Custom Glass Installation
in Gordon Woods.

Gordon Woods is an established residential pocket of Mississauga. The neighbourhood mixes mid-century ranch bungalows and side-splits with a steady cycle of tear-down rebuilds on the original lots. Glass work here is dominated by frameless shower enclosures, interior stair railings, and wide vanity mirrors. Every install carries our 5-year warranty on labour and 5-year warranty on hardware. Owner-operated, based in Oakville. Frameless showers from $850 · enclosures from $1,600

What Gordon Woods homes ask of glass

The glass work tracks the renovation cycle. Tear-down rebuilds get the full new-build glass suite — large frameless shower runs, interior stair and upper-hall guards, rear-deck railings, wide vanity mirrors. Partial renovations on the original homes get a single ensuite re-glass plus an interior stair or upper-hall guard upgrade.

Frameless shower enclosures in Gordon Woods

The Gordon Woods primary ensuite on a rebuild is a 15 to 20 square metre wet zone with a defined shower of 1.6 by 2.1 metres, a freestanding tub, a bench, and a linear drain. On a renovation of a 1960s side-split, the ensuite is typically a re-worked 9 to 12 square metre bath. Frameless shower glass on rebuilds is a three- or four-panel run with 12 mm tempered on any fixed panel over 1.1 metres unsupported. On renovations, 10 mm tempered is the standard with a single fixed plus a swing.

Glass railings in Gordon Woods

Interior stair guards and upper-hall guards are the dominant category in Gordon Woods. Most rebuilds — and many of the renovated originals — have an open stair and second-floor landing that benefits from a clean glass system. We replace original wood-and-spindle balustrades with frameless or top-railed glass, base-shoe anchored to the stair stringer and floor framing. Exterior rear-deck guards are the next category, with standard residential wind load on most lots. Pool-deck railings are a steady sub-category on the larger rebuilds and follow the City of Mississauga pool enclosure by-law.

Custom mirrors and partitions in Gordon Woods

Vanity mirrors in Gordon Woods ensuites run 2.0 to 2.8 metres of continuous mirror across a double-vanity wall on rebuilds, and 1.5 to 2.0 metres on renovations of the original homes. We cut to the wall, polish all edges, and back-mount with adhesive and concealed clips. Basement-gym and dressing-room mirror walls are a steady secondary category (see gym mirror installation in Mississauga). Partition work in Gordon Woods is mostly water-closet partitions inside the ensuite and the occasional glass wall on a finished basement.

Why a recent install in Gordon Woods matters

A recent install in Gordon Woods was a primary ensuite re-glass on a 1962 side-split that had been partially renovated in 2023. The new shower zone was a 1.5-metre curbless run on the back wall of the original bath footprint, with a 1.6-metre fixed panel that we fabricated in 12 mm tempered. The interesting detail was the substrate behind the back wall — the renovation had added a furred-out service chase behind the shower for re-routed plumbing, and the chase put solid framing 90 mm behind the tile face rather than the usual 16 mm. We extended the wall clip throws and confirmed the lag points before fabrication. The panel reads vertically true. Renovations on older bones reward careful templating.
