About Big Little Reno

Little Renovations | BIG Impact

Think transforming your home means a massive renovation and an even bigger budget? Think again.

Welcome to Big Little Reno, a new Australian home renovation TV series proving that you don't need a big renovation to make a big difference.

Join building scientist Jenny Edwards, builder Matt Menichelli and electrician Tamarah Vos as they take on a mission to transform Aussie homes with smart, targeted renovations and home energy upgrades.

From insulation and energy-efficient appliances to clever building improvements and beautiful interior transformations, the team shows how choosing the right upgrades can make your home:

More comfortable to live in
More energy efficient
Cheaper to run
And look great at the same time

Big Little Reno follows three experts on a mission to show Australians how smart, targeted upgrades can make our homes more comfortable, cheaper to run and beautiful to live in.

Schweigen - Silent Rangehood

Traditional rangehoods put the fan motor right inside the unit above your head. Schweigen removes this internal motor. Instead, they use a German-engineered Isodrive® motor that installs on your roof or in your ceiling space. Ductwork connects the hood to the external motor, pulling smoke, odours and steam away silently.

Energy Saving Draught Proofing Solutions by tightHOUSE

Draughts can account for up to 25% of your home's winter heat loss. tightHOUSE products are designed and field-proven by Efficiency Matrix — the building scientists who blower-door test Australian buildings for a living.
