This Old House

E23 | First Period Gambrel | Factory Built

Season 44 Episode 23 | 23m 42s

The project is halfway through construction. A closet is built in the original gambrel bedroom, and a water harvesting system is installed in the yard. The homeowner tours a handmade lighting factory. A gas boiler is vented to mimic a plumbing vent stack pipe. The old barn is replaced with a new boathouse built in a factory and assembled onsite in a day. Shrubs are protected for future planting.

Aired: 05/17/23 | Expires: 06/01/23
Funding for THIS OLD HOUSE is provided by The Home Depot and Renewal By Andersen.
