'Changing Rooms' is expected to return for a second series.
The home improvement show - which first aired on the BBC from 1996 to 2004 - was revived by Channel 4 last year after 17 years, with returning style guru Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, and Anna Richardson replaced previous host Carol Smillie.
The show's bosses are said to be giving the reboot another go, with filming due to begin "shortly".
An insider said: "The producers are determined to make it work, with filming set to start shortly and the second season airing later this year."
Channel 4 bosses are hoping the show's audience will grow with a second series.
The insider added to The Sun newspaper's Bizarre TV column: "Channel 4 are convinced it just needs to find a new audience in addition to those who might tune in just out of nostalgia.
"They always faced something of a challenge given Carol wasn’t on the show, and there was also a new line-up of interior designers and craftsmen on the reboot.
"Plus, there are so many other shows that have a similar format, and it had to compete with them."
In August, Laurence admitted he was glad the show had a "reinvention".
Asked if he wanted Carol to return as host, he said: "No, and hand on heart, what the producers and what Channel 4 have done is actually very clever. They have moved on and it wouldn’t have worked if it had been 'Jurassic Park' - it had to be a reinvention.
"And to be fair, I resisted it for a long time. I was very keen that they really should look at finding possibilities with other people.
"Otherwise, it would just be a revival, actually it always needed to be a reboot."
