Scott: I think I tore my pants.
[2]
Did I tear my pants?
(laughing)
[4]
No, I probably
didn't tear my pants.

Steven and Roo live in
a cookie-cutter home
[20]
in the suburbs.
[21]
Now they love their
location but they're not
[23]
so thrilled with the
lack of curb appeal.
[26]
So I'm gonna spend
the day at their house
[27]
to see if we can give the front
[29]
of their home some personality.
[32]
Scott: Good morning!
Hello, good morning!
[35]
Scott: And who's this?
This is Kobe.
[36]
Hey Kobe, how you doing?
[38]
So I understand you guys want
[39]
to do some work
outside your home.
[41]
Yes, we definitely do.
[42]
Okay, let's stand
back and take a look.
[44]
So here's the outside.
[46]
It's just a little
bit cookie cutter.
[47]
It looks the same as
everybody else here.
[49]
The white railings.
[51]
It doesn't really
match our personality.
[54]
We think it should be
[55]
a little bit more
modern and contemporary.
[57]
There's lots we can do here.
[58]
We'll take these railings off,
[59]
we'll do something a
little more modern.
[61]
And then there's even room for
a little bit of landscaping
[63]
to make it feel a little cozier.
[64]
You guys ready to get to work?
[65]
- Let's do it.
- Absolutely.
[66]
'Cause we're gonna
do it all today.
[68]
(laughs)
Okay.
[69]
Alright, let's do it!
[70]
(upbeat music)
[71]
Scott: We're getting to work.
[75]
Yeah!
[76]
You guys are handy
with the tools.
[78]
What do you do for a living?
[79]
I am a competitive
figure skating coach.
[81]
You're a competitive
figure skating coach?
[83]
Yeah. (laughs)
[85]
Scott: How hard is a quad jump?
[86]
Well, can you spin four
times in less than a second?
[89]
(laughs)
[91]
If I can renovate your
front yard in a day,
[93]
you can teach me how to
do a quad in an hour.
[96]
I could probably
teach you the start
[97]
of what we call a waltz jump.
[98]
What about a full turn, though?
[100]
You could do a full turn.
[101]
You're gonna put
your feet together.
[102]
You're gonna bring your arms
[104]
around this time to
start the rotation.
[106]
And then take it to a full turn.
[108]
One foot.
[109]
Beijing 2022!
[111]
Feet goes first.
[112]
Jump!
[113]
There we go!
(laughs)
[114]
I had too much rotation!
[116]
I should have gone
straight to the double.
[117]
You should've gone
straight to the quad.
[119]
- Straight to the quad.
- Straight to the quad.

Here's what we're gonna do.
[133]
And by we I mean you.
- Alright.
[134]
The garden is gonna follow
the line of the house.
[137]
So we've gotta
get the grass out,
[138]
turn the dirt,
[139]
and then we'll start planting.
- Perfect.

Scott: One of the best
ways to make a big impact
[153]
with curb appeal is to change
the color of your door.
[156]
But the most important
thing is the type
[158]
of paint you're using as well,
[159]
so on the front
door, I'm gonna use
[161]
the Para Ultra Hybrid
Technology paint.
[164]
What's great is
that it's durable
[165]
like an oil-based paint,
but it has the low VOC
[168]
and cleanup of a
water-based paint,
[170]
which makes it easy to use.
[172]
And this one here has
got scuff-resistance,
[175]
so when you're coming
in and out of that door,
[178]
it ain't gonna make a mark.
[180]
Wow, look at that color!
[182]
(upbeat music)
[190]
Little bit of landscaping
really finishes off the space.
[193]
We've got the hydrangeas
along the front here,
[195]
that's gonna cover up the
concrete on that side.
[198]
A couple standard
hydrangeas, which is really
[200]
gonna anchor the front entrance.
[202]
And some mulch along
the bottom just
[204]
to make it feel
nice and finished,
[206]
to hold in some moisture,
and to block from weeds.
[209]
Now that it's almost all done,
[212]
I'm gonna show these boys
[214]
what the new front of
their house looks like.
[217]
(cheerful music)
[220]
Come on!
[221]
Holy cow!
[223]
Oh, my God. It's awesome.
[225]
It's like wow!
- It's so different.
[226]
- It just like pops.

[232]
It just looks so
high end, we love it.
[234]
So it was obviously a
lot of work for one day,
[236]
but not impossible.
[238]
We replaced all the railings.
[240]
Now you've got the
tempered glass,
[241]
which is nice and clean.
[243]
We used black as an accent,
[245]
so when you look
down all these decks,
[247]
yours is the one
that stands out.
[249]
We did the shutters on the
whole front of the house.
[253]
We planted this nice
garden all the way around.
[256]
You guys worked really
hard to dig them out.
[260]
And painted that door!
[262]
(laughs)
[264]
And we set up the nice table,
you got the table and chairs.
[266]
It's actually nice
to sit there now.
[268]
- Yeah.
[269]
It looks like somebody
actually lives here now.
[271]
It doesn't look like
somebody just moved in.
[273]
Now you guys can be
proud of your home
[275]
both inside and out.
[276]
- Definitely.
- Definitely.
[277]
Alright, now enjoy all the
comments from the neighbors.
[279]
Will do.
(laughs)
[281]
Wow, that's crazy.
[284]
Okay, Beijing 2022.
(laughter)
[286]
Prepare yourself.
[287]
- And kick and jump, one foot.
[288]
There we go!
[289]
Awesome.
Ba-bum!
