Thank you, George, for all you do. You change people's lives when you restore their homes, but then your shows provide hope and joy for those of us watching them afterwards. ❤

[@cynicannkeel8899]

As old as the original home was, soaking it in 6' of water probably rotted the wood base of the house quickly. Looked as though there was a great deal of damage. Probably a much bigger job than George usually takes on, it it was even reparable. Not all offspring would welcome a parent(s) living onsite, or willing to sacrifice space in their home for a separate apartment. Guessing it's at this point Dad's realizing he'll probably never live in his old home again.

[@madeinjapan6888]

Great to see you again, god bless you all for what you do! I see so much care and compassion AND great talent!

This is one of my all time favorite renovations. I periodically come back on that channel to watch the video.

[@tuniabjc9659]

I'd love to see what his crew could do with the his grandparents' old home. With all the creativity he has at his services. and there would so much demolishing and rebuilding he'd be in demolition heaven lol. He always does a great job and gets just the right people for each place. It's always nice to see how well they work together and how if they argue it isn't for long or they are able to clip it out anf show that everyone still comes together. wondering though has there ever been someone that wasn't happy with it? even if they pretended to be at the time for the show. I've seen some of the other shows that he revisits some of his favorites and they are still so excited/happy and appreciative for it all. I'd love to see what he could do with mine. But I have no funds of any types and the whole house is pressed /clapboard and no insolation etc the whole house should actually be demolished but don't have anywhere else to go. lol It looks like a shed compared to all these homes. but it is mine, Thanks for all you do.

probably too expensive. you can find the home on real estate websites... It is only one block from river and in major flood zone, so required flood insurance probably expensive...

That house is a complete knock down. That would involve building a new home from the ground up. No show has an unlimited budget and doing so would possibly keep them from helping others.

[@alanatolstad4824]

I was wondering about his parents' damaged home...uninhabitable?---And is it implied that Norm now isn't able to live independently w/o support?---And I have too many unanswered questions about how the family used that downstairs space...office? How often did they use that pool table, now gone?

[@Basstractorgirl]

[@sammic974]

Me too

[@hilaryc3203]

The other home looked to be too badly damaged for a George job. Norm needs to just sell it (the land), and buy either a little house or a condo with windows and move out on his own. He's been mentally beaten down by the experience and needs to pull his socks up and get cracking instead of letting people take care of him like he's 90.

[@b_uppy]

@@hilaryc3203 They could have gotten some things done. It was his family's ancestral home, as an extra they could gave done *something* . Maybe used volunteers to clean the trash outside, too.

Those dislikes were because they didn't do the guys ancestral home, but did a room in his daughter's house instead.. I would suspect that the family home was too far gone for either George (or George's budget) to do, and the best solution would probably be to demolish the house and/or sell the land.
