Another satisfied customer.
Off to the next! - Thanks, Randy.
Pine on the ceiling, tile in the bathroom. We do it all!
Too many other jobs. I got ten, he got one.
What do you mean, one?!
Green is green, white is white.
White is not white, green is not green!
Here's a hammer.
Design when it comes to children...
it's almost like there are no rules.
Hurry up, Randy.
Get our classroom done!
Holy cow!
This is beautiful.
The kids are going to love it!
I'm Randy Spracklin.
Third generation builder, proud Newfoundlander!
My team and I are building on one giant cliff
in the Atlantic Ocean.
They don't call it the rock for nothing.
We fight the elements year-round to get the job done.
It might be tough for some but not for us.
Because when this is your view, it's worth it.
Welcome back to Newfoundland!
Summer is always our busy time of year, but you gotta love it.
You know, nice, sunny weather. You wake up in the morning,
the birds chirping, going to the job site.
Nothing better.
Then the madness happens.
Get it done, Son.
New job here in Portugal Cove.
It's gonna be a good one.
Deadly view, anyway.
Looking out at Bell Island, looking out over the ocean.
This house is another catty build,
coming after a large year of awesome projects.
We did a massive reno in St. John's.
Look at that.
Found a beautiful chimney.
And that was a real head-scratcher at times.
Man-oh-man-oh-man.
Ros, the homeowner, loves colour.
Oh, my!
This is not our house!
One, two, three.
And we saved a couple old biscuit box houses on the Avalon.
We're really down to the wire.
We got every trade you can think of is in there now at something.
Wow.
I love it. It looks incredible.
There you go, opened up.
We're in Petty Harbour today and it's going to be a tangly one.
Whoa, you're gonna hit.
Some think we should have torn it down
and started over but that's not what we do.
Holy doodle! Wow!
Oh, my god, I love it!
But it wasn't easy!
There's always some kind of challenge building here in Newfoundland.
There's a storm coming.
And part of the Trans-Canada Highway washed out,
creating big delays for our supplies.
So today most of the windows have arrived.
It was a scramble, but we got it done.
And if it was easy?
Everybody would wanna do it.
Wow, Randy!
So you guys did all of this?
We did it all. We're a little bit crafty.
You guys are good.
Look. I got a new toy.
And it flies.
We have liftoff.
Hope I don't flip it on the turns.
Or in the drink.
Look at the whales now.
It'll be helpful this year with so many unique jobs on the go!
Up.
Now give it.
So the team, they're busy.
Truck number two.
Moving right along.
Even in the piss pouring rain.
Paul's taken on a new role.
Daddy.
What, is he sleeping?
He's coming to.
Can you picture Paul singing nursery rhymes,
walking around...
Things are changing a little bit there now.
Instead of being able to come straight home
and either get into it.
Well, I got the number one distraction.
You can tell he's not getting that much sleep.
He's still there and he gets the job done.
Gonna be a good day today. Robert slept well last night.
So Paul's my right-hand man, Harv's my left-hand man.
Good thing I got a right and a left.
In here, we're gonna rip this off.
So Harvey, he got no filter.
It's hot in here. No joke.
But he's a good hand whatever you throw at.
All right, man, I'm gone.
Don't hit your fingers.
The old man, he's starting a new venture.
Balancing HVAC systems.
But wherever we need a hand,
he's there to help.
Randy, your cheap labour have arrived.
You!
Uncle Al, he's a good hand on site.
Keeps saying he's gonna retire.
I forgot. Younger legs get up higher!
But he's like the old man. He never will.
Nikki is still loud as ever.
Al, I need ya!
- Oh... - The wind is not very good there now!
Michael's back, and Holly's a newbie.
5 out of 10.
Not even a six?!
5 out of 10 difficulty! Not too bad.
So Nikki ain't the rookie anymore,
but she's still learning.
Once you don't see any grey bleeding through, you're good.
Look at me telling people how to do it!
This year's going to be really challenging
because we have big supply chain issues
and that's going to put delays.
You need multiple jobs so you can pivot.
Lucky for me, there's a lot going on.
Lotta unique projects and a lot of Newfoundland flavour.
That's a first for me, to see a ship's mast holding up the floor.
Not every day you're building a chicken coop,
not every day you're lifting it over the trees.
They had a little bit of trouble trying
to get the wharf done and this is hurricane season.
It's all muck.
Who got this brainy idea to build out here?
Burger and fries.
All I got is roosters, buddy.
That's a big cock, that one, isn't it?
So we got the good, bad and the tangly jobs.
Back over in Brigus, down on Harbour Pond,
there's one good and tangly job
waiting for us to finish.
It's a brand-new house for Ruth and Graham
that my old man kick-started last year.
And before winter, it was framed up,
roof on, and looking mint!
Hey, main level.
Kitchen, living room.
It's coming along.
The old man wants me to finish it up.
The homeowners just arrived.
But we'll see how that goes.
I'll hand the rest over to Randy
so you can call him from now on.
Pressure is on.
- To be continued, yeah. - Yes.
Works been moving along.
The clapboard's gone up and she's looking bright,
just like the dory in the pond!
The colour is definitely unique to Newfoundland, for sure.
As you can see we're not afraid of a pop of colour.
I hope the homeowner don't have too many pets,
'cause he's gonna have another 40 or 50 ducks to be buddies with.
The inside's coming along too.
Mario's got the walls ready to prime,
and we can move ahead on some finishing details.
We're into the stage of doing trim.
Al is doing ledges right now
and I'm just putting some plastic on the inside of them
for the painter Mario, so he can spray them without messing the windows up.
When you're at the trim stage, it's a good thing to be at, so...
Five more to go he says.
Next up, check in with design
and find out how Sam and Sasha want to finish the job in style.
Welcome back to Brigus!
Thanks. Good to be back.
Yes. So good to be back! Look at this gorgeous house.
I know.
It's pretty bright. - Wow.
- I love the outside colours. - Yes.
There's a lot going on, it's fun.
It's a Newfoundland feeling, Newfoundland vibe,
and it just feels happy.
Let's see inside, is it gonna be as good?
It's gonna be a little bit better.
Okay.
On the ground floor, there's a drive-through garage
plus a guest room.
The main level is all open concept with a custom kitchen,
dining area, and a cozy living room
that looks out over the pond.
At the very top, there's a study for Ruth,
and the main bedroom has a walk-in closet,
and custom washroom.
This home with deadly views of Brigus
has a budget of 500 000,
and we've got two months to get it all done
so the homeowners can enjoy the blueberry festival.
Yes, look at this beautiful room!
Oh, it's coming together, Randy.
Looks like Scott's been busy.
- Yes. - Yeah, the old man's been busy.
He's done a great job. Wow.
I'm excited about working in a newer home.
Yeah. There's not the same concerns that we have,
you know, these vintage type older homes
where, you know, leaks just happening.
We don't have wonky stairs that Nikki's gonna be cursing us out.
Take off the high heels and start picking, ladies.
- We're starting fresh. Right? - We're starting fresh!
We got our heels on, Nikki, and we're starting fresh.
Exactly.
This is our kitchen area here?
Yeah, yeah. The kitchen all around here in an L-shape.
- Okay. - With a big old island in the centre.
We only have really from here to here.
So we're gonna do full cabinetry in this wall area.
Exactly, but just lowers over here.
- Just lowers. - Yeah.
- I think a wooden top? - Exactly.
Yeah, and that's going to add the warmth.
So this kitchen's going to have cream all through here.
And so this wall here, we're doing this great little like...
...pop of a teal green.
It's a soft teal green.
- Yeah, it's like a warm green. - Yeah.
To work well with the creamy cabinets that'll be here.
Sounds good to me. Green is green, white is white.
I'm worried about the wood.
White is not white, green is not green.
How many greens do I know?
Like dark green, light green, middle colour green.
You know, grass green, moss green,
tree green, that's about it.
It's going to be such a fantastic space
for entertaining and I know they love to do that.
Yeah, yeah. You're gonna be able to sit here and look at the view.
The view is nice down here but it's even better up top.
So you wanna go have a look? - Oh, yes, for sure.
- I do. - Let's go see. - After you.
Oh, yeah.
Look at this bedroom.
I told you the view was up here.
Wow.
Nice, big bedroom, lots of light coming in.
I love the angles in the ceiling.
I know. It's that new and old.
- Exactly. - So this house is brand new,
but this is making it feel older, having these angles.
It is.
We're gonna do our bed over here.
A couple of end tables, a nice little chair,
just what you need in your bedroom.
Exactly. But I think it would be nice
to bring in some wood.
Some painted wood, put some wood
on this architectural ceiling.
So now you're speaking my language.
Wood. - Yes. - But also painted wood.
Painted wood.
Teal green, is it?
You never know.
Listen to you talking about...
I know, right? I'm getting right fancy.
Oh, you're getting fancy.
Is there fancy stuff going in the washroom, too?
There is definitely fancy stuff going on in there.
All right, let's have a look in here.
Fancy stuff.
We're going to have the lighter floor
in that tile which is going to continue all the way up,
halfway, with a chair rail to here.
And then we're gonna do a smaller tile which is going to add
a little bit of a pattern, a little bit of texture here.
You got a lot of texture in here, but you did send me a text
that there's a lot of texture in the other room?
- Yes. - We texted you about the texture in the other room.
Yeah. Let's go look at the texture, that the text that I sent.
Ruth's retreat!
So this is where that texture is going, in this room?
This is it. This is Ruth's retreat.
It's gonna have lux wallpaper,
it's gonna have texture, it's gonna have deep moody tones.
Moody tones? Lux wallpaper?
- All the right words. - All the right words.
It's going to be maximal design instead of minimal design.
- Maximal? - Yes.
I love it. Yeah, you're learning, Randy.
We're impressed. - To the max. - Yeah, to the max.
- To the max. - Well, I think I'm maxed out with all these moody design.
I need to go search for what all this stuff is, fancy-dancy colours.
So I'm gonna go figure out how to build me cabinets
and leave you to the luxe wallpaper.
Yay. You got this. I can't wait.
I'm excited.
While I wait for the design details for the inside,
outside things are looking very different.
The old man's finally seeing it my way.
He's on a machine!
He's digging holes for a new gate,
and then he's got to build a pad for the propane tank.
Sometimes I have to use the excavator.
It's mainly because Randy makes me.
Pick and shovel is my way to go, though.
And you know something different?
I never broke not one single thing.
Randy would have the corners off 'er.
That's 'cause he's a snail!
- That's right. - Zhooo!
The excavator, I'm a little bit slow on
but I get the job done and I don't break nothing.
Maybe I'm getting old. Can't get up out of the hole.
It's better to be a snail and not break anything.
Took him two days to put in four posts.
It was eight posts, sorry to tell you.
I spread six loads of topsoil in four hours.
Yeah, you never had nothing to hit.
Down at Harbour Pond in Brigus,
the old man's on a machine!
He may be in charge of the project,
but he's taking forever getting the ground ready
for the new propane tank.
On this job here, the old man keeps trying to slide it over
and I keep sliding it back, so he's looking after this whole place.
I'm just here for the grunt work.
I wanted to put that off of my shoulders
and get the homeowner to keep calling him, but it never happened.
Too many other jobs. I got ten, he got one.
What do you mean, one? What are you talking about?
Making a place for a propane tank.
- How heavy is that? - Heavy.
I'm just putting fill right there, right?
Yeah, right in front of that.
The old man can't do it 'cause he's too slow.
Hopefully he just leaves it here for me.
And hopefully he doesn't hit the house
'cause then I get to brag.
Take a shovel.
Randy.
One more scoop here.
- In there? - So we can level it out a bit.
Don't hit that boat.
It's all about teamwork.
There is a little bit of bickering going back and forth.
He wants it his way. I want it my way.
This is all about the vision.
I think it's more about the bickering on his side.
I just go along with you most times.
I just like to go the opposite.
I know. That's the whole thing.
Another satisfied customer.
Off to the next!
Thanks, Randy for coming by,
and not letting me drive.
Busy as we are in Brigus...
...the next customer to satisfy is near St. John's,
on a community project that's too fun to pass up.
So I'm in Shea Heights starting out today,
just outside St. John's and I gotta do an outside classroom.
So I must go see the principal and make a game plan.
Hopefully, I'm not gonna get in trouble.
I used to a little bit when I was younger.
Memories!
We checked in with the kids, teachers,
so there's a big wish list.
One thing about kids, they got no filter,
so they'll tell you really how they feel.
So this is our outdoor classroom dance.
Ready? Set?
Quiet corner.
If you ever like...
...have like anger,
you can like go in the quiet corner,
like calm down.
A big movie screen.
And...
...I want a big projector.
I'd like to study gardening outside.
I want a greenhouse.
Randy, if you're watching this,
you should make a rock wall.
Oh, yeah.
So I found you.
Yes, I found you wandering our halls.
Holy cow.
That definitely brings me back.
I'd say it does.
The community of Shea Heights, it's a very close-knit community.
We looked at the great work that Randy and his team have done
and we knew that would be a good fit for our school.
Welcome to our planned outdoor learning classroom.
Okay. Cool.
Nice big space.
This is a place for everybody to come and learn.
Absolutely.
We're a K to 9 school
and this will be a space that's accessible all year long,
where we're going to encourage our children to come out
and just have a lot of fun and have a great space
for learning that gets them outside of the school.
Oh, okay. Right on.
So a blank canvas here.
We can actually build something to sit around.
We can build some vegetable gardens.
What do you think about that?
I think that's brilliant and that's what
our kids have been asking for.
However... we can't use wood.
Oh, man. Can't use wood?
We can't use wood.
I'm going home.
You know, we do have some concerns
for fire hazards and having wood pieces out here.
Well, the good thing for you is that we do work with wood,
but we work with rocks, we work with metal,
so we don't really have to go with the wood.
So, kinda leave it with me.
So I see they definitely did some patchwork around the walls.
So are we gonna do something with this?
Oh, we'd love that. And we had a student
who actually designed a beautiful mural...
- Okay. - For our Eagle Pride group,
to represent our LGBTQ community
and we had a parent jump on board
who's offered to paint that mural out here for us.
Oh, awesome.
Cool. So basically,
learning place, remove all this, make it flat,
mural all around the wall, have a garden,
which I love a garden.
You know, there is some other fine details
where we can't use wood. That's what we love.
I know you love wood.
- I love rocks too. - But I can count on you
to be able to do that and think outside the box.
I'll put my creativity hat on and come up
with a game plan and start bringing equipment in.
That's what school's all about, my friend.
Sounds good. I won't go back in school, I'll just go down this way.
I'd like to know what kinda student you were.
Uh...
I got all F's for "fantastic."
Randy mentioned to us
that he got all F's for "fantastic."
But I am sure that he would have gotten an A-plus
if there was more outdoor learning spaces available for him.
Hurry up, Randy.
Get our classroom done!
With school out for the summer,
the mural painter, Nicole, can get started right away.
It's a great little cozy corner.
Whenever I see a new wall, I see new potential
and I can see this mural flowing right across
these two walls and bringing it all together.
I've been painting since high school,
or since I was a kid, so it's a hobby of mine.
I enjoy it.
I'm a heavy equipment operator and it's awesome to be at this.
With this project, what was interesting was that
they had a child that did a drawing and won the contest.
So we're gonna take that drawing
and incorporate it into this piece.
This looks about 800 square feet.
The prep work has to be done first, so wall washed.
And I'm glad it's gonna get spray primed.
I am trying to map out this mural
before we actually start putting the paint to it.
I just use sidewalk chalk. It works great.
This is just to get a rough idea of where everything is being placed.
It's supposed to rain on Friday so I got two days.
So I'm trying to get chalk done on day one
and get the outline in black paint on day two.
And then it'll be like colour-by-number-ish
when we get going.
We're gonna go with the Pride palette
and we're gonna run a nice rainbow ribbon
right through this whole mural.
It's all about community and the school
and the kids and the staff are just amazing.
It pulls everything together.
I'm really excited to work with Randy and his team.
This is gonna be a nice project.
Outside St. John's,
the Shea Heights outdoor classroom project
is right on track.
Josh, a local landscaper, wanted to get involved,
which is awesome.
We're taking out all the old grass,
everything that was a little bit dilapidated and unmaintained.
And we're replacing it with brand new topsoil,
brand new sod, kinda just beautifying the area
so it looks nice for when the classroom kids come out, right?
Randy mentioned it to us about the job and stuff like that.
We said we'd be all on board.
It's always nice to help the community,
especially with the kids involved.
It'll be nice to see them kinda use it for years to come, right?
What we're gonna do then is come in with brand new sod
and make sure everything is good and in tip-top shape.
The whole idea of an outdoor classroom I thought was really cool.
I'd love to have seen that when I was a kid!
It's a hot day in Brigus,
and work at Harbour Pond is right on schedule.
The new engineered flooring went in without a problem!
And Harv and Al have taken the bathroom from
builder basic to Newfound-Mint!
I'm doing tile.
I don't mind it.
The tiles are...
...that size.
And they're going up here,
up here, behind me.
There's no issues, only it's hot in here, no joke.
Oh, bring on the shower.
And a drink in my hand.
On the outside...
...the stairs to the front door are getting installed.
And now it's time to tackle that "lux" feature
Sam and Sasha wanted in Ruth's study,
V groove pine on the ceiling!
It may look awesome, but it's super tangly to do.
See? Pine on the ceiling.
Tile in the bathroom.
Tile. Wood. We do it all!
We don't just keep the big changes
limited to the job sites.
We gave my company its own upgrade, too.
This year definitely changed from last year.
You know, we kinda got a little bit more busier.
Hent we built a piece onto the shop, so the wood shop is grown.
We added on this space and as you see,
we got an assembly bench here, that's our spray booth.
Then we got the drying rack, 'cause when the b'ys are spraying all the stuff,
you need somewhere to lay it and dry it.
This is where all the final details go in.
So, you know what?
The old man was the go-to for in the shop...
...then we added PJ,
and we added Matt last year.
So two of the b'ys are the go-to.
The old man still is in here dabbling, you know,
when he got time to do other stuff.
So having everybody from the b'ys in the wood shop
to the old man, to everybody out in the field,
to everybody in the office,
it's us to figure it out and how we're gonna build it.
And that's what we love about it,
and that's why we can pull off all these awesome projects.
The biggest challenge is getting materials
for all the custom work we do.
But today we've got everything ready to go for a dining table,
and the big job, making the kitchen for Harbour Pond.
Deadlines are tight, but they're on it.
We should be able to pull it off if all goes well.
As long as doesn't change.
Everything lines up right, it should work out.
Randy wants it done yesterday as always.
We work together great. We've done it for years and it just works good.
Scatter a little scuffle in between,
but it works out in the end.
Making the table out of birch
and our inventory that come in for the table
is no longer in the inventory.
Could be trouble.
Scott had decided to use some of our birch for his project
that was for our project
and somebody's got to break the news to Randy.
I think I'll leave that one for PJ.
!
!
It took like a month for us to get this birch in
to get this table built, and now,
no more birch.
So we're hoping we don't have to wait another month
to get the other pieces to finish it.
Hello? - Hey, Randy?
Yes?
We got a problem.
What's that?
The birch we got come in for that table,
there might be a couple of pieces missing.
The old man?
Yup.
So here's another thing we learned today...
Yeah.
Tape up the wood and put a name on it!
Yup.
I'd love to be a fly on the wall
when Randy talks to his old man on that one.
Could be an interesting conversation.
Scott definitely considers this his shop as well.
It's just some material he shouldn't touch.
Summer's short in Newfoundland,
so we gotta grab every adventure when we can.
Give me an ear plug for the right ear!
Try not to talk the ear off you anyway.
Which is why me, Nikki, Paul and the old man
are headed way up to a catty little spot
called Herring Neck.
Not too far away from Twillingate,
right in the Atlantic Ocean.
So we're in salt water. It's cold.
It won't be trout fimming around, it'll be codfish.
They have a Dory Festival here including a rowing competition
that anyone can join.
And you know how much we love to compete!
So how big is a dory? Is it much bigger than a kayak?
Depending on if it's a sea kayak they're probably the same length.
Good stuff.
All the boats are made of wood, which we love,
but they were used for fishing back in the day, not racing!
Could be tricky!
A little bit of competition on the go, I think.
I didn't have too much experience rowing dories.
Rubber dinghies, yes.
This here's gonna be pretty new.
But it's bragging rights when we leave Herring Neck
and go back to the rest of the team.
You can't go back saying that you lost.
You gotta go back saying that you won.
Is the pointy part the back of the boat?
Is that what I'm seeing down there?
Yeah.
Oh, really?
The square part I thought was the back.
You got the bow and the stern.
The pointy part was the front.
But it looks like she got the back
of the boat as the pointy part.
Yeah, but when you're rowing,
you sit backwards.
Oh.
Hey, genius,
what's the pointy part of the boat called?
- Bow. - Just checking.
So we're doing this way? Or this way?
- This way. - Backwards.
Yes.
I thought you rowed.
I said did we figure out who teams were yet?
I know who I don't want to be in the boat with.
- Who's that? Me. - Paul.
So we're gonna pick rocks.
- Okay. - There's two coloured rocks,
two regular rocks. - Okay.
So whoever got the coloured rocks
are in the yellow boat.
Whoever got the regular rocks are in the red boat.
I kinda want to be against Paul and the old man,
'cause it'll be funny having Nikki in front of me
and I just sit back while she's rowing.
I'll just say "stroke!"
"Stroke!"
I got mine.
I'm totally competitive so I didn't come out here to lose,
so I'm totally along for the ride
and if I can beat Randy or Scott or Paul, deadly.
You get stuck with Nikki.
When her competitive side kicks in and she gets way too excited,
she'll be like...
going flat out. - Randy next.
You gotta cover it up and show it the one time.
If I want to beat everybody out there, my strategy is to take Randy.
I think he's probably the best of the crop.
No, don't go looking, Spracklin.
Well, jeez, I'm okay, it's like poker.
I'm allowed to look at me own cards.
Ready? One, two, three.
I got a coloured rock. And Randy got a coloured rock.
It's me and Paul.
Nikki, her biggest thing now
is keeping this shut and keeping that moving.
All of her energy's coming outta here instead of here.
Come on girls, can we see you practice?
They heard her over in Twillingate!
So we've been rowing boats for a long, long, long,
long time, since we were 10 or 12 years old.
- Probably 10 or 12 old. - Old enough to know how to row.
We grew up racing with our friends,
just in the harbour out here.
Typically our confidence level is fairly high.
- Absolutely, yes. - That we're going to medal...
- At least. - ...in the race.
And we got the community behind us.
Usually everybody is rooting for us, you see.
Absolutely.
Hey, guys. Let's go look at our boats.
So basically, the race will start in by the wharf around the white buoy,
go out around the red one and come straight back home.
It's about a kilometre, so...
...it's a good thing we had the go-go juice last night.
All right, folks.
We're starting off with some big contenders here.
It's a one-time thing.
We... we go out, we come back
and it's all about the time.
Jones girls, are you ready?
I think there should be a wager made.
There needs to be a wager right here, right now, folks.
Loser gotta jump off the wharf.
Jeez, Nikki.
Oh yes!
Sounds like you're going swimming.
This is huge! Are you ready?
Three, two, one, go on!
This is for the championship.
Stroke! Stroke!
Stroke!
One, two, three, go.
!
No, no, no.
!
Randy, my oar!
Here's a hammer.
Here.
Nikki and Randy are in big trouble.
They can build a house but can they row a boat?
Ready? Let's go!
This is unbelievable.
There's trouble! Both boats are gonna collide!
Be careful!
We thought it would be fun to enter
the Herring Neck Dory Festival,
where me and Nikki...
- ! - Stroke!
...are racing against Paul, the old man,
and local champs, the Jones Sisters.
This is unbelievable.
There's trouble! Both boats are gonna collide!
Be careful!
Hey, guys!!
How far are we, Randy, are we close?!
We're not even close yet, Nik.
Let's go. Stroke!
Paul and Scott, come on, keep going!
You and the Jones girls are neck 'n' neck!
Stroke.
Stroke.
Paul and Scott! You have finished!
Paul and the old man, they took it.
Me and Nikki never did so great.
Row, row, row.
Nikki and Randy are still out there.
I forgot totally about them. They almost hit that rock over there!
Ah we're going in the water!
You're only 25 minutes off the pace.
Holy , we bombed that.
Nikki! Nikki! Nikki! Nikki!
We're going for a swim!
Three, two,
one... give'er!
The whole team ain't leaving empty-handed,
we got a medal, you know we can share it,
we'll hang it up in the office so it's a win-win.
Hey, it's all a good laugh!
Nikki, how are you doing?
You shouldn't have bet!
I guess I shouldn't have lost, eh?
Now it's time to relax and enjoy the rest of the festival!
Go dry off in the sun.
Wouhou!
Back on the Avalon, we're racing again,
but this time,
it's to finish the outdoor classroom
at the Shea Heights school.
We got three picnic tables to go together.
Only thing it's metal not wood.
Holly, are you packing them in the order that we need to come out?
So we got all the tables in nice, packaged boxes,
wrapped up just so you be able to pick up,
there are three tables, three boxes, slide them in, gone.
The only thing is it's stored in the shipping container
which we use it, design team uses it.
Well let's just say they went in, poked around, opened everything up.
They thought it was Christmas morning!
I'll grab this side you grab the other side.
Originally, it was just gonna be the old man
and now...
the old man, Holly and Al.
and we're going to St. John's, to the school,
or I should say they are.
I gotta stay here and price a job.
Yeah, well Randy's not going to town today.
Sam and Sasha's supposed to be coming over too,
so they'll be there if they're missing some more washers, they can go find them.
Many hands make light work.
Even though it ain't wood, there's instructions,
the holes are pre-drilled, you got nuts and bolts.
How hard can it be? Famous last words!
We got all the pieces lugged up
and the next challenge now is fitting it all together.
Are you sure you got it right?
Almost like that needs to be on there?
Is that right you got there?
The next one goes on here and overlaps.
No. It says these...
Where's the washer going on the inside?
It says these get one bolt and two washers and one nut.
Me and Al, we hate instructions,
we like trial and error.
But we got Holly with us,
she's a fan of the instructions so we're good.
Give Holly the instructions!
Pass me those instructions.
Give Holly the instructions.
These are the instructions.
You just gotta read them.
It's not that hard. We are at a school!
It's hard when you only got kindygarten!
Yeah, so it feels great now.
All we gotta do is get the other two done
and hope when Sam and Sasha come,
they don't get us to move it 20 times.
Oh, they will!
The exciting part is to see if we run outta bolts and nuts.
It went good all together.
If Randy knew it was this easy he would have done it for sure.
- Hi! - Hi, guys! - Hi, ladies.
We've done the hard part, it's all put together
now we just need placement from you guys.
- Yes. - Alright, okay.
Let's see what we can do.
I mean there's a little bit of an opening here.
Look how fantastic these are.
And then maybe this one over a little bit.
Yeah, but do you mind switching that one with that one?
Sure. I can see a big difference in the two of them!
Thank you, guys, really good job.
Time to do some planting.
- So we'll put the burning bush in the back, Sash. - Yeah.
Putting together design when it comes to like, children,
I think specifically, it's like almost as there are no rules.
Looks good.
Peonies will fill out this garden over the years.
Throw a lot of colour in there, have fun with it.
And then functionality,
can you clean it up easily,
making sure that it's at kid height.
- I think it's a good height? - Yeah, looks great.
- I'm a little bit shorter and this is... - Fits you.
The brighter the better, the more energy,
the more fun, but as Sam said, it has to be able to be cleaned.
We also are gonna do some raised beds back here, right?
That's right, exactly.
Why am I struggling so much with this one piece?
Top nuts are used for top two rows.
We're gonna be here all day.
Yeah. I'm starving.
Me too. Definitely. Let's go.
- Yeah, we deserve a break. - Yes, we deserve a break.
We'll come back to this. - We'll send Randy.
Definitely send Randy!
Feeling good.
Big day today, everything is all done,
so time to get Linda the principal,
see how I made out!
Oh my God!
Holy cow!
This is beautiful!
Feeling good. It's all done, looking great.
I'm sure the kids are gonna be excited.
Everybody pitched in, though.
This was a real community effort.
You know, Sam and Sasha came,
the old man and them, the landscapers,
and the artist.
Look at this, amazing.
But I got one little last thing.
The kids wanted a quiet corner,
so I'm gonna lay it out,
a little pad for them to kneel down,
sit down and just be quiet.
But I don't think they're gonna be.
Look at this place.
Time to get Linda, the principal.
And see how I made out.
Hopefully, I'll get an A-plus.
It's really exciting to see this project
finally come to fruition.
We've been waiting a long time.
And you know what?
Some things are worth waiting for.
Oh, my god.
Holy cow.
Oh, this is beautiful.
Oh my gosh.
Oh it's better than we ever dreamed of!
Beautiful mural.
That mural is phenomenal.
It's pretty exciting.
There's our Bosco Eagle!
And you know, the magical space of the unicorn,
our younger kids are gonna love that when they see it.
Nicole did an amazing job.
You can even get a photo op!
A vegetable garden! The kids are going to love it.
I know! All ready for planting!
Excellent.
Beets, carrot, turnip, onion.
We've got a jigg's dinner right here in front of us!
Pretty much, they can come out,
be little farmers, be creative.
Oh, they absolutely will!
They're going to love it when they see it.
To see that everybody pulled together,
like having our students heard
and the collaboration with you guys and the rest of the community
makes my heart full!
That's the thing, we made sure we had the students being heard.
They wanted a quiet corner,
so we made them a quiet corner over here.
Oh, I can see the kids sitting there
reading their book or having a little chat with one another.
And then we did this lovely garden.
Beautiful. And these are the rocks
that our students have painted.
This was such a blank spot, you know,
overgrown and now look at it,
it's a wonderful area where kids are gonna want to be,
and staff are gonna want to be.
It was a beautiful space
and it was a big challenge you put to us.
We did.
The one rule, we couldn't use wood.
That's what we're all about, using wood!
So you really had to think outside the box.
We came up with a solution to actually do metal tables.
Well, part of education is giving you a good challenge
and you certainly have met that challenge.
I wanna take a seat! I want to get in here.
Maybe I can draw a picture of you, Randy!
Give'er!
When you're here working,
you can really let your imagination soar
as you sit here looking up at that mural.
And then, if I was going to do a report card,
I could do: Randy, an absolute
big A+.
Totally exceeded our expectations.
Awesome! That's mint!
We tried to hit all the marks.
You know, definitely it was a big wish list from the kids.
It's going to be hard to get them to come back inside I think.
I know! I think you created something
where they're probably not gonna learn inside anymore,
they'll only learn out here! - They are!
It's hard for me to pick a favourite part,
because everything represents something the students wanted.
I love the mural for our LGBTQ+ group.
The beautiful garden, quiet spot, we really needed that.
And then these beautiful tables where the kids are gonna come outside
and just spend their days and learning in a new and unique environment.
It's really worth seeing.
This is amazing.
It's great to see that you've written
"Welcome to Shea Gardens" on our new white board.
Father Shea's family donated the money for us
to make this classroom happen
and then we know that the students can use
the white board for their learning and all their projects
they're going to do out here. I can't wait for our students to see it.
I know. I can't wait for them to see it, too.
Whoa! Look at the Garden!
I love it.
Holy!
It's very awesome!
Look at the eagle.
And I like the rainbow like that.
This is amazing!
This is the garden, Damian.
This is a cool garden!
Randy did a good job.
Don't you think that class
will be really cool out here?
There isn't a movie theatre
but that's okay, I like to draw!
This is the coolest classroom in the school.
I'm going to tell my friends it's amazing out here!
So, Daniel, I know you did the inspiration for the painting
so we framed your picture.
So here you go. - Thanks. This is amazing.
Oh, no problem. It is amazing.
Guys. Have a look.
Oh my God!
You know what?
Probably I'll show Grady how, you know, hard work and,
you know, using the old brain there will get you an A +.
Maybe I'll bring it home and see if Grady and Rhiannon
will put it on the fridge with theirs.
So, looks like it's working. What does everybody think?
This is the finish dance.
Thank you!
Randy, good job!
Go Eagles!
This season of Rock Solid Builds.
That was close!
The wind is not very good there now!
You can't look in the phone book and find somebody that does cribbing.
Labrador first, Newfoundland second, drinks third!
Sometimes, it goes really good,
sometimes it goes really bad.
Do you want a hug? Because I need a hug!
Oh my god!
One window in.
The homeowners wanted white inside because it's Newfoundland.
All the colour is out here!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on.
Ah , we got a little boo-boo.
That's the number one thing.
If they're happy, we're happy.
On to the next.
Oh my god!
You gotta see this!
After you.
Oh wow, look at this!
Who puts wallpaper in a chicken coop?!
That's gotta be a first!
Oh my goodness!
Oh, just look. Oh!
Looks like a villa, not a gazebo.
Oh, I know.
You knocked it out of the park.
I keep saying it's exactly
what we wanted, but it's not, it's more.
