Today is the day the net zero house gets turned over to the Powers family. Kevin and Tommy pick up builder Jeff at the Idea House and drive to Jamestown. Jeff’s challenges were to make the house efficient but also make it fit in with the neighborhood. Donald meets them outside and shows them the exterior transformation. The coastal landscape already looks mature and is divided into many separate “rooms” for entertainment and projects. They see the new post and beam barn with a garage, workshop, guest suite, and the location of the new solar panels. Inside the house, Tommy goes upstairs to meet Dana who shows him the boys’ rooms, their bathroom, and the new master suite. Kevin helps Jeff put up a mirror in a bathroom. Tommy and Don comment how the white oak shiplap siding and flooring, bookcase and hand rails give the living room a clean simple look. Kevin meets Richard at the back of the barn where it’s command central for the net zero house. The solar panels will provide enough electricity for the house. The heat recovery units quietly pump into five zones so that the house can receive both warm and cool air where needed as well as provide hot water at any time. Kevin meets Dana in the mudroom where there’s plenty of storage. In the powder room, they check out the sink console that Don built with Tommy. The kitchen has seen the biggest transformation with beautiful cabinets, appliances, tile, ceiling and floors, and counters. The gang joins them and they declare the net zero house a success.

I giggle every time I see a fence or gate that isn't connected to anything.
"Here's our nice gate-"
DUDE, you can literally walk around it when its closed. Those bushes aren't stopping anyone XD
I love this house because it is the perfect size! No room is too big or too small. Also, the white oak and the shiplap all tie in amazingly well.
This is a dream home. Wow, great job everyone involved!
This is such a beautiful, comfortable home. As a displaced Californian, I appreciate the Craftsman details but the white oak adds an appeal that, if I could, I would add to my own home. I just love it.
My dream job would be an apprentice with Tom Silva! Great show, I've been watching it for 40 years.
ROGER!!!! I'm gonna miss not seeing him so much anymore on this old house, love the entire this old house team, I'm not in any of your professions yet but I'd definitely consider it.
Always love to see this show-been watching for over 3 decades and it’s just a very comfortable memory.Seeing Norm in the background at the end always puts a smile on my face.Thanks for making this possible
Yeah, I miss Norm. I've always wished I had his woodwork skills.
Good to see Roger and Norm!
Right, even though they shouldn't have been all the way at the back of the group. Roger could have done more on this project than just talking about the grass for 2 minutes last episode.
Ben, I think health issues have been the reason for his limited roll. I agree it would have been nice to see them both up front.
@@JeremyJohnson79 I know that. He still could have at least done something else since they apparently wanted him on this project.
21:43 There's Roger! Looking good.
I liked the painting update. It brings some home history into the mix!
Jeff was pretty awesome. Great personality, does great work and a natural in front of the camera.
Does anyone know if they ever did an update with this couple to determine if it really turned out "net zero"?
I am neighbour of this family, the house burnt to the ground in mysterious circumstances, the insurance didn't pay out, something to do with long nails and a gas pipe, the couple have now split and she lives in Gary, Indiana in a mobile home with a guy called Eberardo Perez Sanchos, they have a baby boy, the last I heard about the man was he was sleeping rough and had a drink problem, the kids are doing fine by all accounts, where the house was is now a strip mall with a Dollar store and a tanning salon.
@@kevinbaird7277 Outstanding!!
@@diannemoore3625 I just spent 10 mins searching and found nothing to corroborate their claim. I would ask for a link to back up what they said.
@Chris He was probably just being sarcastic.
@@kevinbaird7277 you went into too many details which completely ruined your attempt at humour. Less is more, dullard.
Wow season 40! I remember watching this with my dad on PBS Channel 9 up here in BC, Canada. Happy to see this icon of a show is still relevant. I love the zero drama non scripted style of the show. I can't stand the TLC reality style home shows.
I completely agree. I grew up on this show as well and never thought much more of it. I tried watching a few of those "house repair shows" and got tired of it after 20 identical bath and shaker cabinet combos mixed with fake drama.
17:39 omg the frame 😂😂🤣🤣 "speaking of priceless" kevin is hilarious
17:42 It's good to see Norm in the Picture... the things I know about woodworking i know thanks to him! NYWS
By why did Norm not sign the picture?
I love the black trim and accents on the exterior of this home ! I also love all the shiplap on the inside! The homeowner did a great job picking finishes!
The big black gate between the privet hedges looks strange. Maybe it will look better when the hedges fill in around it.
The detail and craftsmanship that went into this house is incredible! I wonder what the entire budget was 🤔
Man that's beautiful! Would like to know why the grass doesn't look oval shaped as it was drawn in the plans.
God what a beautiful home, so tastefully done! Don and Dana knocked it out of the park with their design and Jeff went above and beyond.
Black trim is ugly
Knocked it out of the park? Such a uniquely dumbass USA phrase. Grow a brain
40 years! Congrats.. We're still watching so please keep producing!
Theo got jibbed! Swap rooms Theo!
Watching them install that big mirror in the bathroom made me groan. I've removed them from two different houses and want to do it again to a third.
Having the bathroom door open against the glass shower would make me a nervous wreck.
I'm sure a door stopper is in place but I saw what you saw as well.
And in both of the bathrooms yet. I don’t like the placement of the doors even with door stoppers.
@@roush876 and no there weren’t any that I could see.
What a great job. Enjoyed watching the transformation.
With net metering, do you get 'paid' for the energy you send back to the grid at the same rate you import? If so, I completely understand why battery storage wasn't considered. Still, amazing to see construction from a US perspective. Hoping to do the same with my UK house in bringing down emissions!
(Although this would have been around 2018/19 so battery storage wasn't as affordable / as it is now)
I am not sure if it differs from provider to provider but here in Iowa, USA with Alliant in 2023 we can only have a true 0$ bill. Alliant will never pay us. We technically have to push out $30 more than what we use to cover the meter rental cost. Back to your original question I believe it is a 1 to 1 rate for out and in.
Theo just gets a "hi" while they worship his brother, poor Theo.
Yeah but poor old theo got a pat on the head by tommy silva. Priceless!
@Joe Kinchicken WTF dude..
Well done. I just don’t want to end the show.
7:10 Wake up too fast, you now hit your head on the ceiling
I like to see the first and last of these old episodes.
I wish they would have showed more work inside the house
That’s what the past ten episodes are
I love these episodes! I love the show!!
I would love to know the budget that went into this
7 mil
A lot.
A worthy estimate would be around 400 to 500k, assuming they stick around costs of homes around them and don't overspend on total home worth. Most homes around there are 500k to low 700k. Mostly around 620k. Seeing condition of the home before and how small it was they mostly got the house for a steal around 75 to 125k and put a lot into everything else. Since they are designers and architects that cut costs by thousands as well. A home drawing can be a couple thousand. If they were smart and assuming they are net zero the home worth is prolly around 700k, with investment total into it renovating around 600k give or take. This is my guess based on values of homes in that city and size.
More then the house is worth. Net zero is incredibly expensive, but if it's your forever home, then worth it.
William Nett and not having to pay utilities they will make that money back hand over fist 24 hours a day.
Awesome series!! Loved the house and all you guys. Thank you.
9 months to completion and net zero? Definitely would like to know the construction costs for a project like this.
Maybe I missed something, as the construction of the barn/garage wasn't shown after the timber framing, but the barn appears to be un-insulated and the walls made of 3/4" Pine?
If they plan on keeping that as a workshop with a studio/guest room above it's going to be pretty cold in there without constant heat going...And with those thin un-insulated pine walls they're going to have to crank the heat. Pretty efficient!
Never put a bed below an angle ceiling, worst case you can put your feet at the angle part never a pillow
I missed something BIG! HOW were the exterior walls, foundations, roof modified with net zero insulation added? Nice interior stuff but where was the meat and potatoes of adding to or modifying the outside structure of this old house? Maybe another show covered it?
Awesome. I'd much rather see a house like this than a 500,000 dollar McMansion. Great work TOH team
They would have spent less on the McMansion. I'd like to see what they spent (both original cost of the donor house and reno) vs the current value. I'd bet they're under water.
Of course the owner doesn't care. He's using this as a showplace for his architecture practice.
@@bbmw9029 And if this was any other show, I'd say the show kicked in some (most) of the cost, but PBS doesn't exactly have a "Extreme Makeover:Home Edition" type of budget.
BB MW building net 0nis actually not that much more expensive, it’s on average 3 to 7 percent more for a new build although the retrofit might have made this harder. Overall if you live in a state where electricity is pricy and the weather either hot or cold, you would make that back in 10 to 15 years at current prices, that said, it will also sell for more, and it’s much more comfortable to live in, so imho it’s not a bad investment
@@bbmw9029 nah mate, look at homes in Jamestown Rhode island. And compare to what this home offers. Others sell for 600k or so, this is easily 700k. Got the house for a steal because it's small and not move in ready, let's assume around 100k, I think that's high. And so they put 450k to 500k into it and easily get 600 to 675k back on reno. Easily.
@@Billybillybillyrocking Sorry to say, but you sound insanely out of touch. A small dumpy house in a costal high end neighborhood never goes for 100k, developers buy those all the time for 500k to 1 million to tear down for the lot. From the show's context clues I'd guess the original purchase price was 300-500k, with a total project cost of 2 million.
That huge house, and they gave their kids those two little rinky dink rooms
I'm curious what finish they used on that bathroom power room countertop. White Oak..love it!
one of my favorite projects you guys have done!
can't wait for the mid century house
Theo actually got let out of the dungeon in the secret basement for this episode.
Lmao....lmao
Yea... it's not hard to tell which one is going to be the problem child in that family...did you guys ever get the vibe that those kids are adopted...I mean look at them and then look at the milk toast mother and father...idk ...I'm just saying !!!!!
@@leopirozzi1702 Just odd. Having worked in production in the past as a freelance, some people just can't seem take to "act naturally" as a direction.
Then again, most people who watch TOH are used to odd-ball home owners being odd-balls.
I don't think it was right to put Roger & Norm all the way to the back of the group like they didn't matter. I know Roger is slowly stepping down but he could have had more than just a few minutes of screen time talking about the grass on the previous episode. Then poor Norm didn't even have a part in this project & should have had at least some part in it as he is still a very skilled carpenter.
Those two are the only one's left out of the original crew & should have at least been recognized since they basically weren't used on the project as it's not often people stick around for the entire series of a show, especially when it lasts 40 years.
Beautiful home. Beautiful job
Won’t the workshop create a lot of dust in the upstairs bedroom
Yup, no doubt it will be a woody sort of smell, a unique feature I suppose!
There is something vaguely attractive about that wood dust/fresh timber smell.
I thought the same thing. Of course, he may have a pretty unlimited dust collection budget.
Congratulations
Can you imagine if something breaks? It would cost a fortune to get any of it fixed
Especially with the HVAC. One little piece goes bad and you'll need a team of engineers to figure it out.
@@jgood005 agreed
Have been involved in troubleshooting a 12-head Mitsubishi Electric unit for a dental office.... we had a module and laptop hooked up to the system
It doesn't bleed thought the mirra, look at that mirra.
This project probably cost more than I'll make in a lifetime lol
This is my favorite house of all the years of This Old House
Amazing house. Really nicely done
I really like this contractor's way of forward thinking, to orange paint the studs locations prior to finnish work smart, how many times has someone
Measured 16 in on center from a conner only to find out there's no stud in that location as your putting up sheetrock
Maybe the framers put it on the wrong side of the marks. Not everyone on the crew is sesiond vetrens some people are being trained how to do the job and people make mistakes that are not caught. Better to take a few extra steps then add on a bunch of holes that have to be fixed later on. Sheet rocks screws screwed to the air cavity of a wall dont hold anything. You cat hang a plasma TV to toggle bolts. Its not going to hold.
It really needs to be lag bolted to studs.
And not to the right or left of the center of a stud but dead center into wood.
If you think I'm joking the framers on my house put some studs in that are only held in place by a few sheetrock screws.
Nothing on the top plate or bottom plate, its not really a strucal wall just partition wall but had it been a load berring wall it wasnt up to code. Had somone done a walk threw on the house they would have seen the problems lets not get into what ways the crowns are facing becuse they are all over the place in and out up and down. Everyone know the crown faces the sky on a floor joist. Not my house.
If you walk into a house your planing on buying and you walk up and down the hill every room you enter, its becuse the framers sucked. And you'll play hell trying to install hardwood floors at some point.
A good start makes the finnish work look good.
17:17 "Mr. Melon, your wife was just showing us her Klimt."
Andy Werling what do you mean?
@@Alexanderbuilds2001 The painting was painted by an Austrian painter named Gustav Klimt. It's called "Der Kuss" or "The Kiss" in English.
To each their own.
I love this show... so tired of all the over-dramatized reality tv bullshit that is everywhere. This is comfortable.
Very nice house!
What is the material in the master bathroom shower? Does not look like it's tile, seems very easy to clean.
thanks for the videos! sorry keven i still think of you as the new guy lol 40 years i think ive seen almost every episode ..you guys are ageing well wonder if all the houses are doing the same it would be interesting to revisit every house see them now then and before this old house what changes have been made since
At 15:49 when they go to the new basement, does anyone see a drain at the bottom of that staircase?
The 5k solar system seems way undersized for a house which runs everything electric. Who the hell sized it that small? They need at least 7.6k if not 12k. The house has nice interior features but God they must have cost an unbelievable fortune. This is coming from someone who just built a house and I'm seeing huge dollar signs on all these finishes. I can see this costing over 1 mil easy!
some items are donated in exchange for the brand mentions.
Theo got shafted!
Whatever happened to the apprentices that were on the job?
They accidentally sealed themselves in the walls.
They don't actually use apprentices on jobs like this because they are a liability risk and would slow down things drastically.They were only on this project just for TV so it makes TOH look good & makes it look like they use them all the time.
They got their cards and got layed off.
Does this project count as a DIY?
I have a question, whatever happened to Norm Abrams? I haven't seen much of him on this project? Thanks again for the videos, plz, keep them coming? Thanks again Eric Sulen Grand Rapids Michigan.
Norm still does some stuff, but the man is now in his seventies. He helps primarily with the apprentices on the job site along with some detail work. In the most recent house, he helped restore some banisters in the house.
Yeah, he basically retired to spend time with his family.
Little Theo doesn't look very happy. I don't have good feeling about that.
have to agree
Stefan it seemed like he felt unincluded
It could just be being on TV and bunch of strangers makes him worried and cautious. It's totally normal for younger kids to be shy and look sad or grumpy.
12:05 - you definitely want to celebrate that - now let's get a away from that racket.
when is the pool coming?
You could tell poor tommy just wanted to move in the whole time. I cannot imagine the budget of this house.
it's net zero. all the savings went in.
''net zero'' soaking tub that ''holds a lot of water''. Meanwhile most everyone is lectured about using water to keep themselves and things clean. + Some farmers have had water needed for crops reduced.
The videos from this channel are no longer showing up in my subscription feed. I don't think I can do anything to fix it. It's really frustrating.
For me they occationally show up. And I have it so all notifications come in.
I think I unsubscribed and then resubscribed to fix that
@@Alex.smiffy tried that. Didn't work
@@truebeliever320 next thing I try is cleaning up my browser history. Has fixed a few weirdnesses in the past. good luck.
nice!
Wondering how much this would cost to do? Not cheap i can tell...we dont want cheap materials in the house but holy cow
Nice layout and attention to detail, thanks for sharing it with us.
I just want to know the brand of that refrigerator...
Refrigerator is "True". They make mostly commercial ones but have a residential line as well. Price range is around Sub Zero or higher.
15:46 - All this talk about net zero... and they leave the door open to the basement. Were ya born in a barn?
😂. That was EXACTLY what I thought when I saw that!!!!!
The kid got talent. 🙂
Love it keep it going
Nice $600 ceiling fan :)
I used to watch this as a kid. 7yrs old me watching this while everyone watching Super Why n Author
How much would it cost to have such kind of an house in USA?
Probably at least $1 million
Interesting, homeowner has a workshop, however he’s disinterested in the idea of maintaining his own lawn and greenery.
What song was this at the end?
What brand is that induction range?
ILVE
What make/model are the appliances?
Refrigerator is "True". They make mostly commercial ones but have a residential line as well. Price range is around Sub Zero or higher.
0:19 What in the hell is this? I've been watching this intro forever and I'm tired of wondering lol.
it's from the north shore farmhouse in s37, they used a mat from recycled tires to contain the explosion when they blasted through rock to make space for the foundation! there's a preview here th-cam.com/video/LPMUxOcMbUU/w-d-xo.html
Great house and great HVAC and solar system. I just don't understand why they would keep the expensive solar equipment outside to the storms and maybe to the vandals instead of putting it on the other side of the wall
That is a SolarEdge inverter. They are designed to be outside and having solar equipment outside means any future service calls do not require coordination with the home owner to let you in to the house.
As clean and “simple....” doesn’t sound like any architect I’ve worked for
Interesting to hear a snagging list reference to as a punch list. Very amusing.
The boy is amazing
wondering why jeff thought he was above wearing his seatbelt when travelling above 25 mph
Few things left on the Punch lif?...
He didn't say good co workers lmfao
haha he seriously looks like Robert Redford
What did this cost?
@@dffndjdjd $805,700
Kevin definitely needs a manssiere these days.
@@onechance8 Manssiere!
@@onechance8 Ok, but no tinsel, I find it distracting.
@@JohnComeOnMan you mean a ‘bro’!
I like the house but hate the family.
Is this the end of Tommy?
Probably not yet as he doesn't quite look like hes ready to retire but it might be the end of Norm though.
I'd like to point out that I really see zero electronics in this home. Considering two kids are growing up here, that's really going to set them back in career opportunities in the future if they aren''t going to grow up with computers around them. I'm all for balance in the life, but ignoring this aspect really is doing your children a disservice. That being said, there's lots to learn from this build! I'm very interested in reducing inefficiencies in my own place.
Seriously though, the attention to details in this project has my satisfaction organ in overdrive. I'm LOVING it!
And then they walk into the living room with a big TV, d'oh. go me!
The house is a museum. Im afraid it would get tore up.
