1. Say Goodbye to the Old: Safe & Clean Removal
Before we can install your new frameless shower enclosure, we’ll carefully remove your existing unit.
- Our expert team gently detaches the old door to avoid damage to surrounding tile.
- We’ll expose holes from the previous installation—don’t worry, we’ll take care of those.
- You might see some discoloration under where the metal tracks used to be, which is totally normal.
Pro Tip: Many homeowners simply clean the area thoroughly and appreciate that our frameless designs minimize metal going forward!
2. Laser Templating for a Perfect Fit
Once the old shower is removed, it’s time for precision.
- We laser template the space to capture every curve, angle, and contour.
- This step ensures your new completely frameless shower glass fits like a glove—no need for bulky tracks or metal channels.
This part of the process is what sets Alluring Glass apart. We don’t believe in cookie-cutter installations. We tailor every piece of glass to your unique shower layout.
3. Preparing the Space
After templating, we prepare the area for installation:
- Any exposed holes from the old unit are filled with waterproof silicone.
- If we notice tile damage during removal, we pause the project and let you know immediately.
- Need tile repair? We’ve got you covered with trusted referral partners who specialize in bathroom tile.
This transparency keeps you in the loop and your project on track.
4. Fabrication of Custom Frameless Glass
With the template in hand, your new shower glass is custom-fabricated to fit your space with precision.
- We ensure top-tier quality glass, tailored for strength, safety, and style.
- During this time, you can get excited knowing you’re about to level up your bathroom in a big way.
5. Installation Day: Sleek, Seamless, Stunning
Once your custom glass is ready, we come back to complete the transformation:
- We install the glass panels using premium hardware—no bulky frames or metal tracks.
