Although Jenny and Dave Marrs now have many viewers who follow along and watch their renovation process, their business first started simply and organically. Back in 2004, long before a TV show was ever even something they dreamed of, Dave started an Arkansas-based construction company. For a while, that was something he mostly managed, and Jenny wasn’t as involved.
However, as he explained to The List, their working partnership grew over time. Jenny would occasionally design things for the houses Dave was working on, and she also designed for other projects. In 2010, they “combined forces” to make their home renovation business more of a partnership. The two have worked together to balance their relationship, their business, and parenting ever since. Then in 2017, they first started sharing their journey with the world on “Fixer to Fabulous.” And according to Dave, “it’s been one episode at a time from there.” On the show, fans can watch along as the couple continues to renovate homes together, just as they have since 2010. But, while it may seem like the job they were made for and an opportunity that many would jump at, they had some reservations about sharing their life on TV.
