This Old House (1979)
S34E09 Cambridge 2012: Gutters, Range, Fireplace
Episode Overview
Norm and Kevin arrive to witness painters applying a tinted primer with airless sprayers, transforming the house from a dull grey to a vibrant yellow reminiscent of Swedish aesthetics. Inside, Tom and Norm begin trimming the double-hung windows on the second floor, incorporating a stylish modern detail as per the architect’s specifications. Outside, Norm reconnects with custom gutter fabricator Augustin Crookston, who is on-site to create and install bespoke copper half-round gutters. Meanwhile, Kevin joins homeowner Sally Peterson and appliance expert Sandy Lashway at a showroom to discuss the advantages of upgrading to professional-grade ranges and ovens. Back at the house, Richard consults fireplace specialist John Sullivan about a Danish-designed zero-clearance wood-burning fireplace insert for the living room. After installation, homeowner John Stone shares with Kevin the design and storage options they considered for the fireplace wall, including the final design.
