Ep 5. Laundry Overload

In Love It or List It season 13 episode 5 titled "Laundry Overload," homeowners are faced with the challenge of a dysfunctional laundry room. Jill and Tim have lived in their suburban home for many years and have been struggling with their laundry room's limitations. With three kids and a busy lifestyle, they need a space that is more functional and efficient.

Jill's frustration with the small laundry room is evident, and she is tired of constantly battling the clutter, clean laundry and dirty laundry. As a result, she is looking for more storage and a better way to organize. Tim, on the other hand, is content to stay in their home and not make any changes.

Enter Love It or List It hosts Hilary and David, who are both ready to tackle the couple's laundry room dilemma. Hilary is tasked with the job of renovating and organizing the existing laundry room, while David searches for a new home for the couple to consider.

Hilary believes that with some creative design solutions, they can transform the cramped and cluttered laundry room into a space that functions better for the family of five. She envisions a completely new layout with improved storage, a larger countertop area for folding clothes, and a more efficient workflow for doing laundry.

David, on the other hand, takes a more conventional approach and starts searching for a new home with a larger laundry room that would suit the family's needs. He shows the couple several properties that have more spacious and organized laundry rooms, but Jill and Tim are hesitant to leave the home they have lived in for so long.

As the episode progresses, Hilary and David present their plans and the couple must decide whether to love their home after the renovation or list it and move on to a new property. With both options having their own unique advantages and drawbacks, Jill and Tim must weigh their choices carefully.

Throughout the episode, the tension between the couple grows as they struggle to make a decision. There are a few disagreements on what exactly they need from their laundry room, as well as how important it is to have a functional laundry room.

The episode ends with a final reveal of the renovated space, and the couple's decision of whether to love their newly renovated home or list it and move on. Will they make the choice to stay in their updated home, or will they be swayed by a new property with a more spacious laundry room? Viewers will have to tune in to find out.
