In the West Midlands town of Brownhills, carpenter Tom and kitchen and bathroom fitter Renaldo set out to renovate a run-down end-of-terrace and turn it into a modern family home. With their combined skills, the pair made a great start but when things start to slow down, their decision to go against presenter Simon O'Brien's advice proves costly.

Simon O'Brien, Tayo Oguntonade and Carys Davies buy two strangers a house at auction and give them a renovation budget and just months to flip it. Here, bathroom fitter David and air conditioning engineer Nathan are paired up to tackle a total makeover on an old house that has seen better days in Middleton, Greater Manchester. They are given a limited budget and just six months to turn it into a modern family home fit for the 21st century.
