In celebration of the show's 25th anniversary, Kevin revisits the iconic Concord Barn, the very first timber frame project, to assess its condition after 15 years. Homeowners Lynn and Barbara Wickwire share their experiences of barn living. Meanwhile, chimney expert Mark Schaub manages the preparation and pouring of a new flue for the living hall's fireplace. In Carlisle, Richard introduces Kevin to the features of a new submersible pump destined for installation 400 feet underground within a well. Norm and Tom guide Kevin in working with advanced pressure-treated lumber while constructing the front entry porch.
