Episode Overview
In this episode, master carpenter Norm Abram and general contractor Tom Silva strip away the aging vinyl siding from the house, revealing the original wood clapboards and a surprising amount of necessary repairs. Inside, architect Paul Rovinelli guides host Kevin O'Connor and homeowner Gillian Pierce through their vision for a new kitchen, emphasizing a modest expansion that prioritizes practicality. Inspired by architect Sarah Susanka’s philosophy, Kevin visits her "Not So Big" home in Raleigh, North Carolina, for innovative remodeling ideas that are budget-friendly. Meanwhile, landscape contractor Roger Cook prepares the ground by breaking up the old porch slab for the new addition's foundation.
