I'd say there will be interesting conversations around Christmas when all the siblings living around her suddenly find they are living in houses that look like they are the poor relation (which they are).

I imagine it being so uncomfortable when you live on the road with your family and moved there when you were scraping pennies. 20 years later and they're doing well while others probably stayed behind financially.
At least in my family the jealousy would be crazy. But then again my family only stays in good terms because everyone lives at least 2000km apart from each other.

i agree. i think it comes across badly.

True, he might think it comes across as efficient but many might see it as a case of throwing up a house so he can get on to the next job.

Is there ever a show with 50k budget for ordinary folk?

Not a chance, sure that wouldn't make the builders and suppliers, sorry sponsors a penny.

Still it would be nice to see a realistic refurb with say a budget of 100 -150 max. Nothing fancy, but looking good at the end for that budget.

The budgets proposed in RTI are out of the reach of most people now, But I suppose we are hooked anyway, and that is what they want to achieve. Escapism for the poor masses!

Why is the builder going for the world speed record on this?

Shortcuts come to mind tbh. Id rather my builder was keen to get it done perfectly regardless of time rather than fast.

Given that the builders logo is in almost every shot I take it he delivers. It's when their logo is blurred out that you know things will be interesting before the end of the show.

Someone never prepped the builder before he came on the programme. He's coming across badly.

Why do the daughters have voices like they're in their 40s? (No offense, a lot of Irish women have quite deep voices and it's funny to see that it starts so early)

Amazing how Americanized young people’s accents have become.

Maybe to those who aren't planning a build. But I'd say anyone who is planning on a building project within 100km of Dublin is googling his company.
