Life can be so full of distractions that you don’t realize how much you really have to offer. Sometimes, it can even feel like your to-do list is accumulating faster than you can keep up.

Honestly, you and your teammates may not know just how powerful you are, and from this lack of understanding comes a lack in overall progress. When you can see how valuable<…READ MORE…>

Customer Review Highlight  

We love receiving reviews from happy customers that highlight our amazing staff here at Basco. We recently received an amazing review from a homeowner to tell us about her experience with Kim Alcorn, Retail/Ecommerce Lead Customer Service Specialist, who has been with Basco for over 20 years. 

“I was very unhappy with my Basco Infinity 1422 French shower doors that just leaked terribly. I was frustrated as I could find no professional installer familiar or willing to help with this product (and that was before the Pandemic). 
In desperation, I reached out to Basco. Ms. Alcorn was pleasant, very knowledgeable and amazingly patient with someone who just couldn’t make sense of the installation diagram. 
She asked for photos, which I sent but really didn’t expect to do much good. 
To my delight, she immediately spotted 3 or 4 issues: grout under door, sweeps on wrong sides, dam misaligned & improper caulking. She ordered replacement parts for me which arrived within a few days. 
I am extremely grateful since she has saved me a lot of trouble. 
It seems that most companies now hound consumers to complete surveys, which I dislike, but I am pleased to volunteer a positive review for a conscientious & deserving employee. She has restored my faith in the industry & respect of the Basco reputation for quality. In the future, I will buy and refer others to your company.”

Clean that lasts  

It’s our pleasure to take care of our customers long after installation is completed, which is why we recommend our AquaGlideXP protective glass coating.

Basco’s AquaGlideXP is an ultra-protective coating that:

  • Seals and protects the glass, repelling moisture, soap film and mineral deposits.
  • Causes water to bead up on the glass.
  • Prevents corrosion and preserves the beauty of the enclosure.
  • Is similar to having a semi-permanent wax on your car or rain repellent on your wind shield.
  • Is available with all glass options.

Acrylic and Fiberglass Guide   

Our Acrylic and Fiberglass Guide is a reference and installation tool to help your customers select the proper substrate. Selecting the proper substrate for a shower door is as important as selecting the enclosure itself, so it is with this in mind that we encourage our customers to understand the differences between acrylic and gel-coat/fiberglass and to consider which doors are appropriate for each application.

Employee Spotlight – Shonna Callahan 

We are honored to highlight Shonna Callahan. Shonna has worked at Basco for over 27 years and her current role is Technical Specialist/Glass Lead. Below are some fun facts about Shonna. 

Q: What is your favorite part of your job?  
A:
 Talking to people and helping them to install their shower doors. They pay quite a bit for their dream bathroom and I want them to feel good about their shower door when it is done.  
Q: What is your proudest moment at Basco?  
A: I think my proudest moment is when I was handed the 25 year award and every day since then. Not many people can say they have worked at a company that long. Basco has been good to me and my family. I wouldn’t have invested that many years in a company if I didn’t truly believe in them.  
Q: If you could switch jobs with anyone in the company, whose job would you want?  
A: I have had several jobs over the years and don’t want to switch. Basco is an adventure every day. It may seem like I am do the same thing, but talking on the tech line is a variety and different each time.
Q: Tell us a little bit about your family – husband, children, grandchildren?
A: My husband, Randy and I will be married 40 years on June 12th. I have three children and seven grandchildren – four granddaughters and three grandsons. I see four of them as often as I like, one I don’t see very often, and two live far away. We were supposed to go visit them but the COVID-19 crisis came on and had to cancel it. But I feel very blessed to have them.
Q: When you aren’t working, what’s your favorite thing to do?  
A: I love spending time with family, crafting, traveling, and good sports, which I miss.  
Q: What are you looking forward to most when the COVID-19 crisis has ended?  
A: I look forward to giving my grandchildren hugs. I am a hugger and right now we have to give virtual hugs. I can say staying home has made me appreciate life more. I have spent more time doing things that I normally didn’t have time for. I feel very blessed to be able to do what I love to do.

Please reach out to our Customer Service Department, which includes Shonna and others great folks like her, if you need any assistance at 800-45BASCO or email inquiry@bascoshowerdoor.com.
