Building Bryks

The Bryks are a family of five and have moved over 20 times. In order to get their dream home, they decided to buy a house that needs a ton of work. With a budget that's a bit too high, Danielle, aka Mom, decides to do much of the work herself. After only a few days, disaster strikes and threatens to wash their dream home away.

With the renovation underway, and the discovery of a major basement flood, the Bryks need to cough up additional money to save their dream home. As mom tackles more and more of the projects, husband Greg sees the renovation for the first time and is very surprised.

In an effort to make the house livable for them to move in, the Bryks need to finish two essential rooms - a working bathroom and a basic kitchen. This easy task starts becoming impossible when the newly installed windows start leaking in the bedrooms.

Desperate to move in, the Bryks encounter another leak dripping from their newly finished shower. While busy breaking up the tiles to fix the problem, they demolish and rebuild the front porch. Finally, after a temporary sink is installed and an ancient house cleansing ceremony is performed, Greg finally gets his wish and moves his family in to their new home.

The Bryks have to prioritize the front yard before the weather turns ugly. In order to save money, Greg decides to dig out the yard himself and ends up sloping it the wrong way. During a severe rainstorm, the basement floods yet again, draining more money from their evaporating budget.

After unexpected delays and costs to the renovation, it's now time for the Bryks to reevaluate their plan. They will need to multi-task and conquer a number of projects all at once. Not only will Greg and Danielle need to landscape the backyard before the weather turns, they also have to complete the children's bedrooms.
