1
00:00:01,767 --> 00:00:03,166
From Apocalypse Now to The Matrix,
2
00:00:03,166 --> 00:00:06,767
Laurence Fishburne has portrayed some of film's most iconic characters.
3
00:00:06,767 --> 00:00:09,667
But when the award-winning actor isn't commanding the screen,
4
00:00:09,667 --> 00:00:11,667
he's usually hanging out with Greg.
5
00:00:11,667 --> 00:00:15,166
Greg and I have known each other since the mid-'90s.
6
00:00:15,166 --> 00:00:16,900
We have great affection for each other.
7
00:00:16,900 --> 00:00:18,500
And for the past 15 years...
8
00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:20,867
We have so many things in common that we love.
9
00:00:20,867 --> 00:00:22,767
...Greg has been Laurence's right hand...
10
00:00:22,767 --> 00:00:26,100
He does such a tremendous job of taking care of me.
11
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:27,266
...but also...
12
00:00:27,266 --> 00:00:30,166
I consider Greg to be family. He's like my younger brother.
13
00:00:30,166 --> 00:00:32,166
...Greg and his partner love their home.
14
00:00:32,166 --> 00:00:34,000
They're the sweetest people.
15
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:35,467
Oh, this is a great backyard.
16
00:00:35,467 --> 00:00:38,166
...And used all their resources renovating what they could.
17
00:00:38,166 --> 00:00:40,400
-What's the biggest issue? -Right now, it's drainage.
18
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,000
It's just cracking and chipping and this is like a wasteland.
19
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,867
They're always having their friends here.
20
00:00:45,867 --> 00:00:48,500
But it just isn't quite what it should be.
21
00:00:48,500 --> 00:00:52,367
- So Laurence wants to fix it up...
22
00:00:52,367 --> 00:00:54,900
...by transforming every inch of their backyard...
23
00:00:54,900 --> 00:00:56,166
-What's this? -Don't worry about that.
24
00:00:56,166 --> 00:00:57,800
Pretend they're not even here.
25
00:00:57,800 --> 00:00:59,767
...to show Greg just how much...
26
00:00:59,767 --> 00:01:01,400
He's had my back for a long time.
27
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:02,867
...their friendship means.
28
00:01:02,867 --> 00:01:04,600
-Whoa. -Right this way.
29
00:01:05,700 --> 00:01:07,800
- Oh, my God!
30
00:01:14,967 --> 00:01:18,800
You have worked with some of the most epic directors in the industry.
31
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,266
-Yeah. -Clint Eastwood.
32
00:01:20,266 --> 00:01:21,300
-Spielberg. -Right.
33
00:01:21,300 --> 00:01:22,667
-I mean, the list goes on. -Coppola...
34
00:01:22,667 --> 00:01:24,667
Spike Lee, John Singleton,
35
00:01:24,667 --> 00:01:25,734
Abel Ferrara.
36
00:01:25,734 --> 00:01:29,100
I just think it's amazing to show for the one and only
37
00:01:29,100 --> 00:01:31,000
Laurence Fishburne.
38
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,667
I can't believe all of the, the franchises
39
00:01:33,667 --> 00:01:35,767
that Laurence has been a part of, movies, TV series,
40
00:01:35,767 --> 00:01:37,000
you have The Matrix,
41
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,767
you have Boyz n the Hood.
42
00:01:38,767 --> 00:01:40,900
Is there a director that you've always wanted to work with
43
00:01:40,900 --> 00:01:41,934
that you haven't yet?
44
00:01:41,934 --> 00:01:43,767
Because it sounds like you've worked with everybody.
45
00:01:43,767 --> 00:01:45,900
Oh, God. I haven't worked with Ridley Scott.
46
00:01:45,900 --> 00:01:47,567
Well, you know, here's something we could do.
47
00:01:47,567 --> 00:01:50,000
Ridley Scott. You know, we're Scotts. So...
48
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,500
-Yeah! -We must all be related.
49
00:01:51,500 --> 00:01:56,000
We'll pitch a new action... superhero type movie
50
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,467
where we're three brothers that renovate houses.
51
00:01:58,467 --> 00:02:00,300
-I think this is a hit. -Wow.
52
00:02:00,300 --> 00:02:02,000
There is no arguing that Laurence
53
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000
has had an epic acting career.
54
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,667
I've had a really, really beautiful life.
55
00:02:05,667 --> 00:02:08,166
I've enjoyed it and I've gotten to do a lot of things
56
00:02:08,166 --> 00:02:10,367
and if it wasn't for acting, I'd, you know,
57
00:02:10,367 --> 00:02:12,767
I don't know what kind of life I would've had.
58
00:02:12,767 --> 00:02:14,467
Even though his life has been thrilling,
59
00:02:14,467 --> 00:02:17,800
he couldn't do what he does without the support of his right hand man, Greg.
60
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,367
No. Greg helps manage his personal and professional life
61
00:02:20,367 --> 00:02:22,967
so Laurence wants to turn the tables and take care of him.
62
00:02:22,967 --> 00:02:25,166
- He's everything.
63
00:02:25,166 --> 00:02:27,367
I met him about 20 years ago
64
00:02:27,367 --> 00:02:28,600
in the West Village in New York.
65
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,000
But there was another actor he was working for, Orlando Jones.
66
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,467
-Ah! -Who's a brilliant actor and a great friend of mine,
67
00:02:33,467 --> 00:02:36,133
and I was like, "Orlando, I'm stealing Greg from you."
68
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,667
He was so together
69
00:02:38,667 --> 00:02:41,967
and I just thought, this is the kind of cat I need to watch my back.
70
00:02:41,967 --> 00:02:45,166
Greg is like the younger brother who looks up to you
71
00:02:45,166 --> 00:02:47,567
but who also surpasses you
72
00:02:47,567 --> 00:02:49,000
in the things that he's passionate about.
73
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:49,934
-Yeah. -Yeah.
74
00:02:49,934 --> 00:02:52,266
We have so many things in common that we love.
75
00:02:52,266 --> 00:02:53,667
-Really into motorcycles. -Oh, yeah.
76
00:02:53,667 --> 00:02:56,000
When I met him, he hadn't been writing for very long.
77
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,767
I had been writing for a number of years.
78
00:02:57,767 --> 00:03:00,600
My nickname for him is Major Speed because he likes to go fast.
79
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:01,567
-Oh. -Okay.
80
00:03:01,567 --> 00:03:03,767
And his nickname for me is Miss Daisy
81
00:03:03,767 --> 00:03:05,100
because I like to drive slow.
82
00:03:05,100 --> 00:03:06,467
-Oh, my God.
83
00:03:06,467 --> 00:03:09,300
I-- I always say that whenever I'm driving with Jonathan,
84
00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:11,100
somebody's going slow, I'm like, "All right, Miss Daisy.
85
00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:13,266
Time to pick it up."
86
00:03:13,266 --> 00:03:16,266
So he and Jill, they bought this home,
87
00:03:16,266 --> 00:03:18,100
and it was a dream home for them,
88
00:03:18,100 --> 00:03:20,367
and after they were there for maybe, I don't know, a year?
89
00:03:20,367 --> 00:03:22,367
They started discovering those little things
90
00:03:22,367 --> 00:03:24,767
and they were all, like, out in the backyard.
91
00:03:24,767 --> 00:03:26,500
So it was like, when it would rain,
92
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:28,767
like the deck would get all, like, flooded
93
00:03:28,767 --> 00:03:30,667
and the water would go into the pool and...
94
00:03:30,667 --> 00:03:33,100
-Oh, yeah. -Then they had a pipe that burst or something
95
00:03:33,100 --> 00:03:36,867
-and the deck chipping and one thing after the other. -Uh-huh.
96
00:03:36,867 --> 00:03:39,166
So they were trying to, like, do their house and,
97
00:03:39,166 --> 00:03:40,467
and make it beautiful for entertaining
98
00:03:40,467 --> 00:03:41,900
their friends and their family and stuff
99
00:03:41,900 --> 00:03:43,266
and they just had to stop.
100
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,967
Where's Greg, by the way?
101
00:03:45,967 --> 00:03:47,867
-Is he in town? -Oh, no. No, Greg's gone.
102
00:03:47,867 --> 00:03:52,900
I sent Greg on a, on a very, very important assignment for about four weeks.
103
00:03:52,900 --> 00:03:54,100
He will be away.
104
00:03:54,100 --> 00:03:56,400
-A very important assignment? -"A very important assignment."
105
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,300
He will be away.
106
00:03:58,300 --> 00:04:01,567
Laurence sent Greg away to research the location for his next film
107
00:04:01,567 --> 00:04:04,467
and at the same time, has been working with Greg's partner Jill,
108
00:04:04,467 --> 00:04:06,667
who has given us the keys to their castle
109
00:04:06,667 --> 00:04:08,867
to put together this epic surprise.
110
00:04:08,867 --> 00:04:10,667
There's no place like home.
111
00:04:10,667 --> 00:04:12,400
Oh, Toto, we're here!
112
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,233
- We made it!
113
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:16,967
For Laurence to do this for Greg now,
114
00:04:16,967 --> 00:04:18,467
that just shows how close they are.
115
00:04:18,467 --> 00:04:21,300
-Okay. -Did you want me to, like, piggyback you?
116
00:04:21,300 --> 00:04:22,834
-Okay, you ready? -yeah.
117
00:04:23,500 --> 00:04:25,667
Yeah, and the crazy part is Laurence
118
00:04:25,667 --> 00:04:28,467
broke his ankle after we started the plan in motion.
119
00:04:28,467 --> 00:04:31,367
And so, when we were asking him, "Do you want to postpone? Are you okay?"
120
00:04:31,367 --> 00:04:32,533
-Mm. -He's like, "Whoa, whoa!
121
00:04:32,533 --> 00:04:35,166
My arms aren't broken, so I can still swing a sledgehammer."
122
00:04:35,166 --> 00:04:37,266
The nice thing is, because Greg's not here,
123
00:04:37,266 --> 00:04:38,367
-we don't have to sneak. -Yeah.
124
00:04:38,367 --> 00:04:39,567
We don't have to worry about it.
125
00:04:39,567 --> 00:04:40,600
The coast is clear.
126
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:41,867
I consider Greg
127
00:04:41,867 --> 00:04:43,667
to be family in that, you know,
128
00:04:43,667 --> 00:04:45,834
he's, he's like my, my younger brother.
129
00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:48,000
Oh, this is a great backyard.
130
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,166
Look at the access to the pool. Amazing.
131
00:04:51,166 --> 00:04:53,567
Let me just clue you into some things here first.
132
00:04:53,567 --> 00:04:56,300
-Yeah. -So you see all these holes in here,
133
00:04:56,300 --> 00:04:57,867
those chipping and stuff
134
00:04:57,867 --> 00:05:00,367
-and where the water is pooling over there. - Yeah.
135
00:05:00,367 --> 00:05:01,867
Like, sometimes it cools so badly
136
00:05:01,867 --> 00:05:05,000
it actually goes back into the pool which they already redid.
137
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,467
- Yeah. -So that was done.
138
00:05:06,467 --> 00:05:08,500
And then, you know, they tried to, like,
139
00:05:08,500 --> 00:05:10,166
do the thing here with this deck
140
00:05:10,166 --> 00:05:11,567
and they wanted to bring it out further
141
00:05:11,567 --> 00:05:14,600
but they couldn't because... of things like
142
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,266
this, like, what's this?
143
00:05:16,266 --> 00:05:17,667
What a bad location.
144
00:05:17,667 --> 00:05:20,967
So they're trying to, like, use this so they want to be able to come out
145
00:05:20,967 --> 00:05:24,300
and sort of, like, to have this be their outdoor living space
146
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:29,000
but it just isn't quite what it should be.
147
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,700
Greg and I have known each other since the mid-'90s.
148
00:05:32,700 --> 00:05:34,567
We have great affection for each other.
149
00:05:34,567 --> 00:05:37,567
We kid each other and we tease each other a lot
150
00:05:37,567 --> 00:05:39,300
in a really playful way.
151
00:05:39,300 --> 00:05:41,367
He's very protective of me
152
00:05:41,367 --> 00:05:43,600
because he does such a tremendous job
153
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,867
of taking care of me and making sure that things are the way
154
00:05:46,867 --> 00:05:49,900
that I need them to be in order for me to carry on doing what I do.
155
00:05:49,900 --> 00:05:52,567
And that's the thing that I've learned from him
156
00:05:52,567 --> 00:05:55,567
and continue to learn from him almost every day,
157
00:05:55,567 --> 00:05:59,767
is little ways in which you can interact with people
158
00:05:59,767 --> 00:06:02,266
and make those interactions
159
00:06:02,266 --> 00:06:05,867
not just pleasant but productive, meaningful
160
00:06:05,867 --> 00:06:08,567
in ways that have nothing to do with being a celebrity
161
00:06:08,567 --> 00:06:10,567
but just with being a human being.
162
00:06:10,567 --> 00:06:12,700
He's had my back for a long time.
163
00:06:12,700 --> 00:06:15,066
So, what's the biggest issue?
164
00:06:15,066 --> 00:06:17,367
Well, right now, it's drainage and you can see
165
00:06:17,367 --> 00:06:19,200
it's just cracking and chipping.
166
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,900
-It really... it's really weird. -Time to test.
167
00:06:20,900 --> 00:06:22,867
Uh-oh! Here we go.
168
00:06:22,867 --> 00:06:24,467
-Stand back. - All right.
169
00:06:24,467 --> 00:06:25,967
So watch this.
170
00:06:25,967 --> 00:06:28,467
I can already tell it's all running that way.
171
00:06:28,467 --> 00:06:30,767
- Right. -So the one thing that's good is you don't want it
172
00:06:30,767 --> 00:06:32,834
going toward the house, but right here...
173
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,266
-It's gonna go... -You get enough volume...
174
00:06:36,266 --> 00:06:37,967
-It's going right down. - Yeah.
175
00:06:37,967 --> 00:06:39,233
Right into the house.
176
00:06:39,233 --> 00:06:41,700
-Everything should be going that way. -It should be going there.
177
00:06:41,700 --> 00:06:44,000
That seems to be a big negative grade
178
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,166
and then, right on the corner of the house,
179
00:06:45,166 --> 00:06:47,767
-it's also seeping into the crawl space. -Exactly.
180
00:06:47,767 --> 00:06:49,900
This is the worst location for your AC condenser.
181
00:06:49,900 --> 00:06:52,567
There is literally no reason, when you have a yard like this,
182
00:06:52,567 --> 00:06:53,533
-and then there must be - Mm-hmm.
183
00:06:53,533 --> 00:06:55,100
-a ton of space around the backside. -Yeah.
184
00:06:55,100 --> 00:06:57,867
That was them doing it here for quick ease of access
185
00:06:57,867 --> 00:06:59,934
-instead of just putting where it should go. -Okay.
186
00:07:00,667 --> 00:07:02,300
Greg and Jill,
187
00:07:02,300 --> 00:07:05,000
they're really, really just the sweetest people.
188
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,066
They're always having their friends here.
189
00:07:07,066 --> 00:07:08,367
They're always entertaining.
190
00:07:08,367 --> 00:07:10,900
They're always making the most of life
191
00:07:10,900 --> 00:07:12,700
and the situations that they're in.
192
00:07:12,700 --> 00:07:15,867
Certainly, the back yard has been a big problem for them
193
00:07:15,867 --> 00:07:19,000
so I just felt like it would be beautiful
194
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,800
to be able to give them the opportunity
195
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,867
to not have to think about it or worry about it.
196
00:07:23,867 --> 00:07:27,567
You know what would be nice for them is they like to have their friends over a lot.
197
00:07:27,567 --> 00:07:28,800
It would be great for them to have
198
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,066
-maybe a kitchen that was outdoors. -Okay.
199
00:07:32,066 --> 00:07:34,166
I know that Greg and Jill
200
00:07:34,166 --> 00:07:36,367
love to have people over.
201
00:07:36,367 --> 00:07:39,467
They order these prepackaged feasts
202
00:07:39,467 --> 00:07:41,867
that they cook for their friends and invite them over
203
00:07:41,867 --> 00:07:45,767
and have these wonderful meals out here on the deck.
204
00:07:45,767 --> 00:07:47,867
This is definitely not set up for that.
205
00:07:47,867 --> 00:07:49,500
It's not quite right yet.
206
00:07:49,500 --> 00:07:51,600
- The outdoor kitchen you're talking about. -Right.
207
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,200
If we move a few things, this might be a great spot over here, yeah.
208
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,767
Look how bad the cupping is.
209
00:07:55,767 --> 00:07:58,500
I would have to say they did this, uh...
210
00:07:58,500 --> 00:08:00,200
Yeah, they did this. They did.
211
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:01,467
They wanted to bring it out further
212
00:08:01,467 --> 00:08:03,500
but because of the other problems that they had,
213
00:08:03,500 --> 00:08:05,900
for example, the window behind you, they couldn't finish,
214
00:08:05,900 --> 00:08:07,500
-doing that. - Oh, yeah.
215
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:10,400
You know what would actually be kind of nice in a space like this
216
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,367
is to actually have a pergola or an awning or something--
217
00:08:14,367 --> 00:08:16,000
-Some kind of shade? -Yeah because right now,
218
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,667
-like, I can see they've got a bunch of umbrellas. -Right.
219
00:08:18,667 --> 00:08:22,266
If they had a proper shade structure,
220
00:08:22,266 --> 00:08:25,100
then this could all be clear.
221
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:26,233
You wouldn't have to have
222
00:08:26,233 --> 00:08:27,900
-any of these obstructions here. -Right. Right. Exactly.
223
00:08:27,900 --> 00:08:30,000
I see another problem, especially for someone
224
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,367
-who has a broken foot from tripping on a step. -Yes.
225
00:08:32,367 --> 00:08:34,300
It's dangerous having something that's not a full step
226
00:08:34,300 --> 00:08:36,367
but also right by the pool, that's terrible.
227
00:08:36,367 --> 00:08:37,734
Yeah, it's not good. It's not good.
228
00:08:37,734 --> 00:08:41,900
I'm guessing that this pad was either poured on top of an original pad.
229
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:43,066
Okay.
230
00:08:43,066 --> 00:08:44,800
Even though the decking around the pool
231
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,367
looks like it's in better shape,
232
00:08:46,367 --> 00:08:48,700
-I think aesthetically it could be nicer - Yeah. Sure.
233
00:08:48,700 --> 00:08:49,867
if we did a new coating on it.
234
00:08:49,867 --> 00:08:52,300
But over here, I feel like we'd have to actually
235
00:08:52,300 --> 00:08:56,166
-re-pour concrete and redo this deck. - Yeah.
236
00:08:56,166 --> 00:08:58,867
- One chair. - One chair, one umbrella,
237
00:08:58,867 --> 00:09:02,600
they don't really have the privacy that they'd like in the back there.
238
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,800
It also just feels kind of like a concrete jungle.
239
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,767
-There's no warmth, no texture, -Yes, it's not warm.
240
00:09:06,767 --> 00:09:09,266
Then there's another enclosure back there.
241
00:09:09,266 --> 00:09:11,767
I think it's like the filtration system for the pool.
242
00:09:11,767 --> 00:09:15,266
And they also don't get to use the other side of the space.
243
00:09:15,266 --> 00:09:17,767
-Yeah, that mulch area over there... -Mm-hmm.
244
00:09:17,767 --> 00:09:19,667
...is sort of like a wasteland
245
00:09:19,667 --> 00:09:21,367
because look at the access to the pool.
246
00:09:21,367 --> 00:09:24,700
-That would be amazing... - Yeah, if we could do something with that maybe?
247
00:09:24,700 --> 00:09:27,300
So what could we do to beautify all of this over here?
248
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:30,900
Greg likes Moroccan tile or Spanish tile.
249
00:09:30,900 --> 00:09:32,900
You definitely have an opportunity here.
250
00:09:32,900 --> 00:09:35,200
- Yeah. -I love this surface down below
251
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,967
-which right now is just... let go. -Yeah. It's-- It's... yeah.
252
00:09:37,967 --> 00:09:41,100
You could use a real statement tile along there.
253
00:09:41,100 --> 00:09:43,166
-The top the bull nosing is actually in pretty good shape -Mm-hmm.
254
00:09:43,166 --> 00:09:45,567
-and this could be painted. -Oh, wow. Okay.
255
00:09:45,567 --> 00:09:48,700
-We wouldn't be able to put tile on the... -Not on the wall?
256
00:09:48,700 --> 00:09:51,166
-Just because of some of the cracking and whatnot. -Mm-hmm.
257
00:09:51,166 --> 00:09:53,100
But we could do a screening
258
00:09:53,100 --> 00:09:55,467
-all the way across -And give them some privacy?
259
00:09:55,467 --> 00:09:56,967
Yeah, we can go up even higher.
260
00:09:56,967 --> 00:10:00,400
One thing to keep in mind too is there are a lot of concrete surfaces.
261
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:01,667
You have the cinder block wall.
262
00:10:01,667 --> 00:10:03,900
Maybe we can just warm it up a little bit with some wood--
263
00:10:03,900 --> 00:10:05,467
-To soften it, yeah. -Yeah, soften it, yeah.
264
00:10:05,467 --> 00:10:07,266
-That would be lovely. That would be lovely. -Yeah.
265
00:10:07,266 --> 00:10:09,000
And this is like wasteland.
266
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,467
It's an absolute waste of space
267
00:10:10,467 --> 00:10:11,834
-and this is a lot of square footage. -Yeah.
268
00:10:11,834 --> 00:10:14,600
Imagine if this mirrored the seating over on the other side of the pool.
269
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,367
- Oh! -This could be like 30-40 people
270
00:10:16,367 --> 00:10:17,266
you're entertaining at time.
271
00:10:17,266 --> 00:10:19,600
-We could do like a fire pit. -Yeah.
272
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,567
That's a dance party I want to be at.
273
00:10:21,567 --> 00:10:22,734
I know.
274
00:10:22,734 --> 00:10:24,900
-Show me a little bit of the moon. -Yeah, yeah, how's this?
275
00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:27,767
-Oh! The sexiness on this show-- -Is that right?
276
00:10:27,767 --> 00:10:30,166
- Right.
277
00:10:30,166 --> 00:10:31,300
That's called the Broken Ankie.
278
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:32,867
That's the broken ankie.
279
00:10:32,867 --> 00:10:35,100
After moving the unsightly AC condenser
280
00:10:35,100 --> 00:10:36,567
to the other side of the house,
281
00:10:36,567 --> 00:10:39,367
we'll remove and level off the concrete patio
282
00:10:39,367 --> 00:10:42,967
to fix Greg's drainage issue and eliminate the trip hazard.
283
00:10:42,967 --> 00:10:44,767
Then take the space to fabulous
284
00:10:44,767 --> 00:10:47,166
by resurfacing the concrete deck around the pool
285
00:10:47,166 --> 00:10:49,266
with a special waterproof epoxy.
286
00:10:49,266 --> 00:10:52,300
Resort vibes continue with a large deck off the house
287
00:10:52,300 --> 00:10:54,667
that features a 5-star outdoor kitchen,
288
00:10:54,667 --> 00:10:57,467
chic Quartzite counters with waterfall edges,
289
00:10:57,467 --> 00:10:59,567
two fridges, storage cabinets,
290
00:10:59,567 --> 00:11:03,500
a 5-burner grill and two retractable fabric awnings.
291
00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:06,300
On the other side of the yard, we'll cover the cinder block wall
292
00:11:06,300 --> 00:11:08,467
with the same decking as the dining area,
293
00:11:08,467 --> 00:11:11,166
laid out in a modern horizontal design.
294
00:11:11,166 --> 00:11:13,767
Even the raised flower beds will get a makeover
295
00:11:13,767 --> 00:11:16,467
with artisanal tiles adding detail and color
296
00:11:16,467 --> 00:11:18,667
to the otherwise overlooked part of the garden.
297
00:11:18,667 --> 00:11:20,667
Finally, we'll build a second deck
298
00:11:20,667 --> 00:11:22,567
on the opposite side of the pool.
299
00:11:22,567 --> 00:11:25,800
Unique planter boxes seamlessly built into the fencing
300
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,467
lends a pop of greenery and gives the pool area
301
00:11:28,467 --> 00:11:30,367
the sophisticated look it deserves
302
00:11:30,367 --> 00:11:32,166
while resort style lounge furniture
303
00:11:32,166 --> 00:11:34,800
and a fire bowl adds style and functionality,
304
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,367
making an invite to the pool party at Greg's house
305
00:11:37,367 --> 00:11:39,333
the hottest ticket in town.
306
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,467
So we're gonna do all this in four weeks?
307
00:11:44,467 --> 00:11:46,300
-That's a lot. -That's a lot to do in four weeks. But--
308
00:11:46,300 --> 00:11:47,767
Can you-- Can we do that? Yeah?
309
00:11:47,767 --> 00:11:49,867
-Can you make more excuses for Greg to stay out of town? -Absolutely.
310
00:11:49,867 --> 00:11:52,367
I can send him on all the wild goose hunts you want.
311
00:11:52,367 --> 00:11:55,700
Do you think when we tackle some of the demolition,
312
00:11:55,700 --> 00:11:58,200
because you've got a... a busted up foot,
313
00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,967
do you want us just to get a pool floatie for you
314
00:11:59,967 --> 00:12:02,100
and you can point directions from the pool.
315
00:12:02,100 --> 00:12:04,767
-I prefer to be the man with the sledgehammer. -Okay.
316
00:12:04,767 --> 00:12:06,667
Can I see your sledgehammer in action?
317
00:12:06,667 --> 00:12:08,066
You want to see it? Ready?
318
00:12:08,266 --> 00:12:09,333
Okay.
319
00:12:10,300 --> 00:12:12,667
Whose ass am I going to kick first?
320
00:12:15,567 --> 00:12:17,667
Okay. My demolition move will be the...
321
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:21,700
-Wait. I like that. -Huh? Huh?
322
00:12:21,700 --> 00:12:24,166
That's the sound you make when you hurt your foot again.
323
00:12:25,567 --> 00:12:27,467
I consider Greg to be family
324
00:12:27,467 --> 00:12:30,767
and I'm really grateful to be able to provide this for him.
325
00:12:30,767 --> 00:12:32,166
This will be their oasis.
326
00:12:32,166 --> 00:12:36,667
This will be a place of tranquility, celebration and gathering for them,
327
00:12:36,667 --> 00:12:39,266
and I think, you know, home is everything, man.
328
00:12:39,266 --> 00:12:41,467
So let's start some demo in a couple of days.
329
00:12:41,467 --> 00:12:42,400
-All right? -Let's do it.
330
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:43,300
Oh, wow!
331
00:12:43,300 --> 00:12:44,567
You already broke the stick!

333
00:12:55,100 --> 00:12:56,667
All right, here we go.
334
00:12:56,667 --> 00:12:58,600
Go, go. Excited.
335
00:12:58,600 --> 00:12:59,900
Go back and then tilt it?
336
00:12:59,900 --> 00:13:02,100
-There you go, there you go. -Oh, man.
337
00:13:02,100 --> 00:13:04,500
This is a good condenser so we don't want to damage it.
338
00:13:04,500 --> 00:13:06,300
Well, I can't wait to get it out of here.
339
00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:07,667
-Wait.
340
00:13:07,667 --> 00:13:09,166
-One, two, three. -Tilt. Tilt!
341
00:13:09,166 --> 00:13:12,400
I have wanted to get this thing out of here since I first came here.
342
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,867
That is the perfect spot for a chair or, like,
343
00:13:14,867 --> 00:13:16,667
an outdoor kitchen or just something,
344
00:13:16,667 --> 00:13:18,467
-if not this. -Yes. Yes. Exactly.
345
00:13:18,467 --> 00:13:20,867
Laurence wants to be involved with this entire process.
346
00:13:20,867 --> 00:13:23,667
He wants to smash out the old, bring in the new.
347
00:13:23,667 --> 00:13:25,467
All right. Y'all ready? Let's do it.
348
00:13:25,467 --> 00:13:27,233
- Give it a shot.
349
00:13:28,166 --> 00:13:31,000
I had this little, you know, slip.
350
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,700
I fell down some stairs and fractured one of the bones in my feet
351
00:13:35,700 --> 00:13:37,767
but no, I'm-- I'm bound and determined to, like,
352
00:13:37,767 --> 00:13:40,467
pick up the sledgehammer and crack some cement.
353
00:13:40,467 --> 00:13:43,367
We have to fully rip out this cracked and uneven concrete
354
00:13:43,367 --> 00:13:44,567
so we can level it out
355
00:13:44,567 --> 00:13:45,800
and add proper drainage
356
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,567
just to prevent pooling water
357
00:13:47,567 --> 00:13:49,300
and any further damage to Greg's house.
358
00:13:49,300 --> 00:13:51,800
While this concrete was poured incorrectly for function,
359
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,266
it was poured to last.
360
00:13:53,266 --> 00:13:55,467
Yeah, this stuff is so dense.
361
00:13:55,467 --> 00:13:58,400
So I'm thinking rather than jackhammering for hours,
362
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,166
we'll maybe bring in some slightly heavier machinery to handle it.
363
00:14:01,166 --> 00:14:02,400
But we still have plenty to do,
364
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,066
ripping out those warped deck boards.
365
00:14:06,367 --> 00:14:07,667
Come on you!
366
00:14:08,867 --> 00:14:10,066
But I like, you know,
367
00:14:10,066 --> 00:14:12,634
I like the... the deck thing.
368
00:14:16,100 --> 00:14:19,000
These deck boards are old and warped and they need to come up.
369
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,867
But the substructure is actually in pretty good shape.
370
00:14:20,867 --> 00:14:23,200
So I'm thinking we use that to support our new deck
371
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,166
which will be almost double the size.
372
00:14:25,166 --> 00:14:27,467
Yeah, you can't entertain properly outdoors without a grill,
373
00:14:27,467 --> 00:14:30,467
and in this outdoor kitchen, we'll offer that and a whole lot more.
374
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,567
It's a lot of labor.
375
00:14:33,567 --> 00:14:35,667
Yeah, this is like hard work.
376
00:14:35,667 --> 00:14:37,467
And then on the other side of the pool,
377
00:14:37,467 --> 00:14:40,467
we're adding a second deck to mirror this one.
378
00:14:40,467 --> 00:14:41,700
This is the easy demo.
379
00:14:41,700 --> 00:14:43,500
This is the fun stuff.
380
00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:45,700
Beats shoveling elephant dung.
381
00:14:45,700 --> 00:14:48,000
-That, and Jonathan has done that once. -Which I've also done.
382
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,967
A prerequisite for being in show business.
383
00:14:51,233 --> 00:14:53,367
When people are talking about the glamorous side of show business,
384
00:14:53,367 --> 00:14:54,433
this is what they're talking about.
385
00:14:54,433 --> 00:14:56,066
That's exactly what they're talking about.
386
00:14:56,066 --> 00:14:57,967
So what's this going to look like, we think?
387
00:14:57,967 --> 00:15:00,767
Well, I think the continuity of the decking material
388
00:15:00,767 --> 00:15:02,667
to the eating area and over here
389
00:15:02,667 --> 00:15:04,567
is gonna add a real nice element
390
00:15:04,567 --> 00:15:07,266
-because you'll have that same tone pulling through. -Right.
391
00:15:07,266 --> 00:15:09,700
But I have, like, once the screening is in here...
392
00:15:09,700 --> 00:15:12,166
-Mm-hmm. -...the deck's down, the fire pit,
393
00:15:12,166 --> 00:15:15,400
I feel like high end hotel vibes.
394
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,266
-Yes. -So that's the goal
395
00:15:17,266 --> 00:15:19,867
because this is such a great area to lounge here.
396
00:15:19,867 --> 00:15:21,967
You get a little toasty, jump in the pool.
397
00:15:21,967 --> 00:15:22,967
Exactly, yeah.
398
00:15:22,967 --> 00:15:25,100
So I thought this was irrigation
399
00:15:25,100 --> 00:15:28,000
-but this might actually be their yard power. -Yeah.
400
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,467
-It goes into the pool. - Oh, yeah.
401
00:15:29,467 --> 00:15:31,200
Jon, do you want to shovel a bit more?
402
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,166
Laurence, if you want to help me, we can cut that out.
403
00:15:33,166 --> 00:15:34,967
- We can cut it out? -Well, it's a waste.
404
00:15:34,967 --> 00:15:36,767
Don't have to tell me twice.
405
00:15:37,900 --> 00:15:40,367
The fencing around the pool equipment is old and worn out.
406
00:15:42,767 --> 00:15:44,300
Can I just point out that you're done
407
00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:45,767
and I'm still on the top plate?
408
00:15:45,767 --> 00:15:47,166
Well, what you waiting on, man? Let's go!
409
00:15:47,166 --> 00:15:49,400
What is happening over there? Drew!
410
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,266
You're embarrassing yourself!
411
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,400
You know what? Hold on, hold on.
412
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,500
I'm gonna come to the back side and just kick.
413
00:15:56,500 --> 00:15:57,900
Okay, let's kick.
414
00:15:57,900 --> 00:16:00,967
We want our new fencing to also match the new deck boards
415
00:16:00,967 --> 00:16:03,066
so the overall aesthetic of this would be the same.
416
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,166
Would you expect any less from a guy who actually has
417
00:16:08,166 --> 00:16:09,667
a martial arts background?
418
00:16:09,667 --> 00:16:12,000
-What? -I can't even get my wall down
419
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,867
and you've completely destroyed yours.
420
00:16:13,867 --> 00:16:15,600
Get it down!
421
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,300
What kind of contractor are you, dude?
422
00:16:17,300 --> 00:16:18,900
-Oh, man. -Drew, you're fired!
423
00:16:18,900 --> 00:16:20,700
-Teach me! -Laurence, you're hired.
424
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,166
Laurence Fishburne keeps getting cooler.
425
00:16:24,166 --> 00:16:27,000
You don't even need me here so I'll just leave you to pick this up.
426
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,066
I got it, I got it.
427
00:16:28,066 --> 00:16:29,100
I'm gonna have a Mai Tai.
428
00:16:38,066 --> 00:16:39,867
Laurence dominated demolition
429
00:16:39,867 --> 00:16:42,266
but we need to call in a bigger crew and heavier machinery
430
00:16:42,266 --> 00:16:43,667
to break through this concrete.
431
00:16:43,667 --> 00:16:45,333
It's thick and we need to haul it out.
432
00:16:48,500 --> 00:16:49,867
With the old concrete out,
433
00:16:49,867 --> 00:16:52,667
we're putting in all the drainage lines that will properly
434
00:16:52,667 --> 00:16:55,667
pull that water away from the house.
435
00:16:55,667 --> 00:16:58,867
And we're moving that massive AC condenser around the corner.
436
00:16:58,867 --> 00:17:01,000
With that finished, we're pumping in the new concrete
437
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,567
to build a pad with stairs and drainage channels
438
00:17:03,567 --> 00:17:05,367
to move that water away from the house.
439
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,467
And while that new concrete dries,
440
00:17:09,467 --> 00:17:11,900
we need to make some decisions on finishes.
441
00:17:11,900 --> 00:17:13,100
All right, design time.
442
00:17:13,100 --> 00:17:15,266
-I feel like we're having a picnic here or something. -Yes.
443
00:17:15,266 --> 00:17:17,467
I didn't bring anything delicious, unfortunately.
444
00:17:17,467 --> 00:17:18,600
That looks pretty tasty.
445
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,266
I mean, it's chewy.
446
00:17:20,266 --> 00:17:21,600
It looks very tasty.
447
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,100
-We are cooking up something. -Yeah, yeah.
448
00:17:23,100 --> 00:17:24,900
Greg and I have similar taste.
449
00:17:24,900 --> 00:17:27,467
I think there's an interior designer that lives in me
450
00:17:27,467 --> 00:17:28,567
that's trying to get out.
451
00:17:28,567 --> 00:17:29,767
This is for the deck?
452
00:17:29,767 --> 00:17:32,200
-This is a deck resurfacing material. -Okay.
453
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,166
The new concrete will never match the look
454
00:17:34,166 --> 00:17:36,100
of the existing concrete around the pool.
455
00:17:36,100 --> 00:17:39,066
So we're gonna resurface all of it with a special epoxy
456
00:17:39,066 --> 00:17:40,266
that goes on like paint.
457
00:17:40,266 --> 00:17:42,700
When it's done, it has this real elegant finish to it.
458
00:17:42,700 --> 00:17:43,900
Okay.
459
00:17:43,900 --> 00:17:45,667
And this will complement the blue really nicely.
460
00:17:45,667 --> 00:17:47,467
-Yeah. -The challenge they have right now,
461
00:17:47,467 --> 00:17:49,700
because they have something kind of similar to this,
462
00:17:49,700 --> 00:17:51,567
but the problem is, with the blue,
463
00:17:51,567 --> 00:17:54,066
-it doesn't feel like a perfect match. -No, it doesn't.
464
00:17:54,066 --> 00:17:55,767
-This would feel like... -That feels like--
465
00:17:55,767 --> 00:17:57,667
-a striking... -It feels like it pops. for me.
466
00:17:57,667 --> 00:17:58,767
-Yeah. -Yeah.
467
00:17:58,767 --> 00:18:01,800
Probably the most important decision because
468
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,467
originally I was thinking we match the decking
469
00:18:04,467 --> 00:18:06,166
-where the eating area is. -Mm-hmm.
470
00:18:06,166 --> 00:18:08,667
But I feel like there's something cool that could happen
471
00:18:08,667 --> 00:18:11,166
if we take that same material right up the wall
472
00:18:11,166 --> 00:18:13,200
-and create our horizontal slab. -Oh!
473
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,467
-So, with, with the deck material? -Yeah.
474
00:18:15,467 --> 00:18:18,100
-That sounds really clutch. I like that. -Yeah?
475
00:18:18,100 --> 00:18:20,333
-What feels more like Greg? -The warmest?
476
00:18:21,166 --> 00:18:25,066
Well, I'm gonna say it's either this one...
477
00:18:26,166 --> 00:18:28,367
-or it's this one but it's probably that one. -Okay.
478
00:18:28,367 --> 00:18:31,367
-Yeah. -We're gonna take that right up to do the screening
479
00:18:31,367 --> 00:18:34,867
and then we're gonna get in as much greenery as we can to break things up.
480
00:18:34,867 --> 00:18:38,000
There's also an opportunity to do a really cool tile
481
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,100
along that one garden wall...
482
00:18:40,100 --> 00:18:41,266
-Oh! -Yeah. Exactly.
483
00:18:41,266 --> 00:18:43,367
-Ooh la la. -Back wall, we have some different... samples.
484
00:18:43,367 --> 00:18:44,867
This is lovely color.
485
00:18:44,867 --> 00:18:46,266
Look at that. Wow.
486
00:18:46,266 --> 00:18:47,500
It feels really Spanish.
487
00:18:47,500 --> 00:18:49,467
And Greg loves Spanish.
488
00:18:49,467 --> 00:18:51,066
Wow. This is going faster than I thought.
489
00:18:51,066 --> 00:18:53,266
-Well... -Are you always pretty quick at making decisions?
490
00:18:53,266 --> 00:18:56,100
-Or are you like a thoughtful slow... -I'm intuitive.
491
00:18:56,100 --> 00:18:57,300
So when I see it, I know it.
492
00:18:57,300 --> 00:19:00,300
There's a lot of sun that comes down on this yard
493
00:19:00,300 --> 00:19:01,467
so we're adding a couple of awnings
494
00:19:01,467 --> 00:19:03,066
to make sure that they have that shelter
495
00:19:03,066 --> 00:19:05,066
or even if it's raining, they could put it up
496
00:19:05,066 --> 00:19:07,066
and still use their outdoor space.
497
00:19:07,066 --> 00:19:10,300
For the awning, I do feel like the darker color...
498
00:19:10,300 --> 00:19:11,400
-That's the strongest one? -Yeah?
499
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,166
Because otherwise, it's gonna be a lot of matchy matchy
500
00:19:13,166 --> 00:19:15,166
with the deck resurfacing material.
501
00:19:15,166 --> 00:19:16,166
I see. Okay.
502
00:19:16,166 --> 00:19:17,667
So if we go with something like that,
503
00:19:17,667 --> 00:19:19,266
-it makes a statement. - Mm-hmm.
504
00:19:19,266 --> 00:19:23,567
We can go anywhere we want in here with the materials on the actual furniture.
505
00:19:23,567 --> 00:19:25,166
I'm loving this, I'm loving that.
506
00:19:25,166 --> 00:19:27,367
-I think he'll like either of those two. -Of these two here?
507
00:19:27,367 --> 00:19:29,500
And I leave it to you and your team to make the final decision.
508
00:19:29,500 --> 00:19:32,100
-Okay. Sounds good. I like that. -Yes. Yes.
509
00:19:32,100 --> 00:19:34,400
So let me start to piece together kind of how we see this.
510
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:35,767
Okay, let's see.
511
00:19:35,767 --> 00:19:40,667
-So we see something here. Something in this room. -Hmm! Look at that.
512
00:19:40,667 --> 00:19:43,200
We see the deck resurfacing material
513
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,700
which is gonna be pretty nice.
514
00:19:44,700 --> 00:19:46,900
- Okay. I love that. -You said you liked this tile.
515
00:19:46,900 --> 00:19:49,100
I know that Greg and Jill
516
00:19:49,100 --> 00:19:51,000
love to have people over.
517
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,700
The mirrored decks are just gonna make
518
00:19:53,700 --> 00:19:55,800
this whole thing feel so cozy
519
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,000
and so, like, comfortable and warm.
520
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,700
You're gonna want to lounge out here and decompress
521
00:20:01,700 --> 00:20:03,567
and enjoy your family and your friends.
522
00:20:04,266 --> 00:20:05,433
Ooh!
523
00:20:07,767 --> 00:20:08,967
You like it?
524
00:20:10,266 --> 00:20:13,066
I like... that.
525
00:20:13,066 --> 00:20:14,867
-Okay. -That's much sexier to me.
526
00:20:14,867 --> 00:20:17,100
-All right. That is pretty sexy. -Yeah.
527
00:20:17,100 --> 00:20:18,066
This is incredible.
528
00:20:18,066 --> 00:20:20,166
-Well done, sir. -Hold on, Let me just get that.
529
00:20:20,166 --> 00:20:21,867
-Yeah, you got that, huh? Perfect. -I got that.
530
00:20:21,867 --> 00:20:23,634
-There you go.
531
00:20:32,467 --> 00:20:34,667
Week one demo went even faster than we expected,
532
00:20:34,667 --> 00:20:37,000
so we are flying into week two a little ahead of schedule
533
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,133
and we are ready to begin construction.
534
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,166
Since we love to reduce waste,
535
00:20:42,166 --> 00:20:43,600
we're using the original joists
536
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,867
and expanding the deck another 20 square feet
537
00:20:45,867 --> 00:20:48,133
to accommodate the new outdoor kitchen and dining area.
538
00:20:52,266 --> 00:20:53,667
And on the other side of the pool,
539
00:20:53,667 --> 00:20:56,066
we're building our deck from scratch on what will become
540
00:20:56,066 --> 00:20:58,767
Greg and Jill's luxurious new lounge area.
541
00:21:00,667 --> 00:21:04,266
We want this outdoor oasis to give off hotel resort type vibes
542
00:21:04,266 --> 00:21:06,767
so we're adding details like cutouts on both the decks
543
00:21:06,767 --> 00:21:08,367
where we'll plant some ornamental grass
544
00:21:08,367 --> 00:21:09,934
for a chic and unique look.
545
00:21:11,367 --> 00:21:12,867
Laurence is in Ireland with Greg.
546
00:21:12,867 --> 00:21:14,700
So the ruse continues to pay off
547
00:21:14,700 --> 00:21:16,467
but he keeps texting and reminding us
548
00:21:16,467 --> 00:21:18,967
that in just two short weeks, Greg will be back
549
00:21:18,967 --> 00:21:21,233
so we need to keep the speed of this build going.
550
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,066
All righty. Okay.
551
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:28,300
How cool is this?
552
00:21:28,300 --> 00:21:29,834
It's time to bring the bling.
553
00:21:29,834 --> 00:21:33,500
Yeah, these state-of-the-art awnings scream vacation resort chic.
554
00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:35,100
You just like anything that has a remote.
555
00:21:35,100 --> 00:21:37,100
-Yeah, no. That's totally true. -Mm.
556
00:21:37,100 --> 00:21:38,066
Hold up, yeah.
557
00:21:38,066 --> 00:21:39,800
These are a heavy beast.
558
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,667
And lucky for us, we have Jose
559
00:21:41,667 --> 00:21:44,133
lending a hand and his expertise today.
560
00:21:44,567 --> 00:21:46,667
-Good? -Yeah.
561
00:21:46,667 --> 00:21:48,567
This is gonna transform everything for them.
562
00:21:48,567 --> 00:21:50,600
They were talking about how challenging it was
563
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,300
because there's no shade ever.
564
00:21:52,300 --> 00:21:53,667
-Oh, I know. -Right here.
565
00:21:53,667 --> 00:21:56,300
Feel like it's gonna shift back a hair on me here.
566
00:21:56,300 --> 00:21:57,600
- There we go. -Yeah.
567
00:21:59,367 --> 00:22:01,767
This area of Greg's yard gets a lot of sun.
568
00:22:01,767 --> 00:22:04,100
Smaller umbrellas would not have given sufficient shade
569
00:22:04,100 --> 00:22:06,667
while pergolas in a tight space like this would have been awkward.
570
00:22:06,667 --> 00:22:09,867
Yeah. And so not only do we have the fun remote control aspect
571
00:22:09,867 --> 00:22:12,867
but we also have this all-in-one sunshade solution.
572
00:22:12,867 --> 00:22:14,667
-Okay. -Work your magic.
573
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,100
- This is great. -Yeah.
574
00:22:22,100 --> 00:22:25,367
I love how substantial these feel. It's... it's not flimsy.
575
00:22:25,367 --> 00:22:28,367
It's a solid cover and again, it's gonna cover the entire area.
576
00:22:28,367 --> 00:22:30,100
When you're barbecuing out here, you don't want to be sitting
577
00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:31,767
with that glaring sun right in your face.
578
00:22:31,767 --> 00:22:34,100
No, and apparently, the height of this is perfect
579
00:22:34,100 --> 00:22:35,967
so it'll be fine for the grill.
580
00:22:35,967 --> 00:22:38,367
The awning fabric has a special coating
581
00:22:38,367 --> 00:22:40,467
that is gonna help it last a long time.
582
00:22:40,467 --> 00:22:43,567
It's not gonna fade, and it already feels a few degrees cooler.
583
00:22:43,567 --> 00:22:46,800
So it's going to stay cool and stay looking good for a long time.
584
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,567
At this time of day especially, it is so hot over here.
585
00:22:50,567 --> 00:22:51,467
This is what they needed.
586
00:22:51,467 --> 00:22:53,266
How many of these have you installed, Jose?
587
00:22:53,266 --> 00:22:54,367
-Thousands, yes. - Oh, my gosh.
588
00:22:54,367 --> 00:22:55,800
-Yeah. - Wow.
589
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,066
The awning is gonna make this outdoor kitchen and dining area
590
00:22:58,066 --> 00:23:00,066
even more elegant for entertaining.
591
00:23:00,066 --> 00:23:01,667
Yes, and speaking of the kitchen,
592
00:23:01,667 --> 00:23:03,400
there are still a few other things we have to figure out
593
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,200
before we can give the fabricator the final plans.
594
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,700
With a barbecue, you can't have
595
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:11,500
a surface right above where the smoke and everything comes up.
596
00:23:11,500 --> 00:23:13,000
I feel this is too low.
597
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,066
That's the exact conversation I've been having.
598
00:23:15,066 --> 00:23:17,967
So our company who's doing the outdoor grill for us,
599
00:23:17,967 --> 00:23:20,867
they said that the smoke is all going to get trapped in here
600
00:23:20,867 --> 00:23:22,867
and it's going to cause problems.
601
00:23:22,867 --> 00:23:27,867
We can either install a big hood in here, essentially
602
00:23:27,867 --> 00:23:29,600
and then we'd have to poke through the roof
603
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,400
and have a cap out there and then it starts to be like,
604
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,667
"Well, is that gonna interfere with the awning..."
605
00:23:34,667 --> 00:23:37,667
-What are we gonna do? -So the only thing I can think of
606
00:23:37,667 --> 00:23:40,266
that would potentially resolve that issue,
607
00:23:40,266 --> 00:23:42,667
shift it over and do like an L-shape
608
00:23:42,667 --> 00:23:44,300
and then smoke can escape.
609
00:23:44,300 --> 00:23:46,266
We basically have the grill here,
610
00:23:46,266 --> 00:23:48,367
all this, perhaps, space over here,
611
00:23:48,367 --> 00:23:49,900
still have the dining table.
612
00:23:49,900 --> 00:23:50,967
What's on the backside?
613
00:23:50,967 --> 00:23:52,166
Are you gonna have, like, some overhanging,
614
00:23:52,166 --> 00:23:53,166
like some stools or something?
615
00:23:53,166 --> 00:23:55,166
I don't think anybody's gonna sit over here.
616
00:23:55,166 --> 00:23:57,467
If the grill is here, there-- you're opening the grill in their face.
617
00:23:57,467 --> 00:23:59,200
So I think this is just the backside
618
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,900
where they'll have storage and stuff like that.
619
00:24:00,900 --> 00:24:04,100
The only other option would be to do a bunch of roof work
620
00:24:04,100 --> 00:24:05,500
and cut back this eve.
621
00:24:05,500 --> 00:24:07,467
-But then that wouldn't match anything else. -No.
622
00:24:07,467 --> 00:24:09,000
I mean, I don't know about the roof work
623
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:10,667
but if we can actually have a little bit of storage
624
00:24:10,667 --> 00:24:13,600
or something over here, that makes it purposeful so, okay.
625
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,900
And you know, with the awnings in,
626
00:24:15,900 --> 00:24:18,467
they are gonna be using this all the time.
627
00:24:18,467 --> 00:24:19,533
Everyday.
628
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,567
Ready for the next one.
629
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,400
Good on my side.
630
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,100
Yeah, I'm pretty good here.
631
00:24:33,100 --> 00:24:36,200
The same boards we used on the two decks will also go up horizontally
632
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,900
to cover that sterile cinderblock wall,
633
00:24:38,900 --> 00:24:41,200
adding an additional foot of privacy
634
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,767
and just a little bit of a cohesive elegance to the entire space.
635
00:24:44,767 --> 00:24:46,667
Compared to what this looked like before,
636
00:24:46,667 --> 00:24:50,100
like it was just sort of like desert wastelands and prison walls...
637
00:24:50,100 --> 00:24:52,600
-What? -And you walk out here and any of the wood
638
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,600
that was here, you're getting a sliver, you're hurting your foot.
639
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,467
The composite product is soft on the feet,
640
00:24:57,467 --> 00:24:58,900
it's nice, it's gonna last longer,
641
00:24:58,900 --> 00:25:01,533
but the style, even having the planters out here is so awesome.
642
00:25:03,667 --> 00:25:05,100
Hi!
643
00:25:05,100 --> 00:25:07,667
I apologize that we're giving more barrier.
644
00:25:07,667 --> 00:25:10,100
You won't get to see me anymore.
645
00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:11,100
Nice to meet you.
646
00:25:11,100 --> 00:25:12,800
The four planter boxes we've added
647
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,667
are built into the fence at different heights,
648
00:25:14,667 --> 00:25:16,967
allowing the greenery to visually break up the wall
649
00:25:16,967 --> 00:25:19,066
and it acts as a backdrop for our new lounge area.
650
00:25:20,166 --> 00:25:21,166
Okay.
651
00:25:21,166 --> 00:25:23,266
Everything about this space, you're capturing
652
00:25:23,266 --> 00:25:26,533
what was complete dead space and turning it into an awesome destination.
653
00:25:35,166 --> 00:25:37,667
While the deck crew continues on the wall fencing,
654
00:25:37,667 --> 00:25:40,166
the rest of the team is concentrating on more of those
655
00:25:40,166 --> 00:25:42,433
resort worthy design details.
656
00:25:44,266 --> 00:25:47,367
Outdoor lighting installed in the flowerbeds and the decks
657
00:25:47,367 --> 00:25:50,266
will allow for pool parties by day or night,
658
00:25:50,266 --> 00:25:53,700
and the ceramic Spanish-inspired tile on the garden retaining wall
659
00:25:53,700 --> 00:25:54,867
is gonna look amazing too.
660
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:01,467
That coupled with the light bright pool surround sealant
661
00:26:01,467 --> 00:26:04,233
will give this modern oasis a Mediterranean flair.
662
00:26:05,467 --> 00:26:07,867
The pool deck itself is actually in great shape.
663
00:26:07,867 --> 00:26:09,367
What I don't like is the difference between
664
00:26:09,367 --> 00:26:12,367
the new concrete we poured and the old stuff.
665
00:26:12,367 --> 00:26:15,700
So when this is done, it'll all look like it was poured at the same time.
666
00:26:15,700 --> 00:26:18,567
Unlike some of the concrete we had to rip out completely,
667
00:26:18,567 --> 00:26:20,467
you don't always have to remove the concrete.
668
00:26:20,467 --> 00:26:23,667
If it's just sort of hairline cracks or discoloration,
669
00:26:23,667 --> 00:26:27,166
you can resurface it and a material like this is perfect because
670
00:26:27,166 --> 00:26:29,166
when this is all done, it will all match,
671
00:26:29,166 --> 00:26:31,367
and it will all look brand new.
672
00:26:31,367 --> 00:26:33,867
The finished product actually has a moisture barrier in it as well
673
00:26:33,867 --> 00:26:35,100
and it's kind of pliable.
674
00:26:35,100 --> 00:26:38,000
So you're not gonna have the same vulnerabilities to cracking
675
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,967
as you would with the traditional concrete surface.
676
00:26:41,700 --> 00:26:43,867
Can you imagine Greg and Jill coming out here,
677
00:26:43,867 --> 00:26:47,066
seeing their new backyard with the decking, the lighter color
678
00:26:47,066 --> 00:26:49,567
-which is more stylish than what they had before? -Yeah.
679
00:26:49,567 --> 00:26:51,266
Well, this is gonna be way more comfortable on the feet too
680
00:26:51,266 --> 00:26:54,667
because it's gonna be nice and smooth but it still has that texture
681
00:26:54,667 --> 00:26:55,767
where it's not gonna be slippery.
682
00:26:55,767 --> 00:26:57,100
-It's just gonna be comfy. -Yeah.
683
00:26:57,100 --> 00:26:58,333
I'm gonna mix another bucket.
684
00:27:00,667 --> 00:27:01,834
Showstopper.
685
00:27:10,300 --> 00:27:12,567
-Help!
686
00:27:12,567 --> 00:27:14,467
-Don't... break it! -I don't want to damage it.
687
00:27:14,467 --> 00:27:15,667
No damage allowed.
688
00:27:15,667 --> 00:27:18,266
There's a big outdoor kitchen.
689
00:27:18,266 --> 00:27:20,266
Sometimes, it takes lots of muscle
690
00:27:20,266 --> 00:27:22,567
to get these pieces into the yard.
691
00:27:23,900 --> 00:27:26,300
-But you don't have to go to the gym today. -That's right.
692
00:27:26,300 --> 00:27:28,200
-This is the workout. -Yeah.
693
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,667
Okay, hold on. Uh, very gentle on this edge here.
694
00:27:30,667 --> 00:27:32,033
Okay.
695
00:27:32,033 --> 00:27:35,100
At least it's in two pieces. It'd be impossible if it was in one piece.
696
00:27:35,100 --> 00:27:36,133
These things are so massive.
697
00:27:36,133 --> 00:27:39,266
But I love how it pieces together, bolts together.
698
00:27:39,266 --> 00:27:42,266
Then when the stone is complete and all the facade,
699
00:27:42,266 --> 00:27:45,767
everything will be beautiful once the appliances go in.
700
00:27:47,667 --> 00:27:49,467
Let's just throw it up here for a second.
701
00:27:49,467 --> 00:27:51,166
Get all this cardboard off and stuff.
702
00:27:51,166 --> 00:27:52,834
-Oh! My phone's ringing.
703
00:27:53,500 --> 00:27:54,467
Oh, no, it's your phone.
704
00:27:54,467 --> 00:27:55,667
-Your phone, I believe. -My phone?
705
00:27:55,667 --> 00:27:57,867
Oh! Is that me? Oh, that's me.
706
00:27:57,867 --> 00:27:59,433
Oh! It's Laurence. One second.
707
00:28:00,567 --> 00:28:02,266
Hey! How you doing?
708
00:28:02,266 --> 00:28:04,500
-How are you? -I am good.
709
00:28:04,500 --> 00:28:05,667
I'm here with Jonathan.
710
00:28:05,667 --> 00:28:07,166
How's it going? How's it going?
711
00:28:07,166 --> 00:28:08,200
- Oh, my gosh. - Oh!
712
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:09,367
It looks so good.
713
00:28:09,367 --> 00:28:10,367
Look at this. Hold on.
714
00:28:10,367 --> 00:28:11,600
This is the barbecue.
715
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,200
-All right. -Ooh!
716
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,533
Ooh!
717
00:28:16,367 --> 00:28:18,867
-Look at this. - Whoa.
718
00:28:18,867 --> 00:28:20,667
Oh, my God. Look at that.
719
00:28:20,667 --> 00:28:24,567
But the greatest thing, because it has been so hot working out here,
720
00:28:24,567 --> 00:28:28,367
-the awning all the way across.
721
00:28:28,367 --> 00:28:29,667
The awning is all automated.
722
00:28:29,667 --> 00:28:31,066
Oh, my God.
723
00:28:32,166 --> 00:28:33,867
Guys! Yes!
724
00:28:33,867 --> 00:28:36,200
Do that dance! Do that dance!
725
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,100
How much longer you filming in Dublin?
726
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:40,467
Uh, I've got another...
727
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,200
...three or four days and then I'll head back.
728
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:45,667
-Awesome. -Maybe?
729
00:28:45,667 --> 00:28:47,900
But I'll be there for the... I'll be there for the big reveal.
730
00:28:47,900 --> 00:28:49,266
-I'm excited. - Oh, yeah.
731
00:28:49,266 --> 00:28:51,467
Yeah. Well, it'll be nice too because we've got assembling furniture,
732
00:28:51,467 --> 00:28:53,166
getting it unpacked, getting it placed
733
00:28:53,166 --> 00:28:54,667
-so we can use help with all that. -All right. Okay.
734
00:28:54,667 --> 00:28:57,166
But we haven't finished closing in all the pool equipment yet
735
00:28:57,166 --> 00:28:59,800
so when you get back here, we can do that with you, yeah?
736
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:01,500
-Oh, wonderful. -How's your foot?
737
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:03,166
Oh, my God. Better.
738
00:29:03,166 --> 00:29:04,867
I can walk like a man now.
739
00:29:04,867 --> 00:29:06,033
- Ah, good!
740
00:29:06,033 --> 00:29:07,767
-Oh, you got your shoe back on, that's good, yeah. -Yeah.
741
00:29:07,767 --> 00:29:09,367
I think Laurence Fishburne's voice
742
00:29:09,367 --> 00:29:10,900
is in the back of my head at all times
743
00:29:10,900 --> 00:29:13,967
because he has that bass-y... energy.
744
00:29:13,967 --> 00:29:14,900
Get it done.
745
00:29:14,900 --> 00:29:16,266
You guys are killing it.
746
00:29:16,266 --> 00:29:19,700
That outdoor space just alone is like...
747
00:29:19,700 --> 00:29:23,100
I just-- I just want a frosty Paralyzer in my hand
748
00:29:23,100 --> 00:29:24,867
-and kick my feet up.
749
00:29:24,867 --> 00:29:26,500
-It'll happen soon enough. -Uh, hold on a second.
750
00:29:26,500 --> 00:29:28,433
It should be a big glass of Guinness
751
00:29:28,867 --> 00:29:29,934
where you are right now.
752
00:29:29,934 --> 00:29:32,100
-That's just more appropriate. - That's it.
753
00:29:32,100 --> 00:29:33,100
We miss you.
754
00:29:33,100 --> 00:29:34,367
We look forward to you coming back
755
00:29:34,367 --> 00:29:36,266
and finishing this up with us.
756
00:29:36,266 --> 00:29:39,066
Well, guys, thank you. Thank you for keeping me in the loop
757
00:29:39,066 --> 00:29:42,166
and for doing such an amazing job.
758
00:29:42,166 --> 00:29:44,867
It means so much when it's for somebody that you love.
759
00:29:44,867 --> 00:29:46,867
- Yeah. -Well it's our pleasure.
760
00:29:46,867 --> 00:29:48,700
-Safe travels. -Will do.
761
00:29:48,700 --> 00:29:50,734
- Yeah, we'll talk to you soon. Bye! -Yes.
762
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,800
Gregory, my man.
763
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,100
-What's this? -Don't worry about that.
764
00:29:55,100 --> 00:29:56,567
They're not even here.
765
00:29:56,567 --> 00:29:57,900
Okay! Where we going? We're going this way?
766
00:29:57,900 --> 00:30:00,000
We're going this way. We're gonna go this way. Come on.
767
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,100
-Whoa! -Right this way.
768
00:30:02,100 --> 00:30:03,867
- Oh, my God! -Oh, my God!
769
00:30:10,467 --> 00:30:12,834
I'm loving the way that this looks now.
770
00:30:13,266 --> 00:30:14,667
Come on, baby.
771
00:30:14,667 --> 00:30:15,700
You know what I like?
772
00:30:15,700 --> 00:30:16,900
-Yeah? -A lot of people that will come in,
773
00:30:16,900 --> 00:30:18,867
-they come in and all of a sudden, they--
774
00:30:18,867 --> 00:30:21,266
It's like they go super strong and then they scratch the face.
775
00:30:21,266 --> 00:30:22,567
Yeah. Yeah.
776
00:30:22,567 --> 00:30:23,967
Ooh, we are getting close.
777
00:30:23,967 --> 00:30:25,133
Laurence snuck away early
778
00:30:25,133 --> 00:30:28,100
but Greg is still in Ireland, finishing up his "Assignment."
779
00:30:28,100 --> 00:30:30,567
He still has absolutely no idea what Laurence is up to.
780
00:30:30,567 --> 00:30:32,567
You know what? I think it's your martial arts mind.
781
00:30:32,567 --> 00:30:34,867
-It must be. -Because you-- you're calm.
782
00:30:34,867 --> 00:30:36,400
-Yes. -You approach the situation
783
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:37,867
and you ease into it with power.
784
00:30:37,867 --> 00:30:39,367
That's right.
785
00:30:39,367 --> 00:30:40,934
There you go, baby.
786
00:30:42,367 --> 00:30:43,567
-So-- -And we enclose this
787
00:30:43,567 --> 00:30:46,100
-and it becomes part of the thing. -Yeah, you can--
788
00:30:46,100 --> 00:30:49,100
-You can still access it from the back easily. -Okay, cool.
789
00:30:49,100 --> 00:30:50,500
But at least it gives you a little barrier
790
00:30:50,500 --> 00:30:52,300
and also gives a bit of a sound barrier... so.
791
00:30:52,300 --> 00:30:53,500
Yes, exactly.
792
00:30:53,500 --> 00:30:54,967
So I want to go low?
793
00:30:54,967 --> 00:30:55,967
Yeah, yeah.
794
00:30:56,767 --> 00:30:58,400
This is good.
795
00:30:59,867 --> 00:31:02,667
We're continuing to use the same composite decking around the pool equipment
796
00:31:02,667 --> 00:31:04,667
that we use for the decks and on the perimeter wall.
797
00:31:04,667 --> 00:31:05,800
-Perfection. -Hey!
798
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,266
-Look at that. -Whoo-hoo!
799
00:31:07,266 --> 00:31:09,166
-Right so... -Let's see how you do.
800
00:31:09,700 --> 00:31:11,800
-This? -Oh!
801
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:13,000
-That the spot? -Perfect.
802
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:14,400
-All right! -Perfect, yeah.
803
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,600
-Let's get it in. - Sexy!
804
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,400
Sun is going down, our plants are going in
805
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,767
and our sleek fire bowl just arrived.
806
00:31:21,767 --> 00:31:25,667
All the design details are going to make this staycation a destination.
807
00:31:31,867 --> 00:31:33,600
Hey, wait a second. Ready for this?
808
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,367
-Ooh! - Huh?
809
00:31:35,367 --> 00:31:37,667
-I don't know. Am I ready for this?
810
00:31:41,767 --> 00:31:43,066
-All right. -You kidding me.
811
00:31:43,066 --> 00:31:44,166
Slow and dramatic.
812
00:31:45,266 --> 00:31:48,000
-There we go. -This is magnificent.
813
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:49,000
I love it.
814
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,500
You can tell Laurence is a detail guy
815
00:31:51,500 --> 00:31:53,166
just by how much he appreciates
816
00:31:53,166 --> 00:31:56,967
that we catered this design to how he told us Greg uses the space.
817
00:31:56,967 --> 00:31:59,500
-Let's bring the sofa in. How's your ankle? - All right.
818
00:31:59,500 --> 00:32:00,667
You know what?
819
00:32:00,667 --> 00:32:02,367
Really good, much better.
820
00:32:02,367 --> 00:32:04,900
I still have to wear the orthopedic shoes for about a week.
821
00:32:04,900 --> 00:32:07,367
Did you tell your doctor that you kicked down a wall?
822
00:32:07,367 --> 00:32:09,100
-Absolutely. -And what did he say?
823
00:32:09,100 --> 00:32:10,700
He was like, "Really?"
824
00:32:10,700 --> 00:32:12,000
"Man, you should have seen me.
825
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,166
I was kicking all kinds of walls."
826
00:32:16,166 --> 00:32:18,400
Where's the propane tank for this?
827
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,367
-So our table... right there. -Oh, wow!
828
00:32:21,367 --> 00:32:23,100
And so it goes down under the deck.
829
00:32:23,100 --> 00:32:24,166
-Right here. -Okay.
830
00:32:24,166 --> 00:32:25,467
Pops up over there.
831
00:32:25,467 --> 00:32:27,367
-So no one would even ever know.
832
00:32:27,367 --> 00:32:29,467
-They don't even know it's there. -It's there.
833
00:32:29,467 --> 00:32:30,767
Laurence is like an excited kid.
834
00:32:30,767 --> 00:32:33,000
It feels like you just want to jump in the pool right now.
835
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,100
A little pop.
836
00:32:34,100 --> 00:32:36,567
Everywhere he looks, he sees these luxurious features.
837
00:32:36,567 --> 00:32:38,600
-This is a huge table. -Yes.
838
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,567
And really, really very sexy too.
839
00:32:42,567 --> 00:32:45,166
He knows Greg is absolutely gonna love it.
840
00:32:45,166 --> 00:32:49,767
-So what's the plan? -I'm gonna surprise him with a... a little whiskey.
841
00:32:49,767 --> 00:32:51,467
You know, I kind of got him into Japanese whiskey.
842
00:32:51,467 --> 00:32:53,100
And I think I'm going to...
843
00:32:53,100 --> 00:32:55,567
- Oh, really? Amazing. -you know, present him with a...
844
00:32:55,567 --> 00:32:57,567
a little bottle as the surprise.
845
00:32:57,567 --> 00:32:59,567
-So he'll think the whisky is the surprise. -Yes.
846
00:32:59,567 --> 00:33:01,567
-He'll think the whisky is the surprise. -And then this will be...
847
00:33:01,567 --> 00:33:02,900
And then this will be the surprise, yes.
848
00:33:02,900 --> 00:33:05,200
The thing is, when you have a good whiskey,
849
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,200
-you need somewhere nice to enjoy it. -Exactly.
850
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,467
Greg and Jill got into this house in 2020.
851
00:33:11,467 --> 00:33:13,467
You know, with the plan
852
00:33:13,467 --> 00:33:18,567
to sort of do things with it, zhuzh it up, make it more homey,
853
00:33:18,567 --> 00:33:20,200
invite their friends in.
854
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,700
You know, have dinner parties.
855
00:33:22,700 --> 00:33:24,066
I'm really excited.
856
00:33:24,066 --> 00:33:27,767
I'm really grateful to be able to provide this for him and Jill
857
00:33:27,767 --> 00:33:32,166
because they work so hard, both of them.
858
00:33:32,166 --> 00:33:34,266
-The awnings. -I know.
859
00:33:34,266 --> 00:33:35,767
We have the remote.
860
00:33:35,767 --> 00:33:37,567
You can hold the power. Don't lose it.
861
00:33:37,567 --> 00:33:39,767
I have the power!
862
00:33:39,767 --> 00:33:41,767
You're leaving and you're coming back tomorrow.
863
00:33:41,767 --> 00:33:44,467
-I'll hold the power until tomorrow...
864
00:33:44,467 --> 00:33:45,433
just in case.
865
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,700
After four weeks away, do you think Greg has any idea what's going on?
866
00:33:54,700 --> 00:33:56,800
I mean, if I came home to Laurence Fishburne
867
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,767
and a full camera crew standing in my driveway,
868
00:33:58,767 --> 00:34:00,433
if he didn't... he now does.
869
00:34:02,767 --> 00:34:05,467
-Gregory my man. -Okay!
870
00:34:05,467 --> 00:34:08,300
-I got a little surprise for you. -Yeah?
871
00:34:08,300 --> 00:34:09,700
-Yeah. -Oh, yeah.
872
00:34:09,700 --> 00:34:10,667
Oh, yeah.
873
00:34:10,667 --> 00:34:12,867
- You like? -Okay!
874
00:34:12,867 --> 00:34:14,567
Don't worry about that. That's not...
875
00:34:14,567 --> 00:34:17,567
Act as if-- like, this is how I do my job as an actor.
876
00:34:17,567 --> 00:34:19,100
Pretend they're not even here.
877
00:34:19,100 --> 00:34:20,867
Returning to see him just standing there
878
00:34:20,867 --> 00:34:23,667
with... flanked by cameras was like...
879
00:34:23,667 --> 00:34:25,867
What are you... What are you doing?
880
00:34:25,867 --> 00:34:27,500
They're not even here, right?
881
00:34:27,500 --> 00:34:28,700
Okay, where we're going? We're going this way?
882
00:34:28,700 --> 00:34:30,300
We're going this way. We're gonna go this way. Come on.
883
00:34:30,300 --> 00:34:33,867
Whiskey is one thing. Camera crew and whiskey is something else.
884
00:34:33,867 --> 00:34:35,367
And I don't know what to make of that.
885
00:34:35,367 --> 00:34:36,934
-Whoa! -Right this way.
886
00:34:39,266 --> 00:34:41,200
- Oh, my God. -Oh, my God!
887
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:51,834
-Oh! -Right this way.
888
00:34:54,100 --> 00:34:55,233
What's happening?
889
00:34:55,233 --> 00:34:58,100
-This deck is insane. Oh, yeah.
890
00:34:58,100 --> 00:34:59,200
Oh, that's amazing.
891
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:00,567
This is beautiful.
892
00:35:00,567 --> 00:35:02,166
Oh, I love the tiles.
893
00:35:02,166 --> 00:35:04,300
- Yeah? -This is great.
894
00:35:04,300 --> 00:35:06,166
-This is so nice.
895
00:35:06,166 --> 00:35:08,166
- It's so warm. -Yes.
896
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:10,433
It's so nice.
897
00:35:11,767 --> 00:35:15,533
When I walk back there, it's a lot to take in, in a moment.
898
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,066
It-- it's so different.
899
00:35:19,066 --> 00:35:23,800
I was looking at the far corner where the fire pit is.
900
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,700
Then I turned till, like, I saw the dining area. I'm like...
901
00:35:26,700 --> 00:35:28,166
What is happening?
902
00:35:28,166 --> 00:35:31,100
What do you do with a snapshot that is completely different
903
00:35:31,100 --> 00:35:33,800
than what you know is supposed to be back there,
904
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,000
and now it's something new.
905
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,567
It goes well with this.
906
00:35:36,567 --> 00:35:39,000
Anything goes well. This is amazing!
907
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,767
-You've been busy. -Yes, I have.
908
00:35:40,767 --> 00:35:43,133
-What the...
909
00:35:44,767 --> 00:35:46,767
-Oh, hi! -Oh, my God.
910
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,200
To be honest, it was just like,
911
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,600
"What's happening? Why is this happening?"
912
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,166
And then all of a sudden, these two giant, tall guys come popping up.
913
00:35:58,166 --> 00:35:59,767
And it really freaked me out.
914
00:35:59,767 --> 00:36:01,700
And I was like, "Oh! The Property Brothers!"
915
00:36:01,700 --> 00:36:04,900
And it's like, "Okay! Now I get it."
916
00:36:04,900 --> 00:36:06,767
-Where's Jill? -Where's Jill? Where's Jill?
917
00:36:06,767 --> 00:36:07,900
-We'll get her.
918
00:36:07,900 --> 00:36:10,100
-She'll-- She's been our inside person. - Yeah.
919
00:36:10,100 --> 00:36:11,467
-This doesn't just happen. -No.
920
00:36:11,467 --> 00:36:12,867
This is... the lottery.
921
00:36:12,867 --> 00:36:15,467
-This is amazing. -It's stuff that you've been talking about
922
00:36:15,467 --> 00:36:17,266
-for like... -Dreaming about.
923
00:36:17,266 --> 00:36:18,700
- Drainage! - Yes.
924
00:36:18,700 --> 00:36:19,634
-And we did-- - That's--
925
00:36:19,634 --> 00:36:21,467
-How did you do-- -We had that big rainstorm.
926
00:36:21,467 --> 00:36:22,667
Yeah.
927
00:36:22,667 --> 00:36:24,767
And we tested it and everything drains properly.
928
00:36:24,767 --> 00:36:27,767
-We ripped all the concrete up and repoured it. -Yeah!
929
00:36:27,767 --> 00:36:30,200
So that it was not only sloping but draining.
930
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,867
California seems to get all its rain in one week
931
00:36:32,867 --> 00:36:35,800
and you solved it in a way that now,
932
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,367
I don't have to ever worry about my backyard again.
933
00:36:38,367 --> 00:36:39,600
-Come on around the back. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
934
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:40,967
Let's hop over to the yard.
935
00:36:42,867 --> 00:36:44,100
I love the tiles!
936
00:36:44,100 --> 00:36:46,100
The tile feels like it could have always been there.
937
00:36:46,100 --> 00:36:47,266
Yeah, yeah.
938
00:36:47,266 --> 00:36:49,400
-It all feels so put together, like it ties together. -Yeah.
939
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,166
The subtle touches of the tile, that is just so us.
940
00:36:53,166 --> 00:36:56,066
It has that Mediterranean Spanish vibe
941
00:36:56,066 --> 00:36:58,200
-that we... we love so much. - Mm-hmm. Yeah.
942
00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,567
I feel loved.
943
00:36:59,567 --> 00:37:01,066
You know. I feel loved by Laurence.
944
00:37:01,066 --> 00:37:06,000
And I can tell that he made decisions that were all right on the money.
945
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,100
And check out the old wasted space.
946
00:37:08,100 --> 00:37:10,000
Yeah! Oh, that's amazing.
947
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,567
-This is so cool! -Isn't this amazing?
948
00:37:11,567 --> 00:37:13,667
- These little planters. - I love these planters!
949
00:37:13,667 --> 00:37:15,467
-Gorgeous! And really just... - I love this.
950
00:37:15,467 --> 00:37:17,100
-...brilliant, like, simple. -So nice.
951
00:37:17,100 --> 00:37:19,100
Hated this whole area but now...
952
00:37:19,100 --> 00:37:21,667
- But now... really sexy. - This is amazing.
953
00:37:21,667 --> 00:37:23,900
This is actually... I can use my house.
954
00:37:23,900 --> 00:37:26,100
Check out the view and the vantage point.
955
00:37:26,100 --> 00:37:28,667
You weren't even utilizing this before
956
00:37:28,667 --> 00:37:31,400
but now you can see who's in the pool,
957
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,000
who's over in the dining area.
958
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,266
This is amazing.
959
00:37:35,266 --> 00:37:37,867
He gave me a quarter of my yard back.
960
00:37:37,867 --> 00:37:39,667
The space that was there.
961
00:37:39,667 --> 00:37:41,567
Now I can use it.
962
00:37:41,567 --> 00:37:42,967
The umbrella is beautiful.
963
00:37:42,967 --> 00:37:45,467
The fire pit, I can't wait to turn that on tonight.
964
00:37:45,467 --> 00:37:48,500
The space is its own little zone
965
00:37:48,500 --> 00:37:50,166
where it's just, you know, hang out.
966
00:37:50,166 --> 00:37:52,567
We tried to make sure that the yard was beautiful
967
00:37:52,567 --> 00:37:54,567
-but also low maintenance for you. -Oh! Yeah.
968
00:37:54,567 --> 00:37:57,667
All of this being composite, it doesn't need to be re-stained.
969
00:37:57,667 --> 00:38:00,567
Doesn't-- You literally just hose it down when you want to hose it down.
970
00:38:00,567 --> 00:38:02,300
- Yeah. - And that's it.
971
00:38:02,300 --> 00:38:03,333
-You're done. -That's fantastic.
972
00:38:03,333 --> 00:38:05,467
And it's the same with that epoxy around the pool,
973
00:38:05,467 --> 00:38:07,467
it's a water barrier, it's a nice seal,
974
00:38:07,467 --> 00:38:08,900
and it's meant to last.
975
00:38:08,900 --> 00:38:10,700
And getting that right
976
00:38:10,700 --> 00:38:14,266
makes it a pleasure to be at your pool.
977
00:38:14,266 --> 00:38:16,867
-Also moved the AC. - Oh, my God.
978
00:38:16,867 --> 00:38:19,433
-Now, it's over here -That's a big change.
979
00:38:20,266 --> 00:38:21,367
So great.
980
00:38:21,367 --> 00:38:25,266
You and I have been working together for 15, 16 years?
981
00:38:25,266 --> 00:38:27,100
-Long time. -Right?
982
00:38:27,100 --> 00:38:29,266
-Yeah. -And you're like my younger brother.
983
00:38:29,266 --> 00:38:32,266
I'm kind of your older brother that's a pain in the ass.
984
00:38:32,266 --> 00:38:34,266
-Um, and I love you.
985
00:38:34,266 --> 00:38:35,300
We love each other.
986
00:38:35,300 --> 00:38:38,467
You always do whatever you can to make my life easier
987
00:38:38,467 --> 00:38:42,066
and this is just my way of saying thank you.
988
00:38:42,066 --> 00:38:45,900
I love you and trying to make your life a little easier.
989
00:38:45,900 --> 00:38:48,367
-You made it a hell of a lot easier. -Yeah.
990
00:38:48,367 --> 00:38:50,567
-It's a hell of a thank you. -You're welcome.
991
00:38:50,567 --> 00:38:51,900
Wow.
992
00:38:51,900 --> 00:38:54,066
Yeah, you've been talking about this since you moved into this house.
993
00:38:54,066 --> 00:38:56,767
Yeah. And it's so much better than I could have ever...
994
00:38:56,767 --> 00:38:59,166
-ever have come up with on my own. - Oh! Thank you.
995
00:38:59,166 --> 00:39:00,867
-No, no, no, no. No.
996
00:39:01,867 --> 00:39:03,600
This is it, the spot.
997
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,400
- La Cuisina.
998
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,166
-I mean, what do you think? -This table.
999
00:39:08,767 --> 00:39:11,867
-You had such a great potential space out here. -Yeah!
1000
00:39:11,867 --> 00:39:15,567
But the way your deck ended before was a little shallow.
1001
00:39:15,567 --> 00:39:18,200
-Now, it's bigger, it's more usable. - Mm.
1002
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,567
And you even have the full grill and outdoor kitchen.
1003
00:39:20,567 --> 00:39:22,100
Well, you want to see something really cool?
1004
00:39:22,100 --> 00:39:25,367
-Check this out. Ready?
1005
00:39:25,367 --> 00:39:29,400
- Almost instant...aneously... -Come on now, y'all!
1006
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,200
It covers the entire opening here so you can be out here
1007
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,266
-because that sun... is brutal. -Is brutal.
1008
00:39:34,266 --> 00:39:36,400
-Yeah. -Baking, like this half of my face is like tanned
1009
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,000
-heavily right now. -Yeah.
1010
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,266
And, in reality, even if it was raining...
1011
00:39:40,266 --> 00:39:41,767
-you can sit out here. -You can sit out here.
1012
00:39:41,767 --> 00:39:42,800
-Really? -Yeah.
1013
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,500
-In the rain. -You'll have shelter.
1014
00:39:44,500 --> 00:39:47,166
-You'll have total cover. -That's so nice.
1015
00:39:47,166 --> 00:39:49,066
This awning is huge
1016
00:39:49,066 --> 00:39:54,166
and it solves major problems that I have with that... that space.
1017
00:39:54,166 --> 00:39:57,467
The dining table is bigger than my indoor dining table.
1018
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,000
-Dope! -Dig that.
1019
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,433
Ooh!
1020
00:40:01,433 --> 00:40:06,300
So I expect that you will be inviting me for several wonderful meals here.
1021
00:40:06,300 --> 00:40:08,767
-If you bring the meats. -I'll bring the meats!
1022
00:40:08,767 --> 00:40:09,900
I love the waterfall.
1023
00:40:09,900 --> 00:40:11,867
-This material is fantastic. -This is a fantastic grill.
1024
00:40:11,867 --> 00:40:14,000
And you break it up with the porcelain on the front and back
1025
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,900
-that's actually ribbed so it looks like the slab. - Mm-hmm.
1026
00:40:15,900 --> 00:40:17,200
So you get new detail.
1027
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,166
More space for the fun stuff.
1028
00:40:19,467 --> 00:40:20,467
-Yes. -Oh!
1029
00:40:20,467 --> 00:40:22,200
-This, two fridges. -Okay!
1030
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:23,266
-Oh, this is a fridge! -Yeah.
1031
00:40:23,266 --> 00:40:24,667
-Yeah! - Two fridges so you can...
1032
00:40:24,667 --> 00:40:26,467
- Oh, wow! - Yeah, so you can store the meats.
1033
00:40:26,467 --> 00:40:27,667
-Okay! -Mm-hmm.
1034
00:40:27,667 --> 00:40:30,467
It's an easy reach for another bottle of wine
1035
00:40:30,467 --> 00:40:33,266
or something in the refrigerator. Like you, it's...
1036
00:40:33,266 --> 00:40:36,300
-it's not disconnected to the rest of the space. -Right.
1037
00:40:36,300 --> 00:40:39,667
You know, I was thinking, you know, 15 years of working,
1038
00:40:39,667 --> 00:40:42,500
-20 years of knowing each other and it's like... -Hmm.
1039
00:40:42,500 --> 00:40:45,834
I know, at some point down the road, this job is gonna end
1040
00:40:46,667 --> 00:40:50,000
and I look forward to the day where
1041
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,500
-I have you over and it's just us. -Yeah!
1042
00:40:52,500 --> 00:40:53,567
And we can go,
1043
00:40:53,567 --> 00:40:54,800
"Remember that time when...
1044
00:40:56,367 --> 00:40:58,467
...two brothers came to the back of my house
1045
00:40:58,467 --> 00:40:59,700
and scared the hell out of me?"
1046
00:40:59,700 --> 00:41:01,367
-Yeah. Yeah.
1047
00:41:01,367 --> 00:41:05,266
I've learned a lot working with Greg.
1048
00:41:05,266 --> 00:41:07,467
He's always got my back.
1049
00:41:07,467 --> 00:41:09,800
And so this is me trying to say,
1050
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:11,233
"I got your back man."
1051
00:41:11,567 --> 00:41:13,166
I feel thankful.
1052
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,000
-Love you, man. -I love you too.
1053
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,467
-Thank you very much. -You're very welcome.
1054
00:41:17,467 --> 00:41:19,367
I don't...
1055
00:41:19,367 --> 00:41:23,266
I really don't have the words for what Greg means to me
1056
00:41:23,266 --> 00:41:28,567
other than the word brother or family or loved one.
1057
00:41:28,567 --> 00:41:30,700
Welcome to your new backyard.
1058
00:41:30,700 --> 00:41:32,634
-Oh, wow! - Mm!
1059
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:37,467
Okay. That is absolutely fantastic.
1060
00:41:37,467 --> 00:41:40,300
-How are you? It's nice to see you. -Oh, it's good to see you.
1061
00:41:40,300 --> 00:41:41,867
Oh, wow.
1062
00:41:41,867 --> 00:41:44,166
As much as this was a surprise for me,
1063
00:41:44,166 --> 00:41:46,667
it doesn't mean anything unless you share it with somebody.
1064
00:41:46,667 --> 00:41:49,867
So thank you for helping make sure he knew nothing
1065
00:41:49,867 --> 00:41:52,400
and... and being our secret insider.
1066
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,900
And seeing her
1067
00:41:54,900 --> 00:41:57,166
react the way I felt...
1068
00:41:57,166 --> 00:41:58,667
like, he did this for us.
1069
00:41:58,667 --> 00:42:01,767
I get verklempt. I started to cry.
1070
00:42:01,767 --> 00:42:03,934
It's dusty. It's windy out here, man.
1071
00:42:06,567 --> 00:42:08,667
I'm just happy she's happy.
1072
00:42:08,667 --> 00:42:12,467
Of course. After everything that we've been through with this house,
1073
00:42:12,467 --> 00:42:15,800
this is... this is just the greatest gift
1074
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,166
I could ever imagine.
1075
00:42:18,166 --> 00:42:20,000
It's good, though. You cried like a man. It's good.
1076
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,867
I don't know. It was kind of ugly.
1077
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,200
I think there's some celebrations in order.
1078
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:27,367
- Yes, sir. - Yes!
1079
00:42:27,367 --> 00:42:28,967
- Let's go. -Let's go have a little nip.
1080
00:42:28,967 --> 00:42:30,800
-Let's go have a snort. -And have a little snort.
1081
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,533
To... Jill.
1082
00:42:33,300 --> 00:42:34,333
And Greg.
1083
00:42:34,900 --> 00:42:36,166
I love you guys.
1084
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,467
To harmony in your new home.
1085
00:42:38,467 --> 00:42:40,166
-Oh! -Thank you so much.
1086
00:42:40,166 --> 00:42:41,567
-Yeah. - Cheers.
1087
00:42:41,567 --> 00:42:42,767
Look at this.
1088
00:42:42,767 --> 00:42:43,767
Guys, thank you so much.
1089
00:42:43,767 --> 00:42:45,166
Thank you, guys. Thank you.
1090
00:42:49,266 --> 00:42:50,467
My man.
1091
00:42:50,467 --> 00:42:52,266
Thank you. Thank you so much.
1092
00:42:52,266 --> 00:42:54,200
You're the major. Thank you.
1093
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:55,967
Thank you for everything.
1094
00:42:55,967 --> 00:42:57,400
- I love you, brother. -I love you too.
1094
00:42:58,305 --> 00:43:58,549
