My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Any special window protection?

7 years ago
Hi. That’s a nice looking shower! How does the window frame get protected from rot due to the moisture and water in the shower? Thank you :)

    Thanks! The window is fiberglass, so it does not rot like wood. It does not need any special protection for use in the shower, although the glass does need to be tempered for safety.
