The Tunnel (2013)

S15E15 The Belmont House - 15

The host arrives to see the crew installing a rubber membrane roof on the garage, while homeowner Dean Gallant assists Roger Cook in constructing a concrete block terrace just outside the back door. Meanwhile, artisans Peter Mattison and Charles Billings are busy fitting the repaired leaded glass windows. The scene shifts to the Mark Twain House in Hartford, Connecticut, an impeccably restored Victorian gem. Back at the Gallant home, homeowner Lauren Gallant is diligently cleaning up the debris from the removal of her sand-finish ceilings, which have been transformed to a sleek, smooth surface by the wallboard and plaster team. In the kitchen, the host observes their use of fiberglass backer board for the tile backsplashes and watches as they employ a device to lift drywall panels to the ceiling, applying the brown base and veneer top plaster coats.
