Looking for fresh challenges, the crew tackles its first true adaptive reuse project, turning a 1906 Arts and Crafts church in San Francisco into a young couple’s home. Beginning with the 2007–08 season, This Old House and Ask This Old House are presented in a high-definition television format. This Old House and its sister series Ask This Old House are often broadcast together as The This Old House Hour, which was originally known as The New This Old House Hour.

Old episodes are also shown under the program name This Old House Classics and were formerly shown on The Learning Channel under the name The Renovation Guide.

When you use your favorite coffee mug every day, it can eventually develop staining from the tea or coffee it’s filled with. While it would be easy to assume that these stains are permanent, toothpaste can often remove them with ease. Squirt a small amount of toothpaste onto your dish brush and scrub at the affected area before washing the mug as usual and watch the stains virtually disappear. It’s natural to drop some globs of toothpaste in the bathroom sink while brushing your teeth.

Through a multi-faceted approach, Bob Vila’s expertise and entrepreneurial ventures enabled him to accumulate a considerable fortune in the realm of home improvement. Bob Vila’s departure from “This Old House” led to the creation of another popular home improvement show. After leaving the show, Vila collaborated with another network to develop a similar series called “Bob Vila’s Home Again.” This show focused on unique renovation projects and provided him with a platform to share his expertise. But there were bigger issues at play, issues that cut at the core of PBS’ overall mission to provide quality public programming, and issues that constantly lingered behind the scenes.

This single-family residence was built around 1860 in a style that was very popular in the Victorian era. When producers contacted the couple, “all I heard was ‘Tom Silva’ and I said yes,” Kevin says. He and Kathleen had no idea that one of the segments they filmed would be part of a new show called Ask This Old House (episode 22) or that the producers would be back in touch. Between his many internet side projects, he finds time to hang out with his wife Cat, who's funnier than he is.

Magazine readers or show viewers submit home repair or improvement questions to the four regulars, who sometimes also invite guest experts to answer more-specialized questions. Most of the questions are answered in the home-base loft, but one or two homeowners in each episode receive an on-site visit from one of the show's hosts. The visiting host assists in starting or completing the task with the homeowners' hands-on participation. Over the course of several seasons, at least one of the traveling team members has been featured in a segment in each of the 50 US states. For a decade, Bob Vila left his mark as the charismatic host of “This Old House.” His expertise, enthusiasm, and affable nature resonated with viewers, who eagerly absorbed his wisdom and advice on everything from construction techniques to renovation projects. Vila’s genuine passion for preserving and restoring historic homes endeared him to audiences, making him a beloved figure in the world of home improvement television.

While there are products that are specially formulated to polish fine jewelry, you may not always have them on hand when your favorite pieces begin to look dull. Instead, grab a tube of toothpaste and use it to shine your silver, gold, and diamond jewelry to make it look brand new.

Toothpaste shouldn’t be used to clean soft gemstones like pearls and opals because they can easily be scratched. A foggy mirror can be a big hassle when you need it to get ready after taking a shower. Rubbing a non-gel toothpaste on the mirror and then wiping it off just before using the shower will prevent fog from clinging to it, so you don’t need to waste precious time waiting for the bathroom to air out.
