SALT LAKE CITY, April 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Rock The Block is HGTV’s highest rated show and returns tonight for season six. All episodes were filmed near Salt Lake City, Utah. Utah’s Hamlet Homes was selected by HGTV as the official builder of all homes in season six. Rock The Block attracted more than 13.6 million viewers to season five and will return for the highly anticipated season six tonight April 14, 2025, at 7pm MST. All seven episodes of season six are set in Hamlet Homes newest development in the Salt Lake City, Utah area.
“The thing that we are the most excited about is for everyone to see these homes to come to life”, said Tami Ostmark Hamlet’s Owner, VP of Marketing & Design. “Our whole team has been excited for this opportunity, and it has turned out to be an incredible experience that has brought our team together. We feel more than ever now that we can take on any challenge”.
Former competitors and judges returning to the block on the veteran teams will include star designer Alison Victoria (Sin City Rehab) with past Rock the Block champion and high-end designer Michel Smith Boyd (Luxe for Less) as well as home restoration dynamo Jonathan Knight (Farmhouse Fixer) and his New Kids on the Block bandmate and brother Jordan Knight (Farmhouse Fixer: Camp Revamp). Competing on the series for the first time, the rookie teams will feature married home reno pros Chelsea and Cole DeBoer (Down Home Fab) and flipping, renovation and real estate experts Kamohai and Tristyn Kalama (Renovation Aloha).
Hamlet Homes was given special permission from HGTV to record behind the scenes footage of every episode in season six. “We had a photographer/videographer on site the whole show. We are excited to show a peek behind the curtain. After every episode, we will launch a behind the scenes episode on our website”, said Ostmark. Each behind the scenes episode is 2-3 minutes in length. The full season of behind-the-scenes episodes at www.hamlethomes.com/rtb will be over 25 minutes in length. When asked if there are any crazy behind the scenes stories that Hamlet is allowed to talk about, Ostmark laughed, smiled and kindly replied “no comment”.
During tonight’s two-hour premiere, the teams will plan and construct their home’s kitchen, dining and living areas, incorporating desirable elements that will up the value and appeal to potential buyers. In a new twist this season, expert judges will tour the finished spaces without the teams, revealing their identities and giving their honest assessments of the layouts and design choices at each weekly judging. Designer, television host and best-selling author Bobby Berk (Queer Eye) will determine which competitor created the ideal ‘heart of the home’ that delivers maximum functionality and style.
Hamlet Homes will host a launch party for the premier tonight. The party is a private event and will help promote awareness of Hamlet’s partnership with Homeaid Utah. Homeaid Utah helps fight homelessness in Utah through local programs combining community engagement and housing development. “Homeaid efforts have really moved us at Hamlet, and we want to do anything possible to support their mission to help Utahns realize their dreams of having their own home”, said Ostmark. “For tonight’s premier party, we invited our most valued VIP’s, lenders and vendors. We want to show our appreciation to all the great team members that helped us build these homes and our most valued partners. Most importantly, we hope to raise awareness of Homeaid’s efforts and how people can financially support their mission at our Block Party Finale May 30th & 31st“.
The homes built for season six of Rock The Block are at an undisclosed location in Utah and not open to the public. They will however be accessible after the final episode at Hamlet’s Finale Party May 30th & 31st, 2025. The four homes seen on Rock The Block can be toured by the public at the premier party.
