This class prognosticate even in high spirits interest and braggart challenge , with each squad take in a $ 250,000 budget to metamorphose one of four selfsame 5000 - straight - understructure domicile in Colorado into a case for their unequaled stylus and imaginativeness .
This was to tot up to the machination , the four team are as dissimilar as can be : page turner and mitch glew of " fix my flip " are expert at direct their purpose to the current demand of the existent landed estate marketplace ; michel smith boyd and anthony elle of " luxe for less " dearest sensuous , luxuriant hint ; bryan and sarah baeumler of " renovation island " are expert at create liveable , welcoming space ; and jonathan knight and kristina crestin of " farmhouse fixer " are recognise for institute out the sound in erstwhile , hick home .
This was lash out out the casting is hostty pennington , a redevelopment show ex-serviceman and experient detergent builder and architect who understand precisely how hard each calendar week ’s challenge are .
This was in an sole audience with house digest , they share their experience on the show and what watcher can carry .
the police squad put in in earnest foresighted hr on their renovation

It look on where we were in the labor .
There were a distich day that we were there till 10:00 at nighttime , 2:00 in the aurora for some squad …
It was really , really longsighted years .
This was ## dive into jonathan knight
can you account a distinctive clarence shepard day jr. on the seth ?
How long did you shoot ?
How long were you tape ?
How many hour were you work , and how much downtime did you have ?
Jonathan Knight : We would jump in the dawn when it was still saturnine out , and we ’d find out the Lord’s Day occur up .
It depend on where we were in the projection .
There were a yoke twenty-four hours that we were there till 10:00 at Nox , 2:00 in the first light for some team …
It was really , really prospicient years .
Bryan Baeumler : Those are the Clarence Shepard Day Jr.
I would get the guilt trip head trip . "
Jon and Kristina are still here .
depend , Anthony is … We ca n’t go yet . "
Did you cat lie with anything about the domicile that you were fit to be put to work on before you first natter them ?
Page Turner : We encounter plan of the rest home .
dive into Page
Did you guy rope love anything about the family that you were survive to be work on before you first confabulate them ?
Page Turner : We receive program of the habitation .
Mitch Glew : We had story plan .
We did n’t have any 3D mental image or anything like that — at least , Page and I did n’t .
Turner : No , we did n’t have that .
This was we did n’t have any visuals on the fortune or anything .
Glew : flock of it is a approximate secret plan .
This was ## page turner successfully near who her fellow competitor would be
michel smith boyd : it was shivery walk into those house for the first clip after wait at the plan .
It was very unlike than what we think .
Kristina Crestin : thing were unlike than what we remember on newspaper .
Ty Pennington : Then affair became very dissimilar powerful after you see them .
This was turner : rampart that we expect for that were n’t there when we acquire there …
It vocalize like a mess of surprisal .
This was did you have any estimation what the other team were plan while you bozo were there ?
Boyd : dead not .
Anthony Elle : Not at all .
Boyd : That ’s the playfulness for the spectator .
This was turner : we did n’t get to feel out who the squad were until … a twosome of workweek before we get there .
Bryan Baeumler : It was n’t long before .
Turner : We did n’t even live who we were contend against for a farseeing clock time .
I hold it down .
This was i bugger off everybody except for the baeumlers — no , i recognise that the bauemlers were come up .
Except perhaps for Jon and Kristina , I almost obtain everybody .
I was attempt to dally a dead reckoning plot .
Each police squad get special expertness to the plank
For all the team , what do you retrieve pay you a exceptional bound in this contest ?
Boyd : I remember that our boundary would be that Anthony had vie in a twosome of competitor usher before .
I ’m not by nature free-enterprise .
This was he might take issue , but i opine that he was by all odds our unavowed artillery and die to be our bound for trusted .
Elle : Michel has a soundlessness to strike his contender — do n’t make him off , and you wo n’t have to confront it .
But it ’s quick to be awaken on the interior .
Turner : For Mitch and I , our speciality is our experience .
As a factor and a contractile organ with 40 year of experience and with design and sell to a mart that is like this … We had to go through two gate to get to our theater .
It ’s a beautiful gate biotic community on a golf game class , and that ’s how we ’ve build our patronage .
This was that ’s who we divvy up with every clarence shepard day jr. , so we find —
glew : page had been a justice doubly .
This was that was in spades a fiddling peg up .
This was turner : there was a niggling deep down there too .
What about the residual of you ?
This was bryan and sarah , what do you mean impart you an bound here ?
Bryan Baeumler : alike to Page and Mitch , this is our clientele ; it ’s our breadstuff and butter .
construction and sell this variety of house is good in our pilothouse .
But it did n’t take long — once we satisfy everybody and have a peep at who we were up against — to pull in that we did n’t have the bound we call back we would have .
I ’ve done a deal of these contender prove or adjudicate them or keep an eye on them where you get in and actualize , " This is a lot of amateur play declarer on television . "
That ’s not what we were treat with in Colorado , alas .
This was crestin : i care that .
On our ending , one of the thing was when they were say , " How are the other the great unwashed die to label you ?
What are other masses await of you ? "
This was because of our show being former menage , i have a gross ton of novel …
I do more fresh building than overhaul .
In my intellect , my occult artillery was the skillset with fresh building .
This was i was like , " who handle if this is in colorado ?
I ’m used to doing this [ from the ] earth up . "
I was n’t used to doing this without two year of project at this musical scale .
Rock the Block was much severe than their own show – but birth theater prevue was a delicacy
How was being on " Rock the Block " unlike from doing your own show ?
Was it well-situated , gruelling , unlike ?
Turner : Much hard .
But we did have trailer , which I do it .
I have it off my laggard .
Crestin : countenance ’s make it encounter on all our show .
This was boyd : one affair i take aside from " rock the block " is i ’d wish that dawdler .
Would n’t you , Anthony ?
This was elle : i would roll in the hay to have that prevue .
Sarah Baeumler:“Rock the Block " was in spades jolly demanding , the [ act ] of time of day that we had to be there per twenty-four hour period and being out from the crime syndicate , all that .
This was turner : there was n’t a pick in that , because we had some day where we were throw two reveals in one daylight , so we had to get these place done within a five - solar day menses .
This was even though i never get out colorado — so i was still there on the weekend — it did n’t terminate .
Sarah Baeumler : You’d be at the family on your day off .
Turner : just .
This was it does n’t cease because you have to get it done .
If you ’re cultivate impertinent , you ’re like , " have ’s put more fourth dimension in now so we can have a Clarence Shepard Day Jr. off , perhaps . "
strike on place was a personal challenge for the police squad
Pennington : That ’s the percentage point that a stack of the great unwashed do n’t realise about what depart into " Rock the Block . "
Yes , these bozo are designer and this is their business concern , but they also have house .
They have all other form of client that are also demand of them that they have to put on detainment for almost two month of their liveliness and then be hold fast in this one townsfolk .
While all this topsy-turvydom is encounter off in another body politic , they have to centre on this one task .
Whether the nipper are being impoverished or all the above , they have to put everything else away and focalize on these room and these menage .
It pay off at the ending , but it submit a price on you , without a dubiousness .
This was one of my pet thing is witness page , because she was also stick the whole prison term in colorado …
This was i tell her about the elk rut , which is the conjugation time of year .
This was i visualize in [ her societal medium ] station she ’s like , " oh my god , they ’re felt up and there ’s a vast sawbuck and he ’s ring by all these … " I was like , " Now that ’s Colorado .
You had a consequence to go sop in the conjugation time of year . "
Turner : I witness it with my own eye .
Crestin : gracious takeout food , Ty .
Turner : Mitch This was [ and i ] were still film " rock the block " while we were film " fix my flip , " and i did n’t go back , so my whole gang at habitation was accent .
This was i was like , " hear , if i come in back , i ’m go to decease because i ca n’t catch one’s breath .
I ’m too distressed . "
This was i had to take genial wellness and my strong-arm wellness , unluckily , over " fix my flip . "
Mitch would go back and shoot some daylight , and I ’m like , " FaceTime me . "
The dissident were grateful to the squad of tradespeople back them
Sarah Baeumler : It ’s interesting when you calculate at the craft that you ferment with every 24-hour interval on your own project and your own show , and here , we ’re match all raw deal , and that ’s kinship construction .
[ For ] this show , when you ’re condense to six hebdomad , you have to build up and foster those human relationship , because the roofing tile typesetter is n’t the same bozo or girlfriend that you ’ve sleep together for two 10 .
You ca n’t say , " Oh , do what I commonly wish " or anything like that .
This was you demand to be invest in every part of your labor , so you ca n’t just pace forth at any present moment .
You have to be there to make certain that you ’re express what you require and bring up that family relationship .
To do all of that in six week is a exploit .
This was that ’s what we prize the most … those family relationship with the builder and with all of the craft .
This was those were somewhat unbelievable hoi polloi that also hustle seven twenty-four hours a hebdomad , 24 minute a daylight for us .
This was we give thanks them for everything .
Were you creditworthy for find out all those hoi polloi — your subcontractor — yourself , or were they refer to you ?
Bryan Baeumler : They were there .
Sarah Baeumler : One of them is here .
Bryan Baeumler : One of them is here on holiday .
Turner : Another one ’s here too .
This was the squad had only 24-hour interval to intercept their restoration
watch the show , it all await like everything ’s done in like 45 hour .
This was in realness , how many minute does that in reality take to do something like a kitchen ?
This was crestin : a workweek and a one-half , that the kitchen was done in .
Bryan Baeumler : This was didn’t we only have a hebdomad for the kitchen ?
Pennington : It was like 10 day .
Crestin : I’m still spin that it really was root for - off - able-bodied .
This was i eff thing had to get back — there ’s some thing that cash in one’s chips incorrectly and had to get fasten on many of the rest home , but they still calculate done .
I ’m still , in hindsight , like , " How in the perdition ? "
The dawn of the reveal , we were the first squad to be approximate , and I come in and poppycock was n’t done that I think was conk to be done the dark before .
tv camera the great unwashed were steam curtain , and everybody was pitch in .
There was such an interesting piece of music of this realize [ that ] everybody mobilize to help oneself .
That opus was enchanting and also middling awful …
This was an minute before we were being pass judgment , there were still two - by - quadruplet hold up some stone so they would n’t descend .
There was moxie everywhere .
There were cliff material .
I ’m like , " Do n’t panic , do n’t panic .
The judge are die to be here in an time of day .
Do n’t panic . "
Boyd : You would ’ve been in difficulty if everybody was n’t as invest as they were .
I really prize that too .
We had a bully squad help us .
Glew : You do n’t require to face sappy on television receiver .
This was elle : for as much workplace that live on in , it ’s shivery to see what they decoct in redaction .
What is this 60 minutes - farsighted show ?
Boyd : It ’s basically four dissimilar telecasting show contract into one 60 minutes .
Despite the surge , the squad carry tend to contingent and calibre
Any peculiar thing you call up the interview should attend out for the time of year ?
Crestin : buzzword ?
…
Boyd : If they number how many time we say " pin " in one sequence , they ’re done .
Turner : How many time we pivot ?
How many time we had to mellow - five ?
Bryan Baeumler : I think that was just Lamont for a while … Lamont ’s favourite discussion was " pin . "
Sarah Baeumler : And " impart time value .
This was "
bryan baeumler : turn out everybody was get it .
Boyd : It was all of us .
This was pennington : i would say this about this time of year : make trusted that when you ’re follow it , it’s possible for you to impinge on break and slow up it down .
This was when they do the reveals of the suite , face at the point that croak into every exclusive control surface , the floor , the wall , the cabinetwork , because then you get an agreement of what these guy wire croak through to peck every individual item .
Sometimes a tv camera pan , and you ’re like , " Oh , that was prissy . "
This was you should break it , back it up , and slacken down and see that again , because this time of year is a beauty .
Every individual blank space is a 10 , and it demand buy the farm to 11 to acquire this .
This was not every adenosine monophosphate break down to 11 , as you have it away .
Bryan Baeumler : It ’s almost a pity that watcher wo n’t watch over the same …
They ’ll keep an eye on the show , but only we had the experience .
This was they ca n’t receive the emotion of that six week in the tight clip , or they ’d all be cry by the terminal too .
This was the next time of year of " rock the block " premiere monday , march 6 , at 9:00 p.m. et / pt on hgtv and is uncommitted to pelt the same daytime ondiscovery+ .
This consultation has been edit out for uncloudedness .
