Searching for a New Homebuilder's Dream Home in an Old Neighborhood
Chip and Joanna Gaines take Genny and Russ Davis on a tour through three homes in Woodway, Texas. Woodway is considered "upper-crust", an established neighborhood with older homes, large trees and massive yards. They want to move to Woodway because of the city's reputable school district. However, Genny Davis is a real estate agent and Russ builds new homes for a living and they are a bit reluctant to move into a fixer upper - a fact that distresses Chip but inspires Joanna. Will the Davis' choose the "Tree House" with the pool, massive fireplace and monster tree blocking the front door? Or will it be the asymmetrical "Stonehenge House" Chip says looks like an airplane and Russ describes as over-the-top masculine? Or maybe they'll choose the third house with the shared driveway on a quiet cul-de-sac? The drama escalates when an unexpected permit problem costing 30,000 dollars threatens to turn this fixer upper into a flop. Will the Davis' jump ship and build a new home instead?
An Old Friend Who Returns to Waco Hopes to Find a Family-Friendly Fixer Upper
Chip and Joanna Gaines take Jo's old high school buddy Jonathan Gulley and his wife Amy on a tour through three houses in the suburban neighborhood of Woodway, Texas. The Gulleys are returning to Waco after a 10-year hiatus in Chicago to be closer to friends and family. They're seeking a 4-bedroom home with a large kitchen, nice garden and a big backyard for their 2 kids, 2 dogs and extended family. Amy's biggest fear is flooding after a disastrous experience at their previous home. Will they choose the 'Fun House' with the funky multi-layered layout? Or will their choice be the 'Neat and Tidy Ranch House' with tons of trees but a very vanilla exterior? Or will the winner be the 'Tire Swing' house with the sloped backyard? Chip's nerves are on edge as the Gulley's new house shows signs of previous flood damage on top of an unexpected $8,000 HVAC problem. Could this deal mean the end of a long friendship for the Gaines and the Gulleys?
Chip and Jo Bring a Relaxing Coastal Feel to a Rural Fixer
Chris and Lindy Ermoian feel like nomads - after living in five homes in six years, they are more than ready to settle down into a forever home. They like the Hewitt area of Texas because of its close proximity to jobs and family. With a total budget of $237,000, Chris and Lindy hope to find a 3-4 bedroom house with an open floorplan, a "man cave" for Chris, a nice yard for their dogs, and a relaxing, coastal style for Lindy. The first house they visit Chip calls the "All American Ranch" because of it's colonial style exterior. The second home Chip nicknames "The Green Mile," for the expansive yard and long driveway leading up to the house. Last, they tour "The Wood House." The carpet inside has a bad odor, and an awkward pony wall closes off the front entry.
A Dog-Loving Couple Searches for Their First Home
Andrew and Brittany Chapman are looking to buy their first home together in the Mountainview area, and have brought Chip and Joanna aboard for the journey. With a strong budget, it opens up many possibilities for the Chapmans and gives Chip and Joanna a lot of freedom to make their dreams a reality. A big item on Andrew and Brittany's wish list is a home with room to grow and with plenty of space for their two dogs. When the Chapmans find their forever home, Chip and Joanna have big plans for the renovation and an even bigger surprise for the Chapman's pooches.
Tight Budgets and Big Dreams
After being away from Waco for six years, Will and Lauren return to raise their two daughters in the house of their dreams. They recruit Chip and Joanna to create their dream home, and with a budget of $300,000, they embark on a tour of homes through their desired neighborhood. With a love of mature trees and a wishlist that includes four bedrooms and a big kitchen, they will have little left over for renovations. Chip and Joanna get to work on the couple's chosen home, but with such a limited budget, they will have to choose wisely and get creative in order to give the couple their dream home.
New Chapter, New House
Chip and Jo meet with a client who just purchased a 1950s bungalow hoping to make it her forever home. After losing her husband to cancer, she decided a move to Waco to be closer to her adult children and find a home that would give her comfort for her next chapter of life. With $88,000 to spend on renovations, Chip and Jo get to work transforming the standard bungalow into a gorgeous cottage-style retreat.
Rock Star Renovation
Musician Mike Herrera and his wife, Holli, are moving from Washington state to Waco so they can be closer to Holli's family. They need a house with plenty of space for their two children and a large music studio for Mike. Chip and Jo find the perfect fixer upper, but when Chip comes across some serious structural problems, they realize they might not be able to finish in time for the family's big move.
Almost Empty Nesters Want Waterfront Home
Nearly empty nesters and boomer newlyweds search for a waterfront home for three, but with extra space when all the kids come home for their blended family of nine.
A Family Searches a Small Town for the Ultimate Open Space
With two kids under the age of ten, Jaime and Kyle Ferguson are drawn to the good schools and spacious lots in the area of McGregor, Texas. They are looking for a house with four bedrooms, an open kitchen, and lots of trees, and hope that Chip and Joanna can help them find the perfect fit. Their budget of $450,000 allows them a lot of flexibility for renovations, so Chip and Joanna take them on a tour of three houses in the area that couldn't be more different. The first stop on their tour is a large ranch-style home Chip calls the 'House in the Woods.' The next house feels like a step backward in time. Nicknamed the 'Wild West House,' it is a unique Victorian-style house said to be owned by a banker in the late 1800s. The last house they visit is a large, modern-style ranch nicknamed the 'Cliff House.'
Newlyweds Take On A Run-Down Fixer For Their Future Together
Ken and Kelly Downs are a recently wed couple looking for a home they can both call their own. They've outgrown Ken's small bachelor pad and hope to find a place that reflects both of their individual styles. With a budget of $250,000 in Waco, Texas, they are looking for a home with wood floors, an open kitchen, and his and hers office space. The first house they visit is the "Chalk Ranch House," named after the large chalkboard wall in one of the bedrooms. Kelly isn't a fan of the brick exterior, but she agrees that a little paint would be a great improvement. The second house, the "Cutie Tudor," is quaint and only needs relatively few updates. It already has a layout convenient for a large master suite, but the biggest project would be renovating the kitchen. The last house is a wild card that Chip throws into the mix. He calls it the "Three Little Pigs House" because it seems so old and weathered, a stiff wind could blow it down like the wolf in the children's folk tale.
The Floating Fixer Upper
Chip and Joanna's longtime friend, Brett, has a dream of living on a houseboat on Lake Waco. With an all-in budget of $85,000, the trio tours some of the available options on the lake, and Brett weighs their pros and cons before making his choice. For Chip and Jo, the tight budget and the even tighter space create plenty of design challenges, but the biggest challenge of all is a new one for them ... will it float?
Historic Tudor-Style Home for a New Family
Chip and Joanna Gaines take on a historical project for Courtney and Joey Scrivano, who are ready to upgrade from their modest loft to a house where they can raise their new baby. Built in 1927, their Tudor-style home is outdated, has little functionality, and lacks a true master suite. With a renovation budget of $200,000, Chip and Jo get to work preserving the home's historic charm while making sure it meets the needs of this new modern family.
Family Favors French Country Fixer
Chip and Joanna Gaines take Isabel and Justin Reed on a tour through three houses in Waco, Texas. Justin is a lawyer and Isabel's a part-time realtor and stay-at-home mom. The couple started their life together in a tiny town, which was Justin's preference. Then after starting a family, he conceded and moved his family to Waco. The Reeds have a generous budget of $450,000 allowing them lots of options to satisfy both their tastes. They're looking for a 4-bedroom, 4-bath house with a big kitchen, an open living area, a front porch and a nice play area for their two daughters.
Family Leaves the Bustling City for Quiet Simplicity

With a total budget of $185,000, they are hoping to find a house with 3-4 bedrooms and a large backyard for the kids. They first meet Chip and Joanna at "The Chicken House." True to its name, the house has chickens in the backyard! The second house they visit is "The Outhouse," named for the toilet that stands ready to greet them on the front porch. Last they visit "The Wizard of Waco" house, likely one of the oddest houses in all of Waco.

The Jacksons need four bedrooms and three bathrooms that, ideally, can be renovated within their budget of $400,000. Chip and Jo show them three options and, after a successful bid, Jo gets right to work on a design plan that incorporates the family's rustic and coastal style preferences.

Coffeehouse Owners Seek Home With Short Commute
Chip and Joanna Gaines take clients Kimberly and Blake Batson on a tour through three houses in Waco, Texas. The young newlyweds run the 'Common Grounds' coffee shop and are looking for a home close to their business. Kimberly wants trees, land and a huge yard away from busy streets. Their demands are few but their budget is tight at $120,000. Their only requirement is to have a short commute and enough room in their new home to install two cherished custom windows. Will they choose the charming craftsman? Or 'The Movie Theater House' that Chip describes as a cross between a cinema and a funeral parlor? Or the secluded 'Little House on the Prairie' with a creek in the backyard? Whichever they pick, it's a sure bet that Chip will continue to bug Joanna with his crazy antics.
Making New Family Memories in Rural Texas
For the first time ever on Fixer Upper, the tables are turned for Chip and Joanna. Instead of taking potential homebuyers on a tour of houses, this time it's the clients who are showing them a house. Sterling and Casey Zan inherited a 2,000 acre ranch from Sterling's grandfather, who she affectionately calls "Paw Paw." When he passed away, his house sat abandoned on a beautiful corner of the lot for almost ten years. Sterling has a lot of fond memories of the place, and hopes Chip and Joanna can restore it to its former glory. Chip warns her that the house is in serious disrepair and would need a hefty amount of work. While they have $160,000 in their budget to work with, the list of damage is lengthy and they would have to carefully prioritize fixing up the areas that need it most. Chip also knows of other rural properties in better shape that the Zans might be interested in, but he lets them consider their options before they make a decision.
A Host & Hostess for the Bed & Breakfast
In this season 3 finale of Fixer Upper, the Gaines have a lot on their plate!

While they add the finishing touches, Chip and Jo revisit the new Magnolia Bed & Breakfast and realize that they are in desperate need of someone to help run the place! Rob and Marianne Ward are a retirement-aged couple that have always dreamed of running a guest home, and Chip and Jo are hoping they might be the perfect candidates for the job. The only catch is that in addition to running the B&B, the couple would need to be willing to live in the adjacent carriage house.
Second Chance at a Country Home
After years of living near downtown Waco, Texas, Jordan and Rachel dream of moving to the country with their three children.

After a home search with surprising results, Chip and Jo get to work bringing these city folk the country home they've dreamed about. While the land may be perfect for the family, the home itself may be one of Chip and Joanna's biggest challenges yet.
Sweet Surprise at the Silos
The Silos are complete, but the abandoned building on the corner of the property is a blank slate in need of major renovation.

Chip and Jo's Family Garden Project
Chip and Jo decide to build a large garden at the farm with their kids. The garden will contain fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers as well as a chicken coop, a chicken run and a cottage-style garden shed. But in order to make this garden match their 100-year-old farmhouse, Chip and Jo will have to bring in some antique charm and character to keep it from looking too new and modern. With a combination of antique doors, cedar shingles and a stone fireplace, this cottage-style garden and shed will look anything but modern.
