HOLMES ON HOMES
Each week, construction and renovation expert Mike Holmes visits unlucky families who have been swindled or abandoned during their home improvement projects.
Mike uncovers shoddy construction methods, improper techniques, and down right rip-offs. While we watch Mike uncover and fix the problems, he explains how homeowners can safeguard themselves from these unscrupulous builders and dishonest contractors.
Throughout the series, viewers learn valuable lessons for their own home renovation projects such as the importance of a good contract, proper payment terms and what good craftsmanship should really look like.

Stopped by the Schlage booth at The International Builders' Show (IBS)(IBS) to see what's new in door hardware, specially smart locks. The Schlage Arrive smart lock is a simple smart home upgrade featuring a push button keypad with built-in WiFi so you can check if your door is locked from anywhere – all from the Schlage Home app.
This is going to be the perfect fit for our next job. The family we are helping has a lot of people coming and going from their house (babysitter, dogsitter, grandparents), so this makes complete sense for them. Everyone gets their own access code. Brilliant.

Proper airflo#AskMike Where should an exhaust fan be located in a kitchen?
Your exhaust fan is usually directly over the kitchen stove and is installed in a range hood or cabinet. It can also be integrated with a microwave oven, or mounted on the wall. The fan should be ducted to exhaust outside the home, not into the attic, crawlspace, or another area inside the building.

If we remove a window and install new bricks, we want the new bricks to match the existing bricks. We stain the new bricks, we don't paint them. Staining can last 40 to 50 years, with typical warranties that cover a 30-year period 🏠 👍
Almost any color of the stain is available and most pros provide on-site custom color match#BrickStainingi#homerenovationa#homerenoe#HomeImprovemente#homeexteriorerior
