Because of the show being a television series, costs for the homeowners, who are likely to be strapped for cash due to the previous contractors' mistakes and/or frauds, are kept to a minimum (10% to 20% of the cost of repair). Some contractors hired on the show have even donated time, materials, and labor to help homeowners in need. The remainder of the work is funded by the TV production company (and indirectly, through the Canadian government, by tax credits), but in some cases, Mike Holmes personally contributes funds towards the repairs.

When will Holmes on Homes be back on tv?
Holmes on Homes has been reincarnated as Holmes Inspection. Mike Holmes goes into an owner's recently purchased home and finds any of the problems the original home inspector (if there was one) missed. From what I understand the major fixes are up to Damon Bennett and Crew while Mike leaves the minor things for the homeowner themselves. Mike is not seen a lot in this series, it seems to focus more on Damon and The Crew. They are presently gearing up for season three.
