Carpenter-extraordinaire, Ty Pennington makes his HGTV Canada debut with Ty Breaker (8×60), a brand new show helping families find the best property to suit their needs. Home renovation star Nicole Curtis (Rehab Addict) shares her skills with overwhelmed DIY-ers to help them restore their own historic homes in Rehab Addict Rescue (8×60). Then in Self-Made Mansions (8×60), lifestyle expert Clinton Kelly shows new millionaires what it means to live large as he guides them on a luxe real estate hunt for the high-end home of their dreams.
Returning to the network, Drew and Jonathan Scott make more houses into forever homes for couples across Vancouver, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas in new episodes of Property Brothers: Forever Home (10×60). Meanwhile, network darlings Erin and Ben Napier are back with Season 5 of their hit series Home Town (13×60), and Bargain Mansions (6×60) brings a new batch of neglected mansions back to life in new episodes of the popular series.
