Season 45 Episode 19 | 23m 42s

There has been major development on the 1887 Victorian. The original cedar shingles have been exposed and are in bad shape. Extensive termite damage results in additional structural work. A local community garden is visited. An existing concrete slab is made level, and a high school student works as a framer on the project. The original clay pipe is replaced with a trenchless system.

Aired: 04/10/24 | Expires: 04/25/24
Funding for THIS OLD HOUSE is provided by The Home Depot and Renewal By Andersen.
