Quick-Step Featured On "Fix It Finish It" - Garage To Dining Room Transformation
Dallas, TX – April 23, 2015 – Quick-Step, the style, design, and innovation leader in laminate flooring, was recently featured in a “garage-to-dining-room-transformation” episode of Antonio Sabato Jr.’s new television series Fix It Finish It.
Quick-Step’s Flint Oak from the top-selling Reclaimé Collection was selected by the show’s interior designer for a project that converted a young family’s garage into a beautiful dining room.
And Baby Makes Four
Maggie and Klein Maetschke were expecting their second child. Their toddler Harrison occupied the nursery, but he would soon need to move into the dining room, which they would turn into a bedroom, to make way for his new baby brother. This left the Maetschkes in need of a new dining room — and the garage was the only underutilized space in their small 2 bedroom ranch style home.
Total Transformation – In Just One Day!
DIY expert Antonio Sabato Jr. and his crew teamed up with interior designer Nicki Huggins to take on the unique challenge of converting the garage into a fully-functional dining room. Nicki selected Quick-Step’s Flint Oak from the Reclaimé Collection to serve as the design foundation upon which they would create a beautiful new dining room.
With the show’s aggressive one-day-room-transformation deadline, Quick- Step was the perfect flooring choice — a floor with enduring beauty, but quick and easy installation! Quick-Step floors are easy to install, because they feature the patented Uniclic glueless installation locking system. Quick-Step planks simply click together to form a lasting connection. The team laid the entire floor in just hours.
“I Love This Flooring!”
“I love this flooring!” said Nicki Huggins, the professional interior designer spearheading all design elements of the room’s transformation. “It’s rustic … It’s a dark wood design… It makes all of the whites pop off of it.”
Nicki used Flint Oak from Quick-Step’s Reclaimé Collection as the design foundation of the room. The rich, character look of Flint Oak’s rustic planks are reminiscent of vintage wood gracefully weathered by time and the elements.
Reclaimed wood is a very hot trend in high-end hardwood flooring today and with Quick-Step’s high quality laminate planks, homeowners can bring the style of reclaimed wood into their home at an affordable price.
Nicki’s color choice for the floor was again on par with today’s hottest trends in home decorating. Flint Oak brought a rich, dark chocolate brown infused with grey undertones to the room’s design. The expansively wide and extra-long size of each Flint Oak plank (7 ½” x 54”) is also very on-trend. Each Flint Oak plank features authentic surface texture as well as effective shade variation for further interest and beauty.
