Topic: We’re learning how to keep our glass half-full with Cameron Kartak of AAA Kartak Glass and Closets Inc. Cameron joined the Carey Brothers to discuss shower doors, mirrors, correctly measuring a client’s bathroom for swinging doors, and, of course, the CareyBrosPros Three Points for Success.

During this edition of CareyBrosPros, you’ll find out:

- What keeps AAA Kartak glass cleaner than all the rest!
- Why you should ALWAYS put in double backed studs or a 4x4 stud for your shower enclosure.

3 Points for Success – from Cameron Kartak: 


1. The most important is that glass is a final product. You need to make sure that you're looking at what you're buying.

2. You get what you pay for. Everyone has the same glass. There's going to be probably just a couple of glass manufacturers in the world and so everyone all over the world gets shipped the same glass virtually. And so you're not really paying for different glass companies for the glass, you're paying for the installers.

3. It's better to over strengthen your hard surfaces then under strengthen them. If you understrength them, you could have your frameless shower enclosure dream shatter. You need to get a header.

BONUS TIP: Out of squares are okay as long as they're consistent. We don't want any dog legs or elbows. That's where you can't cut the glass very specific in that way.
