RTE Room To Improve 2022: When is the hit show back on TV and what can we expect from the first episode?

Fans of RTE show Room To Improve will be delighted to see Dermot Bannon return to our screens this weekend.

RTE shared a trailer for the new episode, which will air this Sunday at 9.30pm.

The first episode will see a couple face the challenges of building their house during the Covid-19 pandemic.

When the couple first met Dermot they were "blown away" by his design.

However, everything soon goes wrong as Covid grips Ireland. Construction prices spiral and the project is soon way over budget.

It is revealed in the trailer that the couple need to scrape over €50,000 off their spend as costs of building have significantly increased.

Leading up to the launch of the new series, Dermot shared a sneak peak at a home in Stillorgan that will be featured this season.

The photo of “The House on the Lane” shows Dermot has once again used his signature feature of large windows with lots of light.

The popular RTE home renovation show returns on February 20 2022 and sees the famed architect help Irish people achieve their dream homes.

Room to Improve has been on Irish screens since 2007 and often sees Dermot running into conflict with families and quantity surveyors around budgets and designs.

The popular programme was on hiatus for an extended period due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but Dermot has been teasing fans on social media on what they can expect from the 13th season.

Room to Improve returns on Sunday night on RTE One at 9.30pm.
