Clean Lines Without Leaks or Mold Buildup

Custom glass shower and enclosure installations in Gainesville, Florida

When your shower curtain clings to you while you rinse off, or your old framed enclosure has mold in the tracks no matter how often you scrub, a custom glass installation gives you a cleaner, more open space that drains and dries properly. In Gainesville, Done W Right Painting & Renovation installs frameless and semi-frameless glass enclosures that integrate with your tile and waterproofing systems. You get a shower that feels larger, stays cleaner, and does not trap moisture where it should not go.

This service includes precision measurements, custom glass fabrication, and installation alongside tile and waterproofing during new construction or remodeling. The team works with both contemporary designs and historic homes in Gainesville where original plaster and trim must remain undisturbed. Glass is installed with hardware that holds alignment over time, so doors swing smoothly and seals stay tight without adjustment.

If you are planning a bathroom renovation or upgrading an existing shower in Gainesville, reach out to discuss glass options and layout compatibility.

How custom glass fits into your bathroom layout

The process begins with precise measurements of your shower or tub area after tile is installed and walls are finished. In Gainesville homes with settled floors or out-of-plumb walls, Done W Right Painting & Renovation accounts for those variations during fabrication so the glass fits cleanly without gaps. Installation happens after tile and grout are cured, and all waterproofing is complete and inspected.

Once the glass is installed, you will notice water stays inside the shower, doors close flush without forcing, and there are no metal tracks where soap scum and mold collect. Glass panels are secured with stainless steel or brushed nickel hardware that resists corrosion in humid conditions. Seals along the bottom edge direct water toward the drain instead of onto the floor.

Frameless designs work well in modern bathrooms, while semi-frameless options suit homes where a bit of structure complements existing finishes. Both styles are installed with durability and safety in mind, using tempered glass that meets building code requirements. The installation integrates seamlessly with your tile layout, so grout lines and wall transitions stay clean and consistent.

Most homeowners want to know how glass is measured for uneven walls, what happens if a panel breaks, and whether frameless designs are harder to keep clean. These are a few of the practical concerns that come up before a glass enclosure installation begins.

What homeowners usually ask about glass enclosures

How do you measure for glass when walls are not perfectly straight?
Done W Right Painting & Renovation takes measurements after tile is installed and accounts for variations in wall plumb and floor level. Custom fabrication ensures the glass fits cleanly even if walls are slightly out of square, which is common in older Gainesville homes.
What happens if a glass panel gets cracked or broken?
Tempered glass is designed to resist impact, but if a panel does break, it shatters into small, blunt pieces instead of sharp shards. Replacement panels can be ordered and installed without removing the entire enclosure.
Are frameless enclosures harder to clean than framed ones?
Frameless enclosures are actually easier to clean because there are no metal tracks or rubber seals where soap scum and mold collect. You wipe down smooth glass and minimal hardware instead of scrubbing tight corners and crevices.
Can glass enclosures be installed in historic bathrooms?
Yes, Done W Right Painting & Renovation installs glass enclosures in historic Gainesville homes without disturbing original plaster, trim, or tile. Careful planning ensures the hardware attaches securely without damaging period details.
How long does a glass enclosure installation take?
After tile and waterproofing are complete, most glass installations take one day. Measurements are taken first, glass is fabricated off-site, and installation happens once all other bathroom finishes are in place.

If your current shower feels cramped, leaks onto the floor, or has mold buildup in the tracks, Done W Right Painting & Renovation can walk you through custom glass options that fit your bathroom layout and integrate cleanly with tile and waterproofing.
