HGTV Canada pays it forward with an all-star cast in
the powerful, heartwarming new Corus Studios original series, Family Home
Overhaul (8×60), premiering Sunday, April 26 at 10 p.m.
ET/PT. Viewers will get a first look at the series with a special sneak
peek on April 19 during the season finale of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
Hosted by ET Canada‘s Cheryl Hickey, the debut season will
see 14 of the network’s top contractors and designers pair up in each episode
to transform the homes of eight inspirational families nominated by their
communities.
Whether it’s providing shelter to those in need, overcoming
life-altering health issues, or donating all of their time and resources to
support a cause close to their heart – these eight homeowners are always the
first to give back to their communities, despite the personal hardships they
encounter. With little time for the four walls around them, these families
could use a major home renovation.
Together with Cheryl Hickey, HGTV Canada contractors and designers
Kate Campbell, Sebastian Clovis, Dave Coleman, Joey Fletcher,
Sarah Keenleyside, Dave Kenney, Brian McCourt, Scott
McGillivray, Mia Parres, Tiffany Pratt, Samantha Pynn, Tommy
Smythe, Kortney Wilson and Dave Wilson, work together to
provide these selfless families with life-changing renovations.
Enlisting the help of friends and neighbours, each project is
customized to perfectly reflect the unique needs of each family. While the
renovation is underway, the family gets whisked away on a well-deserved one
week vacation. Upon their return, the remarkable reveal of their newly
renovated home is celebrated by the community and team that made it all happen.
“Family Home Overhaul is an outstanding example of our
growing Corus Studios slate – driving home captivating storytelling through
giving back to the families who have made such an extraordinary impact in their
communities,” said Lisa Godfrey, Vice President of Original Content, Corus
Entertainment. “We can’t wait for audiences to see our HGTV Canada stars
lend their unmatched expertise and skills to help these incredible homeowners
in this powerful new series.”
