Fans of The Block will love this!

A new reality series, My Reno Rules, is set to debut on Channel Seven in 2026, the network has confirmed.

The show will see four hardworking Aussie teams go head-to-head to give two rundown homes a drastic upgrade in Melbourne.

They will be scored by former The Block judge Neale Whitaker, top buyer’s agent Simon Cohen, and interior design expert Julia Green. The winner will be awarded a “life-changing” prize.

During the show’s live finale, two Aussies will receive a call saying they’ve won a renovated, multi-million-dollar home through a live prize draw.

How is Adrian Portelli involved in My Reno Rules?

In November 2024, New Idea exclusively revealed that Adrian Portelli was in talks of joining a show on a rival network, and then in July 2025, that was made official when it was confirmed that Adrian’s business LMCT+ would be the show’s principal sponsor.

For Adrian, it was a no-brainer to join the show.

“LMCT+ has always been about changing the lives of everyday Australians, so when this opportunity came up with Seven, it just felt right,” he said in a press release when the news was first announced.

“For me, it’s about giving back – and doing it in a way that’s big, bold and exciting.

“These homes are in a beautiful area and have real potential. With the right teams and vision, they’re going to be incredible. I can’t wait to be part of a show granting lucky Aussies a brand-new future, and inspiring thousands more along the way.”

“Bet my high school teachers never thought… I’D HAVE MY OWN TV SHOW ON CHANNEL 7!” he also said on Instagram at the time.

“The Reno games looking a little dusty. Time for a fresh coat 👷‍♂️ The gloves are off,” he added.

This comes after the business mogul confirmed he would never return to The Block.

While he confirmed in 2024 that he wasn’t returning, Scott recently told Fitzy and Wippa that they had asked him to come back. However, he also told outlets that his absence would allow others to buy the homes.

“Scott, you’re talking porkies,” Adrian responded on his Instagram stories with a screenshot of a Yahoo! article. “I told you guys I was leaving. There was never a conversation of being told to sit out of this season.”

He then said the houses on The Block were “hyped up” and “over-valued”.

Who is hosting My Reno Rules?

Dancing with the Stars host Dr Chris Brown will be hosting the unique series.

The term ‘life-changing’ can get thrown around a lot on TV, but this is absolutely that. Imagine winning a brand-new home – that’s going to be the reality for two lucky Aussies,” he said in a statement when the news was first announced.

“And if you’re a passionate renovator, you could also win a massive cash prize.”

“With the dream of owning your own home still top of the list for most Aussies, I can’t wait to have a front row seat to that becoming a reality. It’s going to be a heartwarming ride!”
