The trials and tribulations of château renovation continue on Channel 4’s “Château DIY,” returning this Tuesday. From crumbling walls to leaky roofs, the series chronicles the ups and downs of British families restoring their slices of French history. Think stunning scenery, DIY disasters, and a whole lot of character.
This time, in the Dordogne, Nick and Nicole race to finish their new dining room before their son’s first birthday party. Will they make it? Meanwhile, in the Occitanie region, Tim and Sasha’s front steps renovation takes a dramatic turn. Will wedding bells be ringing, or will it be the sound of a sledgehammer hitting a thumb? And near the Pyrenees, Trish takes on a guest bedroom makeover, drawing inspiration from the breathtaking mountain views.
“Château DIY” offers a window into the challenges and rewards of taking on ambitious restoration projects. It’s a show that celebrates both the beauty of the French countryside and the resilience of the people who call these historic properties home. Tune in to Channel 4 on Tuesday, April 15th at 5:00 PM.
