Mr-Glass Construction in Broadmoor, CA | San Bruno Construction
We’re San Bruno Construction, and we provide General Contractor in Broadmoor services including independent Mr-Glass service across Broadmoor, CA – shower enclosures, mirrors, and glass installations for the 94015 ZIP. The one thing that makes our Mr-Glass work different here is simple: we know Broadmoor is unincorporated San Mateo County, ringed entirely by Daly City, so permits and plan checks run through a different jurisdiction than the surrounding blocks. If you need Mr-Glass frameless shower work, call (866) 472-1908 for a free estimate.
Why Broadmoor Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
We’ve spent years installing and servicing Mr-Glass shower enclosures, mirrors, and glass products across Broadmoor, the surrounding Daly City blocks, and nearby South San Francisco Mr-Glass service areas. That matters because we know how these assemblies age in coastal fog-belt conditions – the persistent damp, the corroding hardware, the mold that finds every unsealed joint. We’re an independent Mr-Glass service provider, not affiliated with or authorized by the manufacturer. That means we give you straight answers about whether to repair or replace, without a brand rep leaning over our shoulder.
Noel Carvalho runs our crew. He trained in construction technology at Skyline College and has spent more than two decades running residential projects across San Mateo County. His daughter was born in San Bruno, which is reason enough to care whether the glass hangs straight and the hinges hold up twenty years from now. For Mr-Glass work in Broadmoor, we handle Mr-Glass sales & service from first measurement to final wipe-down.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Broadmoor
Broadmoor’s housing stock is mostly 1940s – 1950s post-war tract homes on small lots with tight bathrooms and older framing. That shapes the failure modes we see. Here are the five most common Mr-Glass problems we fix in Broadmoor:
- Seized or corroded hinge hardware on frameless enclosures. Broadmoor’s coastal moisture works into unsealed pivot points, and before long the hinge binds or snags. We replace the hardware with genuine OEM Mr-Glass pivots, often the same day.
- Mold and failed vinyl sweeps on bypass tub-shower doors. The bottom rail of a Mr-Glass sliding bypass door is a mold magnet in year-round damp. We source quality-tested aftermarket sweeps when OEM is discontinued, then reseal the track so water stops pooling.
- Chipped or shattered tempered glass at hinge cutouts. Narrow 1950s Broadmoor bathrooms often leave no clearance for door swing. A panel chipped at a cutout is a safety issue – tempered glass can’t be reliably patched, so we recommend replacement and we template the new panel to that specific opening.
- Mirror silvering and edge delamination behind vanities. In older post-war homes, wall moisture migrates behind vanity mirrors and eats at the silvering. Mr-Glass custom-cut mirrors hold up far better when we address the moisture source first.
- Enclosures that were never permitted properly. Because Broadmoor is unincorporated San Mateo County, a shower or mirror job that changes a bathroom’s layout can require a San Mateo County permit. We pull that permit before we template glass – the neighbor across the street in Daly City wouldn’t need the same step.
Mr-Glass Service in Broadmoor: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Broadmoor is a small unincorporated San Mateo County enclave entirely surrounded by Daly City. Virtually every construction project here runs through San Mateo County’s building department rather than Daly City’s – a jurisdiction quirk that shapes permitting, inspection scheduling, and plan-check timelines. For Mr-Glass owners, the practical effect shows up fast: a Mr-Glass shower or mirror job that changes a bathroom’s layout can require a San Mateo County permit that our crew pulls before templating glass. Even when the neighbor across the street is on Daly City’s jurisdiction and wouldn’t need the same step, your parcel in Broadmoor answers to the county. We confirm which jurisdiction governs the parcel before a single tool comes out of the truck, because getting that wrong means a stop-work order, not a finished bathroom. On a 1950s tract home near the Broadmoor Village edge, our crew templated a Mr-Glass frameless hinged shower enclosure for a tight bathroom where the original swinging wood door fouled the vanity. We set the pivot so the glass swings clear, sealed the hinges against the damp, and confirmed the parcel’s San Mateo County permit before the tempered panels went to the fabricator – the enclosure now closes with an even gap and no mold at the sweep. Good construction doesn’t announce itself – it just works, year after year.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Broadmoor
We service the full Mr-Glass residential line: frameless hinged shower enclosures in 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch tempered glass, sliding bypass tub-shower glass doors, custom-cut mirrors and frameless wall mirror installations, and the semi-frameless pivot shower door series. We also handle Mr-Glass service in Pacifica and nearby coastal communities. Our parts approach is straightforward – we source genuine OEM Mr-Glass hardware (hinges, pivots, handles, sweeps) for like-for-like replacement, and we use quality-tested aftermarket seals only where OEM is discontinued. We keep common Mr-Glass hinge and sweep parts on hand so Broadmoor turnarounds don’t stall waiting on a freight shipment.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Broadmoor
Not always, but often. If the Mr-Glass enclosure simply replaces an existing shower door in the same footprint, a permit may not be required. If the job changes the bathroom’s layout – moving a drain, shifting a wall, or altering the shower footprint – you’re in San Mateo County’s jurisdiction in Broadmoor, and that means a county permit before templating. We confirm the parcel’s jurisdiction and pull the permit ourselves. Call (866) 472-1908 if you want us to check your specific property.
Fog-belt moisture. Broadmoor sits just south of San Francisco in cool, damp coastal air that never fully dries out. Unsealed pivot points on Mr-Glass frameless enclosures wick that moisture into the hinge barrel, and corrosion seizes the swing. We replace with OEM hardware and seal the pivot against the damp so it doesn’t come back in two years.
Only at the fabrication stage. Once tempered mirror glass is in your hand, you can’t field-cut it safely. But we template custom Mr-Glass mirrors to the actual wall dimensions of your 1940s – 1950s Broadmoor bath, including out-of-square walls, and we check for the wall moisture that causes silvering failure before we hang. Call (866) 472-1908 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
The bypass sliding door doesn’t need swing clearance, which is why it works in narrow 1950s Broadmoor bathrooms. The hinged frameless enclosure looks cleaner but needs room for the door to arc open without hitting the vanity or toilet. We template for whichever your square footage can actually support.
Both. We can replace a single Mr-Glass panel, swap corroded hinges, or run the full remodel – framing correction, waterproofing, pan, tile, vanity, and the Mr-Glass enclosure – under one contract, including Mr-Glass repair in Colma and surrounding areas. San Bruno Construction is the general contractor, so we coordinate every trade. Call (866) 472-1908 for a free estimate on the scope you need.
