    A house as old as our project is bound to have two bad things, lead and asbestos. Earlier demo took care of the lead paint but today is asbestos removal day. Kevin O’Connor finds Ron Peik and his team starting the removal.
    Plumbing issues will be the first to consider as the project unfolds. Richard Trethewey meets Ronnette Taylor, the plumber on our project, to assess the waste water system after 120 years of service and one year lying dormant.
    Community gardens are a popular way for urban dwellers to experience an outdoor pastime. In Boston they have been popular for decades and now there are waiting lists to get access to the tiny plots. Luckily Carol and her sister Willie have found neighbors who need help with their garden. Jenn Nawada catches up with them as they deal with the end of the season.
    New England is ground zero for the apartment style known as 3 Deckers. From Boston to Waterbury, Connecticut and many places in between, a 3 Decker building is where working people lived and raised their families. Architectural Historian Arthur Krim, who has studied 3 Deckers for 40 years, describes the key features.
    Vinyl siding is one of the least expensive siding materials and it can look good if installed correctly. But vinyl siding is no match for the heat from a house fire. Tom Silva finds Charlie Silva and Russ Gibson pulling off the melted siding from our house and preparing for replacement pieces.

    It's really amazing how much more I like to watch people like this, who are normal and a lot less weird than a lot of the other rich homeowners on TOH. Everything seems so much less fake and choreographed. It makes for a better viewing experience. What a huge contrast to the first part of this season.

      This statement serves to prove your prejudice, not the homeowners persona. You can dislike well off people all you want, doesnt make them any less amiable. Just different levels of existence. Maybe work on your own judgemental side and leave the show out of it

    As much as I understand that they are trying to keep cost down. I would have remove all the old siding . You have no idea what condition the wall is in before you add new siding . Also you can add house wrap and insulation before the siding. Also the window areas would look better without that large buildout. But , cost may be king here.
