Episode Overview
The crew starts their day with breakfast at a classic Mexican restaurant, gearing up for a job site filled with a mix of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology. Gilberto Chavez’s team applies interior plaster using time-honored techniques, while a cutting-edge stucco system is installed over the historic adobe facade. Contractor John McCaleb guides us through the charming colonial town of San Miguel de Allende, renowned for its artisanal heritage. Just a short distance away in Dolores Hidalgo, the handcrafted terracotta tiles for the Meigs' veranda are produced using a nearly 300-year-old method. Meanwhile, Colleen Meigs witnesses the initial stages of her "endless" pool taking shape.
