Builders Association of the Twin Cities Remodelers to partner with 2nd annual remodeling expo
Mid-America Remodeling & Design Expo enables homeowners to shop for contractors and materials all under one roof The Builders Association of the Twin Cities Remodelers (BATC Remodelers) has announced that it is partnering with producers of this year’s Mid-America Remodeling & Design Expo (www.101expos.com) to expand homeowners’ access to qualified remodelers in the Twin Cities area. The expo, to be held November 10-11 at the Minneapolis Convention Center, is the first of its kind to restrict exhibit space and informational seminars to members of the home remodeling and interior design industries. “This partnership makes sense because it enables homeowners who are planning remodeling projects to meet one-on-one with remodeling contractors who will complete the work properly and in accordance with our organization’s best building practices,” says BATC Remodelers President Marlene Killa. “We are proud to have this expo associated with an organization recognized for its integrity and the caliber of its members,” added Robin Kocina, president of Mid-America Events & Expos, producers of the Mid-America Remodeling & Design Expo. “In addition to exhibiting, BATC Remodeler members will conduct several informational seminars to help homeowners understand various remodeling issues and processes, including at least one seminar on environmentally-friendly remodeling tips. Homeowners will also find experts such as lighting and flooring suppliers, and design professionals, who can help put the finishing touches on their projects. “If you are planning or working on a home improvement project, this expo will allow you to spend quality time meeting with reputable businesses to discuss your specific needs, and comparing their services and products,” Kocina explains. “You won’t find someone offering to clean your jewelry, or check your spinal alignment at this show,” she says. “What you will find are highly qualified people who can help you remodel your bathroom or kitchen, or give you other ideas for updating and re-designing your home and making it more livable.” For additional information about this expo, visit www.101expos.com or call 612-798-7256.
