The family is torn about what to do, as they want more space but don't want to take on a large renovation project. Jonathan and Drew continue to encourage them to see the potential in the bungalow, and eventually, the couple decides to take on the project.

They start by updating the outdated kitchen and bathrooms, adding new flooring throughout the home, and opening up the living space. Jonathan works with the couple to design a new layout that will meet their needs, while Drew manages the construction side of the project.
