We had Mr. Holmes here in Edmonton at the last home show a month or so ago and he is just like he is on the television show. He's obviously been a GC for a long time because no one could ask a home reno question that he didn't have a good answer for. I watch the show whenever I get the chance and he always "does it right" - usually way above any of the codes I'm familiar with.
I respect the guy. We need more folks like him around.
BTW, he stands about 6 feet tall. I'm 5'8" and he had me beat by about 4".
