Clint Harp of ‘Fixer Upper’ Fame Returns! Renovation Secrets From ‘Restoration Road’
Clint Harp made a name for himself as a carpenter on Chip and Joanna Gaines‘ hit show “Fixer Upper,” but now he’s flying solo with his own series on Discovery+, “Restoration Road.”
In the show, Harp travels the country to witness (and pitch in on) a variety of renovations of historic structures. In the series premiere, “Idaho Train Car,” Harp visits the small town of Deary, ID, where he meets Kevin Durkin of Heritage Restorations, who is turning an old train car into an elegant guesthouse.
The train car, which dates to the turn of the century, is really run down, but Durkin is determined to salvage this slice of history.
Read on to see this train car morph from a decrepit eyesore into a delightful home—a transformation packed with inspiration you may be able to use to preserve the history of your own abode, too.
