Beginning with the second season in 2001, Paige Davis took over as host, with the new production company Banyan Productions of Philadelphia. After the first 40 episodes, McLeod left to pursue other television opportunities. The first season featured original host Alex McLeod and some designers who never returned to the show, such as Dez Ryan and Roderick Shade, and was produced by Knoxville, Tennessee–based RVIR Media. Ty Pennington, one of the show's original carpenters, later hosted Extreme Makeover: Home Edition on ABC. The teams are not allowed to enter their own home for the duration of the show, and the transformed rooms are revealed only at the end of the final day. The teams have no say over what happens in their own homes, but they are able to give input into what happens in the home they are redecorating. Although the producers generally allowed the teams to go over budget slightly, there was one instance when a designer went $150 over budget and the producers forced her to return a rug she bought for the project. Both teams in early seasons shared one carpenter, while later on, each team had a carpenter. Each two-person team had two (later, three) days, a budget of US$1,000, (later $2,000) and the services of a designer. In each episode, two sets of neighbors redecorated one room in each other's home. A revival began airing on April 7, 2018, with several team members of the original run returning. The first iteration ran for eight seasons. The format of the show was based on the BBC TV series Changing Rooms. Trading Spaces is an hour-long American television reality program that originally aired from 2000 to 2008 on the cable channels TLC and Discovery Home.
