Total Restoration

It's a cathartic time as Nicole Curtis works her way through an endless punch list. She and her business partner, Michael, are determined to find the best possible sales strategy given a tough real estate market in the dead of winter. Nicole is a perfectionist to the end. She manages to focus on scavenging for antique door locks, insulating the old-fashioned mail slot and, in a last-minute decision, painting the blue floor tiles black in the breakfast nook. And then, there's the final inspection to pass. Unbelievably, the day has come when Nicole can say it's finished. We see the entire house transformed from a neglected monstrosity to an elegant mansion, and with her first open house, Nicole gets to hear what the neighbors think of her work.
