Host Kevin O'Connor visits Harvard University to see the
preservation efforts on several historic old buildings, including
Memorial Hall, which was ravaged by a fire in the 1950s and was
recently restored to its former glory. In the backyard of the
project house, landscape contractor Roger Cook installs two
concrete storage tanks that are part of the underground water
collection system that promises a cure for George's waterlogged
yard. In the garage, a crew from a local home center installs a
two-part epoxy coating to give the concrete slab a showroom-quality
finish. Master carpenter Norm Abram travels to Middletown, Rhode
Island, to see the custom mill shop that is machining the stair
treads and making most of millwork for the project house. In the
driveway, Roger shows Kevin how he's installing the new concrete
pavers over radiant "snow melting" heat.
