PORT CITY GLASS AND MIRROR
Many homeowners are opting to do away with their old tubs and are installing a new heavy glass shower enclosure. This trend has kept Port City Glass & Mirror extremely busy over the years, and they've responded by renovating their showroom to display several shower enclosures demonstrating various heavy glass options and styles. Once you decide which style you prefer, they'll provide a virtual rendering to take home for review. While you are visiting, Port City will also show you the various mirror options available for your space. 1519 King Street Extension, Charleston (843) 577-6500 • portcityglass.net Freddy Giavelli of Port City Glass and Mirror
