Inside the home, the team also works on renovating the master bathroom. They install a new bathtub, shower, and double vanity. To create a unique and functional storage solution, they install a recessed medicine cabinet with mirrors and glass shelves.

The episode concludes with an update on the progress made on the home's kitchen, which now features a new sink and faucet installation and custom cabinets designed to maximize storage space. The homeowners are thrilled with the progress made so far and look forward to enjoying their newly renovated home.
