Why You Should Install a Glass Shower and Bath Enclosure

A bath or shower enclosure made of glass has numerous benefits. Technology's evolution makes this type of glass easy to find. The material can obscure sight and give you privacy as you shower or bath.

Professionals can also help to install and design the glass enclosure to give your bathroom a luxurious and modern look. Glasses and mirrors in your bathroom also add an edge to its style. Below are five benefits that may inspire you to want a glass enclosure in your bathroom.

1. Easy to Clean

Glass enclosures are easy to clean with the help of a squeegee to dry out the glass once you take a shower. The dry glass enclosure ensures mildew and mold are less able to grow in a damp environment. 

A glass enclosure in your bathroom can raise the hygiene levels in your home. Clean glass is attractive and makes your bathroom look and feel good. It is also easy to wash, clean, and dry off a glass surface daily as opposed to a shower curtain.

2. Keeps the Floors Dry

Unlike shower curtains, a glass enclosure ensures water drops within the floor of your tub or shower. The rest of the bathroom remains dry and safe to walk on. Wet bathroom floors are dangerous as they easily cause falls.

You can fit glass enclosures to the size of your bathroom. With a glass fitting professional, the worry of perfectly fitting a glass bathroom enclosure reduces. A professional shower and tub enclosure designer quickly solves the problem and customizes an enclosure to suit your budget.

3. Safety Features

Glass enclosures for bathrooms have several safety features. The glass used does not break easily as it is tempered glass. The probability of the tempered glass breaking is lower than the normal type of glass used on panes, making your bath or tub enclosure safer . 

Once a glass enclosure is installed for your bath or tub area with the right materials, it is safer than any shower curtain. It is also an added advantage that the glass used in bathroom enclosures is designed so that if it does break, it breaks into pieces that are not harmful compared to normal glass.

4. Customize as Desired

You can customize glass enclosures to suit your desires. The glass can be designed to enhance your bathroom's appearance, improve its safety, and fit into your budget. The customization also gives you a unique and personalized feel for your bathroom area.

You can customize the tub or shower enclosure to make the bathroom area accessible and attractive. A glass enclosure can also make the shower or tub more easily accessible to all people. Those with mobility challenges like children and the elderly can enter more easily since there is no need to have raised partitions to hold a curtain in place.

5. Give an Illusion of Air and Size

Glass tubs and shower enclosures give your bathroom a fresh look. The tub or shower is well aerated because it does not retain water once dried, as a shower curtain would. Glass offers better utilization of space for all bathroom sizes.

A bathroom area separated by glass can also appear bigger. The lack of shower curtains that completely block an area from view makes the bathroom appear bigger and more spacious. Mirrors in your bathroom will also add to the illusion of space. Using glass to partition your bathroom serves the purpose of aesthetics and practical needs in your house.
