Moving the McGillivrays - Season 1 (2016)

Scott McGillivray and family search for a bigger home for their growing brood, but what they find has some major hidden problems.

Scott makes a painstaking decision about his new home, while also taking on a huge charitable project to build a deserving family their own home.

Scott builds the cheapest floor he can find and shares a painful memory that reveals why he’s so committed to charity.

Scott designs and builds something he’s wanted his whole life: a workshop. But not just any workshop, the perfect workshop.

Scott decides to treat Sabrina to a well deserved break and surprises her with a special trip while he takes care of the kids. Meanwhile, he begins work on a room that’s critical for the family’s overall happiness: a playroom. And while Scott rallies his and Sabrina’s families for some free-labour at the build site, he discovers a tiny tenant he can’t evict.

Sabrina and Scott prepare their old house for sale and the basement in-law suite suffers a big setback that requires open floor surgery.

Now that Scott and Sabrina’s old house has sold they are forced to move into the in-law suite of their new house – perfect for two, cramped for four.

Scott and Sabrina and their two girls are living in a cramped space meant for one or two people and it’s proving impossible to keep construction dust and workers out of their new pad.

After weeks of living in the cramped in-law suite, the McGillivrays are finally ready to move upstairs. Scott shows Sabrina how a trip to Vegas inspired their new master bedroom.

After a year of construction, the McGillivrays’ new home is finally complete and it’s time for a multi-room mega-reveals show, featuring a massive and bright kitchen, a living room fit for a giant.
