How to Prepare Your Bathroom for a Glass Shower Installation
Getting a new glass shower installed by Glass Doctor is an exciting step towards enhancing your home! To ensure a smooth and efficient installation process, prepare your bathroom and home.
Prep for Success:
- Clean Workspace: Clutter-free surfaces give your service professional a secure, blank slate for tools and other materials.
- Clear the Room: If possible, move any fragile items or valuables away from the bathroom to minimize the risk of accidents during installation.
- Accessibility Check: Ensure that the plumbing valves and pipes behind the shower area are easily accessible before work begins.
Installation Day:
- Provide a Path: Provide clear access to the bathroom and work area. Move any furniture or obstacles that might hinder the service professionals' movement with glass panels.
- Park with Care: If possible, park your car in a way that allows optimal access for the Glass Doctor service vehicle.
- Be Present: While not mandatory, it's helpful to be present during the installation. When scheduling your custom install, your Glass Doctor specialist will let you know approximately how long it will take to install your particular enclosure. Feel free to ask questions, clarify any details, and ensure the final placement meets your expectations.
Tips to Keep Top of Mind:
- Have a Pet Plan: If you have pets, consider having them secured in another part of the home during the installation process. It minimizes distractions and ensures their safety.
- Ask Questions: Don't hesitate to ask the Glass Doctor specialist any questions you may have about the installation process or glass maintenance.
How to Properly Care for Your New Shower Glass
The secret to a new bathroom glass feature that maintains its sparkle and functionality? A solid maintenance plan. Follow best practices for cleaning and maintaining your glass shower doors and enclosures.
After Every Shower:
- Squeegee Away Excess Water: The golden rule is to use a high-quality squeegee to remove excess water droplets from the glass surface after each shower to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
Weekly Cleaning:
- DIY Cleaning Solution: Mix equal parts white vinegar and warm water in a spray bottle. This natural solution is a powerful yet gentle cleaner for glass.
- Microfiber Magic: Use a soft, non-abrasive microfiber cloth to wipe down the entire glass surface with your DIY cleaning solution.
- Don't Forget the Hardware: Clean the shower door tracks, handles, and hinges with a damp cloth to remove soap scum and grime buildup.
The Deep Clean:
- Tackle Tough Stains: For stubborn water spots or mineral deposits, create a paste with baking soda and water. Apply the paste to the affected areas, leave it on for 15 minutes, and scrub gently with a non-abrasive sponge before rinsing thoroughly.
What to Avoid:
- Harsh Chemicals: Stay away from harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive sponges, or scouring pads which can damage the glass surface and leave behind unsightly scratches.
- Ammonia-Based Products: Avoid ammonia-based cleaners, as they can dull the finish of the glass over time.
- Letting Water Dry: Don’t put off drying your glass surfaces after every use. Consistent squeegeeing and cleaning will prevent mineral buildup and keep your glass sparkling clear.
