Clean House Season 5 Episode 4 The Dunaway Family
- September 12, 2007
The Dunaway family is the focus of the fifth season's fourth episode of Clean House. This family's cluttered home is transformed by the team of experts who work together to create a comfortable and stylish living space for the family to enjoy.
At the start of the episode, the Clean House team meets the Dunaway family, which is comprised of David, Denise, and their two children. The family members each have different reasons for wanting to declutter their home. David is a musician and his gear has taken over the house; Denise is a stay-at-home mom and feels overwhelmed by the housework; and their children, both teenagers, are unhappy with the state of the house.
The Clean House team begins by assessing the situation, touring the home and understanding the family's specific needs and preferences. They discover that the house is almost uninhabitable, with clutter and dirt everywhere. Every room of the house is cluttered, and there is barely any room for the family to move around comfortably.
The Clean House team then challenges the family to separate their possessions into three categories: things to keep, things to donate, and things to throw away. They advise the family to get rid of anything they don't use or need to create more space in their home.
After the initial decluttering phase, the team heads to the local flea market to shop for some affordable, stylish furniture and decor. They pick out some great pieces that fit the Dunaway family's taste and personality. Some of the items they choose include matching bookcases, a cozy sectional sofa, and a new coffee table.
The team also comes up with some creative solutions for storage. They install racks on the ceiling for storing David's guitars and amps, and they create shelving units for Denise's son's impressive sneaker collection. The family is thrilled with the new organization and storage solutions, and they are amazed at how much space they've regained.
Finally, the house is cleaned from top to bottom, and the team adds some finishing touches such as plants, pillows, and rugs to complete the new look. The family can finally see the potential in their home and are excited to start living comfortably.
Overall, this episode of Clean House showcases the incredible transformation that can occur when a family is committed to decluttering and organizing their home. The team's creative solutions and eye for design create a comfortable, stylish space for the Dunaway family that they can finally feel proud of.
