Landscape architects wrestle multi-ton boulders into retaining walls, Paula gets a door-staining lesson, and Kevin explores how Biltmore Village is bouncing back from the storm.

James Beard award-winning restaurants are reopening, the mountain water that flooded everything also makes great beer, and the North Asheville chimney finally gets resolved — spoiler: they went with an insert.

A nonprofit workshop pours a vanity top with sand from the Swannanoa River, Jenn sends soil samples to the lab, and Kevin finds out that antiquing after a hurricane has a whole different vibe.

Kevin tours a Georgia carpet factory (it's more interesting than it sounds), Miah's kitchen island gets a butcher block top, and the North Asheville boulder wall gets planted with succulents.

One year after Hurricane Helene, all five families walk through the doors of their rebuilt homes. It's the finale we've been building toward for eleven episodes, and yes, you will cry.
