Say goodbye to the world of miracle makeovers and sleepy do-it-yourself instructional shows. This is HouseSmarts, a 30-minute home improvement program hosted by Lou Manfredini. As a contractor and a broadcaster (NBC's Today Show, WGN Radio), Lou has created this high-energy half-hour weekly program to combine the best of both worlds for television audiences: useful home improvement knowledge and an entertaining look into the projects of real homeowners. Each week HouseSmarts answers the questions homeowners really want to know. Nobody adds on a room in one weekend, or lets their neighbors decorate their living room. HouseSmarts follows the progress of real people and lessons learned. You can also tune into HOUSESMARTS RADIO on 77-WABC New York Saturdays from 7am-8am EST! Lou answers your calls LIVE at 800-848-WABC.

HouseSmarts stays up on the latest trends. Whether it's an inside industry look behind the scenes at a trade show, or in the show room of a high-end designer, Lou makes keeping up on the newest and best things out there a breeze. The reality of this show is that it pays to work smart. HouseSmarts is for real homeowners.
