Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of a custom frameless glass shower enclosure in Los Angeles typically ranges from $900 to $3,500+, depending on the size, glass thickness, hardware finish, and number of panels. A standard single fixed panel with a door starts around $800–$1,500. Walk-in configurations and larger multi-panel enclosures run $1,800–$3,500. We provide free on-site quotes with exact pricing before any work begins.

Frameless shower enclosures use thick tempered glass (3/8″ or 1/2″) with minimal hardware — no metal frame around the glass panels. This creates a clean, open look and is easier to keep clean since there are no frame channels for mold or soap scum. Semi-frameless enclosures have a partial metal frame around the perimeter with frameless door panels — slightly more affordable, less sleek. Fully framed enclosures use aluminum channels around all edges — the most budget-friendly option but the least modern in appearance.

The installation itself takes 3 to 5 hours for a standard frameless shower enclosure. However, the full process from consultation to completed installation is typically 1–2 weeks: we measure your space, custom-fabricate the glass panels, and schedule installation once everything is ready. We do not use pre-cut stock glass — every panel is cut to your exact dimensions.

Yes. In many cases we can replace a single cracked, broken, or etched glass panel without replacing the entire enclosure. We measure the existing frame or hardware, fabricate a matching panel, and install it. This is significantly more cost-effective than a full replacement. Send us a photo and the dimensions of the damaged panel and we can provide a quote quickly.

For frameless shower enclosures, we recommend 3/8″ (10mm) or 1/2″ (12mm) tempered safety glass. 3/8″ is the industry standard and works well for most residential applications — strong, clean-looking, and more affordable. 1/2″ glass is heavier and feels more substantial, making it ideal for larger panels and pivot doors. Both options meet California safety codes and are fully tempered, meaning they break into small, blunt fragments if shattered.
