Newton Project (Part 12) Determining The Grade Of Landscape/Repairing A Bathtub
In the first half of The "This Old House Hour", general contractor Tom Silva addresses some unforeseen rotting problems with the garage. Inside, the kitchen is plastered, the new white oak flooring is down, and the cabinets have just arrived from Kitchener, Canada. Flooring contractor Steve Dubuque shows master carpenter Norm Abram how he is layering aniline dye, stain, and polyurethane to achieve the floor color the homeowners are seeking. In the master bath, host Kevin O'Connor finds tile contractor Joe Ferrante setting up for a major tile job – the first step is waterproofing the shower by using a paint-on, flexible, seamless, waterproofing membrane. In the second half of the Hour, on Ask This Old House, landscape contractor Roger Cook shows Kevin several different ways to determine the grade, or pitch, of a landscape. Plumbing and heating expert Richard makes a House call to help a homeowner repair a bathtub that will not hold water.
