Judgement Day began with the contestants learning that a big prize was on the line for the teams impressing the judges most with their progress - the Top 3 going on to compete in a challenge for a prize of up to $40,000. The judges visited the six houses to check on the status of the renovations, before returning to the warehouse to deliver their verdict. The Fibro Cottage, Sixties Suburban and Weatherboard were selected as the three best performers, with one representative from each team going forward to compete in the Panic Room Reward Challenge for a massive financial advantage.
