The ten-part series on theDiscovery Channel will star the "best and brightest" builders from across the US as they compete against one another to fix household items.
"We're living in a throwaway society. We buy, break, replace… rinse and repeat," Allen told entertainment website Deadline.
"There are some people who unfriend, unfollow and dispose of anything that offends, annoys or breaks so I've created a show to remind people of the satisfaction and pride that comes from rebuilding something on their own."
"And who better to join me than my buddy from the old Tool Time days – Richard Karn."
Allen played Tim 'The Toolman' Taylor while Karn portrayed Al Borland on the fictional Tool Time show throughout Home Improvement's entire run over eight seasons from 1991 to 1999.
