As a dedicated fan of home renovation TV—and having tackled renovations in my own home myself—I'm always hunting for interior inspiration. My daughter Lotte shares the passion, often begging to watch these shows. Nothing beats cozying up on the couch and peeking into others' transformations. But live schedules rarely align with our lives. That's why streaming TV shows online has become our go-to solution.

My love for these shows stems from my hands-on experience renovating our house and sourcing fresh interior ideas. Lotte, on the other hand, is hooked purely for the fun of it—maybe dreaming of becoming an interior designer. Her current favorite is The Perfect Renovation, a standout series where two architects craft tailored renovation plans based on homeowners' wishes.
What sets this show apart is its innovative use of 3D visualizations via VR glasses. Homeowners virtually 'walk' through their living room as walls shift, windows appear, doors install, and full interiors materialize—it's mesmerizing. They choose between the two contrasting designs, execute the winner, and reveal the stunning results, budget details included. This guided process gives viewers (and homeowners) a clear preview of the outcome, making it both educational and entertaining.
That said, our busy schedules—sports, homework, studying—mean we rarely catch episodes live. Whether it's home shows or others, seamless catch-up viewing is a game-changer for us.
Recording works, but remembering to set it and enduring unskippable ads is frustrating—especially with commercial-heavy episodes. Streaming changes everything: via NLZIET, The Perfect Renovation plays ad-free, elevating the experience.
Beyond home shows, you can stream live or on-demand from:
No TV subscription? No problem—access these anywhere, on holiday or at home, via laptop, phone, smart TV, or tablet. I discovered this gem while chasing my favorite home shows. Highly recommend it.
The Perfect Renovation tops our list, but we also enjoy Again in Love with Your House and Eigen Huis en Tuin. The latter has shifted from practical reno inspiration to sponsor spotlights, so we only catch it live by chance.
