Mikes fourth-generation farm house seems to be mostly kept together with spray foam - while the rest of the house features trough like holes in every ceiling in the house, mostly non- functioning windows and a front door that is permanently nailed shut.

Dan says he's pretty handy and has started dozens of reno projects in his home. Unfortunately, he's finished zero. It's a good thing he and wife Diana are yoga instructors because the house of exposed beams, faulty wiring, spray foamed ceilings and drywall chaos requires a strong dose of zen.

Dave's basement started as a finished space. He told his wife Cheryl that he would de-finish it, refinish it and when he was done, she'd have a beautiful finished space. Dave ripped out his entire basement, replaced everything with carpet and blankets and now no one will go down there but him.

Josh is funny. So, you might almost think that his house is an elaborate joke and the punch line is just about to be delivered. His house of disconnected cabinets, poorly- patched holes and terrifying electrical work gives our team of renovators lots to do and little time to do it.

Gabe has finished zero of his 367 projects, which means his Oakville home has no kitchen, no living room, no sink and it's missing a necessary weight-bearing wall (which he also took out). Unless you've ever had to go to the basement to do dishes, you can't imagine life in this home.

Gardner is creative. He fixed his staircase balusters with hockey sticks. His under-the-cabinet kitchen lighting is made from trailer lights and he has created a stovetop pot filler from a mic stand. And every room in the house features a fetching and eye-catchingly-large hole.

Dan took all the doors off the cupboards, sanded them, and then put some finish on them and voila: they looked terrible. So, he didn't put them up. Now, his cupboards have no doors, his kitchen a disaster, and when you look into the opening between the kitchen and living rooms you see turtles.
