Mike’s Crew Transforms Don’s Kitchen in a Victorian Townhouse | Holmes on Homes 404

[@tomcede6428]

I've always thought this was the best remodel video. It shows what needs to be done to do it right.

[@rayvoorhies7180]

This is one of my favorite episodes. The early seasons of Holmes on Homes showed a lot more of the work. You can learn a lot about construction. I hope Don kept that house for quite awhile. Kitchen looks great and it has top quality materials.

[@lauraokelly2644]

Wow! I've never seen Frank that ticked off about the electrical.

[@DanielWSonntag]

I don't like seeing Frank so upset

[@markalan3108]

ain't never seen Frank that hot over electrical. I know he's gonna get that "certified" electrician's creds yanked very fast. GO FRANK!

[@prcervi]

the fool left his card after doing some incredibly illegal work, he'll have gotten what he deserved after Frank was done with him

[@gorillaau]

Poor Frank. "I want to quit now"

[@rhondakennedy819]

OMGosh! That was a holy horror!!! Looks wonderful. Be kind to each other. Stay safe. Love to all

[@gleff3345]

What a Golden Oldie. Love it.

[@anthonyslazas6413]

They could have made a series out of this one house! Fortunately he got the right guy to fix it.

[@surferdude4487]

Wow! A master electrician did that? IMO, it's time he retired. Back in the early 90's, I was living in a rented fire-trap. I asked my Dad, a master electrician to come in and do a few things for me. The moment he opened the first outlet box he asked me to never tell anyone that he had been in there. He found lamp-cord, tied onto Romex outside of a box of any sort to feed an outlet with no ground. That was just the first place he looked. Also, the person that wired the stove outlet had the neutral and one of the hot wires reversed. My Dad fixed the stove outlet and told me to find another place to live ASAP.

[@bingo_trippin]

I can appreciate the work up until the bottom wood of the door frame. (Obviously, I do not know the technical term). In the video it looks rotted and yet it was installed without replacement.

[@josiatokirina1788]

Excellent renovation! Holmes Made It Right. Thanks for sharing the video.

[@thedonleroy]

I've been trying to find this episode so I could rewatch it. Thanks for posting it.

[@NormaMartinez-cj2pv]

Great job the only thing i didnt like the counter top didnt match the back splash. But everything beautiful lov it❤

[@rachelpayne7862]

We need more contractors like you!

[@mikeyc4525]

Mike is THE example of how a contractor should be. If you don't take PRIDE in your work, then you need a different profession. EVERY trade should be reported, and prosecuted if possible for illegal jobs that could potentially be life threatening to homeowners. Good job Mike !!! 🔨🔨🔨

[@fredflickinger643]

Check out 26:18 as they were applying the caulk under the new door and material state of the wood below!

[@gorillaau]

I saw that and don't get it either. It's rotten, get rid of it. Perhaps it was a production constraint and they needed the footage, but then took the door out and "did it right". Benefits of rhe doubt.

[@stephanielovatt2787]

Semi-closed form? Beaufiful!

[@dingelfranz]

Wow!😮 That's crazy ey!

[@paulready8897]

Love Frank, first time I saw Shawn get emotional, love him and Ben, MJ looks like a kid in this episode. Anybody know what happened to Shawn and Be, as I haven’t seen them in the newer episodes.

[@SandraNelson063]

Shawn did a lot of tiling, and I think he and Ben moved on. Mike would change up his crews from time to time. Damon did a lot of shows with him , and then out of the blue got replaced. It's how TV production works.

[@AdventuringwiththeS.G.O.C.C]

I have watched a few of these older videos and I really hope the crew went on to great things.

[@theloredaughter]

As far as we know, both Shawn and Damon went on to start their own companies, so I think so.

[@seanthiar]

Would be nice to know if Frank got the 'licensed master electrician' losing the license.

[@jays106]

as mad as he was i think he might have. i have never seen frank say it was so bad that he wanted it disconnected right away as it was not even safe to be working on anything only time i seen him shut it down was to replace a panel the fact that he was both pissed and looked scared says alot

[@TonyM1961]

Nobody will LOOSE anything. While there was a lot of loose wiring, the electrician needs to LOSE his license

[@sharkey086]

I certainly hope so!

[@MarkOstrowski-s5g]

​@@jays106I love Mike homes and the crew

[@MarkOstrowski-s5g]

I want to know too

[@markfritz8411]

Lesson of the day: NEVER HIRE A CONTRACTOR.

[@TheWhale45]

Nice JOB.

[@gorillaau]

I almost shed a tear at the waste of raw material in in that disaster.

[@jesusfreak1568]

Chirp, chirp, chirp........it's live!!!! Wow 😮😵😑

[@H2Oredfirefox]

there used to be a couple of shows similar to this in the UK can't remember the names of the top of my head

[@MarkOstrowski-s5g]

Hi my name is Mark ostrowski I love Mike Holmes

[@JoseRoldan-y4x]

Mr.Mike question for you, why not take a picture of him and then they call you,when you read the inspection,could it helps the victims to defend in court with a walk through video of the mess he cause,even if he didn't do the Job and especially WHY NOT THE JUDGE ASK THE CONTRACTOR IS HE REAL,no one yet put it to any judges,when put a lean on the contract, There has to be a system of lawyers to fight for the victims especially elderly and women's.

[@chickenmanicmrt1705]

as a tall person i would redo a kitchen and make sure to add at least 2 to 3 inches on the bench tops, thile the kitchen looks good it also lloks so uncomfortable

[@amunderdog]

What became of the bathroom?

[@TheAustin2010]

Code didn't allow it

[@rayheatherly672]

always good to see shawn back, and getting more coverage/attentiion on the show

[@tigrisb28]

A new door was installed over rot in the corner. That is a big no no. Budget problems here?

[@tedpanes1865]

Another "contractor" that should be flipping burgers.😂

[@KM-te6wu]

Even with permits contractors cut corners😳

[@CatsSleepyHollow]

Miss the old Crew...

[@darrelljohnston8676]

Did the so called master electrician get his card pulled?

[@localleverageai]

Why fix a kitchen when u can just get new cabinets? Cheap n stylish options out there, ppl just gotta look harder!

[@VernonBarnett-zi1fq]

Hopefully they fixed the electric in the whole house

[@jays106]

if that contractor thought this was good work to be proud of he needs to get out of the business fast! before he gets someone unalived when their house crashes down on top of them!

[@christopherament-up1ym]

You put an expensive wood door on top of rotten wood

[@katebarker-ld5hi]

This chap seems really naive. He did no research, didn't check about permits etc. It's not just him, half the people Mike help have some responsibility for the mess they get into them expect him to pick up the pieces.

[@skyler951]

18 bucks a tile, Why..

[@daydmr2013]

Weren’t we told that Frank had passed away?

[@Leebabins]

Yes from a car accident.

[@kathe9662]

This has got to be one of the worst Mike is correcting it's almost like the guy or guys that messed this job did it on purpose.

[@jayropa]

The best episodes are when Frank loses it.

[@WilliamVincik]

is this the worst mess you ever ran into?!

[@harttork4363]

This job yikes a mess

[@SophiaAphrodite]

Remember folks. The contractors from this show are Boomers and GenX. The ones who say other generations are lazy or idiots. I guess they would know.

[@delyn13]

Again like i keep saying attached and semi attached houses should be illegal also this guy stopped the job prematurely im surprised that the contractor doesnt sue the homeowner

[@geraldd2109]

Why should they be illegal? Do you have any idea how many of this type of house there are in Toronto? What they should be, is renovated properly. On what grounds could the contractor sue the customer? Even a layman can see the work was crap.

[@delyn13]

@@geraldd2109 if his house catches fire it will set the joined house on fire and could kill everyone living in the joined house its a liability point blank and as far as the contractor he wasnt finished with the renovation and is owed money for the work

[@Megumin_Random]

@@delyn13at that point, though, what’s the difference between this and any apartment building, or any house with an apartment. You can’t simply require every person to live 30 feet away from each other, no exceptions. As long as the buildings are sufficiently fire broken, the other houses will be fine enough. But the contractor clearly didn’t care to follow those requirements
