BENTONVILLE, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — A settlement has been reached in the lawsuit involving an Arkansas-based couple and stars of HGTV’s “Fixer to Fabulous” just days before the parties were set to go to trial.
Matthew and Sarah McGrath filed a lawsuit in February 2023, claiming a house built for them a year earlier had numerous defects and that the companies that built the home had breached a contract.
The defendants in the case were Jupiter Rentals and Marrs Construction, both owned by Dave Marrs.
The McGraths claimed they paid over $10,000 for upgrades on a Bella Vista home, including replacing the kitchen sink, adding stairs and a handrail to the back deck, putting windows in a top garage panel, and continuing hardwood floors into bedrooms.
The couple’s lawsuit claimed the Marrs’ companies worked on a house for them in 2022, only to realize later it had multiple problems, including a “critical safety issue” with the home’s deck. The plaintiffs also later learned their septic system was installed incorrectly and had to hire a company to diagnose and repair that problem.
