Shower Enclosures Toronto

Are you planning to upgrade your shower area to something more sophisticated than a shower curtain? Remodel your bathroom with complete shower enclosure solutions from Academy Glass. With more than 40 years of providing designer shower solutions to our clients, we boast some of the best variations in style and sizes for any bathroom.

Shower stalls are highly functional. If you are not sure whether you should install an enclosure in your bathroom, here are some points to consider:

  • They Fit In Well with Contemporary Designs

Some homeowners are always on the hunt to make their abode more modern. When it comes to your bathroom specifically, traditional shower curtains and bathtubs can make the space look out of date. The answer: shower enclosures.

Glass shower enclosures give your home an elegant and luxurious look. This makes them an ideal addition since large bathtubs take up a lot of space and make the area look smaller. When installed in larger bathrooms, they can be added with built-in tubs or freestanding ones to vary the design.

  • They Make a Unique Style Statement

The wide variety of shower enclosures available at Academy Glass ensures that there is always a suitable option to fit your modern or contemporary bathroom design.

From clear glass to tinted or frosted, you can choose from a range of options to give your bathroom a unique look. Additionally, you may be able to customize the hardware, including the frame and handles, depending on your space.

To give your bathroom an ultra-chic look, choose a frameless glass shower enclosure with no visible framework. This makes any contemporary or modern bathroom look effortlessly minimalist.

  • They Are Suitable for Those with Mobility Issues

For household members with mobility issues, accessing tubs can result in slip-and-fall accidents. Glass shower enclosures, on the other hand, reduce chances of accidents as their built-in doors make it easier to access the shower area, as does their ultra-low step. Shower enclosures also often have seats and handrails, which further increases safety.

  • They Make Your Bathroom Look Open and Bright

It’s easy to make small bathrooms look even smaller. Shower curtains and opaque glass doors, for instance, will do the job. Clear glass shower enclosures, on the other hand, create the illusion of space and brightness.

  • There Is No Chance of Leakage

No one likes stepping into a wet bathroom. Watertight glass shower enclosures from Academy Glass keep water contained, meaning you won’t have to clean up every time you shower. This also reduces the chance of falls due to wet floors, especially for the elderly and children.

  • They Are Easy to Maintain

Our busy schedules mean water and soap marks can make our bathrooms look dirty and unhygienic. Shower doors also run the risk of breaking or getting scratched. Our glass shower enclosure doors, however, use tempered glass which is resistant to cracks and scratches. You can also choose a protective coating to prevent soap and water stains.

With our products you can rest assured knowing your glass shower enclosure will look as good as new for years. All you need to keep it shiny and clean is a microfibre cloth and a spritz of any commercial disinfectant.

  • They Make for a Hygienic Bath Area

Bacteria and other microorganisms thrive in the humidity and moisture of showers. Mould and mildew, for instance, can grow on the lower half of shower curtains. Apart from making your bathroom look unkempt, this can pose health risks when not looked after properly.

This can be avoided, however, with our glass shower enclosures. Unlike shower curtains, glass is non-porous which prevents mould and mildew growth. The surface is also much easier to clean, making it a suitable option for bathrooms.

Which Shower Enclosure to Install

Now that you know how shower enclosures can benefit your home, here are some factors to consider that will allow you to save time and streamline the process of choosing one.

  • Budget

Glass shower enclosures come at many price points. So, when choosing one for your Toronto home, think about how much you want to spend. 

Along with the price of the materials, you’ll also need to consider the cost of installation. (Labour rates depend on numerous factors, including the job’s location and complexity.) 

  • Space

Always choose an enclosure that fits the available floor space in your existing shower. That way you don’t have to relocate other fixtures which requires more time and money. 

  • Decor

There are many styles and designs of shower enclosures. For instance, you can pick different shapes and opacities of glass. The ideal one, however, will match your bathroom décor. 

At Academy Glass, we have a wide range of styles. Some of the popular ones are:

  • Frameless Solutions
  • Quadrant Enclosures
  • Walk-In Showers
  • Neo Angle Stalls
  • Pentagonal Enclosures

Why Should You Choose Us?

With more than four decades behind us, we know how to take care of your needs. Each glass product we offer is covered by Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) guidelines. In accordance with these, they are heat tempered to protect you from physical danger from broken glass.

Heat-tempered glass breaks into tiny pieces in case of accident and reduces the chances of physical harm. Untreated glass can break into shards and pose a danger to your health.

We believe in the safety of the customer. That is why we abide by the guidelines adopted by the International Building Code (IBC).

Besides glass enclosure products, we also provide installation, repair and maintenance services on an emergency basis.

Now you know why you can trust us with your shower installation!
