Good morning. First time doing a bathroom and I am at the stage where the tile is going in and I need to sort the shower glass. I have no reference point for any of this, no idea what things should cost, how long fabrication takes, or how much lead time to leave. The contractor has told me it is not his scope, which I did not expect. Where does somebody start with this, and how far ahead of the tile finishing should I be calling? The bathroom is small and there is a window right beside the shower, which may limit the layout.

Call now, before the tile is finished, so you are in the schedule. The template visit happens after the tiling is done and fabrication runs a week or two from there, which is the part that catches people out when the rest of the bathroom is ready and waiting. Get a rough quote from the drawings and confirm it at the template. When I searched frameless shower enclosures near me the useful filter was who measures on site rather than working off contractor dimensions, and Shower Doors Prices does. Keep your contractor available until the glass is in, in case anything needs a small adjustment. With a window that close, ask about the panel edge distance early, since it changes where the fixed panel can land.
