The Extreme Makeover Home Edition Crew built a home for William and Tricia Creasey and their family in Lexington, NC this past November. Now it will be officially aired Jan 31st 2010.

Hedrick Creative Building was selected as the builders. See http://www.hedrickextreme.com/ for all the details about the home, family and builder.

It will be exciting to see this on TV as it was exciting to watch it in person while the home was built in 7 days.

It was a thrill to witness the ABC Extreme Home Makeover show come to Lexington, NC. They built a new home for a family that was in need of a new home. We parked at the nearby Walmart and used the provided shuttle bus that took spectators back and forth to view the 1 week build, it was amazing of all the volunteers. The show is scheduled to air early in 2010.

The builder was a local reputable company - Hedrick Creative Building
