OMG everybody, I dunno if you just saw the latest episode of Holmes on Homes, but my dream finally came true. Mike Holmes and his crew came over and fixed my house, and it’s all because I wrote him this letter.
My letter:
Dear Mike Holmes,
We need your help! 4 years ago my wife and I purchased a detached 6270 sq ft home in Green Valley Acres (1 km south of the equestrian club). For the first three years, everything went beautifully. We really enjoyed the 3 acres of yard space, especially because we have no kids. We loved spending warm summer evenings relaxing in our gazebo, sipping vintage wine, comforted by the fact that we each make over $80,000 a year and our Land Rover is already paid off. But lately we’ve been having problems!
It seems our plumbing may have been done totally wrong! When we start the jets on our hot tub, the water that comes out first looks a little bit grey, and then it gets clear. Same thing when we start any of our taps, or when we flush the toilet. What makes this especially horrible is that we just had our kitchen renovated and had marble floors and granite counter tops put in. We’ve also noticed some grey water leakage in our basement, which makes us so angry because we just converted it into a rec-hall complete with wet bar, pool table, and walk-out to the stone patio and man-made pond with fountain. We called the people who built all of these homes in our area, but they said it was going to cost money to fix it! I hope you can help.
Mike Holmes’ response:
OH MY GOD I CANT BELEVE THEY DID THAT TO YOU. OK I WILL COME OVER. WHAT IS YOUR ADRESS I WILL MAKE IT RIGHT.-MIKE
Pictures:

Our house in Green Valley Acres. Only problem is… Something was wrong with our plumbing!

Our hot tub and back yard. And there’s our white show-horse, Pegasus, in the background! Hi Pegasus!

Mike Holmes helps lots of poor people. The people who live in this house hired somebody to finish their basement and make a rec room, guest bedroom, and wet bar… But it didn’t turn out the way they wanted. Luckily, Mike Holmes saw their plight and made it right!

Mike Holmes helps poor communities too. Here is a picture of a poor neighborhood that he helped because somebody didn’t build the fences right.
Do you have a story about Mike Holmes coming to the rescue? Share it here! Do you want to write your own letter to Mike Holmes? I can show you how! E-mail me at doubleincomenokids_homeowner@sympatico.net (please, no more renters and real poor people in apartments and condos and stuff asking for help).
Hook me up with one of them Pegasus!!

Hi Mike,
We are big fans of your show !
We are writing to you because we are in a big dilema.
We have had installed an all inclusive home theatre system hooked to our internet as well. We just noticed we were missing the Playstation 3 plugs on the wall ! So each time our kid (we only needed one) wants to play Playstation he has to run into a big hassle of pluggin out his Nintendo Cubix 7 from the TV and plug the Playstation 3. You can understand our concern !
We also have a problem with the people who delivered our home theatre. Whenever we turn the TV on it shows the news channel instead of the Pay per view channel.
My wife and I are convinced that we were sold a faulty XXX widescreen TV.
We really don’t need the news channel. There is nothing we can do really. I mean we all know the african kids are dying over there in the republic of Africa because it does not rain enough over there !
Besides now that we got rid of Saddam (yay ! us army) once we get that sand nigger of Bin Laden, the world is going to be peacefull so who needs the news channel ! LOL LOL LOLZ !!!!
Please help !!!!!!!!
Mike & Jane (xOoxxOOxO)

just saw his show,what a jackass. I’ve been remodeling for 20 yrs. he doesn’t even know the diffrence between level and plumb,he does know some good subs,but goes to extremes(costly)he talks about codes,but as the show goes on have seen many violations in any code area,plus a lot of common sence gaffs,like bricking in a metal fireplce and flue that will need inspection within 5 yrs. and using a wood frame behind what he proudly proclaimed “fire resistant cement board???
maybe I’m jealous-wish I had customers willing to spend that much money.another bob villa. knows a little, but a salesman.
