A huge drywell goes in under the front lawn to handle any water pumped out of the basement sump, and chimney specialist Mark Schaub and crew show us the newly "Rumfordized" front parlor fireplace and the cast iron Victorian fireplace inserts they've installed in the dining room and in Sue's office. Homeowner Sue Denny uses a biodegradable stripper to remove built-up varnish from the old oak doors, while Tom and our master carpenter fabricate new fluted posts and replica goosenecks for the house's porches. The new copper shingle system is being installed on all the porch roofs.
