Sledgehammer Episodes
Giving a 1970s Kitchen a Cool Mid Century Vibe
Homeowners Jon and Maranda Meyer moved into Jon's grandparents' home and it is stuck in the 1970s. They want to smash the old kitchen and an upstairs bathroom.

His plan calls for an open kitchen and living area with a huge kitchen island, a custom hutch and a refurbished sofa that belonged to Jon's grandparents.
Smashing a Dark Old Attic Into New Bedrooms and Play Spaces
Jason Cameron offers the Good family the Sledgehammer challenge. Everything they smash in 30 minutes, he'll fix. When they smash their dark, old attic, he transforms the space into one bedroom fit for a princess and another fit for an explorer. Plus, Jason's plans include cool features such as built-ins, an exploration table, a reading nook and an LED lighted runway for fashion shows. What more could two fun little kids want?
Building a Teak Spa Like Bathroom for a Busy Mom
When Brad and Kate Thoss take the sledgehammer to their bathroom and bedroom closet, Jason Cameron builds a spa like retreat.

The homeowners didn't finish smashing the kids' bathroom, but they were inspired to fix it up with a new shower and vanity.
Transforming a Cubicle Kitchen Into an Open Rustic Industrial Space
Homeowners Grahm and Ashley Halcomb want to smash their kitchen that looks like a cubicle planted in the middle of their open floor plan and the tiny tub in the bathroom.

The homeowners didn't finish smashing their bathroom so the fix is up to them, but Jason has an unique suggestion to replace the tiny tub.

Whatever they smash, Jason Cameron will fix. They don't finish the kitchen, but the basement is all on Jason. His plan calls for a cool painted ceiling, custom vinyl banquettes, a special wood wall treatment and everything you'd find in an English style pub.
Smashing a Cramped Kitchen
Homeowners Rich and April Robles smash their cramped galley kitchen and their underused basement storage area so that Jason Cameron will build them a new kitchen, dining area, family room and office. Jason creates a recycled wood backsplash, brings in glossy cabinets and a huge island with an interesting color change. Plus, Jason turns the old basement area into a new home office with a custom cork board wall and recycled office furniture to turn the room into a space that Rich calls his Nerd Hole.
Building a New Kitchen With Unique and Accessible Features
When Ben and Lynne Adams want to open up their first floor to make the space more accessible to their son Ben who lives with visual impairment, they use the power of the Sledgehammer to make it happen. After the walls are smashed, Jason Cameron comes in to build a kitchen that has many unique and accessible features. Jason builds a custom bench with built-in storage for plates to allow young Ben to assist with table setting, he adds adjustable under-cabinet lighting to allow Ben to better see what he's doing and a unique microwave to make sure Ben can help prepare meals.
Bedrooms and Bath for Brothers
When John and Lisa Hilbert use sledgehammers to smash the third floor of their old home, Jason Cameron plans to build cool new spaces for their three sons. The plan calls for a new room for their teenager featuring an unusual use for marine paint and a pine board wall, plus a bedroom for the two younger boys that features built-in beds and a custom gaming cabinet with a TV lift. Jason also plans to build a boy friendly bathroom with tile on the floor and walls and an automatic flushing urinal.
Building a Mad, Mod Basement for Grown Ups and Kids to Share
When Annie and Mark Drahman accepted Jason Cameron's challenge to smash all the rooms they hate in 30 minutes, they decided to tackle their basement and basement bathroom. They completed the basement with the promise that Jason would turn it into a mod family and entertaining space. They failed on the bathroom so it's up to them to finish that room. Jason takes on the challenge by upcycling a vintage bar, installing a cool vinyl floor, unique wall tiles and custom-built room dividers and storage cubbies for the kids. He also uses drapes to create a unique wall treatment and uplighting to give the space a mod, lounge vibe.
Building a Better Basement
When Michael and LaToya accept Jason Cameron's challenge to smash every room in the house that they hate in just 30 minutes, they decide to head to their ugly basement. They smash the old kitchenette, the hideous, not-to-code bathroom and the walls, leaving a wide open space for Jason to fix. The family wants a kid-friendly space that will double as a guest room for visiting relatives. Jason's plan for remodeling the basement includes a book case on a hinge to hide the utility room, a new bathroom with custom tiles designed by Michael and LaToya's children, a hidden bed for sleepovers and visitors, a reading nook for the kids, plus a retractable screen for family movie night.
Building a Master Suite and a Better Closet for Mom and Dad
Mike and Christie Pavia are DIYers who have rehabbed much of their home, but they've run out of steam and time when it comes to the master bedroom and bathroom after they had a second baby. They gladly accepted Jason Cameron's challenge to smash all the room they want in 30 minutes. They headed straight for the master bedroom where tiny closets couldn't hold their clothes and an ugly pink bathroom made them cringe. When the dust settled, Jason got to work creating custom closets with remote control features that allow Mike and Christie easy access to their clothes and shoes, a beautiful glass tile shower with a special design, and a custom vanity.
Turning a Cramped Space Into a Retro Farm Kitchen
With no dishwasher, no wall cabinets, little counterspace and a tiny pantry, Brian and Ashley Schefold were eager to take a sledgehammer to their cramped kitchen. Jason Cameron gave them 30 minutes to smash the kitchen and their peeling porch, and whatever they completely demolished, Jason promised to fix. They smashed the kitchen, but their porch was a failure. Jason remodels their kitchen with features such as a rehabbed farm sink, retro cabinets and countertops and a faux tin ceiling to match their 100-year-old house. With some advice from Jason, the homeowners were able to finish the porch project on their own.
Transforming a Laundry Room Into the Ultimate Drop Zone
Paul and Heather Frietch have their hands full with four girls under the age of 10, but they want to add some organization to their busy, chaotic lives with a new drop zone. Jason Cameron gives them sledgehammers and 30 minutes to get the job done. They manage to smash the laundry room and guest bathroom, but they come up short when it comes to the kitchen. Jason promises to remodel the laundry area into the ultimate drop zone with a huge pantry, cubbies for the girls, built-in laundry baskets and a message command center. It's a space that will help this family get organized and out the door.
