Everyone felt sorry for this couple's disastrous house on Room to Improve last night
RTÉ RTÉ
LAST NIGHT’S ROOM to Improve focused on a lovely house in Maynooth – with a dark secret hiding behind the walls.
Yes, it was that dramatic.
It was Sinéad and George’s dream home
RTÉ RTÉ
And Dermot thought it looked class when he arrived in the car
RTÉ RTÉ
But when he walked in the front door, the first thing he saw was a shower in the… hall
RTÉ RTÉ
Lads
It might look nice on the outside, but Dermot quickly finds out that “none of the rooms really work” when he gets in
RTÉ RTÉ
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Next, they head on into the bedroom
RTE RTE
But they saved the best until last with this tour, as they head into the final room – to discover some serious wet rot
RTE RTE
Which is the “worst thing that could happen to a house”
RTE RTE
^that face
This had horror film written all over it
But there was still hope
Turns out, a serious chunk of the budget is going to go on just fixing the place up
RTE RTE
There were worries that they might have to just wrap this one up early
The house is “fundamentally compromised” ffs
RTÉ RTÉ
There was one line that kept popping up
Fears of mould spread across the country
RTE RTE
This was quickly turning into one of the all-time Room to Improve disasters
“It’s like it’s been hit bu a cruise missile” says the builder
RTÉ RTÉ
Sinead and George were staying seriously calm
They had to replace the whole damn roof
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Things weren’t looking great
RTE RTE
Dermot was throwing out some unique measurements
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
RTE RTE
And using Hollywood as inspiration
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
The pair of them struggled on the decision about the colour of the window frames
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Great!
And a few quick edits later, we suddenly had the house finished
RTÉ RTÉ
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
But everyone was just glad it was over
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
RTÉ RTÉ
And the response to the completed job was near universal approval
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
RTÉ RTÉ
Only gorgeous
George’s white cardigan was the final talking point
We’re just surprised he settled on a colour in the end
What a journey that was.
