Your house doesn't come with a manual. We're the next best thing.
Whether you're DIY or looking to hire, we're here to help you find the best information and options for you and your home. Every week, Craig Williams and Kevin Hackett break down what every Houston homeowner actually needs to know: maintenance, repairs, hiring, and the questions nobody else will answer straight.
What's normal, and what's a warning sign. When to DIY, and when to pick up the phone. What things should actually cost, and how to hire a contractor without holding your breath. That's what The Homeowners Show is for: straight talk from two guys who've spent their lives in and around Houston homes, delivered the way a knowledgeable neighbor would explain it over the fence. No scare tactics. No sales pitch. We just want you to be the best homeowner on the block.
Craig and Kevin have put out 364 episodes since September 2018, and all of it is about owning a home in and around Houston, TX.
Craig put together a side by side of 12 housing indicators from 2006 and 2026, and he and Kevin spent the back half of this episode working through what the numbers actually say about home affordability. Before that, football.
Kevin and Craig are back in the studio after about ten days apart, and they start with college football. Craig lays out Texas A&M's third straight SEC loss, to LSU, Kentucky and Missouri, and argues the offensive coordinator is the part of the problem nobody is talking about.
Kevin Hackett and Craig Williams recorded this one earlier in the day than usual because Craig has a trip coming up. They open with the new website and the newsletter signup at the bottom of the homepage, which emails you the links every time a new episode and the shorts go out, then spend a while on the college football weekend.
Kevin Hackett and Craig Williams got a VIP tour of The Den, the career and technology education campus for Montgomery ISD, and superintendent Mark Ruffin walked them through it. The Den stands for Discover, Explore, Navigate.

Kevin's spent years working alongside the contractors who build and fix those homes, bringing the homeowner's side of every conversation. Read their full story →
