Welcome to BathandKitchenPro.com.

This Web site complements Bath & Kitchen Pro, a BNP Media publication introduced in 2008 that reaches a powerful audience of 50,000+ bath-and-kitchen installers, distributors with showrooms and green designers in plumbing, tile and countertops and related fields. Unlike other magazines that focus purely on design, Bath & Kitchen Pro will provide information on installation and purchasing as well as design trends.

Bath & Kitchen Pro will have two strategically timed issues in 2009: April, with bonus distribution at K/BIS May 1-3 in Atlanta, and September, with bonus distribution at the Remodeling Show Oct. 28 - 30 in Indianapolis.

To stay up-to-date between issues, please visit BathandKitchenPro.com often for industry news, product news and photos, and a blog written by myself and other Bath & Kitchen Pro staff members.

And, if you haven't already done so, make sure that you subscribe to our twice-monthly e-newsletter, Bath & Kitchen Pro e-News. Formerly known as Bath & Kitchen e-News, we now have more than 17,000 opt-in subscribers. To sign up for Bath & Kitchen Pro e-News, click on the icon on this page.

I'd like to hear from you, whether you are a reader or an advertiser. Please contact me via e-mail at miodonskib@bnpmedia.com or call 630-694-4007. Advertisers can click on the link at the top of the home page for rates, specs, deadlines and additional information.
