Tired of your cramped, dark, dingy shower? A custom glass shower enclosure can instantly make your bathroom feel light, airy, and spacious. Here’s why you should consider a custom shower enclosure in your bathroom renovation and how you can make your new shower functional and beautiful for you and your space.
Benefits of Custom Glass Shower Enclosures
A custom glass shower enclosure is an easy way to improve the beauty and functionality of your bathroom.
Enhanced Functionality
Glass Source can design and fabricate a glass shower enclosure to fit any space. We have designed large enclosures that are easy to access, even when homeowners have mobility challenges. We’ve also designed shower enclosures that follow the pitch of a roof, tucking a shower into a space that would otherwise go to waste. We can design and install an enclosure that will fit your specific needs and preferences, whatever they are.
Improved Hygiene
Compared to shower curtains or grouted tile, glass is easier to clean and more resistant to mold and mildew. Cleaning your glass shower enclosure takes less time and makes a bigger visual impact than scrubbing tile or disinfecting your shower curtain. Plus, nothing shines like freshly cleaned glass. So, not only is it easier to clean, you may be inspired to give your shower enclosure a quick wipe down more often to maintain that beautiful look.
Aesthetic Appeal & Increased Home Value
Shower curtains just can’t compete with the look of a custom glass shower enclosure. Enclosures provide custom designs for a tailored look that enhance your bathroom’s overall décor. What’s more, a custom design can boost your home’s market value when it is time to sell.
Designing Your Custom Glass Shower Enclosure
Now for the fun part! Your glass shower enclosure integrates seamlessly with your bathroom design, whether you are after a crisp, modern look or a rustic feel.
Choose Your Glass Type
We can fabricate your custom glass shower enclosure in a wide range of glass types. Some homeowners prefer clear glass for a clean look that makes their bathrooms appear larger. Others opt for the privacy of frosted glass. Textured glass or tinted glass offer decorative touches, too. Glass Source can add protective coatings to your glass to prevent water spots, soap scum, and mineral deposits, too.
Consider Going Frameless
Frameless shower enclosures are sleek, easy to clean, and increase the natural light in your shower and bathroom. With fewer pieces of hardware and no bulky frame, there are fewer places for soap scum and grime to accumulate.
Customize Your Hardware
Your shower enclosure’s hardware is another area where you can customize the look of your bathroom. There are endless combinations of finishes and styles that can help you achieve the look you’re aiming for, from chrome to matte black and simple bars to ornate handles.
Add Finishing Touches
Your custom shower enclosure can incorporate built-in features that make your shower experience easier and more enjoyable. It is possible to build shelving and niches into your glass shower enclosure to boost storage space. You may also consider adding a built-in bench or steam for a spa-like experience. The design is only limited by your imagination!
