Overview
- Jenny Marrs announced the show’s return and said production is under way with 14 episodes planned and nine houses currently in construction.
- Season 8 will feature a personal project converting an airplane hangar into a home for Dave’s brother and a long‑delayed coffee shop that must be lifted out of a creek bed for new foundations.
- The Marrs confirmed a planned 24‑hour renovation for a St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital family in Tulsa that they described as physically grueling because of extreme heat.
- Fan‑favorite carpenter Joe Looney has returned to the series after a health‑related break, and the couple say the production has adjusted when needed as they cope with several recent family and pet losses.
- The Marrs partnered with Aleve for a Project DIY campaign to highlight the physical toll of renovation work, and viewers should watch for tight scheduling and reveal dates as builds and charity work continue.
