This Old House (1979)

Episode Overview

We find Mike McManus and his painting team busy with their prep work, diligently dry scraping and hand sanding in compliance with Board of Health standards. The updated staging now features safety nets to shield pedestrians from any potential falling tools or debris. Inside, our skilled carpenter demonstrates how to properly lay out and install tiles in the children’s bathroom, utilizing both a stationary and a portable wet saw. We check back in with the Maitlands at their colonial farmhouse to see how they’re settling in. Meanwhile, homeowner Deborah Guinee shares the architect's designs for the covered carriageway, which she will need to present to the Historical Commission for their approval.
