The hometown favourites will feature on Monday's (October 18) episode where they will go head-to-head with former Block contestants, Jess and Norm.

The series will be similar to The Block, but contestants will be judged on how environmentally friendly and energy efficient the renovations are.

The show involves two teams each episode who aim to convince a family that they have the best solution to provide more space, comfort and reduced energy bills.

"We want people to get excited about things like insulation and high home energy ratings the same way they would get excited about a new kitchen benchtop," executive producer of the show, James McGregor said.
