple wants to give the house a more modern look, with new windows, siding, and a fresh coat of paint. The renovation team sets to work removing the old windows and replacing them with energy-efficient models. They also replace the old siding with new, durable materials that will withstand the harsh coastal weather.

Inside the house, the couple has big plans for the kitchen and bathroom. They want to replace the outdated appliances and fixtures with modern, sleek designs. In the kitchen, the renovation team removes the old cabinets and installs new ones in a white shaker style. They also install new countertops and a subway tile backsplash. In the bathroom, the team removes the old bathtub and replaces it with a spacious walk-in shower. They also install new fixtures and a new vanity with plenty of storage.

One of the biggest challenges for the renovation team is the layout of the house. The couple wants to open up the living and dining areas to create a more spacious, open-concept layout. To do this, they need to remove walls and relocate the staircase. The team works carefully to ensure that the house remains structurally sound while making these changes.

Throughout the renovation process, the couple faces some unexpected challenges. They discover mold behind the walls in the bathroom and have to take extra precautions to ensure that it is fully removed. They also realize that the old electrical system is not up to code, so they have to bring in an electrician to update it.

Despite these challenges, the renovation team is able to complete the project on time and within budget. The finished product is a beautiful, modern beach home that the couple can enjoy for years to come. They are thrilled with the results of the renovation and grateful for the hard work of the renovation team.
