Northcote bathrooms can vary a lot, from older period homes and compact ensuites through to renovated townhouses and newer apartment bathrooms. Because every opening is slightly different, a custom measured shower screen is usually the best way to get a clean result.
We install frameless shower screens in Northcote for homeowners, renovators and builders who want a simple glass layout that feels open, practical and easy to live with.
During the measure, we check the tile fall, wall alignment, fixing points, door clearance and nearby fixtures so the shower screen suits the actual bathroom, not just the plan.

How a Northcote shower screen project usually works
Most frameless shower screens are measured once the bathroom is tiled. That allows the glass to be made to the actual finished opening, instead of relying only on plans or rough measurements.
Bathroom is ready for measure
Final measurements are normally taken after wall tiles, floor tiles, hob tiles and niches are finished.
Layout is checked on site
We check tile fall, wall alignment, fixing points, door swing, nearby towel rails and any tight access points.
Glass and hardware are confirmed
The glass type, panel layout and hardware finish are confirmed before the shower screen is ordered.
Installation is completed
The screen is installed, aligned, sealed where required and checked so the door or panels sit correctly.
Nano glass coating for easier everyday cleaning
For Northcote clients who want to make ongoing maintenance easier, we can apply a protective Nano coating to the shower screen glass after installation.
The coating helps water, soap residue and mineral deposits bond less aggressively to the glass surface, making routine cleaning quicker and more manageable over time.
- Helps reduce water marks, soap build-up and staining
- Makes the glass easier to wipe down after use
- A practical upgrade for bathrooms used every day
- Best applied when the shower screen glass is new

Common questions before ordering a shower screen
A few practical things are worth checking before the glass is ordered, especially in renovated bathrooms where the walls, floor fall and nearby fixtures can affect the final layout.
Do you install frameless shower screens in Northcote?
Yes. We install custom frameless shower screens in Northcote and nearby suburbs including Westgarth, Thornbury, Fairfield, Preston, Brunswick, Clifton Hill and Coburg.
When should the shower screen be measured?
Final measure is usually done after the bathroom has been tiled. This gives the most accurate opening size and allows the glass to be made to suit the finished walls, floor and hob.
What type of shower screen works best in a small bathroom?
It depends on the layout. A fixed walk-in panel can work well where there is enough length, while a sliding shower screen may be better where a hinged door would clash with a vanity, toilet or towel rail.
Can I choose the glass and hardware finish?
Yes. Common choices include standard clear glass, low iron glass and narrow reeded glass, with hardware finishes such as chrome, matt black, brushed brass and brushed nickel.
Do frameless shower screens leak?
Frameless shower screens are not fully sealed like some framed enclosures, so the layout matters. Tile fall, shower head position, door gaps and panel placement all affect how well water is controlled.
Can you work with older Northcote bathrooms?
Yes. Older homes often have walls or floors that are not perfectly square, which is why final site measurement is important. The glass is measured to suit the finished bathroom, not just the original plan.
