This Old House (1979)
S18E23 The Tucson House - 5
Episode Overview
The episode begins at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, showcasing meticulously crafted landscapes that mimic nature, with artificial rocks created through skilled artistry. New windows have just arrived, and consultant Forrest Campbell highlights their benefits, such as a true-divided-light look paired with thermal efficiency, custom high-performance exterior paint, and a convenient one-move, three-point locking system for the French doors. Meanwhile, the Meigs residence is getting a makeover with insulated boards replacing the failing stucco, soon to be topped with a fiberglass and acrylic stucco finish. HVAC installer Marshall Dennington discusses the decision to use three separate units for the system. In the master bath, David Kelly is laying tile while electrician Dan LaBlue sets up a steam shower. Lastly, we catch up with Shelly Kessler and her team, who are enhancing the old bedroom floor with a stunning walnut inlay.
