Budget Battlers on Channel 9 returns for season 2 – Former Block favourites Jess Eva and Norm Hogan are back, transforming homes and changing lives when Budget Battlers returns on Wednesday, October 22, at 7.30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
In the second season of this feelgood renovation series, Jess and Norm put their budget skills to the test by reimagining entire homes in just five days, working with a tight renovation budget of just $10,000.
Joining the team are a mix of fresh faces and familiar favourites. Real Housewives of Sydney star Melissa Tkautz comes onboard, along with Atlas Property Group Director Lachlan Vidler, and Angela Williams and Dave Matthews from Human Kind.
Supporting them are the ever-reliable volunteer tradie crew, with foreman Leigh, Moncur, Lawts and Glen all returning to roll up their sleeves.
From Victoria to South Australia, the stories at the heart of Budget Battlers are as powerful as the transformations. In Aberfoyle Park, South Australia, a group of school mums nominate Ebony, a young mother battling stage three bowel cancer.
In Maidstone, Victoria, the team step in to help Sandra, a selfless nurse who has spent her life caring for others. Despite insisting she doesn’t need help, Jess, Norm and the crew are determined to give her home a well-earned refresh.
In the Brisbane suburb of Milton, Aunty Velda’s home is in serious need of a renovation so it can keep on welcoming the community for generations to come.
Meanwhile in Birchip, Victoria, local legend Maurice is recognised for his quiet dedication as the whole town rallies to surprise him with a renovation he never saw coming.
With a new home to renovate each week, Budget Battlers is bigger, bolder and more heartfelt than ever. Full of tears, triumphs and jaw-dropping reveals, this must-watch renovation series proves that you don’t need a million-dollar budget to make a house feel like a cherished and priceless home.
Budget Battlers is produced by Maker Media for the 9Network.
