Production
In December 2019, a casting call was sent out looking for four new teams. Production for this season began in January 2020 on Huia Road in Point Chevalier with four two-storey townhouses being constructed. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions put in place, the season was postponed until 2021, with production pausing on 23 March 2020, at the start of the third week, and resuming on 19 April 2021.

Contestants
The teams selected for this season are as follows. Connie replaced Janah Kingi as Rachel's teammate in week 3 when production resumed after it was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When Keegan's ribs were fractured during a challenge in week 7, the brother's sister Maddy Crawford temporarily joined Team Yellow to allow time for Keegan to heal.
