Moisture problems that start with an ignored gutter
Structural issues caused by a tiny roof leak
HVAC systems dying early because filters never got changed
Electrical hazards created by outdated or overloaded panels
Drafts, mold, or heat loss from neglected caulking and insulation
None of these happen suddenly. They are slow-burn issues that creep up because homeowners don’t notice—or choose not to look.
Maintenance is your first line of defense.
Season 2 of *Holmes on Homes: Building A Legacy* premieres Sunday, July 19 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on HGTV US, with new episodes every Sunday.
This season is a reminder of why I’ve spent my career fighting to make homes safer and better built. We tackle serious problems, help homeowners find solutions, and share the knowledge people need to protect what matters most—their homes and their families.
I couldn't be prouder of my family and the incredible crew working behind the scenes. It takes a dedicated team to uncover the issues, find the right fixes, and show homeowners what it truly means to Make It Right®.
You’ll see powerful stories, valuable lessons, and plenty of eye-opening moments this season. Whether you're a homeowner, contractor, or simply love learning about how homes should be built, there's something for everyone.
Thanks for watching and supporting us over the years. I can't wait for you to see what's coming next.
See you July 19!
