00:01The average family home contains thousands of items we don't really need.
00:06And living in all this clutter is making us miserable.
00:10But imagine if the entire contents of your home were laid out before you.
00:19This is unbelievable.
00:21So you could decide what to keep.
00:23Coffee machine.
00:25Get rid of you before I get rid of that.
00:26And what to lose.
00:28Mommy let's get rid of these.
00:29No way, no.
00:31I didn't think it would affect me as much as it is.
00:33Trying to go through our stuff.
00:35I know from experience the joy that can come from sorting your life out.
00:40A place dedicated to just organize snacks.
00:44Are you ready?
00:45And I've assembled a dream team to help me transform Britain's most cluttered homes.
00:50You in?
00:51Why have I got this short straw?
00:53Let's go.
00:55We'll clean.
00:55Woah.
00:57Organize.
00:57A lovely little pillow parcel.
01:00And upcycle what the families already have.
01:04Happy days.
01:05Money saved.
01:06Good, innit?
01:07Can we completely make over their homes without breaking the bank?
01:12Woah.
01:12It's me to you.
01:13No, no, no.
01:14Ah!
01:15All?
01:16All in just one week.
01:18Okay.
01:20Wow.
01:22Eww!
01:24Oh my God.
01:25Thought your life out in seven days.
01:27Whose idea was that?
01:38Oh my God.
01:39Didn't it look like my dad?
01:42Didn't it?
01:45Didn't it?
01:53Didn't it?
01:54How far was that?
01:56It was about three hours.
01:57It's not too bad.
02:00Wasn't as bumpy as this drive.
02:01Oh my God.
02:02Do you want to moan about it anymore?
02:04I'm here to help a family of four sort out their chaotic home.
02:08That is not Rob's van, is it?
02:11What?
02:13What?
02:14What time before this, guys?
02:15Cannot.
02:16Believe it.
02:17Something's not right.
02:18Oh, I've been early.
02:19Is this right here?
02:20No.
02:24I love you.
02:24Here they are.
02:25Have you seen the size of this place?
02:27We need you.
02:28Hello.
02:29I've got a kid's love.
02:30Oh, I like that.
02:32Yeah!
02:33We're in Essex!
02:34We're in Essex!
02:35We're in Essex!
02:36Well, Ken.
02:37Same thing, innit?
02:40This house belongs to Kelly and Dan.
02:42Kelly runs two businesses from home.
02:44Dan works for the police.
02:46They've got two young children and they've also just moved in the grandparents because
02:50grandma is not very well.
02:51So they've had to convert the garage into an annex and now they need help inside the house.
02:57Do we see what we're dealing with before we run away and say let's not help?
03:02The family are out for the day so that we can have a snoop around and find out what's in
03:06store.
03:07It's so big!
03:08That's grandma and granddaughter's house I think.
03:10Amazing.
03:12Oh my goodness!
03:14In this home there are four bedrooms, an office, kitchen and family room.
03:21And with the former garage being emptied into the house, all rooms are now bursting at the seams with stuff.
03:27Is this a front room?
03:29It's a mess, that's what it is.
03:31When they've cleared the garage out, they've just shoved it all in here.
03:35I think when you're converting a space and turning it into something else, it's about being practical and not just
03:40doing the easy thing of let's just spread it around the house, find a place for it, shove it away
03:45and that'll do.
03:45Because what ends up happening is it will bite you in the bum later on in life.
03:49There's toys in here but there's nowhere to play.
03:52But there is a TV.
03:53But how are you going to see it through all the prams?
03:55Yeah.
03:56Maybe this is just the room that gets everything dumped in and everywhere else will be clear.
04:02Wishful thinking.
04:03In just two days, we are going to strip the entire house and then display all the possessions in a
04:09giant warehouse.
04:10To the kitchen.
04:12Oh my goodness.
04:14Can you even see a surface?
04:16No, but they probably don't have any systems in their cupboards.
04:18Open a cupboard, Rob.
04:20And yes, you were right.
04:22It's a lot of paperwork.
04:24Oh, Ewan!
04:26Oh, yay!
04:28My first plan.
04:29Oh no.
04:31Why are you all all knowing?
04:33This is adorable.
04:34Oh my goodness.
04:35It's such a special time, the first haircut.
04:39This kitchen is next level bad in the drawers.
04:42It is, but he's got loads of police medals.
04:44Oh wow.
04:45This should be pride and place somewhere.
04:47What is that?
04:48That is not a chihuahua.
04:50No, that belongs to a rather big animal.
04:53What's he drinking out of that?
04:54I don't know why he's eating up there as well.
04:56If that's the size of its food, I dread to have a look in the garden.
05:02So this must be master bedroom.
05:05Upstairs, Dilly and I make a start on mum and dad's bedroom.
05:09It's a really big space.
05:10Wow.
05:10I feel like they've not had the time to finish anything and to get anything the way they really wanted
05:16it.
05:16It's just such a shame.
05:18Look how much stuff they've got in here.
05:20People think that big houses mean less clutter, but that is absolutely not the case.
05:24There's no order.
05:25When you've got more space, you buy more stuff, collect more stuff and hold on to more stuff.
05:30So you'd end up in a worse position than if you had minimal space and you knew that you had
05:34to cater to that space.
05:36Look at all these odd socks.
05:38I have a sock monster.
05:40100% have a sock monster or gremlin or something that lives inside my machine and robs a sock from
05:44each pair.
05:45I'll tell you what's happened.
05:46You've walked around your room.
05:47You've picked out the washing.
05:48You just picked it up with the towel, chucked it in the washing machine.
05:51You thought you picked up too.
05:52You didn't.
05:53I did.
05:53You didn't.
05:54There's a sock monster.
05:56What are we going to do with these socks?
05:57Wow.
05:58There must be a pair among it.
06:00Because of your outfit.
06:03Just have a little relax.
06:05I'll rub your tummy.
06:06Socks out.
06:06No, she's like, Dilly, don't sort the socks out.
06:09No, she's saying sort the socks.
06:10No, she's not.
06:11Put them...
06:12Very cluttered.
06:13Rob and Ewan check out eldest daughter Harriet's bedroom.
06:17I think she might be a gymnast.
06:19All these lovely medals.
06:23Lots of crafts, girls.
06:25Coaster.
06:27Go.
06:29Go.
06:30Go.
06:32Go.
06:33Go.
