The foundation on our Mid-Century Modern house has no footings. Kevin finds Mark McCullough fixing the problem by pouring a buttress along the foundation. As part of our 40-year anniversary we are revisiting some of our most memorable projects. Kevin travels to Manchester by the Sea in Massachusetts to check out one of our largest restorations. Back in Brookline, Richard shows how a mid-century modern open floor plan with high ceilings means there is very little space for HVAC ductwork. New technology will help solve that problem. Like most Mid-Century moderns, ours has deep soffits. Kevin finds Tommy and Charlie fashioning them out of PVC. Tommy explains the need to compensate for expansion and contraction based on the weather. Inside, our homeowners want an open kitchen so Tommy, Norm and Charlie show our apprentices how it’s done.

I’m just a huge fan of Tommy, the master builder and keeper of building secrets extraordinaire!
That Manchester house is insane. I could fit my entire house into their entrance.
Nice seeing Norm Abram still on these projects after 40+ years. Hard to believe Tommy and Richard came AFTER Norm!
Those were the good old days when Norm was humping sheetrock and stuff for Bob Villa...I remember Tommy's first job on the show...He was making wood gutters and using a worm drive saw'RR to grind out the inside of the gutter...:)...Norm's face was priceless...I said "that's the kind of tradesman I'm going to be" and at 60, I'm still doing it...
I remember the first episode with Norm he couldn't have been more than 26 or 27 but highly skilled. I was about 14 or 15 now I'm 54 so 40 years is about right
The Manchester home was my all time favorite project,the craftsmanship that went into it was stunning and it's a lasting legacy for the whole team.
I love the Manchester By The Sea house. Just marvelous and elegant.
Imagine walking through your home everyday and seeing the work of Tommy, Norm and Richard.
Most people wouldn’t appreciate it.
I would cry, I'd stare at the walls as much as the TV
I would cry from all the unplumbed doors and nail pops :=(
The Manchester house is cool. Strong feeling that dude is a bond villain.
Pro trick: watch movies on Flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies recently.
@Christopher Lukas Yup, been watching on Flixzone for months myself :D
@Christopher Lukas Yea, I've been using Flixzone for since december myself :)
@Christopher Lukas yup, I've been watching on Flixzone for since december myself :)
@Christopher Lukas Yea, have been using flixzone for since december myself :D
I've been watching TOH long enough that I remember the original episodes of the Manchester by the Sea house. It's very satisfying to see the work hold up so well (and the home be so loved) after these many years.
Concrete work is one of the hardest jobs especially when you the low man on the pole and gotta run that wheel barrel
Tommy showing off all his Festool saw tracks in various sizes...evoking woodworker envy...those things are more expensive than the saw
It's awesome how they are continuing to include the apprentices in the outro of the episodes.
11:06 "with the beautiful view..." of things falling over in the background
Tommy is amazing.
Those masonry guys are sure earning their paycheck.
Your whole team never ceases to amaze me, your team goes above and beyond. Kudos
Kevin sounds like a 12 year old boy at 15:41
I heard it too 😂
Adding that footing is fixing a problem when there actually isnt' one.
Wow. This was excellent!
My house is nothing special like the Manchester house, but I wish This Old House could come and do a remodel. There work and skill are top notch
Useful videos to renovate my home
I really like the involvement with the apprentices.
I've been a fan of TOH since it started with just Bob, then Norm and Tommy came along. It never ceases to amaze me as to the detail in some of those properties! I've been a general contractor for 30 years, here in philly, built a few, remodeled many but; I never scored one of those types of grand projects, On the water, a seemingly endless budget, etc...Some guys have all the luck...:)...
Great to see master tradesmen in action....thanks
I remember actually seeing this episode while it was being renovated I think Bob Vela was in charge at that time Tommy was a baby lol. Love this show!
Samil101 - Steve Thomas was host for the Manchester house series.
Having left the show in 1989, Bob Vila had been gone 11 years by the time Manchester was filmed in 2000.
That Manchester shingle “house” is more a ‘mansion’ than a house, looks more than a remodel, a buildout & buildup more than doubling (maybe tripling) the square footage.
Beautiful designs, execution & applications.
I wonder what it’s like to be this rich.
Go to a mirror and spit at your reflection(a poor person). They yell bootstraps.
You wonder how not rich people can live at all.
if one is poor it takes drive, intelligence, and wit to move through life, come what may. if one is middle class, it takes drive, intelligence, and wit to move through life, come what may. if one is rich it takes drive, intelligence, and wit to move through life, come what may. one day a boy was taken by his grandma to visit his grandpa's grave. he asked his grandma how grandpa became so wealthy, having come into this world with nothing. his grandma answered - "grandpa and i worked hard every day, and he worked very hard all of his life." the boy responded - "didn't he ever rest?" grandma smiled and pointed to grandpa's grave and softly said - "this is when you get your rest, my boy when your work is done." we work to our abilities as best we can, living and learning on the way to that rest that means our work has come to its end. when we become old we try to be helpful to the young w/ our 'wisdom', but we learn on our own. if you work good things can come to you. live and work. study and learn. dream and achieve. best of luck to you and 'luck' favors the prepared. ; )
While researching vintage apartment found out the foundation was shell mix .
Very good
I enjoyed it
great video bro
2:13 INCONCEIVABLE!!!!
The outside of the house with the siding off looks neat with the diagonal boards. Also, kinda hate open floor plans.
The sheathing boards were attached diagonally to act as wind bracing before they had plywood. When I was a kid, there were a couple houses in my town that had diagonal cedar siding and I liked it so much I told my parents that I wanted a house sided like that someday. As I grew older I learned that wood siding requires more maintenance than I want.
Kevin said let's do it, then left and didn't do anyithing?
Hi Normy!
my addition from the 1920s has no gravel, no footing, and the block stops about 12 inches below grade.
Wait, what? 17 years ago they still installed single pane windows? 😨
They were probably original to the house and historic.
Manchester by the Sea sold for 8.6 million in 2019
I remember the Mc Cue house well. The Morash/Boston House is a dim memory. I found both of them interesting, but the McCue was obviously a million dolar job and the Boston was done on a shoestring. Both of them had their lessons. I did regard the original house as the most realistic for us average folks.
Kevin O' fire cratch😅😅
Painted over mahogany?!?
Was that Peter Brady hitting puberty at 15:41?
These sort of master tradesmen don’t exist in south Florida
having worked with PVC in the midwest for over a decade .... the expansion and contraction really takes a toll on the material. makes no sense to use it on a soffit .... and if you don't glue those pvc plugs in over the recessed screws they will alway pop out.
got that concrete is soupy
Some of the rebar didn’t seem 45mm from the edge
Anyone know good US suppliers for European radiators or the brand that Richard highlights @ 14:15?
This old house used to be about learning the steps to do it yourself. Now it's just how to write a check to a wealthy contractor.
I'm still learning. I picked up two tips off of today's episode that I can immediately apply to my upcoming deck rebuilding project.
This Old House starter pack (or staata pack): Everything purchased at a Wal-Mart by the way... work boots, classic fit blue jeans, flannel shirt and a tool belt.
You think these guys are buying their gear at Walmart? Ha!
Walmart doesn't sell Festool
They don't use concrete pump in Massachusetts?
That painting is crooked at 7:15
This says posted June 2020 so it is fairly recent, so I am perplexed to see Norm. I thought he retired? Am I missing something?
T Hyslop
... Norm was still doing a few cameo appearances for a few years and this episode is obviously a few years old, which is common for TOH on YT.
The right of warming your geaniums in winter.
Where are the full episodes available to view? Aside from this one?
On this channel?
15:43
Also, maybe lose square footage in basement by making a new footing and foundation wall that may fasten to existing foundation...
Francisco Jimenez
... by the time they frame the inside basement walls and add insulation the lost space will be only a few sq ft.
Why did they not rent a pumper to fill the forms? Less cost then labor going back and forth. wheel burro at a time takes forever.
Honestly, probably not worth the extra cost for such a small job. Plus, it was a short, smooth path from the truck to the pour site. The job took maybe two hours(not counting prep). A pump truck might have saved 15-30 minutes and used the same number of people to control it. There's also the slight possibility that the mix needed was not pumpable, but I bet the decision was based on the small size of the job.
Tom could use some advice on my hone in erie. Pa
Festool must be a sponsor. Seeing their tools everywhere on the job site. They have a whole integratec system with the modular cases and vac system for all their tools, but you are gonna pay big dollars. And try buying their replacement parts? Cut a sawzall cord by accident, replace a sanding pad on an orbital or need a new case and you are gonna have to pay up BIG TIME.
Some of the Festool tools are worth it, like that panel saw. I've had one for 11 years and it's excellent for cutting down finish plywood without wrestling it through a table saw - super straight, smooth cuts. Great for straightening out bowed boards, making straight cuts across existing hardwood flooring also.
@@probuilder961 Got Festool. I am just outraged at how they gouge you for replacement parts. I have had what seems like one of every manufacturer of different tools (Makita, Rigid, Dewalt, Hitachi,Milwaukee, Hilti, Bosch- yes, have and had all of these looking for the magic bullet with regard to the right power tools)
I hate being the guinea pig. Will buy something and find what it is I don't like about it, then the whole "I have more tools that have been lost or stolen issue". Lastly, trying to chase the whole upgrade path with the battery operated tools. Do not have any battery operated Festool only those with cords. Never have investigated whether Festooleven has battery operated.
I am subscribed why dont your videos show up in my subscriptions anymore?
yeah i have the same problem, and i have the notifications activated too
Same here, for at least a couple of weeks.
Same here, tried everything I can to get the videos to appear again but no success.
Is tom still working with this old house.
Good grief. What does a renovation like this cost???
With that amount of work, has to be nearing seven figures.
Which one? The current project or Manchester by the Sea? I think Manchester was in the low seven figures back when they did it(not that they ever typically give cost figures). Bet it would cost at least half again as much today, maybe double. The current project? Mid to mid-high six figures? Mostly due to higher costs in Mass due to more stringent regulations, higher labor costs, and that the house is in an historic district. In a different part of the country, I'd expect the same project for low-mid to mid six figures. They're basically building a new 3000sf house, after all.
The homeowners are both doctors so they can afford it.
My makita impact would fly those screw into that beam 20:30 why don't they use those
I think I would have used a vibrator to make sure that I got a full flow of mud under the stemwall.....
Where's Naormmm?
"The foundation wall is 12" thick and hasn't shifted, but we need to add a footing"
Why? I mean... WTF, why? Are they adding a couple stories? Noooo.
What a waste of time, money, and material.
i wonder how much they paid out so far in o.s.h.a fines so far.
Bet that tv cost 10k new
I wonder where the poor people live
Being a commercial union electrician making 52$ an hour and not even a foreman, it is pretty fun to watch wheelbarrow bitches slugging concrete around for 10$. Most of those guys are smart enough to be making 25$ plus in other union or non union trades. You break your back being a rod buster, concrete man, or brick layer unless you run the job or own the business. Why anyone WOULD WANT to do that puzzles me.
I used to like this show back when they were more DIY-friendly. Now it is so expensive, extravagant and reliant on ultra-tech that it feels out of my reach and increasingly irrelevant.
That footing is a waste of time and money, if rebar pins were drilled into the foundation wall at the base all around the wall in the same way they did for the Footing. Then when the slab was poured it would tie the entire foundation using the slab as a "footing" WHo was your structural engineer?? What that contractor did was totally useless.
I don't agree that it was useless, while that wide foundation wall may have been sufficient, they might have added more weight above requiring more support. A footing in New England is usually 10" thick (deep), so no adjoining slab is a sufficient substitute.
No
Beam Me Up Tommy??? really???
As an engineer their foundation mods seem flawed. They did nothing but make it deeper, not wider. Combine that with the fact they're disturbing the already compacted soil and it just feels poorly thought out.
The mod had to be stamped by an engineer or architect, and approved by the local building dept. If you don't like it - go argue with the person that stamped the drawing.
it's sistering the existing foundation. the forms seem to be about 4-5 inches wider than what was already there. what do you think the word wider means?
You think they just did that on their own? I guarantee you their was probably 5k in engineering costs alone added on for making sure that footing was done properly. As was said previously, then the local building engineer had to rubber stamp that change. Having just gone through something similar, I guarantee you it was done properly.
Two things to remember. First, the foundation wall was already at least a foot thick; they were only cutting under the foundation a few inches. Second(and most important), remember the reason for this in the first place: they are lowering the floor. They were not doing this to keep the wall from sinking, but to keep the bottom edge from kicking inward after they remove the dirt supporting the inside wall. With that in mind, deeper is better than wider in this particular case.
Why would you mess with installing a footing here. No need.
They're dropping the floor. They need to do something to keep the bottom of the foundation from kicking inward once the supporting soil is removed. The lack of a proper existing footing just made the job a little more complicated. The only difference is the cutting under the existing foundation instead of just going straight down alongside the foundation.
Not a fan of "modern"
I am more of a fan of the Victorian Age of houses myself.
Nice to see a good looking (corn fed?) girl as an apprentice!
Only the best high fructose corn syrup
what a HUGE money grab.....this place hasn't moved in decades. If its not broke why fix it?? Ridiculous!!!
Won't b coming back east anytime soon covid 19 and govenor of OREGON a prettier saloon maiden never existed mandated wearing a mask in Oregon and a cowboy hat also.🤠
