Yikes! Glass quotes for shower enclosure
Comments (31)I have a frameless glass by-pass door for my 60" wide shower. Well, there is an outer frame that holds the two sliding pieces of glass, but the glass itself has no frame. I just measured it and it's a mere 3/16" thick. It's been in daily operation for 9 years. We bought the shower door kit from a local independent home improvement store (later bought out by HD). My BinL was carrying one of the doors in from the garage when there was a loud boom. He swears the glass didn't flex and he didn't bump into anything. Fortunately he wasn't hurt, but I found pieces of glass for years after. The store replaced everything and no problems since....See MoreFrameless Glass Shower Door Swing Dilemma - Please Look and Help
Comments (38)with 3 young boys I really wanted a urinal in my house, space doesn't allow it and my husband thinks it's a terrible idea. When I dream about installing one I think of all the clean up it would save. Though my boys are being trained to clean up after themselves - I think my 89 yr old is pretty good at it but my 5 yr old and training 2 yr old are not nearly as efficient as necessary. I am one woman who thinks it's a great idea! Rachel...See MoreRestarting tub-to-shower conversion, questions about glass enclosure
Comments (9)Thanks for the input. I just measured my master shower door and it's 28.5". I think I will plan for a 26" door, swinging inward and outward. I like the idea of the pony wall being a little bit longer and just leaving the 26" space for the future door. My contractor is very thorough and will be sure to block for a door and grab bar to be installed in future if desired. Definately will put the controls in the pony wall like we did in master. The depth of the room right now is 64" from the current finished shower tile to the wall. So without encroaching on the 30" space for the toilet, we could get a 34" depth shower. That's still pretty small, but don't see a way to make it deeper without expanding the scope and $$ by stealing space from adjacent attic. If money were no object we would look into doing that. I'll ask the contractor about it, but I don't think budget will allow....See MoreHelp with Sunroom Enclosure and Railing Dilemma
Comments (17)A familiar list! We just finished an overhead sewer, and driveway widening had to happen early on to allow for dumpster delivery/egress of other large vehicles. We also moved our old servant stairs. They were incredibly steep and narrow, and caused our kitchen to be divided into four parts. We shifted them to a corner of the house, and shuffled flour plans from basement to the third floor to accommodate them. I wouldn’t recommend something that drastic unless it gave you dramatically new options, but for us the third floor with its old servants’ kitchen and three small bedrooms was a terrible use of space, and it made sense to turn the kitchen from four small spaces (butler’s pantry, cooking area, pantry area, breakfast area) that circled a staircase into a cohesive kitchen that is designed for the family to cook in versus a servant’s domain the family wouldn’t have ventured into. At least, I hope it will be 🤞 We demo’ed in July and I’m still probably at least six months away from a functional kitchen again. Are you living in the house through your updates?...See MoreDiana Bier Interiors, LLC
