First, decide what should stay
Tell us whether you are keeping the existing tub, shower base, tile and fixtures, or planning a wider bathroom renovation. Replacing a curtain is not automatically a complete remodel. It begins with reviewing the finished opening, suitable fixing locations and the space around the shower.
Send one photo of the whole bathroom and one straight-on photo of the opening. Include the curtain rail, wall edges, showerhead and any nearby vanity or toilet. Visible damage or old fixing holes should be included so the proposal can identify any preparation work.
For a bathtub: door or glass screen?
A tub enclosure can use sliding glass doors where the tub and surrounding construction are compatible with the selected system. A glass bath screen keeps part of the entry open. These are different experiences: consider where you step in, how you reach the controls, and how the glass will be cleaned.
Do not assume every tub rim can accept any shower-door system. Share the tub brand or model if you know it, plus photos of the rim and surrounding walls. The support, mounting and hardware requirements need to be checked before a design is approved.
For a walk-in shower: open panel or closing door?
A fixed panel creates an open entry and keeps the glass arrangement simple. A door-and-panel enclosure provides a closing entrance. A hinged door needs room to move; a sliding system changes the usable entry width and the hardware arrangement.
If the main concern is water escaping, describe where it lands and show the showerhead position. Glass alone cannot correct unsuitable drainage, waterproofing or a poorly placed spray. The bathroom layout should be reviewed as a whole before the enclosure is ordered.
What affects the replacement quote?
- The opening dimensions, glass shape and number of panels.
- The chosen door system, glass specification and hardware finish.
- Removing an existing rail, frame or enclosure, if included.
- Any wall, tile or surface preparation, and who will complete it.
- Access, measurement visits, installation and agreed travel arrangements.
Ask for a clear included scope rather than comparing a glass-only price with a complete installation. Our shower glass cost guide explains the main price drivers. Horus confirms the final price after the project details and measurements are reviewed.
Choose the finish before fabrication
Explore glass and layout options and the hardware gallery. Bring a photo or sample of the faucet if you want a coordinated finish. Matching a finish name alone does not guarantee an identical color across manufacturers.
The online shower preview is a place to explain your idea. Exact dimensions, panel shapes, cutouts, support and fittings are confirmed for production separately.
A straightforward way to start
- Send photos, your town and state, and a short description of what you want to change.
- Horus reviews the request and discusses a suitable layout and measurement visit.
- Approve the final design, scope and price before custom fabrication.
- Coordinate the agreed installation and any required preparation work.
