Rowhouse Showdown is a home renovation competition show that aired on the fyi channel in 2014. The show is hosted by Carter Oosterhouse, an experienced carpenter and television personality. He is joined by two judges: Jason Byrd, a designer and restoration expert, and Joshua Altman, a real estate agent and contractor.

The premise of the show is that three teams of home renovation experts are given a rundown rowhouse in a historic neighborhood of Baltimore, Maryland. The teams compete in a series of challenges to determine who can transform the house into the most beautiful and functional living space.

The challenges are designed to test the contestant's skills in a variety of areas, including design, construction, and budgeting. For example, in the first challenge, the teams must salvage as much usable material as possible from a nearby scrap yard and use it to create a unique focal point in their house.

Throughout the competition, the teams receive guidance and feedback from the judges, who offer expert advice on everything from design to construction techniques. The judges also evaluate the completed projects and award points based on criteria such as creativity, functionality, and attention to detail.

The winning team is determined by the total number of points earned throughout the competition. The grand prize is $50,000, as well as the satisfaction of knowing that they have created a beautiful home that will be admired for years to come.

The contestants on Rowhouse Showdown come from a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences. Some are seasoned professionals with years of experience in the home renovation industry, while others are self-taught DIYers with a passion for creating beautiful spaces. All of them share a strong desire to win the competition and create something truly special.

One of the most exciting aspects of the show is seeing the transformation of the rundown rowhouses into beautiful, modern living spaces. The contestants use a variety of materials and design styles to create unique and functional homes that are perfectly suited to their occupants' needs.

Another highlight of the show is the camaraderie and teamwork among the contestants. Despite the fact that they are competing against one another, they often collaborate and share ideas to create the best possible outcome for their respective houses.
