General Comments

60 Minute makeover have recently done our house. They did a fantastic job. My wife's mother surprised her (Iwas in on it!), the staff and crew were fantastic with us and my mother in law (who was very poorly with cancer at the time).

The only thing wrong is a cupboard door in our kitchen has fallen off - as they fitted new doors onto the old carcasses - but as they spent 1000s on our house (the granite worktop in the kitchen was 1000s on it's own), I think we can forgive them! They gave us all new appliances - new fridge freezer, oven, washing machine etc., and the furnishings they gave us were far better than anything we could have afforded.

As for comments about the 60 minute time - they have time to prep things - ie cutting things to size etc. The stuff has to be fitted into the house in 60 minutes and it is really done in that time.

Yes there are areas that need a touchup with paint but what they've done is amazing, and they've been nice enough to keep in contact to see how things are, and also sent a bouquet of flowers when my mother in law died not long after filming.

Overall - from the perspective of somebody who''s been on it - fantastic, can't thank them enough.
