How much does a new frameless glass shower or slider door cost?

Great question. Our answer always starts with “it depends” and usually after a few minute conversation ends with a number between $1,200 and $3,500, but it largely depends on the size and type of shower you want to build.

Here are a few questions we will ask in our first conversation:

What are the dimensions of the shower and how high will the glass go? For a quick estimate, measurement accuracy within one inch is sufficient. You can share a photo, architectural plan, or hand-drawn scribble of the shower with the measurements noted via email or text. Regarding glass height, for steam showers the glass runs up to the ceiling, otherwise customers typically end the glass about a foot from the ceiling. If our estimate looks good to proceed working with us, we will schedule a time to come out for precise measurements.

What type of shower glass do you want to use in your shower? The most common request is for clear or low-iron shower glass. The size and quantity of glass panels will affect the price.

Do you want the 3/8” thick shower glass or the thicker 1/2” glass? For residential installations, 3/8” shower glass is almost always the choice. Our shower glass comes tempered and is stronger than you think. 1/2” is more commonly used in commercial applications.

Where is your shower glass door project located? We serve eastern Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Cape Cod and Islands.

Which color hardware do you want installed in your frameless shower glass enclosure? Most customers go with polished chrome, brushed nickel, matte black, or bronze hardware to match their shower hardware, but the choice is yours.

Which shower door hardware do you want to use? Most customers like to match the color of the hardware used in the rest of their bathroom. If you don’t have a strong preference, let us help you decide.

When do you want your shiny new shower glass installed? It takes about 2.5 weeks from order to install, but we can cut that time down to 10-12 days for certain types of glass orders.

Customer asked FAQs:

Is there a discount for multiple showers? Yes because we can install multiple showers in the same trip, saving us time and you money. Our material costs are the same and install still takes ~1-3 hours per shower depending on a number of variables we will discuss with you.

How soon can I use the shower after install? You can shower immediately after we finish, it is just glass. However, we add a bead of mildew resistant silicone around the edge of the panels to keep the water inside the shower area and it is a good idea to allow the silicone 18-24 hours to firm up before disturbing it with soapy water.

Do you have insurance? Yes.

How do you get such accurate measurements? We use a level and laser to account for walls that may not be perfectly plumb. When you measure to the nearest 1/16 of an inch, every 1/16” matters to the glass cutting machine. If you are home when we come out to measure we will be happy to show you.

What are the payment terms? Half of the quoted amount is due to place the order and the remaining balance is due on installation day. We accept cash, check, ACH, Zelle, credit cards and Venmo.
