Frameless Shower Enclosures — Travis County
Frameless Shower Enclosures in North Austin.
We take frameless shower work throughout North Austin — heavier glass, low-iron options and the tighter access that comes with condos and infill builds.
Austin specifics
How we do this job in Austin.
North Austin remodels tend to ask more of the glass: taller panels, notched cuts around benches and niches, and steam enclosures that run to the ceiling with a transom. Those are 1/2" jobs with reinforced hardware, and they have to be templated rather than tape-measured.
Low-iron glass comes up more here than anywhere else we work. Standard clear glass carries a slight green edge that shows against white marble and pale tile; low-iron removes it. On a dark tile it is money you do not need to spend, and we will tell you that.
Access matters on Austin jobs — stairwells, elevators, alley parking. We plan the panel sizes around how the glass actually gets into the room, which is one of the reasons we template before fabricating instead of after.

4.9
Average rating from 48 verified Georgetown Glass & Door customers
“The Glass and Door Company did an amazing job on our frameless shower. From the measurement to the install, everything was on time and the crew was respectful of our home. The finished product looks incredible.”
“We had a foggy window that two other companies wanted to replace entirely. These guys replaced just the glass unit for a fraction of the price and it looks brand new.”
“Great local company. They fabricated custom mirrors for our bathroom remodel and the quality of the edge work is better than anything we found at the big box stores.”

Common questions
Frameless Shower Enclosures in Austin — questions
The questions Austin customers ask us most about this job.
Do you install steam shower enclosures in Austin?+
Yes. Steam enclosures need a full-height panel, a transom or vent at the top and a tight seal package. We build them in 1/2" glass with hardware rated for the extra weight.
Is low-iron glass worth it for an Austin bathroom?+
It is if your tile is white, pale marble or light stone, where the faint green cast of standard clear glass is visible at the edges. Against dark tile the difference is hard to see and we usually recommend saving the money.
What glass thickness do you use for Austin frameless showers?+
We install 3/8" and 1/2" tempered safety glass. 3/8" covers most Austin door-and-panel openings; 1/2" is worth it on tall panels or wide doors where you want the glass to feel dead solid. Both are fully tempered and both are cut to your measured opening.
How do I keep hard water spots off shower glass in Austin?+
Travis County water is hard, so mineral spotting is the main enemy of clear glass. Squeegee after each shower and skip abrasive pads and ammonia cleaners. We also offer a factory-applied protective coating that seals the surface so minerals rinse away instead of etching in.
How soon can you measure in Austin?+
North Austin and surrounding areas, so Austin measures are usually booked within a couple of business days. Glass is cut and tempered to your exact opening after that measure, with installation typically 10 to 14 business days later.
Is the estimate for frameless shower enclosures in Austin free?+
Yes. Measurements and written estimates are free everywhere we work, including Austin and the rest of Travis County. You get one firm number after the measure, not a range that moves at install.
Do you use your own crew in Austin?+
Always. We are a family-owned, fully insured Georgetown glass shop and the crew that measures your Austin job is the crew that installs it — we never subcontract the work.
