Daryl's Restoration Over-Hall

After designing the new space and signing off on the plans, Daryl Hall finally breaks ground on the addition to his 1787 farmhouse. Unfortunately it doesn't take long to discover soil issues and rotting cellar beams.

After some setbacks, the foundation for the addition to Daryl's 1787 farmhouse is in. It's time to start putting up some walls, but a problem with the town causes a big delay and finding the right summer beams proves difficult.

The second story walls are up and Daryl Hall's ready to get the roof on and the windows in. Using some creative carpentry techniques, the new roof will look like it's been settling for two hundred fifty years.

Daryl Hall's ready to start working on the inside of the house and this time he has a very special guest. Nicole Curtis will be stopping by to give Daryl a hand refinishing a salvaged door for the new kitchen pantry.

With the frame of the addition complete, it's time for Daryl Hall to button up the outside of the house. He'll have to find period doors for the entrances, get up the clapboard, and find a mason to build the fireboxes and chimney.

With the outside of the house finished, Daryl Hall focuses on the inside. First is the Stone Room where Daryl plans to play some music. Along with finishing the interior, Daryl's getting ready for the opening of his new club.

Daryl Hall's ready to get started on the first floor, starting with the Sitting Room. Keeping it historically accurate, this front room will have a more formal and ornate look.

The addition to Daryl Hall's 1787 farmhouse is getting very close to wrapping up, but there's still plenty of work that needs to be done. Now it's time for Daryl to tackle the kitchen and he gives every detail his attention.

It's been a long road, but Daryl finishes up work on the addition to his house with great results.
