Five Business Days to Get a Family Back Into Their House

A local builder in Highton needed a frameless shower screen and a bevelled edge mirror supplied and installed urgently.

The deadline was not a construction milestone. The client's temporary accommodation had run out, and until the bathroom was finished they had nowhere to move back into.

Five business days from quote approval

Both items were supplied and installed within five business days of the quote being approved, which let the family move home.

On renovation work the glazing is often the last trade in, which means it inherits every delay that came before it and has none of the slack. Being able to turn custom glass around quickly is frequently what decides whether a handover date holds.

What went in

The shower screen is toughened safety glass in a frameless design, chosen to keep a modern bathroom open and bright rather than dividing it with framing.

The mirror has a bevelled edge, which pairs with the white tile work and geometric flooring.

A note on bevelled mirrors

Bevelled mirrors have become genuinely hard to get in Australia. Most manufacturers discontinued them because of the machinery maintenance the bevelling process demands.

We have since secured a new supplier, so this classic edge detail is available again through us. If you have been told a bevelled mirror cannot be sourced any more, that is why, and it is no longer true here.
