The project house is progressing with an eye toward accessibility and the mid-century modern aesthetic. Geothermal pipes are run from the wells into the house. Wood blocking is installed for the future mounting of assistive devices. The new floor system allows for running new electrical wires without being visible. Old receptacle boxes in the original brick walls are replaced without damage.

Aired: 11/01/23 | Expires: 07/25/24
Funding for THIS OLD HOUSE is provided by The Home Depot and Renewal By Andersen.
