“I love what I do and I’m determined to succeed," Alison Victoria says when asked about her thoughts on fixing old homes on HGTV's 'Windy City Rehab' which is set to make a comeback with a lot of reno work and drama. Here's all you need to know about the show.

Release date

'Windy City Rehab' Season 2 will premiere on Tuesday, September 15, at 9 pm ET/ PT. The show was slated for an early 2020 release but the dates were pushed owing to several unprecedented setbacks and of course, the pandemic.

Former business partners Alison Victoria and Donovan Eckhardt will be on a mission to fix homes around Chicago city.

Plot

The projects have gone bigger and the risks have multiplied. In the five 90-minute-episode series, Alison and Donovan will help families move into upgraded abodes but that will come with a set of challenges. According to a Chicago Suntimes copy, the co-hosts/ partners' fractured working relationship will form a narrative on the show and so will permit delays and stop-work orders. The pressures got to a point where Alison's livelihood is on the line but she refused to give up. “Running a design and renovation business in Chicago is not for the faint of heart,” Alison told HGTV and added: “It has tested me in more ways than I could have ever imagined.”

The Chicago Tribune listed multiple legal issues that the 'Windy City Rehab' team is mired in. In January 2020, the website reported that a couple, who bought a newly-done home in Season 1, was suing the designer and contractor over issues with "their roof, windows, exterior masonry, and hallway bathroom". This apart, civil action has been sought against the team for constructing as many as four properties that are "dangerous".
