Neville and the Design Team are back for a third series of the hit home makeover show, Neville’s Doorstep Challenge for TV3. Once again, Ireland’s most popular Interior Designer will face the challenge of making over eight tired and dated interiors around the country. The Design Team are looking for rooms in need of an expert’s touch, from apartments to country homes they want to hear from you.
The makeovers are courtesy of Crown Paints, DoneDeal and TV3. A budget of €1000 has been set to makeover one room per show. Neville will be up cycling and purchasing second hand furniture online (via DoneDeal) while the Design Team paints a new colour palette for the room (Crown Paints).
The deal is very simple. If you answer the knock on the door, Neville will makeover a room in your home and it won’t cost a single cent! While you, the homeowner, gets whisked away to enjoy a complimentary stay in a luxury hotel.
Neville’s Doorstep Challenge is truly an interior design show for the times we live in. Great design tips, clever ideas and lots more for a tight budget.
Neville appeared on Ireland AM this morning to call on the public to put their homes forward and apply to the show. If you'd like to take part in this years' series, just send an email to: doorstep@vipmg.tv with 'Application Request' in the subject line. An application form will then be returned to you by email.
