HGTV continues to deliver big on home renovation inspiration. This spring, the network brought back fan-favorite Page Turner as co-host of “Love It or List It,” and now, another beloved show is making its return. After a two-year hiatus, “Fix My Frankenhouse” is back for Season 2 — and fans couldn’t be more excited.
The Boston-based husband-and-wife duo, Denese and Mike Butler, are once again tackling what they call “Frankenhouses” — homes with mismatched additions, outdated floor plans, and disjointed layouts. The series follows their design and construction journey as they give these homes a fresh identity that blends character, function, and style.
Season 2 premiered this April with eight new episodes and the same bold, design-forward transformations that made the first season a hit.
What sets “Fix My Frankenhouse” apart isn’t just the dramatic reveals. Denese, an interior designer, and Mike, a builder, bring their authentic relationship to the screen. In the season’s first episode, they explore a major life decision: Mike potentially leaving his corporate job to join Denese full-time in the renovation business. It’s a storyline many viewers can relate to — and one that adds a deeper emotional thread to the show’s already compelling format.
This kind of transparency is part of what makes the Butlers so magnetic. They balance practical construction with bold, livable design, while also showing the realities of balancing work and family. Their ability to blend vintage charm with modern renovations gives the show a unique edge in HGTV’s growing lineup.
New episodes of Season 2 will air weekly on HGTV and stream on Max. If you’re new to the show or want to catch up, Season 1 of “Fix My Frankenhouse” is available on Max and Discovery+.
