The Block’s Omar and Oz won main bathroom week during the much-anticipated room reveals on Sunday night’s episode.
The Western Sydney best friends, who admittedly have limited experience in building and design, bowled the judges over.
The pair spent the least amount on their renovation at just $20,749, but took first place on the leaderboard with a total score of 26 out of 30.

Meanwhile, Dylan and Jenny got flooded with praise.
The team spent $28,003 on their room renovation.

Newcomers Rachel and Ryan impressed the judges with their bathroom but got criticized about their double showers, normally used in a master en suite.

‘If anything will get me angry. It’s doing this to that beautiful house we walked through,’ Shaynna said.
‘It’s brassy and shiny and something about it isn’t feeling authentic,’ Neale added of the style choices.

‘If anyone house will get me angry. It’s doing this to that beautiful house we walked through,’ Shaynna said. Neale called it ‘inauthentic’ as well as ‘brassy and shiny’
