Shower & Tub Enclosures

 Beauty & Functionality 


Bathrooms are no longer limited to plain, basic and boring functionality as they were in the past.  They can also be a beautiful and relaxing place in which you can allow your stress to melt away.  Shower and tub enclosures are one of the best investments a homeowner can make in their bathroom giving the opportuntiy for enjoyment now and increased resale value in the future.  According to Home & Garden magazine, "The bathroom is the new kitchen", any money spent there will bring a return when the decision is made to sell the home.  

The options available for shower and tub enclosures are numerous.  Choose between framed and frameless designs in either 1/4", 3/8" or 1/2" glass.  Options for glass include clear, obscure, patterned, etched or slumped designs in various shapes and colors.  Compliment any of these options with over a dozen different hardware finishes and you'll have your own unique statement that will combine both beauty and functionality.

 

  Framed

Depending on the design and size of your shower or bath, a framed enclosure may best suit your needs.  Framed units may be more water tight due to the close tolerances and flush joints.  The metal frame allows for the use of thinner 3/16" or 1/4" glass making this a less expensive option when choosing your shower or bath enclosure.   

Frameless 

Frameless encloures offer a more contemporary look to your shower by eliminating a majority of the metal framework around the glass.  Most frameless units utilize 3/8" or 1/2" glass and in many different configurations.  They are available with hinged or sliding entrances.  These structures can provide simple elegance or elaborate architectural appeal to a bathroom.  Please keep in mind that due to certain size limitations adjustments may be necessary in some instances.  Not every enclosure can be totally or even partially frameless.

 

Design

Simply Glass will come to your home and personally design an enclosure to meet your specific needs, or if you prefer we can use drawings and information you provide.   Custom building an enclosure means you can select from a wide variety of glass options as well as hardware types and finishes to compliment your bath and make it your very own.  Make your bath more than just a bath, make it your own private retreat.
