This Old House · S48 E2
Zack Dettmore builds a job-site command center before demo starts, two cartouche window sashes get chiseled free, Heath Eastman sorts three generations of wiring in one basement, and Kevin follows a lumber order from a Newark yard to the curb.
This Old House · S48 E1
In the Season 48 premiere, 'Garden State of Mind,' This Old House takes on an 1893 Dutch Colonial in Essex County, New Jersey—complete with an octagon living room, a steam boiler worth preserving, and a kitchen where three layers of flooring hide structural sins.
This Old House · S47 E14
The inevitable asbestos discovery, a field trip to a recycling facility, and a 24-foot steel beam craned through a rear window — because sometimes the front door isn't an option.
This Old House · S47 E13
Charlie and Mark dismantle the center chimney from roof to first floor, Tom salvages kitchen cabinets for a new pantry, and a rubble stone foundation reveals just how different 1896 construction really was.
This Old House · S47 E12
After eleven episodes of hurricane recovery, This Old House moves to Needham, MA, where the biggest crisis is an outdated kitchen. Perspective recalibrated, the crew meets Liz and Patrick's 1896 Queen Anne Victorian.
This Old House · S47 E3
Mark and a mason scope out chimney damage with a camera (it's not pretty), Kevin replaces siding in the mud, and the Army Corps of Engineers drops by to explain what 'relief efforts' actually looks like.
