The popular show, which premiered in 2011, features twin brothers Jonathan and Drew Scott working with local contractors to create a dream home for the people who appear on it. Although the owner pays for it, they get the Scotts` expertise for free. “We always aim for customer satisfaction in all the projects we carry out. Concerning the project at 7400 . Ave was contacted by a production company and commissioned with them to participate in several conversion projects. At the end of this project, the first detailed list of construction defects created by the owner was completed. We were made aware of other matters, some of which were not brought to our attention until more than a year after the completion of the work, when the owner requested a third-party inspection by the Nevada State Contractor`s Board (NSCB). We cooperated with the inspection and tried to work with the owner to resolve the short list of points identified by the NSCB. Access to the house was refused by the owner. The NSCB made the decision to close the case on October 21, 2020 by letter stating, “Since you have not granted the contractor access to make the necessary corrections, we will not take any further action.” We understand that the owner is now pursuing a legal claim, and so we have no further comments at this time.
The hosts of the popular home renovation show, twin brothers Jonathan and Drew Scott, are not in the lawsuit and founded their own production company, Scott Brothers Entertainment, in 2019. This is the current production company behind the Property Brothers. A Las Vegas couple is currently filing a lawsuit after allegedly finding problems with the renovation of their home, which was featured in an episode of HGTV`s Property Brothers. However, the production company named in the lawsuit transmits a different version of events. As a reminder, the Scott brothers make their design skills available in each episode of the series and work with local contractors to create a dream home for the family. However, the owners still have to pay the bill. In this case, the Kings paid more than $193,000 for their 2019 home renovation, money they transferred to Cineflix. the second video of @TheZenBlonde is even worse.
He creates an invoice from Property Brothers` interior designer, which is compiled randomly, but magically adds to the owners` $15,000 budget. Worst of all, however, is the revelation that the electrician hired by the Scotts was not allowed to work. Hiring an unlicensed contractor is illegal in Nevada. The kings also said that they trusted on behalf of the Brothers of the Property, which is why they accepted all the work. The couple`s claims regarding the access they granted the contractor to repair the damage to the house – that is, the property remained empty for two months before the couple moved in, and they allowed the contractors to enter the house more than 10 times over a period of four months after moving in – were contradicted at the NSCB, after closing the complaint, citing the kings, for refusing to let the contractor in. Villa Construction and Cineflix both agreed. For the avoidance of doubt, in order for the Scott brothers to work with local contractors on the properties featured on the show, the owners must first bear the expenses in each episode. In addition, the Scott brothers` lawyers made their own statement to Channel 9: IATSE and a major local media union filed a lawsuit against Cineflix Media in 2018 to ensure better wages and working conditions for independent employees of factual and reality TV. Before taking legal action, the couple claimed they had given Cineflix and Villa Construction enough time to resolve the issues they had identified in their home. Nevertheless, production and construction companies have so far denied this.
Paul and Mindy King told KTNY that they were suing Cineflix (the company that produces Property Brothers) and local contractor Villa Construction, who worked on their home after discovering exposed wires, uneven skirting boards, misplaced doors and a series of renovations that were not carried out in accordance with the code. The brothers themselves were not named in the trial. Before taking legal action, the kings say they gave Cineflix and the entrepreneur plenty of time to get it right. The Kings paid more than $193,000 to Cineflix for their home renovation in 2019 after hearing about a 2018 Property Brothers casting call. With the promise of a perfect HGTV quality conversion, the couple said they had spent a honeymoon to put money aside and sign the contract that guaranteed all the work would be done by code. Cineflix issued the following statement from its lawyers: The Council of Entrepreneurs closed the complaint, citing the kings for refusing to let the contractor in. Villa Construction and Cineflix say the same thing. Both refused to be interviewed in front of the camera.
According to the Kings, as soon as they unveiled the completed renovations to their home, they knew there were problems, but the producers asked them to be delighted. Mindy claimed that they had to shoot the revelation four times to get the right catch. Other owners featured in HGTV`s renovation shows shared their own stories, suggesting that aggressive coaching tactics are sometimes used to ensure the right answer is filmed. For local workers in Canadian versions, the reduced royalties paid by domestic broadcasters mean that independent reality producers will continue to hire cheaper and more flexible freelancers as they work long hours and tighter deadlines to air episodes. Despite Drew and Jonathan Scott`s goal of helping couples dig up their dream homes with “state-of-the-art” programs for construction and renovation, the production company behind Property Brothers now faces a lawsuit from a Las Vegas couple who allegedly found several problems with renovating their home, which was featured in an episode of the hit reality series HGTV. The couple, Paul and Mindy King, claimed that the wires were exposed, the doors were not hung properly, that the false backsplash had been put in place, and that not all renovations were code compliant, as they tell KTNY in the video above. Now they are suing the production company Cineflix (which produces Property Brothers) as well as the local construction company Villa Construction, which worked on their home. Drew and Jonathan Scott, the stars of the Property Brothers, are not named in the lawsuit. The third video, released two days ago, is the worst of all.
It turns out that lawyers for the Scotts, the production company and the construction company all made contradictory statements. This, according to Gossip Cop, doesn`t do wonders for their credibility. @TheZenBlonde then published emails between the Kings and scotts (through their production company), and the emails show that the Scotts have nothing to do with the “nice” personality they are trying to portray on their shows. In response, the Scotts claim that the Kings are only looking for money. The Scotts also claim that the Kings are trying to tarnish their Hollywood reputation. A representative of the reality TV stars declined to comment on the lawsuit because they are not named. “This is an obvious attempt by kings to attract attention and make money while the case is still in court,” Cineflix said in a statement to the New York Times. “They told us they wanted us to be their first episode,” King said. “So we immediately started taking all the necessary measures. The New York Times reports that some homeowners have participated in popular home renovation shows such as “Property Brothers,” “Love It or List It,” “Flip or Flop Las Vegas,” and “Renovate My Family” sued the producers of those series after the work done didn`t go as planned.
