Your indoor areas will be enhanced by a glass block shower wall. I know a simple window covering isn't enough to keep your space or bathroom private. So you can consider installing glass block windows. Let me guide you on how to install glass block shower wall.

Give NoBroker a call to install the glass block wall in the best possible way.

How to install glass blocks in a shower?

I have mentioned below a detailed procedure about how to install glass block window in bathroom or showers. You will be able to install one after reading my guide properly.

  1. You need to determine the number of blocks required by measuring the opening for the glass wall. Because glass blocks cannot be cut.

  2. Arrange the blocks on a table to determine the exact size of the installation using the separators included in the block kit. 

  3. Construct a frame out of 1 by 6 to surround this collection of blocks.

  4. Cut one 1 by 6 to the length of the sides and another to the length of the bottom plus 112 inches. Use screws or fasteners to put the frame together.

  5. Assemble the frame and it should be centred in the opening, with any required blockage. 

  6. Before you attach the framework to the opening, ensure it's square and even.

  7. Prepare the glass-block mortar according to the package specifications. 

  8. Apply the mortar along the bottom and border of the glass block, then use the spacers to press it into the corner. 

  9. Continue building blocks from left to right until the first course is complete.

  10. The metal holding strips should be screwed to the side frame and bent to match between the rows of blocks. It will also help you with how to install glass block windows.

  11. Apply mortar to the whole first row of glass blocks, ensuring that the holding strips are centred in the mortar bed, and then insert a strengthening strip.

  12. Proceed all the way to the top with the following series of glass blocks. Now you know how to install glass block basement windows.

  13. Once the mortar has built up a bit, carefully wipe the block with a sponge and water before shaping the mortar with the mortar-shaping instrument. 

  14. A dry towel can be used to wipe away any dust that has settled on the block.

  15. Once the mortar has been set, apply a clean layer of sealant around the block's perimeter.

  16. Fill the gap between the 1 by 6 frame and the original wall with casing moulding. Fill up the gaps in the moulding and framework with filler and paint.

Now you can take a reference from my guide on how to install glass block shower wall.
