We live in the Historic District in Collierville, TN. Our home was built in 1946 & is small but comfortable. We would love to update our kitchen & add another bedroom & bathroom & more closet space. We need the help of the great professionals on HGTV. I watch HGTV all the time & see what the professionals can do. I would love for HGTV to come to historic Collierville & help us with our major renovation. Thank you for your consideration.
Please see above comment
Any help would be appreciated!
We are a retired couple living on the Gulf Coast of Alabama(30 miles inland on the main route to the beach). We could use a new roof, a new compressor for our heatpump ,hardwood floors and a small bathroom in an upstairs room. We watch HGTV every day and love it. Thank you for what you do. Come see our beautiful area.
Any ideas would be appreciated, designing a Master Bedroom.
Would love to be able to fix up date kitchen and bathroom.
want to do my Master Bedroom in a calming color with a Flat Screen on the wall, and a King or Queen Bedroom set. And I also want a seating area with two recliners. I will submit a picture to see what you thinkat a later time.
hi, i watch hgtv nightly before bed, i would love help with remodeling, my home was built about 1964 is traditional ranch and could use lots of help. new bath fixtures, and laundry room needs lots of improvements. also my lawn needs sodding etc. i could only wish to be a winner but will be happy for whomever wins.
I am going through a divorce unfortunately. We have a beautiful home but i will be moving to a small home with my youngest. I found a house that only needs cosmetic help. It is probably bank owned at this point. I am allowed to get estimates but I won't be able to afford to fix it up the way i'd like. If I had the help, I believe we could make it a special, warm, inviting home.
HGTV IS GREAT
It is so wonderful to see how much you help people see their dreams come true.
I have a very nice home but would like to have my kitchen and bath updated. Their are so many people really needing your help but I thought if it is just a lucky drawing go for it Jean!
an!
Hi I just bought my first house. It is any 80's split level. I would love to enter into your sweepstakes but I am not able to. It is telling me internet problems, any suggestions..
I live in south Louisiana! My husband and I bought a $59,000 fixerupper. Things keep coming up and we can fixer up! lol We both have full time jobs so its very hard. We dont have the money to fix everything. We also didnt know how much we would have to have. Its more than we thought! This would be a blessing from heaven!
After buying a foreclosure we were left with no money for renovations.The kitchen and bathrooms need updating and we have no landscaping.We are getting too old to do the work ourselves though we try and we can't hire anyone.Getting some work done would be a dream come true.
I live in North Florida. After 30 years of marriage my husband and I finally bought us a house in a nice neigborhood. The house was built in 1969. We remodel the kitchen a couple of years ago so it looks pretty good but the bathrooms need redoing due to black mold and they are so outdated. But now we don't have the money. The roof needs repairing and also the overhang. When I was 5 years old I went to my Aunts house and she had this big porch that went all the away around and ever since then I always wanted a porch like that for my grandchildren to play on but never got it. If I was to win this I would definitly redo the bathrooms and pray that I will have enough left for at least a patio in the back..

Eight years ago after 28 years living in a trailer my wife and I finally bought a house in a nice neigborhood. It is an older brick house. The bathrooms need remodeling due to they are old and they have black mold, especially the masters bedroom and the roof is in bad shape. And she always wanted a porch or at least a patio. I am writing this because my wife deserves a nice home. She is a hard worker, a GREAT wife, mother and daughter. My wife watches HGTV constantly until 1:00am even though she has to get up at 5:30am. Please bless my wife with this make over. Thank you
what did i do wrong. what do you mean by awaiting moderation
Hi HGTV, please come help me get my dream bathroom,yard and porch. My husband and I eight years ago finally bought us a nice home in a nice neigborhood. But it is an older house so therefore it needs alot of updates. The bathrooms are still in the 1960's. The yard has alot of potenial but it needs help. My husband and I have been married 36 years and finally eight months ago we have the house to ourselves. For one reason or another we had our children and grandchildren living with us. I would love to have our bathroom and backyard to look like an oasis. We deserve it after raising 6 grandchildren. I watch HGTV constantly until 1:00 in the morning. I guess because I love watching people being blessed with your help. Thank you and God Bless.
We have a galley kitchen I want to open into the dining room to create an open space. I also want to open the dining room wall into the garage and convert it into a family room so that I can see and hear all the action going on in the family room. The walls that will need to be taken down will make this flow nicely. I can see the final results so easily. We are very mechannically inclined and can do quite a bit of the work ourselves.
I am a mom of 6. Served in the US Army and my husband and I just purchased our first home with my VA Loan. We have small children and the home we purchased need a significant amount of work. We currently do not have a kitchen. We have a small half a bath that we use to wash up but have to go to family's house to bathe at night. It is such an inconvenience but we are all glad to own our first home. Your sweepstake is truly sent by God to help individuals like us who are in need. Thank you!
Hi there…….I have a 38 year old home that the carpenter ants found when it was only one year old. Even though I have fought a good fight for my home, I am losing the battle. And now, I haven't got any more money to keep on fighting. At least 2/3'rds of my structure has been compromised and I am living in a house that may collapse around me within the next couple of years. It's scarry, because I was forced into an early retirement because of being disabled. Living on a smidge over one k a month, does not provide the possibility for restoration. A 'helpful' friend of mine suggested that I find a rich husband…….silly girl. I gave up on that one when I fell in love with the wrong guy, who is history, years ago. Just the thought of even a remote possibility of making my home a safe little palace, is a wonderful fantasy. As long as I can keep the fantasy going in my head, the better……..where there is fantasy, there is hope. xoxox,M PS: Thanks for the good thoughts.
Carpenter ants started munching my 1 yr. home in 1973, and I've been battleling them ever since. Now, because I am disabled & living on ss, I haven't been able to keep up the fight against them. About 2/3rds of my walls and my roof need replacement. There is a soft spot in my bdrm at my door in my floor. The luxury of having a new kitchen in my fantasy dreaming is being usurped by the realities of life. I have to make my house stay perpendicular to the ground! Having a roof over my head has become primary.Thank you for allowing me to even hope.
Hi yes, i was wondering if Sabrina Soto would maybe consider being involved in my project to sell my home. My first question is, will HGTV travel to Houston, Texas. Secondly how do i go about contacting HGTV to even attempt and set some sort of appointment up.
THANK YOU
my husband and i live in a 15 year old home. we would like to have a up dated kitchen/great room. we are on a fix income and could not afford to do this ourself. thank you
Hi,our home was built in 1961 , I greatly need help with updating, Kitchen & Bathroom ! The bathroom had plastic tiles that were glued on ,we have tried everything to get them off. cabinets in bathroom and Kitchen were built onsite. probably 30 nails in 1 board . lol ,I am so lost with how to update and change it around so it is comfortable to cook in. I would love a dishwasher ,do to me having R.A. very hard to hand wash dishes anymore . I love you shows I watch everyday ,I am disabled everyone does such an amazing job. Please help if you can . Thank you , Patti
I hope that someday that you all will come to Johnson City Tn. graciously help with updating our Kitchen , and Bathroom . We have been slowly updating other parts of home , but KItchen & bathroom I cannot get any ideas of even how to start do to how it was designed back in the 1960's.. My bathroom has a Mauve Tub and sink (ugly) cabinets in both kitchen and Bathroom were (built on site plywood) with black hardware.Drawers do not open very well tug and pull motion ,then lucky if you can get them to go back in or close .. Please consider . Thank you so much . Patti
My daughter and her husband purchased a home built in the 50's. They are hard working parents of 1 child with one on the way. Their bathrooms are terrible. Pink and Black tile, outdated lighting and sinks fit for a boat bathroom instead of a home. Paint is peeling and the fixtures leak. They cannot afford to remodel, but it would be great to have them featured on one of your shows about the worst bathrooms. Thanks.
