最重要的是在吊顶倒塌时发现的飞檐造型完好无损。造型将为主要的生活空间定下基调，在那里，砖块已经被拆除，安装了烟道内衬和壁炉。所有40年代的墙壁、表面和天花板处理都消失了，板条和石膏也消失了，留下了原始建筑的裸露的砖和暴露的托梁。改建工程已经切断或损坏了托梁，因此需要重新装修地板和天花板。地板托梁是姐妹的，为木地板下面的乔治亚-太平洋Plytanium地板提供了一个水平、坚实的基础。激光水平仪允许木匠在整个公寓内设置水平线，水平方向为地板，垂直方向为他们正在安装的新钢钉。最后，一个灵活的烟道衬套穿过墙壁，并为新壁炉的烟囱。

Thorough Construction的首席木匠Connor McKenna将面板粘合剂涂在新的姐妹托梁的顶部，然后在顶部铺设4 × 8的Georgia-Pacific Plytanium坚固地板。这是一种舌形槽底地板，足够坚固，可以作为硬木地板下的唯一一层。
一旦固定并锁定到位，Plytanium就会用传统的甲板螺钉(而不是干墙螺钉)钉在托梁上，为接下来的硬木地板创造一个更坚固、更好、更安静的安装环境。
鲍勃·维拉:我们铺设的标准4x8的衬垫显然必须每隔一段时间就修剪一次，这张也不例外。我们只是用粉笔线，给自己一个指导方针，这样我们就可以把纸撕开一点点。这是很厉害的东西。他们将其称为Georgia - Pacific Plytanium坚固地板，这种产品是一种带舌和沟槽的4x8板材，可以在任何情况下用作衬垫。它的美妙之处在于，你只需要一层就可以安装硬木地板，这就是我们在这里要做的，或者对于任何简单的东西，比如墙对墙的地毯或乙烯基地板或其他任何东西。它很好，很结实。伙计们，你们现在都已经预先剪辑好了，准备好了，所以让我们来谈谈你们是怎么做的。你要先把面板粘上吗?康纳。麦凯纳:是的。鲍勃:给你。 That goes along the tops of the newly added sisters. These products are incredibly strong glues that not only help for a better installation, but make for a quieter installation. That's one thing you always want to avoid when you're putting down hardwood floors, is the potential for movement, which causes squeaks. This is one way of avoiding it. The screws that you use for fastening are drywall not wood screws. You want to make that distinction, because you want to make sure you have a sure grip on this plywood. That looks good. Connor, how close together are you going to apply the screws? Connor: Every six to eight inches. Hold that there. Bob: Alright, that looks pretty darn good. As I say, that makes for a real solid floor. Thanks fellas. Connor: Alright. Bob: Let's go towards the front and talk with the plumber. Mario Pagano is back with us this week. Hey. Mario Pagano: Hi, Bob. Bob: How are you? We're removing what is essentially waste and vent pipes from what was a bathroom here, right? Mario: Yep. To take everything back as far as possible, to the existing risers, as we call them. Bob: The change in use of the space is to make this a big kitchen area. Mario: Exactly. Bob: That's going to be a wet wall, so this is right in the middle of my kitchen, and this has to go. This is all venting? Mario: Yeah, that's exactly what it is. It's just to eliminate fumes, sewer fumes as well as pressure. Bob: What's the pressure part of the story? Mario: Water fights air pressure, and that air pressure needs to be eliminated as the water makes its way down by natural gravity. Not only does it eliminate the fumes, it also eliminates the air pressure. Bob: This is what was the trap. We had a sink here last week. Mario: The old pink sink. Bob: This was the waste that went down and this is the vent that goes up from here. Now, can this all be replaced with PVC? Mario: Absolutely not. Not in New York City. Bob: Why not? Mario: Code, and anything under three stories. I am sorry, anything over. Bob: Over. Mario: Exactly. It has to be the cast iron, or galvanized steel, as we see here. Bob: I think that's a good call. You've already started cutting it over here. Mario: We're taking everything out. Bob: Everything out? Mario: Correct. Bob: Last week, of course, we took out everything that was decorative. This was the world's pinkest bathroom, which had an amazing pink bathtub and floor and wall tile. Of course we saved the sink. I'm not sure what we're going to do with the sink. What happens next here? Mario: We took the liberty of supporting everything to make sure it's safe. We're literally taking everything back as far as possible, to possibly re‑utilize just one connection to vent the future fixtures. Other than that, everything goes. Bob: There you go. - 第2部分:安装烟囱衬板

这个项目涉及两种截然不同的家的概念。鲍勃从纽约市上西区开始，在那里，一座19世纪90年代的褐石建筑通过高质量的工艺和敏感的设计而重新焕发活力。纽约的过去与现在相遇，整个楼层被重新夺回并翻新，在中央公园门口创造了一个宽敞的城市公寓。
与此同时，鲍勃与科德角的一家开发商合作，应用马萨诸塞州土地使用法规40B来建造经济适用房，以及马萨诸塞州马什皮的一个社区。这些获得“能源之星”认证的住宅表明，高质量的建筑实践和合理的要价可以共同为在我们社区工作的人们提供宜居、负担得起的住房和社区。
