Extreme Makeover is back on TV and the first home they’re featuring is located in the Austin area!
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition gives teams five days to build a new home for a family in need. This season, the biggest home renovation show to ever exist, adds Clea Shearer and Joanna Templin of The Home Edit as hosts. Like the original, the reboot series will showcase heartwarming stories and mind-blowing builds for families who give back to their communities.
The first episode of the season features a home in Hutto. You may remember the renovation as it actually took place in 2023. The public was invited to the reveal that happened in September of that year.
Shearer told KVUE, “’It’s the most incredible experience I’ve ever had. We started the build at 5 p.m. There is a house already up [16 hours later]!”
To make it work, the show’s creators teamed up with the City of Hutto and builder Taylor Morrison.
“We did put together a 94-hour schedule,” said April Whitaker, division president for Taylor Morrison. “And these guys are doing it! We’re right on time.”
You can see the big reveal on the series premiere of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition at 8 p.m. on KVUE, or stream the next day on Hulu.
