Real-estate investors and expert home renovators David and Chenoa Rivera will transform outdated properties near Northern California's idyllic Sierra Nevada Mountains into beautiful family homes in HGTV's newest series, Rustic Rehab.

Premiering 26 April, the show will have eight half-hour episodes that will follow the couple, who are parents of four, as they overcome construction challenges including faulty foundations, outdated plumbing and rodent infestations to create charming mountainside retreats in Paradise, Calif.

In the series premiere, the couple will purchase a large house with partially demolished rooms nestled deep in the woods. The house is riddled with dry rot and littered with garbage, but the duo is determined to call attention to the impressive vaulted ceilings and maximise the astounding views from the back deck. To give the dilapidated property a complete overhaul, in the show the Riveras will add sleek, modern finishes including concrete countertops in the kitchen and an oversized master bathroom shower to attract buyers.
