I met Tommy at Home Depot in Saugus, MA about 7-8 years ago and he was so nice and polite! I was awe struck and so excited to recognize him. He was gathering materials for a local project, but he took the time out to chat with me. Wicked nice guy!
Roger Cook is the landscaper right? I always wanted to meet “Rock Roger” who was the stonewall and pathway rock guy years ago. He was a real piece of work.
I'm 50, and I watched this old house, and then came ATOH. I ❤️ it then and watch old episodes on Roku network. I love watching Tom Silva and the crew . RIP Mr Cook
Norm and Tommy made the show what it is. Kevin O’Connor is an absolute natural host. He and wife’s home was being renovated when Russ Morash asked him if he wanted to be the new host since the series was in need of a new host. I miss Norm and Roger.
One of the best examples of a construction mentor to so many generations. I never change the channel when Tommy or the crew from This Old House is on. Thank you for teaching all of us valuable lessons! Stay safe!
@@El.BigPapá- Probably because the title to this video seems to suggest something (omen) has happened to him when nothing has happened to him... I also took the bait, but I’m out.. bye..
I think the best described is “Housewright Extraordinaire” both of them. Homeowners and people in the trades should thank them for the knowledge they shared.
Totally CRUSHING Tommy's design skills and knowhow, especially his willingness to teach with patience all who strive to learn. That is the TOH surperpower - educating the next generation of tradespersons. Love that! ❤❤❤
You didn't mention Norm Abrams! He was masterful and he and Tom is what this show was all about.Most people only watched this show because of Norm's skills and personality.
Norm Abrahams, awesome guy, met on the sidewalk and had lunch in his hometown by accident years ago, a real contractor, craftsman and furniture maker, charisma not so much but he showed viewers his remarkable skills even though some was done on equipment even most contactors don’t even own. He's the guy like Tommy you want to sit with and pick his brain.
@@myhandymanharry4492 I can't say I agree with the "charisma" comment as I found Norm to be much more interesting to listen to than any of the others. Norm would provide much more detail while Tom seemed to brush over many important steps. But I enjoyed every one of them.
At my son’s college orientation, there was a reception for the parents. Looking around the crowd of unknown parents, my brain goes “oh there’s Norm”. Then I think, who the heck is Norm and how do I know him? As I stared at the man wearing a flannel shirt, it dawned on me. Norm! Couldn’t get close to him as he was surrounded by men.
I miss Norm Abrams as well, but I also like Tom Silva, of course. I learned about dove tailing from watching Norm Abrams way back when This Old House was on PBS 😊 ❤
I do some DIY home improvement, but not to the extent shown on This Old House. I enjoy watching the show simply because of the quality of the program, its people and their abilities. I learn things I don't really use, but it's fun to stretch my brain while watching and listening to experts. When I have a project I'm not comfortable with doing myself and have to hire out the work, I have some idea of what needs to be done and can discuss it intelligently with the person who will be doing it.
I grew up in historic Philadelphia and got my feet wet doing roofing and siding construction on old Victorian houses. I always liked this Old House and learned a lot from all those guys, great show and great people. Thank you
Indeed, I have enjoyed for many years TOH and Mr. Silva's crew of expert craftsmen. Have learned much over the years which I put to use on my own projects. Still enjoy reading TOH magazine, even though I have not done a home project in a while, but still get inspired to do something to improve my home. Good to know that Mr. Silva has not retired, just yet.
You can still see Tom on Ask This Old House and the original (and still the best remodeling show) This Old House. I believe his nephew, Charlie, has taken over the day-to-day operations of the construction company, but Tom is still there.
Tom has to be number one in the world on problem solving of reconstruction any home redevelopment,I’ve been watching Bob villa,when I was like 12 years old,starting watching like 1988,
I have wondered for years about Tom Silva. Reason is, in the early 60s When I was discharged from the Army I worked with friend named Joe Silva. He and his family, wife two sons and a daughter, lived in Islington Massachusetts. We became good fishing buddies Joe and I. Unbelievably Joe's youngest son's name was Tommy. Tom Silva is an Identical twin to my old friend Joe. His personality, build, facial features are all absolutely identical to Joe Silva. Joe was more than twice my age at the time but we both loved fishing and we fished nearly every weekend for quite a few years. I tried quite a few times to communicate with Tom to ask if my old friend Joe Silva was his father to no avail. Though I'm thinking both Tom's would be close to each other's age I finally know he is not Joes son.
As Phillip says they could easily be 1st cousins. Example: my grandmother, mother, cousin, older sister and myself look very much alike and are obviously related. My sister was actually mistaken for our mother once. My sister didn't look old, my mother was very young looking even well into her 60's.
This Old House was a great program and Tom Silva is a class guy and real pro. I’m sure he doesn't remember me from the past, I’m a retired contractor formerly from Boston and have always been impressed with his sharing of knowledge with homeowners and the public. Can’t remember the exact time if it was before or the beginning of This Old House but over time I met him, Bob Villa, and had lunch with Norm Abrams with an invite to his shop after in his hometown and was fortunate to have numerous introductions to sports celebrities thanks to friends and clients.
Tom Silva is a REAL craftsman. Bob Villa was a marketing major who recognized an op to get into the housing industry. He had business cards made up citing him as a "contractor". Only he didn't know crap about construction. He still doesn't.
@@michaelwolf6424 First realize this show and others that followed are entertainment. Everyone has their op to shine and while Bob Villa wasn't my favorite, he’s a household name and deserves to be recognized for his part in the TOH success. I wouldn’t hire him as a contractor but always said part of my business was because of Bob, he told homeowners they could DIY, and they can’t and needed a contractor to fix it. Then there is Norm Abrahams, awesome guy, met on the sidewalk and had lunch in his hometown by accident, a real contractor, craftsman and furniture maker, charisma not so much but he showed viewers his remarkable skills even though some was done on equipment even most contactors don’t even own. Bob Villa was the original ringmaster with the vision to put it altogether and if nothing else thank him for that.
I bought a Silva company tee shirt before they started marketing them. My wife actually takes to Tom's wife to give her our address! So cool, this was before the Internet when people actually ordered from another human lol It doesn't fit me anymore, but i'll never get rid of it. I've learned so much from him, and Norm and the show. Have been watching it from the very first episode.
Nice description of what he was doing over the years, but you never said or showed what became of him. And you didn't even mention (except for his picture) Norm Abrams, who was just as energetic and imaginative as Tom. On a scale of 1 to 10, this video warrants a 2.
The only reason the video didn't say what happened to him is because nothing happened to him. He got old and slowed down but he hasn't stopped. He's 77 years old and still active in Silva Brothers Construction.
Amen, amen and AMEN! All they want us to view their video's. Thus, they will lie, etc, to get us subscribed; because then; they get the money. Sad, but OH so True.
So happy to hear the that TOH IS GOING STRONG but lately I can't see any new shows on one house they were working on, for two months now every show is the same episode or the one after it but just those two episodes repeating for two months, now another older show from 2019 use replaying while I haven't seen the previous finished. One show done on a First generation house in Massachusetts, a Red House turned almost Cantaloupe orange according to the new color the home owners chose I watched the entire transformation from very first show and then when I was supposed to see the final show with the tour of the completed project I never saw it and can't even find it looking it up on U-Tube. I find other episodes of that house being worked on but have never seen the completed episode and it's extremely frustrating and disappointing to almost making me disillusioned.
The title of this article is click-bait. Nothing happened to Tom Silva. He's still remodeling houses on my local PBS station, as he has been for years. But, the author got his wish since I clicked on this useless article. If you want to what happened to Tom Silva from Ask This Old House, just watch Ask This Old House, or watch This Old House. Both shows still air on my PBS station.
This type of man is what Americans love ❤️ Tom you are what my dad call A MAN Of ALL GREAT SKILLS !! You are also someone that people who want to learn fallow ! We all appreciate and applaud you ! That a great remembrance to America !
Every home and business should install a rain water collection and storage system along with solar panels. Even in areas where rain is infrequent it is crazy to waste the little rain that does fall and waste it. We need to stop planting green lawns and switch to local native plantings around homes. It is crazy to plant lawns and build golf courses in dry desert areas. We waste too much water and electricity.
The number of views on this video do not reflect on the presenter but, the love of Tom Silva. No one loves Click Baiters but, those fans of TOH and more so Tom Silva knew better that he is doing just fine. Screen Static are low life’s. What crap.
It's so sad what happened to him. I wish I could have such skill and misfortune and live a terrible life like him. I just hope you just get all the facts right for me, too.
Tom is very, very good, but to not even mention Norm Abrams is almost sacrilege! Norm was the head carpenter for TOH when Tom started on the program and they worked together for many years.
I always liked watching the show it was mostly a showboat for high end contractors. Most people can't afford that kind of renovation were stuck with unpermitted handy men, and DIYers.
Lets not forget before Tommy there was NORM ABRAM, master carpenter who was with This Old House for many years along with his show New Yankee Workshop -- how can anyone discuss the history of TOH without mentioning Norm Abram-!?
He was such an egotistical a-hole, he was hard to watch. Even watching old episodes of This Old House on Roku you can see how much of control nut he was back then.
Sure are a lot of folks complaining that the video about Tom Silva is not talking about Norm. In a video about Tom Silva. In a video. About. Tom Silva.
Your Right bob wasn't the star of the show. It was tom and norm and jim the plumber. I hope i got his name right. No disrepect but we all know who the stars were. It wasn't bob .
@@roberth3793 Yes. Steve Thomas has been in the wooden-boat trade before TOH. Kevin was not in the trades. He was actually the resident owner of a house these guys worked on, and the producers hired him as host. The fact that Kevin didn't know anything about the trades is a running gag on the shows.
Was hoping to learn something new based upon that title. Was disappointed to learn this was simply another empty clickbait title. Channel gets blip for this comment engagement… but a hit for downflag and block.
This post appears to be nothing more than a way to post ads for revenue. The tile infers that Silva went somewhere, then it goes off on histories and trivia. I don't think Silva has gone anywhere. Just my opinion.
The only criticism I have with Tom Silva is that he uses the cheek of a hammer for driving way too often. Using the cheek at times has its place, but it's really not the proper way to use it.
I met Tommy at Home Depot in Saugus, MA about 7-8 years ago and he was so nice and polite! I was awe struck and so excited to recognize him. He was gathering materials for a local project, but he took the time out to chat with me. Wicked nice guy!
I had a similar encounter with Roger Cook at the Waltham Costco -- nicest guy ever!
Roger Cook is the landscaper right? I always wanted to meet “Rock Roger” who was the stonewall and pathway rock guy years ago. He was a real piece of work.
Was he wicked smart 😁
Tom and the whole TOH crew have brought decades of television entertainment and home renovation information to millions. Thank you, PBS!
It's nice to see a younger generations recognize it all and be grateful.
Thank you.
I'm 50, and I watched this old house, and then came ATOH. I ❤️ it then and watch old episodes on Roku network. I love watching Tom Silva and the crew . RIP Mr Cook
The title of the video is misleading because it implies that something bad or scandalous happened to him
agree
Yea good Ole click bait. Not to mention the maker got alot of facts wrong.
Not if you understand UA-cam and click-bait. Always look in the comments for clues.
@@LemonySnicket-EUC Well, you get TO the comments AFTER clicking the BAIT. So, yes.
I despise people who make posts insinuating bad thoughts as click bate. They need to make a law against it.
Norm and Tommy made the show what it is. Kevin O’Connor is an absolute natural host. He and wife’s home was being renovated when Russ Morash asked him if he wanted to be the new host since the series was in need of a new host. I miss Norm and Roger.
Yes, Mike Rowe had Kevin on his podcast & I gained a new higher respect for him.
One of the best examples of a construction mentor to so many generations. I never change the channel when Tommy or the crew from This Old House is on. Thank you for teaching all of us valuable lessons! Stay safe!
What happened to Tom? He's semi-retired and living comfortably while collecting royalties on his prior work.... as he should!
I’m glad he’s semi retired, I hope he’s enjoying life and spending time with his family and friends. Good for you and good luck in the future
You sound mad
@@El.BigPapá-
Probably because the title to this video seems to suggest something (omen) has happened to him when nothing has happened to him... I also took the bait, but I’m out.. bye..
@@ejeanroh377 I fell for it too. Nothing happened except he's still busy and cool. Lame headline.
Yea maybe like Wade Boggs at the fish & chips dive🎉😅
Mr. Silva is a legend. It’s a treasure when you can obtain services from such talent and integrity,
Tom Silva was always my favorite on the show. Great man.
Same here
Tom Silva and Norm Abram are two of the most skillful master carpenters I’ve ever seen, I’ve learned so much from them. Thanks guys 👍
I think the best described is “Housewright Extraordinaire” both of them. Homeowners and people in the trades should thank them for the knowledge they shared.
Totally CRUSHING Tommy's design skills and knowhow, especially his willingness to teach with patience all who strive to learn. That is the TOH surperpower - educating the next generation of tradespersons. Love that! ❤❤❤
Tom Silva my favorite guy from This Old House through the years,he is a nice men and great carpenter !
He is THE GOAT ! He's inspired me through the years to just Try It and figure it out. The right tool helps too !
I admire Tom's skills and his professionalism while wishing him strong health and successes in his great career.
I adore him and he is brilliant

It’s about Tom not Norm
Got half way through and realized you were not even mentioning the legend Norm Abram. What a scoff to one who made This Old House a success.
I miss Norm Abrams as well, but I also like Tom Silva, of course. I learned about dove tailing from watching Norm Abrams way back when This Old House was on PBS 😊 ❤
Yah, that was messed up. Norm was one the the fundamental players. I'm surprised, disappointed and concerned.. ..

Tommy is a national treasure. I meet him once at a Trader Joes in Sarasota Florida some years back with his wife. A wonderful man!!!
I have always enjoyed watching his mastery at carpentry. I could watch him all day!
I downloaded This old house app and stream it whenever I want 👍
I grew up in historic Philadelphia and got my feet wet doing roofing and siding construction on old Victorian houses. I always liked this Old House and learned a lot from all those guys, great show and great people. Thank you
Great guy and an awesome teacher. Go Tommy!
You are totally forgetting Norm Abrams!
He's the type of guy you goto for answers. When he speaks, listen. Ty Tom.
What really happened to videos worthy of 10 minutes of my day, this sure the hell wasn't one of them.

Charlie is a "horse", he'll be leading the TOH crew for years to come.
Tom is a Net Giver rather than a Net Taker. We love the Justice in seeing his type Win! ⚖️⚖️⚖️
Tom Silva is best Carpenter and Craftsman there ever was! Just that simple.

truly all around gifted beyond many. no replacing this guy and norm.

Pretty sneaky, "what really happened to Tom Silva"
CLICK BAIT. NOT GOOD
Suckered me, too lol

I watch this old house just to hear Tommy’s Boston accent! It’s so nostalgic for me!
I have watched him since his first showing. I have learned much even though I have been a builder in the past..

thank for the update. i have wondered what happened to Tom
Oh poor Tommy, this was a waste of my Time, I never heard what happened to him
What happened to Norm Abram? He started the show.
Great man, Tommy. Nice tribute.
One thing (one of many) I haven't learned from Tom yet, grab a hand-drill drill a hole on a wood board. And the hole comes out perfectly 90 degrees!
Love This Old House.😊

Huh?
@@philipethier9136- Sarcasm.
Born in 1947?! Hopefully Tommy's made enough money and living the life of bouncing grandkids on his lap. He's earned it! Hope He's enjoying life.
So what did happen to Tommy ?
Nothing, because this video owner LIES!
He got old and slowed down. Everyone does.
Tommy is the best.
Tom Silva .......... Legend !!
That's crazy!! His DAD was a carpenter?!?! Stop the presses!
Love this guy.
He is still on this old House
My all time favorite show....
Tom is very, very good, but to not even mention Norm Abrams is almost sacrilege! Norm was the head carpenter for TOH when Tom started on the program and they worked together for many years.
Great show(s). Amazing people. Been watching for decades . These guys are true masters of their trade .
All those guys on those shows are making 'big bucks'.
So nothing happen to Tom Bad lead in carrot
I always liked watching the show it was mostly a showboat for high end contractors. Most people can't afford that kind of renovation were stuck with unpermitted handy men, and DIYers.
Lets not forget before Tommy there was NORM ABRAM, master carpenter who was with This Old House for many years along with his show New Yankee Workshop -- how can anyone discuss the history of TOH without mentioning Norm Abram-!?
What about Norm Abram he just seem to had disappeared
If you want it done right , call Tom!
UA-cam sucks when they allow this kind of outright LIES about people..crap !!!!!
The news does it to the entire nation every single day
just report the video
So sad to see, that "this America" is going away. Instead we see totally crappy modern HGTV circus.
Why i see alot of ads?
So, what exactly happened to Siva? Did he get sucked into a parallel universe?
Didn’t John Boy host this show at one time I still see Tom Silva all the time. I want to know what happened to Bob Vila
He was such an egotistical a-hole, he was hard to watch. Even watching old episodes of This Old House on Roku you can see how much of control nut he was back then.
Sure are a lot of folks complaining that the video about Tom Silva is not talking about Norm. In a video about Tom Silva. In a video. About. Tom Silva.

He's Superman. The real one.
Your Right bob wasn't the star of the show. It was tom and norm and jim the plumber. I hope i got his name right. No disrepect but we all know who the stars were. It wasn't bob .
Richard is the plumber
Thanks for the correction on names.
Rodger and Norm were the true tradesmen. All the others just made it look good for the camera and had their helpers do all the real work.
The host after Bob Vila was Steve Thomas
@@roberth3793 Yes. Steve Thomas has been in the wooden-boat trade before TOH. Kevin was not in the trades.

Does Tom regiment Rock Wool insulation?
He's in his workshop barn.. Drinking cuttysark and Pabst blue ribbon, keeping it real.
I came here thinking that Tom had died. Can you consider changing this to something along the lines of, "How Tom Silva became a household name"?
So what really happened to Tommy? We'll never know. I do know I'll never get these 9 min back
Tom Silva is an absolute legend. No thanks at all to these clowns at Screen Static.
EDIT the title of this vid to: "Tom Silvas history of building construction". or "What Happened to Tom Silva from early days until now"
answer: nothing
You skipped over Norm. ?
so what happened to him?
Wheres bob villa at these days
thank goodness... i thought this was going to sully his reputation with something like Tommy committed heinous crimes or something.
A dog dreams of having a Richard as straight as Tom Silva.
This post appears to be nothing more than a way to post ads for revenue. The tile infers that Silva went somewhere, then it goes off on histories and trivia. I don't think Silva has gone anywhere. Just my opinion.
He’s on IG. Along with his catch of a daughter Kate.
Thought he’d be worth way more than 5 million. He’s been on tv forever.
Warning clickbait!
The only criticism I have with Tom Silva is that he uses the cheek of a hammer for driving way too often. Using the cheek at times has its place, but it's really not the proper way to use it.
