\u201cWe create features and bring in experts that will educate and entertain our guests,\u201d Treadway said. \u201cThe vast majority of consumers shop for their home improvement project online first and the home show steps in where online leaves off, with the opportunity to speak to local professionals in person and get advice on their specific project.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Marrs host the HGTV program \u201cFixer to Fabulous.\u201d The husband-and-wife duo specializes in the renovation and restoration of historic homes through their company, Marrs Developing. <\/p>\n
