EPISODE 36 - Face the Music

Skating coach Laura has recently moved out of the house she shares with her husband David and son Miles and moved into her Richmond Hill office. She is now sleeping on a floor mattress but at least there she has a small kitchen and running water. Laura and her family haven’t had a decent home-cooked meal in months, and all because she and David got fed up with living in the suburbs and bought a fixer-upper in the city.

David, a talented musician felt his creative juices drying up in the land of the cul de sac, so Laura agreed to move back to the urban jungle and into a century-old home in the heart of the city. While Laura ran her skating school, David and a series of professionals tackled the renovations jobs at home. But soon David discovered that restoring a 100 year-old house is a bigger, costlier and more complicated job than he expected. Halfway through the kitchen demolition, the renovations stopped. Since then the family has had nowhere to prepare and eat their meals. The state of the house has pressed all the trigger buttons for this family and things are getting worse by the minute.
