Stacey Solomon fronts new DIY show on Channel 4

Stacey Solomon is to front a new DIY show for Channel 4 with Renovation Rescue coming to screens in April.

The series will give viewers easy and helpful tips to makeover their homes themselves.

Stacey Solomon comes to the aid of homeowners left stranded and out of pocket by their builders, who’ve abandoned projects and thrown lives into disarray. With her boundless energy for do-it-yourself projects and savvy design advice that saves money, Stacey helps these families complete their partially finished homes affordably.

Along the way, she enhances her construction abilities, tackling tasks ranging from plumbing to micro-cementing.

Stacey also applies her expanding expertise to her own residence, Pickle Cottage, demonstrating the practical application of her skills.

Stacey Solomon’s Renovation Rescue starts on Wednesday, 10 April at 9PM on Channel 4 and All4.

The show is being made by Hello Sunshine, the production company of Reese Witherspoon who is an executive producer on the show.

Stacey Solomon said: “From an early age, my dad taught me DIY and the importance of fixing things yourself where you can. I still find it so satisfying to build or repair around the house and it saves loads of money.

“I am beyond excited to work with Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine on their first ever UK project. They are all about empowering women, and what could be more empowering than a power tool?! It’s a dream come true to share my DIY hacks with everyone at home.

Channel 4’s Senior Commissioning Editor Clemency Green added: “Stacey has a natural talent for making a house a home. She is perfectly placed to show all of us that with a few clever tips we can all have a go at DIY and make our homes beautiful on a budget.”
