Builder Boss Gives Audiences Unprecedented Access to The Real World of Custom Homebuilding and Renovation
Master Contractor Jim Caruk (Real Renos), the man behind some of Canada’s most respected custom homebuilding and renovation projects, is making his highly-anticipated return to HGTV Canada with the brand-new series Builder Boss, premiering with back-to-back episodes on Thursday, June 21st at 10pm ET/PT.
Builder Boss follows the stories, the stress, and the success behind every one of Jim’s builds. Each episode documents a real-life Caruk Group job from the early days of a build right through to the finishing touches with stunning reveals of the completed spaces. Projects include a 6000 square foot Georgian mansion, a repurposed old Victorian home, a massive Charleston-style porch complete with garden, and an underground bunker created to house a golf simulator. These projects are big and complex, and each episode captures months of highs – and lows – as they unfold.
“It’s a great feeling to be back on the job with HGTV Canada, and our new producing partners at Entertainment One,” says Jim Caruk. “It’s been an incredible year, and we’re very proud of the work we’ve done on this series. We hope that audiences will come along with us for a real insider’s look at the business, and have some fun with our team along the way.”
