Newton Project (Part 1)5 of 16
In the first half of The "This Old House Hour", countertop fabricator Paul Grothouse arrives from Pennsylvania to install the end grain teak island top and deliver its companion piece "a custom teak farmhouse table" for the breakfast area. Plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey displays the progress on the second floor bath and meets tub refinisher Jack Donaruma on the third floor to see him strip and refinish the old clawfoot tub. In the master closet, Kevin finds the room painted and closet designer Brian McSharry is installing a custom closet system. Back in the kitchen, tile contractor Mark Ferrante shows Kevin how he uses wedges to create even grout lines on the uneven handmade tile backsplash. In the billiards room, pool table expert Steve Kelly reassembles the restored antique pool table and finally gets to play a game of pool with Norm. In the second half of the Hour, on Ask This Old House, Richard helps a homeowner tackle the problem of an unpleasant smelling dishwasher. Landscape contractor Roger Cook makes a House call to Iowa to help a homeowner transplant a rose bush.
