- October 1, 2013
Bursting at the Beams is an episode from the third season of Leave It to Bryan. In this episode, homeowners Christine and Matt have been living in their home for three years with their two children. They love the location of their home but are struggling with space issues. Their house is bursting at the seams with clutter and their kids are getting bigger by the day. Bryan Baeumler steps in to help them with their problems.
Bryan examines the house and realizes that the problem is not just about space, but it's also about organization. He advises Christine and Matt to declutter and get rid of things that they no longer need to create more space. He also advises them to organize their storage spaces better. Christine is a bit resistant to the idea of decluttering as she is emotionally attached to some of the items in the house. Bryan understands this and takes the time to talk to her and explain how it will benefit their family in the long run.
Bryan then proceeds to tackle the storage spaces in the house. He adds more shelving units and cabinets to create more storage space. He also installs a Murphy bed in one of the bedrooms to create more floor space, which will be useful for the kids to play in. He designs custom cabinetry in the living room to make the space feel more open and organized.
The biggest project is the basement. It's an unorganized and unfinished space that is used for storage. Bryan realizes that it can be transformed into a multi-functional space that can be used for storage, laundry, and a play area for the kids. It's a massive undertaking, but he's up for the challenge. Bryan begins by installing a new ceiling and walls in the basement. He then proceeds to install a new laundry area with a sink and storage cabinets.
The highlight of the basement is the new play area that Bryan designs. He creates a custom-built play structure that is perfect for the kids to play on. The play area is complete with a slide, rock wall, and a playhouse. It's a dream come true for the kids, and they are thrilled with their new space.
Overall, Christine and Matt are thrilled with the changes in their home. They are finally able to enjoy their space without feeling cluttered and cramped. They are grateful for Bryan's help, and they now have a home that is organized and functional. Bryan has once again proved that he is the go-to guy for all home renovation needs.
