In Australia, it is almost as if renovating is a national, sport and everyone knows the story, get it right and reap the rewards get it wrong and it could cost you big time.

Australian Property Style is 10 part series designed for anyone interested in undertaking a renovation, providing practical tips and information on how to improve your lifestyle, all while increasing the value of your home.

Each episode will feature the trials, tribulations, tears and triumphs of one Aussie renovation. Throughout each show we watch and learn as we witness first hand how getting down and dirty can pay big.

Our renovators come from all walks of life – from Grant, a retrenched CEO  with something to prove to himself, to Clare, one of Australia’s leading female Tattoo artists their reasons may vary, but their motivation the same. MONEY.

Every program will provide an insight into a particular type of renovation. It could be a bathroom, a kitchen, an upstairs or even a new garden. During the course of the show we will visit the renovation to witness its progress, ensuring lessons learnt by our homeowners can be shared with you at home.

Leading estate agent John McGrath and ‘2009 Renovation builder of the year’ Luke Van Dyke will value and asses the house before and after the renovation, just to see whether our renovators got it right. They will provide practical information to our homeowners attempting to steer them in the path of greater return, but will our renovators heed their advice?

Hosted by veteran renovator Karina Brown, Australian Renovations follows the journey of real renovators; struggling with real budgets, and seemingly unreal timeframes. Question is – what will they, their relationship and their house be like when it comes time for the big reveal?

Australian Renovations is a brand new lifestyle series designed to inspire, entertain and inform all Australians about the pitfalls, realities and joys that come with making your house a more beautiful and function home.
