Popular US landscape experts Chris Lambton and Sara Bendrick will add instant value to tired homes that need a dose of curb appeal, in DIY Network’s new US series, Lawn & Order.

Premiering on 12 May, the ten-episode season on DIY will feature Chris and Sara as they create beautiful designs for lacklustre front yards, and team up with homeowners to rip out existing lawns. Once the duo adds attractive elements such as fresh landscaping, calming water features and new shutters and garage doors, the value of the properties skyrocket with the promise of top-dollar profit.

“Sometimes you look at the outside of a house and think ‘wow, that place needs help,’” said Lambdon. Added Bendrick: “It could be the reason a house isn’t selling.”

In the premiere episode, the duo helps a busy couple overhaul the bland façade and overgrown lawn of their starter home, which has been sitting on the market for more than three months. To get the home noticed by potential buyers, the creative team will transform the look of the home with fresh paint, an inviting flagstone walkway and patio with a stone water fountain, as well as new grass and landscaping.
