Building Supplies Wholesaler BuildDirect Supports Holmes on Homes with Donation of Flooring, Decking, and Tile to Help California Family

BuildDirect, the world's leading online wholesaler of building supplies, has joined in with two popular TV shows -- Holmes on Homes and The Ellen DeGeneres Show -- to help save a Pasadena family from a home renovation disaster.

BuildDirect, the world's leading online wholesaler of building supplies, has joined in with two popular TV shows -- Holmes on Homes and The Ellen DeGeneres Show -- to help save a Pasadena family from a home renovation disaster.

Company co-founder Rob Banks heard about the project after an appearance by Canadian home renovation expert Mike Holmes on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. Ellen introduced Mike to a young couple that had decided to remodel their bungalow to make room for their growing family. The family had hired a contractor who they thought could help make their plans for a dream home a reality.

Four months into the project they had paid for 90% of their contract but only a fraction of the work was completed. Their 1700 sq foot home was left in shambles and the family was left with nowhere to turn. Fortunately they saw a notice on the Ellen DeGeneres website that Mike Holmes was coming to America. The project marks the first time that Holmes on Homes has featured a renovation project based in the US.

A variety of contractors and companies have come together to help assist with the project. BuildDirect has been one of the largest donors providing all of the bamboo flooring, multi-colored slate, porcelain tile and exotic wood decking.

"We saw an opportunity to partner together to help a family in distress," said Banks. "I have a young family myself so I was very interested when one of our employees first told me about the project. I know that the majority of contractors out there would never do something like this. We deal with great contractors every day, so it is that much worse when you see someone taking advantage of a young couple."

The whole story, including what the completed home looks like, can be seen on HGTV in Canada and Discovery Home in the US. Part One will air at 8:00pm on May17 on HGTV Canada and at 9:00pm on May 18 on Discovery Home in the US. Part Two will air the following week, on May 24 on HGTV Canada and May 25 on Discovery Home in the US. Mike and the homeowners will also appear again on the Ellen DeGeneres show on May 16th.
