‘This Old House’ looking for next project in Greater Boston
You can apply to be on the PBS show between now and December 31.
This season of PBS’s “This Old House’’ in Belmont has been on the air for about a month, but producers are already looking toward next season. And they want to stay in Greater Boston.
And here is your chance to apply.
“This Old House’’ is searching for people who own their home and want to do a renovation or remodeling project to either save or update a historic home in the area.
The show is currently in its 36th season on the air. Each season PBS chooses two historic homes to renovate, with the aim to “demystify home improvement and provide ideas and information, so that whether you are doing it yourself or hiring out contractors, you’ll know the right way to do things and the right questions to ask.’’
You can start submitting now through December 31, 2015. The accepted project will start in the spring so that it will be ready for the 2016/2017 season of the show.
To submit your home for consideration you will need to do some of your own research and provide the show with the following:
– Brief description of the renovation project—be sure to also include house style, location and year built
– Low-res digital pictures of the home’s interior and exterior
– Any architectural plans or schematics
– Brief description of the current homeowners
– Low-res digital pictures of the homeowners
– How much you plan to spend
– When you need to start and conclude the project
You can email your proposals to [email protected] or submit them via regular mail to: This Old House Project Proposals, P.O. Box 130, Concord, Massachusetts, 01742.
