Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is an American reality television series providing home improvements for less fortunate families and community schools. The show is hosted by carpenter and veteran television personality Ty Pennington.

Each episode features a family that has faced some sort of recent or ongoing hardship such as a natural disaster or a family member with a life-threatening illness, in need of new hope. The show's producers coordinate with a local construction contractor, which then coordinates with various companies in the building trades for a makeover of the family's home. This includes interior, exterior and landscaping, performed in seven days while the family is on vacation and documented in the episode. If the house is beyond repair, they replace it entirely.

A team of rapid-fire renovators takes big risks and makes painstaking plans to transform families' homes from top to bottom in just 12 hours.

Host Jesse Tyler Ferguson showcases great stories, inspired volunteers and mind-blowing home renovations for families who give back to their communities. The whole-home overhauls includes interior, exterior and landscaping—all completed within seven days while the family is sent away for the week.

Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin harness their world-renowned organizational expertise to thoughtfully design and specifically tailor and transform homes from the inside out. Assisting them is a team of builders and contractors from homebuilder Taylor Morrison who expertly reconfigures the homes based on each family's lifestyle and needs.
