1. Welcome to the Neighborhood!

Host Carter Oosterhouse welcomes three teams of renovation experts to Cincinnati, Ohio where they are each given a dilapidated rowhouse and the task to transform one room each week. The teams start off with a shocking tour of their rundown property and immediately start tearing down walls and opening up rooms. The first assignment is to completely renovate the living room, but they only have four days to do it and each team must quickly define their style; Dan and Katie create a "moditional" space, while Ted and Krys introduce the judges to "lumberjack sexy" and Geoff and Josh look to impress with their signature "coastal elegance" motif.
