At the end of the episode, a photo was shown of the tradie in a tuxedo with black bow tie.
The photo was captioned: “In Memory of Jon Jeremy Bradey, 1980-2022.”
Fans of The Block would know Bradey as the “Arctic King” who worked on Kirsty and Jesse’s property for the 2021 season of the blockbuster.
He also concreted Josh and Luke’s pool in the same season.

The father of three was a construction industry legend and a devoted father and friend, the publication reported.
His respected reputation for precision earned him the nickname “Mr. 1 percent.’
