Ep 11. Roof-Raising Race for Space

Windy City Rehab season 1 episode 11, titled "Roof-Raising Race for Space," follows the adventures of Alison Victoria as she renovates a property in Chicago. The episode starts with Alison meeting with her architect, Donovan Eckhardt, to discuss the changes they want to make to the property's rooftop. Their goal is to transform the space into an outdoor oasis where homeowners can entertain guests and relax with a view of the city.

To achieve their plans, they need to raise the roof to add more space. This won't be an easy task, but Alison and Donovan are up for the challenge. They plan a competition between two different construction teams to see which one can raise the roof faster and with more efficiency. The competition is a fun way to push both teams to work harder and be more creative in solving any problems they might encounter along the way.

While the construction teams work hard to raise the roof, Alison and Donovan assess other areas of the property that need attention. They see the basement as a space that can be turned into a luxurious apartment, and they start working on the floor plan and design details. Alison notices that the existing stairs are too steep and need to be replaced. She also wants to add a custom handrail that will match the style of the home.

Meanwhile, the competition heats up as both teams work tirelessly to get the roof raised. They use cranes and other tools to lift the necessary materials and make sure everything is in place. The suspense builds as Alison and Donovan keep track of the time and progress of each team.

As the competition comes to a close, Alison visits a nearby showroom to pick out some high-end appliances for the kitchen. She wants to make sure that the appliances fit in seamlessly with the overall design of the home and are also functional for the owners. She's especially excited about a particular refrigerator that has smart features like voice activation and a touchscreen.

Back at the construction site, the winning team is announced, and they celebrate their victory. Alison congratulates them and discusses the next steps for the project, which includes adding windows and finishes to complete the rooftop oasis. With the work on the roof finished, Alison and Donovan turn their attention to the other areas of the property that still need attention.

This episode showcases Alison's dedication to bringing her clients' dreams to life, and her ability to work with a team to achieve her goals. The challenges faced during the competition and in other areas of the property show the importance of attention to detail and quality workmanship. Overall, "Roof-Raising Race for Space" is an exciting episode that demonstrates the transformational power of great design and hard work.
