Whether you’re planning a kitchen remodel, tackling your first bathroom renovation, budgeting a whole-home project, or just trying to figure out what that weird noise in your wall is, Eric G and co-host John Dudley — a former contractor — break it down from two perspectives: the designer’s eye and the builder’s know-how.
Every episode delivers practical, actionable advice on:
Home renovation and remodeling (kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and beyond)
DIY projects and home repair for every skill level
Hiring contractors, avoiding scams, and understanding bids
Smart home technology and energy-efficient upgrades
Sustainable and healthy building materials
Design trends, product reviews, and what’s actually worth your money
You’ll also hear exclusive interviews with celebrity guests, industry leaders, and top building pros — plus honest, entertaining conversations that make home improvement feel less overwhelming and a lot more fun.
