Changes Ahead for Home Renovation Duo
Big news is swirling around the home renovation world! After five successful seasons, the popular show Bargain Block has wrapped up its run, leaving behind a trail of beautifully transformed homes and millions of devoted fans. The final episode, which aired on September 10, was an unexpected close to a journey that many cherished. With the last installment titled Crumbling in Corktown, it seems this dynamic duo’s thrilling adventures in home flipping have come to an end.
What Happened?
The announcement of the cancellation took everyone by surprise—including the stars of the show! The talented duo, Keith Bynum and Evan Thomas, were blindsided when they learned about the show’s fate back in February. This sudden news threw a wrench into their meticulously crafted plans, as their renovation business was heavily intertwined with their television contracts for revenue.
With Bargain Block playing such a crucial role in their branding and outreach to potential clients, the pair had to quickly pivot and reassess their strategy. Suddenly, they found themselves focusing more on their design business, NINE Design + Homes. This transition certainly isn’t easy, especially after trading in the glitz and glam of television for the sometimes challenging reality of client work.
Transitioning Back to Basics
Not ones to back down from a challenge, Bynum and Thomas wasted no time jumping back into the trenches of client work, ensuring their design business didn’t skip a beat. However, they candidly admitted that moving from the television world back to their roots in working directly with clients presents its own set of unique challenges.
Unlike the high-budget productions of TV shows, this renovation duo has always made it their mission to keep home renovations affordable and community-focused. Their projects have provided first-time homeowners a chance to own a piece of Detroit without changing the character of the surrounding neighborhoods. This approach struck a chord with fans, who love how relatable and accessible their renovations feel.
What’s Next for Keith and Evan?
Despite the bittersweet ending of Bargain Block, this duo has no intentions of giving up on the dream they’ve built. They have been very open about their feelings regarding the show’s cancellation, which has pushed them to explore new media opportunities. Whether through design or another innovative platform, they believe there is still so much to share with their loyal community and followers.
Bynum and Thomas have built a strong connection with their fanbase and the vibrant Detroit community, further solidifying their reputation as creative and resourceful designers. They continue to embrace strategies like upcycling furniture and integrating unique artwork into their renovations, ensuring they remain a relevant presence in the ever-evolving home improvement scene.
A Thriving Business
Even after the cancellation, the pair reassures their supporters that their business is thriving. They emphasize the importance of resilience and adaptability in today’s dynamic landscape of home renovations. While many may express sympathy for them due to the show’s conclusion, the dynamic duo insists they are ready to embrace the future with open arms.
In summary, while the curtain has fallen on Bargain Block, Keith Bynum and Evan Thomas are eager to create fresh opportunities in the domain of home renovation. Fans can expect to continue witnessing their creativity shine, even as it emerges in a whole new light.
Join the Journey!
As they embark on this exciting new chapter, fans are encouraged to keep supporting local businesses and to stay tuned for what’s next for this imaginative duo. The world of home renovations is about to take on a whole new vibe, and it promises to be a delightful ride!
