Host Dean Ipaviz will lead a team of highly-skilled craftspeople, who try to rescue the cherished posessions of Australians from their special workroom. Dean, who is a builder and sustainability expert himself, will work with the experts to help restore precious, broken and battered family heirlooms to their former glory. Each week, families bring along their damaged historical treasures in the hope they can be fixed. As each item is painstakingly restored by the skilled craftspeople, we hear the personal stories behind the heirloom and why it's so cherished by the family.
