Ashton Kutcher just upped the Mother’s-Day-gift game. As a recent surprise thank-you gift for his mom, Diane, he and his stepdad, Mark, secretly remodeled her Iowa basement the way she’d always wanted. The main living area now has a family-friendlier layout and display space for her antique collection. Two new windows brighten up a relocated bedroom. There’s now even a clever canning room for storing her famous homemade salsa.

A camera crew followed Ashton, Mark and their interior designer, Catherine Thomas, from the planning stages through construction to Diane’s reaction when she saw the result. Check out the preview trailer below or watch the entire four-part series now.


Watch: See Ashton Kutcher remodel his mom’s basement

Iowa basement
Ashton, shown here, spent much of his teen years in Homestead, Iowa (population: 148), living in a house he helped build with Mark.

Given that he lives in Los Angeles and his parents’ home is in Iowa, Ashton, a longtime Houzz user and investor, used the Houzz app to renovate the space. He created an ideabook, found a local interior designer in Iowa — Catherine Thomas — and bought nearly all the new furnishings from the Houzz Shop.
