While Paul and Mindy King agreed to appear on "Property Brothers" hoping to receive the screen-worthy, forever home renovation of their dreams, they ended up exceptionally unhappy with the house they were left with. The couple filed a lawsuit on January 14, 2021 against Cineflix Media, the Property Brothers production company, and Villa Construction, the Nevada contractor employed by the network for the renovation.
In the original legal complaint, the couple asked for $1.477 million in reparations, naming over 90 issues with the home. A story by KNTV features the Kings showcasing some of the problems they've been faced with, ranging from the cosmetic, such as uneven baseboards and crooked grout lines, to the serious, such as exposed wiring and out-of-code electrical work.
While Mindy filed a complaint with the Nevada State Contractors Board in 2020, the subsequent investigation only listed 10 items for Villa Construction to address. The construction company and Cineflix have since maintained that the Kings refuse to allow the contractors into the house to fix the outlined defects, a claim the couple denies.
