For Immediate Release

TORONTO, April 6, 2022 – This spring, HGTV Canada adds to its slate of proven hit series and fan-favourite stars with three all-new Corus Studios original series: Trading Up with Mandy Rennehan (10×60), Styled (8×60), and Hoarder House Flippers (6×60). From a construction and renovation mogul reinventing and reselling properties in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia; to a design duo bringing glamour and function into every detail; to intrepid flippers from across Canada who see through the mess to find success – HGTV Canada delivers dynamic and unique new content for viewers to experience.

First to air is Trading Up with Mandy Rennehan starring Mandy Rennehan, a highly successful entrepreneur, celebrated builder, sought-after public speaker, and champion of the trades industry. Premiering Thursday, May 12 at 10 p.m. ET/PT, the series follows Mandy as she renovates three extraordinary properties in her hometown of Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. These real estate resale projects are not only investments, they’re an opportunity for Mandy to mentor three trade apprentices – giving them the tools to develop their own successful careers. Full of heart, humour, and ‘Mandy-esque’ East Coast flair, Trading Up with Mandy Rennehan is a celebration of hard work and meaningful leadership. The series is supported by official kitchen and bathroom fixture supplier American Standard.

Then, style experts Nicole Babb and Caffery Vanhorne bring their fashion-forward taste to home design in Styled, premiering Tuesday, May 17 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. Whether adding value to a property before it hits the market or turning a house into a forever home, the design duo stage and renovate spaces big and small. With the help of Nicole’s family-run design firm and a team of contractors, they bring their vision to life and transform each project from drab to fab. The premiere episode has Nicole and Caffery helping to convert childhood memories into a grown-up dream home, then introduce the power of staging to a new realtor client. Styled is supported by home improvement partner Lowe’s and official paint sponsor BEHR®.

Three sets of flippers round out this distinctive slate of programming in Hoarder House Flippers, premiering Thursday, May 19 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Seeing potential property value covered by years of clutter, trash, and neglect, these intrepid flippers turn dilapidated properties into desirable homes. Each episode is helmed by one of three sets of renovators, hailing from Ontario, Quebec and Manitoba – each with their own unique style and personality. The series premiere features Ontario couple Ryan and Kiki trimming back the mess of an overgrown ranch-style house; followed by Quebec brothers Mactar, Issa, and Khadim in the second episode, who discover their cheap flip is going to cost big bucks; then Manitoba’s Heather and Nathan transform their newly purchased eyesore in the third episode. Hoarder House Flippers is supported by official paint sponsor SICO Paint provided by Lowe’s.
