This Old House (1979)

Episode Overview

At the Weston project house, landscape contractor Roger Cook places granite steps on the entryway, sets precast footings for a pergola, and lays Goshen stone for the front patio. Meanwhile, general contractor Tom Silva installs rough-sawn reclaimed white oak flooring on the first level. Host Kevin O'Connor brings homeowner Amy Favat to a nearby appliance showroom for a hands-on experience with potential kitchen appliances. To tackle the cell phone "dead zone," security systems expert Greg Smizer installs a cell signal extender that amplifies outside signals indoors. Kevin also invites designer Carole Freehauf to suggest elegant and unique furnishing ideas for the timberframe home.
