Released: 2007-12-06

General contractor Tom Silva constructs a new staircase to replace the one he removed from the old kitchen, leading down to the basement. Plumbing and heating specialist Richard Trethewey guides host Kevin O'Connor on selecting a high-quality faucet, focusing on its function, finish, construction, and valves. Inspired by an arched door opening, Tom demonstrates his technique for creating a vaulted ceiling in the hallway that links the front of the house to the new rear addition. To wrap up the day, insulation contractor Tony Trigler arrives to apply spray foam insulation in the addition.
