New thinner glass blocks offer increased space inside a shower, more design options, decreased cost and ease of installation over the traditional "thicker" blocks. This recently introduced line of glass blocks is available in the traditional obscure look, see-through pattern for better views of tile work in a shower or colored or frosted selections.

Cleveland, Ohio (PRWEB) December 26, 2012

Wavy and clear glass blocks are available to provide either privacy or a clear view of sleek design elements such as tiles, shower heads and decorative hardware. Frosted or colored glass blocks can be added for a striking one of a kind effect. In addition, since the blocks are lighter they are easier to maneuver, cut labor costs, and put approximately thirty percent less weight on floor joists. Thinner units also translate into a larger shower interior, which delights many clients and makes it possible to turn a small 60 x 34 bathtub into a curved walk in shower.

The most common uses of glass block wall assemblies in the bath are for showers and partition walls to separate the toilet from the main bath area. They are also frequently used outside the bath for bars (in rec rooms and family rooms) and are setting trends for cutting edge projects such as ice bars.

Bathroom rennovation project
This is the bathroom rennovation that my wife and I resently completed. We are not professionals but just do it yourselfers. It has been quite an experience with rewarding results for us. Our house is slowly being converted into a home with personal touches. The music in the background is the wonderful Vitamin String Quartet doing a tribute to Cold Play. The songs are "Don #39;t Panic" and "Daylight". How appropriate when working on home projects like these. All plumbing, elctrical and tile work was done by us with the help of other do it yourselfers and home improvement videos. Thank you for watching. Enjoy!From:jeffman454ssViews:0 0ratingsTime:06:45More inHowto Style
