In the first episode of Weekend Reno, viewers are introduced to Wayne and Susan Arthurs, a retired couple who are in desperate need of a home renovation. The Arthurs have been living in their house for over 30 years and have not made any updates since moving in. As a result, the home is outdated and in dire need of repairs.
Hosts Sarah and Tommy arrive on the scene to assess the Arthurs' home and begin planning the renovation. The couple expresses their desire for a modern and functional kitchen, as well as an updated bathroom and living area. Additionally, they hope to create a space for their grandchildren to play when they come to visit.
The renovation process begins with Sarah and Tommy tearing down the walls of the kitchen to create a more open floor plan. The outdated appliances are removed and replaced with new, stainless steel ones. The kitchen is also fitted with new countertops and cabinets, giving it a fresh and modern look.
The bathroom receives a similar treatment, with the old tiles and fixtures being replaced with new ones. The shower is enlarged and fitted with new glass doors. The vanity is also updated with a new sink and storage options.
In the living area, the hosts work to remove the old, bulky furniture and replace it with more modern pieces. They focus on creating a space that is both comfortable and functional for the Arthurs and their family. Additionally, they install new lighting fixtures to brighten up the space and make it feel more inviting.
Outside, the hosts focus on creating a yard that is both beautiful and usable. They remove many of the old and overgrown plants, replacing them with new, low-maintenance ones. They also create a space for the Arthurs' grandchildren to play, complete with a small playground and seating area.
Throughout the episode, viewers are treated to behind-the-scenes footage of the renovation process, as well as interviews with the hosts and the Arthurs. The couple expresses their gratitude for the hard work of Sarah and Tommy, praising their attention to detail and commitment to creating a space that is both functional and beautiful.
By the end of the episode, the Arthurs are thrilled with their newly renovated home. They express their gratitude to the hosts, who have helped them create a space that feels both modern and comfortable. The hosts leave the couple with some final tips for maintaining their new home and bid them farewell until their next renovation.
