Lancashire: walk in shower screen
The price depends mainly on panel sizes, the number of panels, glass thickness, the hinge and bracing hardware, and any cut-outs for sloping ceilings, trays or skirting. Low-iron or satin glass, an easy-clean coating and special finishes add cost. See the guide prices for typical ranges.
Because toughened glass cannot be cut or drilled after toughening, hinge holes, clamp positions and notches around trays or skirting are formed before the glass goes into the furnace. A panel that does not fit has to be remade, so accurate templating matters.
An easy-clean coating is a water-repellent layer bonded to the glass that helps water run off and reduces limescale and soap marks. It does not stop cleaning altogether, and how long it lasts depends on following the care instructions and avoiding abrasive products.
Glass thickness is usually 8mm or 10mm for frameless work. 8mm suits most doors and enclosures, while 10mm is commonly used for walk-in and wet room panels that stand with little support and need to stay rigid when knocked or leaned on.

What applies in Lancashire
Approved Document K requires safety glass in critical locations in England: glazing in doors and in side panels within 300 mm of a door, up to 1500 mm above floor level, and any glazing in walls or partitions up to 800 mm above floor level.
Lancashire has its own coastline, so for homes and businesses near the sea, salt air and wind-driven rain are part of the brief. Shower glass sits indoors, so salt air has little effect on it, but coastal homes can have damp, humid air that slows drying. Good bathroom ventilation and a quick squeegee after use help prevent mould on the silicone and marks on the hardware.
Flats often mean carrying large panels up stairs or in small lifts, so panel sizes may need splitting. Building rules on working hours and noise, and bathrooms above other homes, make careful sealing and protection of finishes especially important.

Choosing your shower screens
Satin or tinted glass
Satin bands, full satin panels or grey and bronze tints that add privacy or style while still letting light into the shower.
Hinged door enclosure
A glass door on wall or glass hinges with fixed side panels, suiting alcoves, corners and trays where a fully enclosed shower is wanted.
Low-iron glass
Glass with less iron, which removes the green edge tint of standard glass and keeps tiles and stone looking their true colour.
Easy-clean coating
A water-repellent coating bonded to the glass that helps water bead and run off, reducing limescale and the time spent cleaning.
Shower Screens in Lancashire: questions
What affects the cost of a frameless shower screen?
The main cost drivers are the number and size of panels, glass thickness, the type of hinges, clamps and bracing, and any shaped cuts for sloping ceilings or trays. An easy-clean coating, low-iron or satin glass and special hardware finishes add cost. See the guide prices for typical ranges, and your written quote fixes the price.
Is an easy-clean coating on shower glass worth having?
An easy-clean coating makes water bead and run off, so limescale and soap marks build up more slowly and wiping takes less effort. It is most useful in hard-water areas. It does not replace cleaning, and its life depends on using non-abrasive products, so we give you the care instructions with the screen.
When should my shower screen be measured?
Your screen should be measured once the walls are tiled and the tray or wet room floor is finished. The glass is made to follow the exact angles of the finished surfaces, and tiles, adhesive and trims all change the dimensions. If you are mid-renovation, we can advise on fixing positions and backing before tiling starts.
Why have a shower screen made to measure instead of buying one?
A made-to-measure screen fits the space exactly, which matters where walls are out of plumb, ceilings slope, trays are non-standard or the opening is an unusual width. Off-the-shelf enclosures rely on adjustment profiles that can leave wide gaps or visible frames. Bespoke glass follows the real shape of the room and keeps sealant lines neat.
