NAHB-Produced Programs on DIY, Fine Living and HGTV

The NAHB Production Group produces weekly television shows on DIY, Fine Living and HGTV for consumers. The following is the latest lineup:

"Rock Solid" on DIY

Episode: "Fire Pit and Grill"

• Sept. 27, 4:00 p.m. EST

 

Expert stone masons and hosts Dean Marsico and Derek Stearns create an outdoor fire pit and grill California style. Using western stone and a laid-back attitude, they combine two concepts — a fire pit and grill — into one sleek modern design that's easier to put together than a three-picture deal with DVD residuals. So whether it's hanging by the fire or grilling lemon herb salmon, Dean and Derek guarantee a warm satisfied glow when this project is done.

"I Want That" on Fine Living

Episode: "Aquaclimb, Protecting Seedlings, Hiding Secret Stash"

• Sept. 24, 10:30 a.m. EST
• Sept. 24, 1:30 p.m. EST

 

Soup up a swimming pool with a climbing wall, attach a receiver to speakers disguised as artwork and check out pillows that can hide a secret stash. Plus, play Willy Wonka with the Candy Factory Kit, protect stemware with a gentle, automatic dish dryer that sits on a kitchen countertop and discover a weather-resistant frame to protect seedlings from the frost.
