Water leak around bench?

7 years ago

I love the look of the glass fitting around the bench but my builder is adamant that water will leak out of it and pool on the floor...did you use any special seal around the edges to prevent this?

Thank you for your question! We have done this sort of design several times and haven't experienced issues with leaks. We use a great glass company who accurately templates and installs these types of surrounds with the appropriate materials. Hope this helps!

Love the look of the shower. The Herringbone polish marble tile gives it a clean, yet unique look.

Will definitely use this for our shower ideabook
