Frequently asked questions.

How long will it take to get my shower or windows installed?

Based on current distribution demands throughout the United States on construction materials it can now take up to 4 to 6 weeks for varies types of glass and hardware to arrive for installation depending on everything from specialty colors to designs to patterns and thickness that may require glass to be special ordered outside of standard sizing and styles. Additionally, some more popular hardware styles and colors can affect dates due to materials in high or low demand. We try to locate vendors in our area that can obtain materials quicker but currently it is become a challenge due to their supply chains also being disrupted. Most projects can still be completed within 10`14 business days of an approved order, but others may take longer.

Can you install a shower that we bought online or from a hardware store?

We will contract out to a homeowner to install their own shower enclosure that they have purchased.

We are contracting to only provide the professional installers to do your work that day. We cannot warranty your shower for materials and assume no liability for the product. The homeowner assumes all risk. If your kit is missing parts or does not fit into the opening because of wall or shower conditions or if glass or hardware are damaged or warped and the shower is not able to be installed, you would still be responsible for paying the labor rate of the installers for that day.

How do I clean the glass in my shower to keep it from getting spots or a haze?

First you should note that glass needs to dry so air is important. A squeegee will help with removing excess water from a wet shower panel or door after a shower.  Also, you can use a cleaner such as comet or Ajax to clean the panels once every 3-4 months.  An application of automotive RainX will also keep water spots from developing.  Use a high quality clear glass cleaner do not use anything that has a BLUE liquid to clean your glass. That type of cleaner can get into the silicone seals

Yes, the seals used to create a barrier for the water at the open points of your door and panels can be removed for cleaning and then reinstalled. They simply snap off and, on the door, and panel.

 How long do I have to wait to use my shower once you have finished the installation?
