Bunkie Life As Seen on TV - HGTV Canada

HGTV CANADA – Bunkie Life was chosen to build a backyard bunkie for a family in Toronto, Ontario for the show ‘Family Home Overhaul.’

Bunkie Life was approached by HGTV producers to work on the project.

“I was pleasantly surprised when they called us! It’s cool to know that the HGTV people are also Bunkie Life Fans” says David Fraser, Owner of Bunkie Life.

The project took one full day to complete, then we returned to add the steel roof. David says working with a film crew was a super fun experience and everyone was great to work with. 

“It was fun working with the HGTV crew and when the Hamilton Tiger-Cats  football players showed up, we laughed the entire time” adds David.

In ‘Family Home Overhaul’, host Cheryl Hickey (ET Canada), introduces a family nominated by their community for always giving back despite any hardships they personally encounter. 

HGTV Canada’s top contractors and designers meet the family, tour their property and learn exactly what is needed to transform their home. 

With the help of friends and neighbours, HGTV’s contractors renovate the home to reflect each family’s unique needs. It was really important that this family have some separate space for relaxation, so of course that meant a backyard bunkie from Bunkie Life!
