Mike Holmes Exposes the Dark Side of Home Renovations | Holmes on Homes 104 

This was almost me. We had actual window installers show up to put in new windows because the old ones POURED water when it rained. When they were putting in the windows however they didn't bother to look between the trim and the framing to notice that it was just a wide open gap between a quarter and a half inch! And of course when it rained the new windows POURED water. So we took off the interior trim and realized that we could see the window frames from inside. We spent a solid 2 days filling in the open gaps on 8 windows to fill in the gaps with Window/Door spray expansion foam. Something they could've done in hours when the windows were out, we solved 6 months later. Honestly it makes me never want to pay someone to do something when I can do it better myself.

I have watched Mike Holmes and his children practically from the start. Watched them grow into their jobs. Get married and children of their own. Hope they continue in his footsteps. As well as Damien and the crew. I miss watching them on TV and also now glad to see them on You Tube. Keep up the good work!

I am so happy that Mike decided to release his shows again on RU-vid. He should get the monetization for his product that the rip off artists have been garnering!

I remember watching this show all the time when I was like 5 or 8 or so! Great to see it again!

Enjoyed these new released episodes. Thank You for sharing!

Love all of the episodes I was able get in the USA - could you please release the episode about the handicapped woman with no bathroom - we're getting ready to redo our master bath & want to make it better for aging & senior issues. Thanks alot (ps: really like seeing Damon again! ❤)

Just discovered Mike. Great to watch how he tells it as it is. And to see him and the crew do it right. Learning alot. Thanks

I absolutely love Mike and the crew. The work and workmanship of your team is really amazing!! I have watched everything you have out!! Please keep it up!

Yep I am glad I found a youtube channel that has this show on it and its JUST Mike Holmes and nothing else. I can catch up or watch his video. His music video was cool if anyone has ever seen it.

Mike, I know you're in Canada but I really need help. I live in Ohio. Bought a house 2 years ago. It's an older house but since I moved in I've had multiple issues. Small septic tank that over fills with drainage water, flooded yard that smells like sewage, bedroom floor collapsed because the floor joists had rusted nails and no joist hangers. Floors are all wavy, toilet stack is cracked, no insulation in walls or ceiling, no ground wire on electrical plugs, old windows that leak water when it rains, shallow crawl space, no furnace only wall mount propane heaters. In the garage all the sill plates and studs are rotted out, garage is leaning, concrete is cracked and crumbly, old style ceramic fuses in garage, no ground plugs, ceiling is sagging, garage door has 2" cracks on both sides, too low to get my van into. I know I should have gotten an inspection but that was a condition of the cash only sale. I did take my dad and an Amish contractor to look at the place but they both agreed that it was a good investment. I bought what I could afford and now I'm living in a house that's crumbling. There has to be something you can do to help me. I'm not married, 54 yrs old and disabled. no kids except my 2 GSDs. They love the fenced in half acre but the yard is so muddy right now that when they come inside they are caked with mud. The mud creates dust and I breathe it in. Since it smells like sewage I don't know what I'm breathing in. I have to wear a CPAP at night and I have to change the filter once every 2-3 days. Please Mike, I need help and don't know where to turn. Some have suggested tearing the house down and starting over but I don't have any money to do that.

This is why we have bought old homes... like over 100, and now are building our own

My favourite RU-vid channel

Love mike and the show Derrick to ❤️

My favorite show

You have to pack the windows all the way around when you install them with insulation and a potty

Great YT channel keep adding more stuff👍😁

Hmmm, didn't realize it was that easy to become a contractor!!!???😂😂

Good job mike holmes

Wow 🤩

I love watching this show but one thing I would like to know at the end of the day who has to pay for all the renovations the Mike and his crew do

Americas guarantees are just as good. Sorry I meant bad.

Holy horrible video quality! Has it gotten worse? Yeah, looks like it!

Home Inspector's are good to have inspect your investment on All home's, new, old, recently renovared, even your own home while your getting renovation's done to your home. Just make sure to get your own inspector. Not one the Realtor or contractor recomend's. For the simple reason that the Realtor or Contractor might be paying the Realtor or Contractor might be paring the Inspector for a passing inspection report.
