Jessica and Scott Williams just want a new deck. The old one is moldy and rickety. The couple thinks they are up to the task of renovating on their own. But bugs, the heat, mud, and water damage test this couple's desire for the two-tiered deck of their dreams...at least one that they build themselves. Jessica's pampered dogs, Haley and Lucky, make several appearances in the episode.

Victoria Kemezy and her boyfriend Brandon Klann hate their kitchen. They think a renovation is definitely in order. The execution turns out to be a little harder than expected in this episode. Tempers run high, and trouble is around every corner. Heavy hot water heaters, cuts in the flooring, and broken tile make this project pretty stressful.
