Building old fashioned fireplaces once required elaborate staging and costly material. Now, with modern building materials like manufactured stone, they're now a relatively easy way to dress up a bland room. For this project, expert stone masons Derek Stearns and Dean Marsico travel to South Carolina to create a manufactured stone fireplace that has the look of real stone — without the cost.

When architect Michelle Kauffman designed her Glidehouse dream home, she never imagined it would become so popular. Now Kauffman’s mass-producing her Glidehouse using modular prefab design, and the Minor family wants to have one of their own. However, getting the oversized modular home onto their lot on Puget Sound’s Whidbey Island is no easy task. Will the crew be able to get the 16-foot wide modules up a 9-foot wide driveway and around a hairpin turn? Find out on Assembly Required.
