Northfield is a small, well-maintained village with established residential neighborhoods and a steady stream of meaningful bath remodels. The work we do here is consistent — frameless walk-ins, careful measurement, classic hardware finishes.
Most Northfield primary baths we walk into are part of a thoughtful remodel — new tile, updated plumbing, considered hardware. Our job is to install glass that complements all of it. The configurations are usually frameless hinged doors with one fixed inline panel, sometimes a 90-degree return.
Northfield homeowners tend to do their homework. By the time we arrive to measure, they know what they want and they want it executed well. We respect that and install accordingly.

Established residential. Frameless walk-ins and hinged doors.

A 1960s ranch had a corner shower the builder had framed in bronze. ⅜″ frameless 90-degree return with matte-black hardware.
A custom home had a 6×5 shower zone. Three-panel ½″ low-iron frameless layout: hinged door, fixed inline, fixed return. Hardware in polished chrome.
Northfield clients gravitate to classic frameless geometry with understated hardware — brushed nickel, polished chrome, the occasional matte black. The look is meant to last 20+ years and it does.
