Lights, Camera, Service! Part One: A Chat With Ask This Old House Star Scott Caron

As a New England native, Scott Caron, Owner of Caron Electric in Lexington, Massachusetts, grew up a fan of the local home improvement TV show This Old House. So when his sister called him about an opportunity with its spinoff, Ask This Old House, he jumped at the chance.

Little did he know his on-air talents would take him to the 2023 Elite Trades Championship Series, airing on CBS Sports this December!

In our exclusive interview, Scott tells us how his childhood fascination with tinkering grew into a media career in multiple trades-focused productions, including color commentator for the ETCS.
