Tough as Nails will follow Cindy, a 21-year construction business veteran, as she deals with building high-end, multimillion-dollar luxury homes while also managing her staff -- which includes ex-husband Joe -- in the male-dominated industry.
Stumpo's mother Beverly also serves as her office secretary, while her 23-year-old daughter Samantha is being groomed to take over the family business one day and her son Chad pursues his dream of becoming a professional golfer.
In addition, Stumpo's grandmother serves as her sounding board from problems and ideas.
The premiere episode will follow Stumpo as she attempts to complete a 4,800-square-foot home that must be finished in less than one week for a broker's open house.

"Tough as Nails is the perfect phrase to describe Cindy Stumpo," said HGTV programming executive Freddy James. "Viewers will be inspired by this self-made woman who's doing it all."
The Antonio Treatment, a new reality series starring HGTV Design Star fourth-season winner Antonio Ballatore, will serve as Tough as Nails lead in and air in the Sundays at 10PM ET/PT timeslot beginning March 14.
