[@rickthompson4315]

[@mxb_se]

Great to see another Holmes series on here!

[@wpgrogue]

I love this episode, it gave me help ideas for the renovations and I learned a lot from when they are talking about and I love the design

[@lovestosingalot55bodin7]

Your home is beautiful!What a great new start for the two of you. Congratulations! I love the teamwork with your Dad at the helm. Enjoy many years together in your newly renovated home; including your shower (thanks to Dad's advice....no tub!!)

[@dougvanausdal3162]

[@karensmutny6090]

GOOD JOB MIKE, Make it right the first time !!!

[@jimholmes4729]

Love the Ferris Bueller homage in the outtake. Well done.

[@marcparise1391]

Sr was right on the floor upstairs across and the door being glass. 2/2 on Senior🤓👍

[@bobjohnston5527]

Beautiful home and back yard Mike Jr

[@Dk-qf8dd]

Solar is good but … check with your insurance carrier on the type you are putting in. There may be additional cost or a rider. Additionally check with your local power company. They may have restrictions on your usage.

[@bonitarosief2923]

Love your home, congratulations

[@rickthompson4315]

After Part 1, I've been waiting for Part 2! Thank You! ❤😂❤ Christmas came early. MERRY CHRISTMAS MIKE & TO EVERYONE YOU LOVE! AND THE ONES WHO LOVE YOU! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dalegereaux1863]

Great show, beautiful house ! 👍

[@Kariann-i4l]

Your future wife is very lucky to have such great in-law, fantastic job, everyone beautiful, as always, ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@desireegarrett1306]

Beautiful house

[@paulready8897]

No his and her sinks in the master bathroom though. Beautiful renovation.

[@garygraham6699]

DONE RIGHT ✅️

[@stephen21100]

I have to agree with Mike Sr on dishwashers, I’ve noticed certain items that are listed as “dishwasher safe” deteriorates faster when washed in a dish washer than by hand.

[@dalegereaux1863]

MJ's house so MJ should have the final decision on the layout. Big Mike actually said if it was my house . . . Well, it's not your house, it's MJ's house ! 😉😂

[@blackmanops3749]

Ya, but he has the experience and eye. And he was right about those changes.

[@disgruntled9296]

One thing about solar panels on the roof that I have never seen discussed is the cost associated with replacing the existing roof that the solar is mounted on. In my mind that is a huge expense, eating up the savings of the solar.

[@ryefry]

I didn't know when this came out, but those solar panels look old. The ones i had installed on my house 10 years ago were beautiful. Black frames with nearly black panels. They were so sensitive they picked up a charge on a full moon.

[@gmiller1524]

Nice starter home, make some dough on it and get a large property to have some privacy....several acres and big fences make good neighbors!!!

[@helookalikaman79]

40:00 The show just started!!!!

[@maxbates3045]

Jeez I'm finally early to a video

[@shelleyzaragoza2195]

Holmes sees things to make the his home son right. By giving his advice to view what will make empty space into a sitting room. Liked his future his future daughter in law went with the black bricks for the house.

[@johnjoiner18]

I don’t like the dark brick. It will draw more heat from the sun especially during the summer when it’s hot.

[@JoseRoldan-y4x]

Congratulations Sir Holmes and Wife Outstanding House, Having a Master Dad Builder, Sir Holmes what a Master Plan with Wife inputs and my I said I'm Jealous in a good way, you might gets some calls in the Future and Taking steps from Dad its becoming fabulous knowing and the knowledge that who knows when the Dad handle the Hammer down to your hand or a excellent builder on Damon, Wish the Dad pick, keep working hard and learning hard every Job projects.

[@agrisea.original]

So the winter snows dumping right in front of the main door, that is not a good idea.

[@roberthowland7587]

Great job. But why not have a back door on your garage?

[@terryvince806]

Where did the professional tile setters go? The tile in the small bathroom should have been set so that the pattern matched in the corners.

[@keithwallington4966]

i have no dishwasher in my house just one more cost you do not need nice place though

[@RonaldTice-s1e]

Are they building Jr a house or a house for Sr LoL 😂

[@jonmarnix4835]

Not everybody has plenty to do at home like that. I would love to have a new roof and windows and insulation, but I don’t have the money for it. Will like I don’t have the money to go on a vacation.

[@fi77er]

Dishwashers save water and reduce hot water use.

[@whtelephant1]

Let him move in then tell him, see I should have had the second tub.

[@terrihartbarger]

It'll be interesting when they have children and the meditation room changes to a child's bedroom. Enjoy while you can😂😂😂

[@imayb1]

They still have a "spare room" for a kid. They can move whatever was in the spare room to the empty basement.

[@adamgain4883]

House looks beautiful but onlt d9wnside is yet again the particle board cabinet. Youve spent good money dont go cheap.when it gets to kitchen

[@flowerstone]

I would not use cabinets made out of particle board. 3/4” birch plywood with MDF smooth doors. Nothing for grease and dirt to hang on.

[@derickburgad6996]

What happened to $50k? That turned into 400 in a hurry

[@prcervi]

50k is enough to get 2 good bathroom reno's, adding floors and overhauling structure was never going to be under 200k

[@lauriej9418]

Mike, what made you pick such a tiny lot.

[@tmontgomery7592]

Would have been funny if he still hadnt painted the garage door yet.

[@amunderdog]

framer set the trusses incorrectly, then Jr has a bright idea. It is going well.

[@carlitoscard4248]

I thought it was to improve some parts not to build a house inside of a house, how a home owner will replace a light bulb in the chandelier? Mr Holmes you can tell me how many screws go in the wall, it will be so. It is not who is in charge is about who has the best inmagination

[@thegumpfiles778]

Using RCC to fix that foundation crack is absolute betrayal to those that have spent their time and giving free labor to your other causes ie Bowen foundation .Brutal .

[@Heather-m4o]

Mmmm whose home is it after all? I can understand Mike seniors way but sorry dad butt out a bit more

[@ronaldhudson169]

I would have stuck with the open high ceiling in the entry. The view from the top of the stairs - that floor looks like I will have to duck going down the stairs, I am not that tall but it looks like a low ceiling.

[@nitrorange]

There’s a concept in architecture to have a lower ceiling at the entry and go to higher, it gives the feeling of opening up as you go into the house, they made a good choice, and it gives more living space to the second floor. Cathedral entry is very 1990s. Also MJ is already building a new house for them over on the Mike Holmes channel.

[@fredkelso1089]

Michael, can you imagine what your dad is going to be like if you 2 have a son?

[@rory-red]

Should have built a Hempcrete house not non-green wood house plus hempcrete has twice the R value. And it last roughly 1000 years.

[@robynw6307]

I know Mike wants to do the best for his son, but it's MJ's house and he and Lisa should get what they want. Maybe Mike is too used to holding the reins but he needs to loosen them in this case. Or maybe it's just all done for drama on the show. Either way I'm not enjoying the tension caused by Mike.

[@jays106]

common myth about solar is "renewable" while yes the sun maybe but when solar panels go bad they are not recycled as they are not or are minimally recyclable so when they go bad they are just dumped in the landfill anyway

[@prcervi]

there's work being done to make them less environmentally impacting and more recyclable, we'd be further along in the process if more investment had been done years ago but that's pretty common for any tech that might take a slliver of profit from coal, oil and gas

[@mickhursey4802]

Quite honestly, I'd leave Mike Snr to it and let him build the house he wants and build the house you actually want elsewhere - unless of course Daddies money is paying for it then you're pretty stuffed. His brick choice, his bath choice and his landing choice. I'm all for taking advice but hell, that's too much..

[@mattbarrett41]

Too much house for that neighborhood. He’ll never get his money out if he sells. Thank God it’s subsidized

[@jennymark7403]

I bet not one dollar is given by the g/f you would think it's hers, makes my skin crawl

[@ca-lt1fc]

this project is between Mike and MJ, the fiancee is not really a part of anything...she is just there and get what she gets. wonder how long their relationship will last?

[@cherylrosalis1948]

Buddha?

[@blackmanops3749]

Again, Frank cheaps out on the receptacles. There should be twice the number dicatated by "minimum code". Hasn't he learned anyrhing from Holmes all these years? And only ONE receptacle in the garage/shop!? That is just criminally irresponsible! I would really like to know the numbers given the original budget of $50k was probably blown by before the roof was even up.

[@cw3339]

A dishwasher uses less water, than hand washing!

[@duncangough9969]

Dishwashers make your dishes clean. Hand washing really doesn't and uses more water!

[@gland1830]

It's his house! I like and respect you Mike, but back off.

[@josiatokirina1788]

Solar panels are great on the roof until they get covered with snow! In northern climates there is 6 months of snow! Black bricks show more dust and dirt. Those houses are too close together. Where I live, houses have to be a minimum of 15 feet from the property line. That is 30 feet total! Cathedral ceilings look good, but are a waste of space and money, a non usable space that has to be heated and airconditioned.

[@blackmanops3749]

Very noisy as well. Sounds reverberate throughout.

[@Hippiemanthc]

Who cares what the US is doing. What’s the percentage for Canada.

[@blackmanops3749]

We're in the process of turning Canada into the 51st State. Try to keep up.

[@spiderowboy]

I liked this show better before they tried to be actors, they are not. So much seems to be scripted now.

[@UpInYourFeelings]

That post foam is crap, very surprised he used that for his fence posts.

[@johnblount1347]

You got something nice. Once you marry her and she gets bored and says she wants half then she will have a nice villa to call home.

[@mobius7089]

Hurt much?

[@prcervi]

there's marriage contract terms to cover that

[@blackmanops3749]

He'll build back better and come out on top.

[@BearStar1]

Black Brick ? Ewwwww! YUCK !

[@delyn13]

JR ITS YOUR HOME NOT UR FATHERS DONT LET HIM MAKE DECISIONS ON YOUR HOME this is why I wont ever hire Mike sr to do anything on my home he just doesnt listen

[@jays106]

he does not always listen as 99.9% of the time the home owner has no clue wtf they are talking about and the things they want are not possible. On the show rarely are the home owners having to pay anything to fix the crap

[@delyn13]

@ its there home as a contractor its there job to give them exactly what they want or they dont get paid Mike should know that but its Mike's world and he wants everything his way i would throw him out of my home if he didnt give me exactly what I want

[@prcervi]

it's being played up for tv drama, also any changes in structure have to be sent off to be re-okayed by the engineer and permit office (a multiday process that upsets prearranged time tables of who's showing up when)

[@delyn13]

@ its still mike jr home NOT MIKE SR
