Louis Brennan and Aoife NicChraith have built a modern three-bedroom house as an extension to their 200-year-old one-bed cottage near Caherlistrane with the help of Australian eco builder and broadcaster Harrison Gardner.

Build Your Own Home follows the trials and tribulations of homeowners from across Ireland. The series will chart the mammoth challenges faced by the participants as they set out to build their own home under the watchful eye of master builder and building teacher, Harrison Gardner. Over days, weeks and months of hard labour, the homeowners are taught and mentored by Harrison, an Australian eco-builder and sustainability designer, who believes that anyone can learn how to build.
