Ep 6. Rushing Reno For A New Arrival

In season 5 episode 6 of House Hunters Renovation, titled Rushing Reno For A New Arrival, viewers are introduced to a family of four who are expecting their third child. With their current home feeling cramped and lacking in storage space, they have decided to purchase and renovate a larger house to accommodate their growing family.

The episode begins with the couple meeting with their real estate agent to view potential homes in their budget. They express their desire for a home with at least four bedrooms and multiple bathrooms. The couple places a particular emphasis on finding a home with a large, open kitchen as they enjoy cooking and entertaining. They also have a budget set aside for renovations, with plans to modernize and update any potential home they purchase.

After viewing several houses, the couple finally settles on a home in a desirable neighborhood that meets their criteria. The home has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a spacious kitchen with plenty of counter space. While the layout of the house is impressive, the home’s outdated design requires a complete renovation before the family can move in.

The renovation process is extensive, with the majority of the work concentrating on the kitchen and the bathrooms. The couple’s main priority is installing custom cabinets throughout the kitchen to provide ample storage space. At the same time, they also plan to install new appliances, countertops, and a stylish backsplash. They also opt for new hardwood flooring throughout the home, which will further modernize the space.

The first challenge the renovators face is updating the home’s plumbing system. The home’s plumbing system is old and inadequate to meet the needs of the growing family, with its minimalist two-bathroom layout. The plumbing team rips out the outdated pipes and installs new ones, allowing for proper drainage and hot water flow.

The primary focus of the renovation is on the kitchen. Here, the renovators work with the couple to install the custom cabinets, countertops, and appliances they had requested. The couple also opts for a striking backsplash of modern, subway-style tiles. With the kitchen finished, the home fitters move onto the bathrooms, installing modern, white tiling and brand-new fixtures in both rooms.

Another major challenge the renovators face is time. The couple is expecting their third child soon, and the renovation must be completed before their new arrival's arrival. The renovators carry out the project in an accelerated time frame to ensure that the family can move into their new home before the baby arrives.

Despite the fixed time frame, the renovation team successfully completes the project within budget and on time. The couple could not be happier with the upgrades to their new home, particularly the added storage and modern design features. They can't wait to move into their new home with their growing family.

In conclusion, House Hunters Renovation season 5 episode 6, Rushing Reno For A New Arrival, showcases a couple's search for a home to accommodate their growing family. Despite significant renovation hurdles and a fixed time frame, the renovators complete the project on time and within budget, resulting in a stunning, modern home that meets the family's needs for years to come.
