New Orleans
Ty Pennington and the show’s designers are heading to the final stop on their 50-state tour to surprise the Usea family of Westwego, LA, and the Noah’s Ark Missionary Baptist Church in New Orleans, with the news that they’ll be rebuilding the Useas’ homes as well as the church in just seven days, on the two-part Season Finale of “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,” In a first-ever effort to put together a coalition of past builders from all over the country, “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” is calling on the building industry to join forces and help with what may be the toughest challenge yet. With Hurricane Katrina still taking a toll on families on the road to recovery and resources and manpower scarce, it will take the efforts of the entire country to come together to make a difference.
Deltec Homes has gathered construction talent from their home state of North Carolina, including The EcoBuilders, Round House Consulting and Jones Construction, and from all over the gulf region, including G & S Construction and Shultz Construction from Mississippi, and Dana Dugas Affordable Homes, Inc., Barker Homes of New Orleans, David W. Stewart, Inc. and Rutledge Builders from Louisiana, Sterling Homes of South Carolina, Simmons Homes of Oklahoma, Jeff Junkert Construction of Montana, Heritage Homes of North Dakota, Shoemaker Homes of Mississippi, Alure Home Improvement of New York, Capitol Homes of Tennessee and Atreus Homes, and Communities of North Carolina, Georgia, New Mexico and Arizona. Each team will gather volunteers, subs and trades from each state and travel to New Orleans for the week of the build.
