In south east London, Ronny and Naeema Reder are building their dream family home. But it's not long before Ronny's attention to detail causes friction between him and his builders, Jorge and Luisa Laranja. However, this tension is soon forgotten as Luisa and Jorge receive tragic news that could affect the very future of the project. In Shropshire, Sue Jones has razed her old family home to the ground. But when the build progresses faster than she had anticipated, Sue is faced with a major cash flow issue, forcing a go-slow for her builder Keith Mayer.
