Alison Victoria failed to impress Windy City Rehab fans tonight. In her latest episode, Alison renovated a Chicago suburb home by adding personal elements to the newly constructed house.

Windy City Rehab fans disliked Alison's latest home renovation
In her latest episode, which aired on May 26, Alison Victoria failed to impress Windy City Rehab fans with her renovation project. She took upon the challenging task of renovating a new suburban home and installed a brass door instead of a main gate, which fans felt was unnecessary. They also felt that the gates were not positioned correctly and were more inclined to the left.
Thye disliked the positioning and style of the banquette. Fans also disliked the greyish tile colors and the mixed elements between the old and the new.
What happened on Windy City Rehab tonight?
Tonight on Windy City Rehab, Alison renovated a big suburban house, mixing together antique and new elements. The clients asked Alison to add personal elements to the home. She decided to install brass doors for the main gate, giving the home a unique look. She and Ari also constructed a new brew room in the basement.
The episode description read,
"Alison takes on a project to rescue her clients from a bad floor plan in the Chicago suburb of Evanston. She'll have to juggling a huge budget, tight timelines and demanding homeowners as she struggles to keep the renovation on track."
Alison chose wooden tiles for the floor that were painted in a weathered grey shade. She decided to put white quartz marble on the kitchen countertop. Alison removed the dining room and instead installed a custom banquette right next to the kitchen door.
Alison decided to install an antique mantle and a modern looking firelplace. She changed the layout of the second floor and gave the main suite's bathroom not one but two access points, thus making the bathroom accessible from the bedroom and walk-in-closet.
The overall look of the home gave a mix of old and new elements. The home was painted in a horizontal-vertical design mixed between tiles and wooden materials.
The clients had purchased the house for $375,000 and had a budget of 1 million Dollars. Alison went a little overbudget and took 18 months to complete the project.
