Host Steve Thomas helps build a sustainable and practical home for people with disabilities in Boulder, CO. He jumps in on inventive projects like an adjustable oven range and then discovers just how tricky it is when the slate floor he lays won't work for a wheelchair.

Later, Steve helps a do-it-yourselfer family install permeable pavers. Then, Steve builds a cabin from trees salvaged from forest fires.
