Home Again

Beach House Project


Monitoring Network and Waterproofing (HA0321)


Bob discusses the many cutting edge, environmentally sound features of our Malibu project with an ecological consultant, then visits "Home Improvement" star Tim Allen for a tongue-in-cheek tour of his very own home improvement project. Back on site, the house is wired with a "smart house" all-systems monitoring network, and hot-mopped tar is used to waterproof the stairway planter.
