Erin and Ben Napier met while they were students at Jones County Junior College, near Laurel, Mississippi. They later enrolled at the University of Mississippi and were married in 2008. Their journey into television began after being featured in “Southern Weddings” magazine and on the magazine’s Instagram feed, which led to HGTV contacting them. This collaboration resulted in the creation of their American reality television series, “Home Town,” which premiered on January 24, 2016. In the series, the couple is known for restoring homes primarily in Laurel, Mississippi, focusing on preserving the historical character of each property while updating them for modern living. Erin Napier specializes in design, while Ben Napier focuses on woodworking and general contracting.
The success of “Home Town” led to the development of several spin-off series and significant recognition. On January 4, 2021, “Home Town: Ben’s Workshop” premiered on Discovery+, showcasing Ben’s woodworking skills. Another spin-off, “Home Town Takeover,” launched on May 2, 2021, and expanded their community revitalization efforts beyond Laurel, assisting other small towns. The first season of “Home Town Takeover” focused on Wetumpka, Alabama, followed by Fort Morgan, Colorado, for its second season in 2023, and Sebring, Florida, for its third season in 2025. In 2024, their alma mater, Jones College, honored them by naming the new Erin and Ben Napier School of Design and Building Arts building after them. This program aims to train students in skilled building design, carpentry, trades, and craftsmanship to address workforce gaps.
Throughout their career, Erin and Ben Napier have emphasized the importance of community and intentional living. Their work on “Home Town” involves taking potential clients through two or three home options, presenting a renovation plan, and then revealing the completed project.
