The Best Home Improvement TV Shows for Inspiration
Do you ever just get the itch to fix up your home, but don’t know where to start? Whether your home is feeling in need of a little update, or you’re just ready for a full-on change, sometimes watching a little television can help spark that inspiration to help motivate you. If you’re a fan of home improvement shows already, you’ll probably recognize a few of these hits.
Our one bit of advice is to stay focused and not be intimidated by these shows. They are meant to be a resource and will help guide you through a better remodel, as well give important tips to use on your furniture and overall home. Enjoy your time watching and researching before you have to actually get to it!
1. Fixer Upper
Say hello to Chip and Joanne Gaines, the home remodeling power duo. They can turn a wrecked and decrepit home into a shiny, contemporary masterpiece fit for royalty. The show is great for many reasons, but one in particular has to do with the how the couple works together so well. It shows us how important it is to have someone work with you opposed to you figuring out how to do everything yourself. Having an extra set of eyes on a project can be incredibly helpful when spotting mistakes or just viewing things from another perspective.
Although the show recently ended, you can still pick up reruns on HGTV. We’re positive that they’ll continue to inspire for many years to come.
2. Property Brothers
Just like “Fixer Upper,” “Property Brothers” likes to keep the business in the family. The show is based around twin brothers, Jonathan and Drew Scott, who aim to help couples find their dream home in the most unlikely of places. The bro team makes it their responsibility to change an aged home into a modern one in the style of the couple they’re working with.
We hope this show inspires you to believe that you can make anything possible happen with your home. If you are looking for more inspiration, talk to one of our sales associates to get some help with your home. No matter how difficult, it can be accomplished as long as you are willing to put in the work.
Luckily, you can still find this showing ranking as one of the most popular shows on HGTV. Watch and you’ll get to see more than just some pretty before and after photos. You’ll get some excellent real estate and contracting expertise from the twins.
3. Rehab Addict
If you are all about breaking stereotypes in the world, and in the home, Nicole Curtis of “Rehab Addict” is your girl. She’s not afraid to swing a hammer and get sweaty, which is what it takes if you’re really looking to fix up your home in a huge way. “Rehab Addict” is all about taking a really rundown home, specifically pre-World War II, and reinstating it to its former glory as the pride of the neighborhood. It’s not her concern to modernize the homes, but rather update them to the best version of what they were. If you are someone who likes the vintage look, you’ll enjoy “Rehab Addict” with a fervor. You can find this show on both the diy network and on HGTV.
Fixing up your home is a big deal that takes a lot of work and strategy. Besides watching these shows, come view what we’ve got for inspiration! We’d love to help you figure out the furnishings as well as a nice design layout so your house can turn into the home of your dreams.
