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.

Rachel's husband has big ideas, and not much to show for it.

Steve's wife Pauline has trouble seeing the final vision come together. Bryan has never had to budget for indecisiveness before, which might cost the couple big in the end.

Alison and Kevin are newlyweds ready to get their first reno started.

Stacey and Darren's home has quirks.
