Marble Tile, Cherry Cabinets, and the Brooklyn Academy of Music (HA1408)


Tile work in the bathroom is the first item in this episode. Nick Tagios from Tagios Tile and Marble is on hand to do the installation. Tagios uses a dry mortar bed to level the floor before installing the marble tile. In the kitchen, Gam Danziger from Craftline Cabinets is installing new cabinets in the center island. Danziger demonstrates his technique for securing the island to the floor, using a three-quarter-inch spacer and a two-by-four block. A trip to downtown Brooklyn takes Bob to the historic Brooklyn Academy of Music. The main building, which dates back to 1908, is in the midst of an enormous $8,000,000 renovation to restore it to its original luster.
