Made to measure shower screen for homes and businesses in Crieff
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.
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.
Screens should be measured after tiling is finished, not from plans. Walls are often out of plumb and floors fall towards the drain, and the glass is made to follow those real angles. Measuring early is a common cause of uneven gaps and leaks.
Glass-to-wall and glass-to-glass hinges suit most doors, and pivot hinges let a door swing from a point set in from the edge. Doors normally open outwards, so check the swing clears the toilet, basin and bathroom door before choosing a layout.
What's included
- Hinges, clamps, channels or bracing bars in your finish

About Crieff for this job
- Postcodes covered
- PH7 and the surrounding area, including Perth, Alloa and Stirling
- Coast
- Crieff is well inland, around 32 km from the nearest coast, so salt exposure is not usually a factor.
- Daylight and sun
- In Crieff the midwinter sun reaches about 10° above the horizon at noon, with roughly 6.6 hours of daylight, rising to about 57° and 17.4 hours in midsummer. Bathrooms with small or north-facing windows benefit from clear or low-iron glass that does not block the daylight available. Where a window looks onto the shower, a satin band or obscure glass gives privacy without making the room feel darker.
- Access and setting
- Older rural homes often have uneven walls, sloping ceilings and timber floors that flex, all of which shape the screen design. Hard water is common in some areas, so an easy-clean coating and regular squeegeeing help keep the glass clear.
- Rules in Scotland
- Section 4 (Safety) of the Scottish Technical Handbooks covers glazing that people could collide with, such as glass in and beside doors and low-level glazing, where safety glass is needed.

Shower Screens in Crieff: questions
Will a frameless shower screen leak?
A well-designed frameless screen contains spray effectively, but it is not completely watertight like a sealed enclosure. Leaks are prevented by the right panel length, a properly falling floor or level tray, drip and sweep seals on doors, and neat silicone on fixed edges. Shower head position matters too, so we look at it during the survey.
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.
How do I stop limescale building up on shower glass?
The simplest habit is to squeegee the glass after every shower so water does not dry on it. Clean weekly with a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth, and rinse well. Avoid scouring pads, powders and strong descalers, which can scratch coatings, dull hinge finishes and break down silicone seals.
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.
