Los Angeles; Roof Tiles & Richard's Water Story (S32E19)

S32E19

In Los Angeles, host Kevin O'Connor arrives to witness the installation of new clay roof tiles alongside custom wooden windows and doors, designed to maintain a historic aesthetic. These features comply with California's stringent energy regulations through a combination of tempered glass and Low-E coatings. Roofing expert John Dybas reveals their strategy for the roof, incorporating tiles from the old house at the visible perimeter while using cost-effective, new two-pan tiles for the rest. In Corona, Kevin observes the process of creating roof tiles from clay and sand, and back in Silver Lake, John demonstrates the use of polypropylene underlayment and meticulous tile installation techniques.
