Consider replacing your shower doors if you're about to put your house on the market or if you just want to give your bathroom a facelift. Look for the signs listed below that indicate your doors need to be replaced, even if they are relatively new. When you’re ready to replace your shower or tub enclosure in Tucson, AZ, Columbus Glass & Screen is the place to call. Mold Mold thrives in warm, moist environments. Mold is most likely to blame if you've noticed black or green stains in or around your shower. Despite the fact that mold can be removed, it will return to the same areas due to poor ventilation. If you're planning a bathroom remodel, new shower doors and proper ventilation will go a long way toward preventing new mold growth. Dull Glass When no amount of cleaning products can restore your glass to its original crystal clarity, it's time to replace it. Hard water deposits from the showerhead cling to the glass over time, dulling its appearance. Glass Damage Shower doors are made of tempered glass, which is extremely durable but not indestructible. Examine the glass for any chips, splits, or cracks. Because cracked glass is more likely to shatter, especially around the edges, we recommend that you replace it as soon as possible to avoid any injuries. Water Leaks Water leaks are easy to spot because a puddle of water will frequently form outside the shower door. Fortunately, leaking doors don't always need to be replaced entirely. Oftentimes all that is required is a new seal or gasket. Consult a local glass expert to determine which option is best for you.
