Charlie tours a Springfield trim factory, Tom explains why there should be air behind your siding, and the new deck gets composite tongue-and-groove boards. Plus: a kitchen mock-up that's smarter than it looks.
Jenn Nawada heads to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, to help Adam—whose weekly Monday Night Dinners now draw hundreds—redesign his backyard with an outdoor kitchen, a stone pathway, and fresh sod. Then Mark McCullough swaps out two rusted, off-kilter window wells, showing the proper demo, drainage, and galvanized steel install.
