Homeowners show contractor Bryan Baeumler ("Disaster DIY") their homes and share what they want out of an upcoming renovation before turning over the keys. With the house and budget under his control, it's up to Bryan to make the final decisions and give the homeowners the renovation of their dreams, even if it's completely different than what they expected. Bryan must determine if the renovation would serve the homeowners best by fulfilling their wants or their needs, and they don't know what he's decided until they see it themselves.
