In Punjab, where 5-marla, 7-marla, and 10-marla houses dominate the real estate market, bathrooms are usually the smallest and most neglected rooms in the house. A typical master bathroom measures 5×7 ft or 6×8 ft, guest bathrooms shrink to 5×5 ft, and powder rooms can be as tiny as 4×6 ft. Yet, this is the one room every family member uses multiple times a day — and guests judge the entire house by it.
Over the past five years, a quiet revolution has taken place across Lahore, Faisalabad, Multan, Gujranwala, Sialkot, Rawalpindi, and Islamabad. Thousands of families have ditched moldy shower curtains, cracked tiled walls, and slippery floors for one simple upgrade: custom glass shower cabins.
At Green Glass Designer, we have designed and installed over 12,000 glass cabins across Punjab since 2012, and 2025 is proving to be our busiest year yet. From compact apartments in Gulberg and Johar Town to farmhouses on Bedian Road and textile mansions in Faisalabad, the demand for space-saving, luxury-looking glass cabins has never been higher.
This ultimate guide covers everything you need to know about using glass shower cabins to transform even the tiniest Punjab bathroom into a bright, modern, and functional space.
The Hidden Problems of Traditional Small Bathrooms in Punjab
Before glass cabins became mainstream, most Punjab homes relied on one of these outdated setups:
- Half-height tiled wall + plastic shower curtain
- Fully open tiled corner with no separation
- Cheap aluminum rod + fabric curtain
- PVC folding doors (the ones that yellow and break within a year)
These “solutions” create a chain of daily headaches:
- Water everywhere → constant mopping and slippery floors
- Black mold on curtains and grout within months
- Dark, closed-in feeling even with lights on
- Wasted corner space that could have been used better
- Embarrassment when guests use the bathroom
- Frequent repairs and replacements every 2–3 years
Glass shower cabins solve every single problem in one permanent installation.

Common Myths vs Reality
Myth | Reality |
Glass cabins are very costly | More affordable and longer-lasting than repeated tiling + curtains |
They make the bathroom feel cold | Actually retain steam better; most clients say it feels warmer |
Water leaks from bottom & sides | Only with poor installation — we give lifetime no-leak guarantee |
Hard to keep clean | Easier than tiles — just squeegee once |
Not safe for homes with kids | Tempered glass is 5–7× stronger and shatters safely if ever broken |
Conclusion:
If you are still using shower curtains, stepping over half walls, or mopping water every day, you are literally throwing away comfort, safety, and resale value.
A custom glass shower cabin is no longer a “luxury” — it has become the new standard for any respectable home in Punjab. Whether you live in a modest 5-marla portion in Allama Iqbal Town or a 2-kanal farmhouse in DHA, the transformation is the same: tiny, dark, problematic bathroom → bright, spacious, luxurious spa.
The best part? You don’t need to renovate the entire bathroom. In most cases, we install the cabin directly over your existing tiles in just one day, giving you an instant upgrade without breaking the bank or living in construction mess.
2025 is seeing record demand because people have realized: why settle for outdated, high-maintenance solutions when a permanent, beautiful, space-maximizing glass cabin is now easily available across Punjab?
Don’t wait another year living with a cramped, dated bathroom.
