DIY Network House Crashers’ professional contractor Josh Temple is in Cleveland Ohio in search of a challenging renovation project. At the local Lowe’s he finds his target couple Rachel and Tim. They want to turn their old Polish butcher shop into a modern sophisticated living space while keeping its historic influence in mind. In their old living space they barely had a kitchenette that could be used to prepare a meal. Their whole space was falling apart and couldn’t be used to entertain. With the help of House Crashers they were able to completely turn an old butcher shop into an elegant and modern space. Josh Temple mentioned that this was one of his biggest projects, which we can see with the drastic change of the one hundred year old building. The kitchenette received a facelift with a new eye-catching BLANCO sink and faucet. Rachel and Tim were excited to do the renovation and you can see how happy they are with the result.
