Frameless showers are just that – frameless. They are not fish tanks, and leaks do happen. This is why we offer a lifetime craftsmanship warranty for when there are leaks where there shouldn’t be. Small leaks around the door or between gaps in the glass panels (e.g. door and sidelite) are to be expected.
Our technicians are trained to install glass. We cannot take on the liability of them working on something outside the scope of our business, nor can we insure them. This also applies to painting, carpentry, and tile work.
Our warranty does not cover breakage of glass. It is for hardware and craftsmanship.
Frameless glass is a type of glass installation where the glass panels are supported by minimal hardware and do not have the bulky metal framing around the edges. This creates a sleek, modern, and unobstructed view.
Lead times change based on the manufacturer we’re ordering the product from. They also vary from season to season.
We offer a variety of frameless glass solutions, including:
Yes, we offer custom measurements and designs to ensure a perfect fit for your space. Whether it’s a unique shower enclosure, a custom railing, or a specific architectural feature, we can tailor the glass to your needs.
Frameless glass is relatively low-maintenance. Regular cleaning with a non-abrasive cleaner and a microfiber cloth will keep the glass looking clear. For shower doors, we recommend using a squeegee after each use to minimize water spots. Periodic checks of the hardware for tightness and functionality are also advisable.
We can help guide you in choosing the right type of glass based on your needs. For instance, clear glass is great for visibility, frosted glass offers privacy, and tinted glass can reduce glare. For wet areas like showers, water-repellent coatings can be added to help with maintenance.
The cost varies depending on factors like the size of the project, the type of glass, and the complexity of installation. We offer free consultations to provide a precise quote based on your requirements.
Glass is made up of iron-oxide which naturally has a green hue, so “clear” glass typically gives off a greenish color. This becomes more apparent with lighter colored tile or paint and is most obvious along the edges of the glass. Starphire or Ultra Clear/Low Iron glass goes through a process of removing most of the iron from the glass reducing the green appearance. The thicker the piece of glass, the darker this color usually appears.
