Laisse faire, j'vais le faire!
2010
The main entrance of the house opens into the Great Room, making this space very important to Rob since he wants to wow all the visitors. By opening the space up and extending it to the water, Rob wants to turn this room from boring to soaring. A custom fireplace, new marble floors and a unique ceiling application are sure to transform this space.
Rob and his ninjas transform the master bedroom from a small afterthought into a massive room fit for a king. Elegant hardwood floors, wallpaper, a custom fireplace and floor to ceiling windows will prove challenging to install, but ultimately are worth the work.
The pool at Rob's latest project leaves much to be desired, it's small, enclosed and boring, which is a huge mistake on this lake front property because it obscures the beautiful view. Rob rips off the enclosure and gets to work. He wants to replace the original pool with a custom infinity edge paradise, complete with a champagne hot tub and beach shelf. However, plumbing problems continue to push his timeline and budget, and Rob worries that he may not get finished in time.
The kitchen and dining room at Rob's latest lakeside retreat are bland, boring and plain. Rob wants to have an open floor plan in his kitchen, so he knocks out several walls to bring it up to date. Brand new glazed kitchen cabinets, state of the art appliances and custom counter tops bring this kitchen to future. Since people love to congregate in the kitchen and dining room, he wants to create a natural flow between the two rooms. Rob knocks out more walls in the dining room and installs a custom painted dome and chandelier to make the dining room dazzle.
Rob wants to go big with this master suite bathroom. So big in fact that he's blowing out walls to create a luxe master bathroom and walk-in closet. Rob is going to put the sweet in master suite by building a custom concrete in-ground bathtub, DIY sauna and an oversized his and hers vanity.
The ninjas embrace their inner children when it comes to the kids' bedrooms and play area. Outside, Rob imagines a play area fit for an adventurer with a giant temple, airplane treehouse, splash pad and fountain. Inside, Rob gets creative and installs a secret door which leads from room to room. As Rob turns his dream into reality, he discovers that embracing his inner kid is a sure-fire way to appeal to everyone!
Rob has big plans to turn the upstairs area into a gamer's paradise, complete with a custom bowling alley, gaming station, bar and private entrance. In order to bring his vision to life, the ninjas knock down walls and install sliding doors that lead out to a brand-new balcony and spiral staircase. When the ninjas are done, the only thing left to do is get their game on!
The backyard is a hot mess, but Rob has plans to turn the outdoor space into a calm and cool oasis. The ninjas dig out a lounge area and install an ice bar that keeps drinks cold all day long. A custom dock also acts as a helicopter landing pad and fishing spot. Things get wild when Wes catches a gator. Will he tame the reptile or end up swimming with the fish?
2018
Rob and his right-hand man, Wes, are on a treasure hunt for their next project in Palm Beach, Florida. They check out four properties that have a lot of potential, but they also need a ton of work. After a scary situation leaves them spooked, the choice is clear, and Rob is ready to take on his biggest project yet.
After surveying the property and running the numbers, Rob determines the only way to take his latest project in Palm Beach, Florida, from zero to hero is by starting from scratch. But it's a race against the clock because he and his crew only have 90 days to demo and rebuild the shell. In classic ninja style, they get straight to work tearing down walls ... by any means necessary!
At Rob's latest project in Palm Beach, Florida, the current state of the pool spells disaster. It's small and square, not to mention filthy, so Rob designs a whole new look for this outdated eyesore to make it pool party-worthy.

This home's big backyard is a huge selling point but there's a lot of wasted space. Rob and the ninjas get down to business installing a landing pad, a luxury hanger and getting the run-down tennis court ready for action.

Rob plans to spice up the kitchen and living room at his latest Wellington project by installing new bamboo flooring, appliances and real wood cabinets. The cherry on top is when the ninjas turn the dated and hated wet bar into a one-of-a-kind love seat.
The existing master suite at the Wellington house is not very sweet at all with its dark and cramped layout and builder's-grade bath. Rob and the ninjas take care of business by adding fresh paint and wallpaper to the master bedroom, a customized built-in closet and a wow-worthy master bath all on a tight budget.
The backyard at Rob's Wellington project has a ton of potential but the overgrown plants are blocking the view! By extending the patio, trimming trees and adding some TLC, the backyard is back and better than ever.

Rob and the ninjas are back in action looking for their next project, and Rob has his hands full with amazing properties. But, the house that speaks to Rob has big problems. Will the ninjas be able to see the potential?
Rob designs a VIP hibachi grill for the hero house with fiber-optic lights that change colors with the push of a button. It's safe to say the ninjas will be dining in style, so long as no one gets scorched in the process!
The existing pool looks more like a sewer than a swimming pool and it has got to go. But make no mistake, Rob has grand plans to turn this frog into a prince. By changing its location and giving it a whole new shape, it'll become the crown jewel it was always meant to be.
The kitchen's plain cabinets and countertops are a bore, but Rob has an idea to transform this dated space into a chef's retreat. Floor to ceiling sliders replace the far wall and provide a view to the ocean. Brand new appliances and a window backsplash bring this kitchen into the 21st century.
The current entryway is dated and hated, so the ninjas open up the space and add modern glass features and a high-tech elevator. Talk about taking things to the next level!
Technology and style go toe-to-toe when the ninjas tackle the spare rooms and game room. White walls disappear as an underwater mural takes shape and marine windows are installed. The final touch -- a virtual reality gaming system that blows any competition out of the water!
Rob and the ninjas give the master bath a clean and serene upgrade with luxurious finishes. New marble floors, an elegant vanity and an all-glass shower make this a relaxation station fit for royalty.
Rob overhauls the master bedroom and transforms it into an oasis with a view. Glass doors replace the entire wall and open up to a brand new balcony with its own spiral staircase. His final touch is a TV that drops from the ceiling, making channel surfing a breeze!
The ninjas are tasked with shaking up the main living room in this house and they're well prepared for the job! They install all-new lighting to brighten up the dark space while the newly installed ceiling tiles add a touch of glamour. The finishing touch is a fabulous sea-inspired chandelier that takes center stage bringing the spirit of the ocean indoors.
This property's unsightly guesthouse is the only thing standing in the way of its curb appeal, and the ninjas are ready to face it head-on. After putting in the effort to remove the structure, they get busy taking care of the lawn. With a little effort, the ninjas work pays off as the grass is greener than ever and the property looks like a dream.
After taking a trip to the Kennedy Space Center, Rob gets an out-of-this-world idea for an outdoor water feature - a rocket-themed splash pad! The interstellar splash pad has all the bells and whistles including water jets and lights that make this outdoor oasis perfect for relaxing or just letting loose.
A great house is not complete without the ultimate garage and the ninjas know it has to be functional, organized and secure to protect the rides inside. Rob goes above and beyond on the project by adding a TV and lounge seating for a multifunctional space that shines. New pavers and a dazzling front gate make this one garage that's hard to drive by.
The hard work has been completed and it's time to reveal the masterpiece! Every inch of the house has been fully updated, customized and improved from the inside out. What emerges is a beautiful space perfect for entertaining, relaxing or just having fun. This home keeps it real and at the end of the day, that's what seals the deal.
