Mr-Glass Construction in Lexington Hills, CA | San Bruno Construction
We’re San Bruno Construction, and we provide independent Los Gatos Mr-Glass service, Mr-Glass sales & service across Lexington Hills, and the surrounding Santa Cruz Mountains. What makes our Mr-Glass work here different is simple: we know a shower enclosure or mirror install in this ZIP isn’t just a glass job. It often rides alongside a Cal Fire wildland-urban interface clearance that determines whether your broader remodel even gets a permit. If your Mr-Glass frameless shower is leaking, sagging, or shattered after a storm, call (866) 472-1908 and we’ll send someone who knows Lexington Hills, not just glass.
Why Lexington Hills Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Most glass companies sell you a product and disappear. We’re a full-scope residential general contractor led by Noel Carvalho, and we coordinate Mr-Glass enclosures, mirrors, shower systems, and glass railings as one trade among many on a remodel. That matters in Lexington Hills. When a frameless shower door fails because hard private-well water ate the hinges, the fix often involves tile, waterproofing, and sometimes a wall that’s out of plumb after decades of settling. We handle the whole scope under one contract, so you’re not juggling a glass vendor, a tile setter, and a drywall crew.
Noel grew up off El Camino Real in San Bruno and trained in construction technology at Skyline College, where the focus was reading plans and understanding load paths before the first tool comes out of the truck. That discipline shows up in Mr-Glass installs on sloped Lexington Hills lots, where a shower pan that isn’t dead level on a settled subfloor becomes a leak you chase for years. We use OEM Mr-Glass hinges, seals, and rollers when the model is still supported, and quality aftermarket equivalents when OEM hardware is discontinued. Call (866) 472-1908 for a straight answer on which path makes sense for your enclosure.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Lexington Hills
- Frameless shower hinges and seals that corrode and stiffen. Lexington Hills lots above the 95031 corridor are overwhelmingly on private wells, and the water runs hard enough to eat brass and chrome hardware. We see Mr-Glass door sweeps that have gone rigid, forcing the glass out of alignment until it sags and leaks at the threshold. The fix is new OEM hinge sets and seals, and sometimes a re-square of the panel.
- Semi-frameless bypass door rollers that jump track. Older mountain cabins settle, and door jambs that were plumb in 1978 aren’t plumb now. When the top track twists even a quarter inch, Mr-Glass bypass rollers bind, pop, and finally jump track. We re-shim and re-square the jamb before touching the hardware, because replacing rollers on a warped frame just sends you back to the same failure.
- Cracked or de-silvered tempered glass and mirrors on sun-exposed walls. South-facing walls in Lexington Hills take brutal thermal cycling through hot, dry summers. Mirrors de-silver from the edges inward; tempered panels stress and crack along mounting points. If the glass is chipped or failing, we recommend full replacement rather than resealing a panel that’s already losing its tempering integrity.
- Storm and debris impact damage. Winter storms and fire-season wind throw branches and embers into exterior glass. Older enclosure glazing often predates today’s safety-glazing expectations, which makes a shattered panel a compliance issue, not just an eyesore. We replace with current tempered glass and match the frame as closely as Mr-Glass’s current hardware allows.
- Leaks from failed sweeps and seals on steam-prone shower enclosures. Rustic cabins in Lexington Hills tend toward tight bathrooms with limited ventilation. Condensation sits on seals and sills. When a sweep fails, water wicks into the sill and rots the framing behind the tile. We pull the bottom track, inspect the wood, and rebuild before reinstalling the glass.
Mr-Glass Service in Lexington Hills: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Lexington Hills is an unincorporated Santa Cruz Mountains community, and nearly every construction project here has to clear Cal Fire’s wildland-urban interface defensible-space and Chapter 7A ignition-resistant building requirements before a permit issues. That’s not a footnote. It’s the first hurdle. The county fire-safe clearance inspection is often the real gatekeeper on a permit here, not the building department, and that fact changes how we sequence Mr-Glass work. On a cedar-sided ranch home off Idyllwild Road, our crew replaced a failing semi-frameless bypass shower door whose well-water-corroded rollers had jumped track and soaked the surround. We re-squared the jamb, set a new Mr-Glass frameless enclosure with upgraded seals, and retiled the sill, and the homeowner passed the county fire-safe clearance for the adjacent roof scope the same week. In Lexington Hills, your shower door and your Chapter 7A roof deck are not separate conversations. If a fire-marshal review is already gating your project, we’ll time the glass and mirror work around it so nothing gets red-tagged. That coordination is exactly why a general contractor makes more sense here than a standalone glass vendor.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Lexington Hills
We install and repair Mr-Glass frameless glass shower enclosures, semi-frameless and bypass sliding shower doors, custom-cut mirrors and mirror wardrobe doors, and glass railing and interior glass partition systems. On the parts side, our approach is consistent: OEM Mr-Glass hinges, seals, and rollers when the model line is still supported, and quality aftermarket equivalents when OEM hardware is discontinued or slow to arrive. We keep common seal profiles and roller assemblies on hand for faster turnaround in Lexington Hills, and we’re honest about the repair-versus-replace call. If the tempered glass is sound and the frame is square, we reseal and rehang. If the glass is chipped, de-silvered, or below current safety-glazing expectations, we’ll tell you it’s time for a new panel rather than pretending a band-aid fix will hold.

AfterMr-Glass Service Pricing in Lexington Hills
Mr-Glass construction service costs in Lexington Hills vary by scope, and the numbers below reflect what we’ve consistently seen across the Santa Cruz Mountains. Walk-in shower and glass enclosure projects in older mountain homes, like those needing Mr-Glass repair in Cambrian Park, tend to land at the higher end of these ranges when tile, waterproofing, or subfloor re-leveling is involved. A simple reseal and rehang runs lower. Here’s what our customers in Lexington Hills typically budget:
| Mr-Glass Related Service | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Walk-In Shower Installation | $4,500 – $12,000 |
| Tub-to-Shower Conversion | $3,500 – $10,000 |
| Shower Replacement | $3,000 – $8,500 |
| Bathroom Vanity Installation | $800 – $3,000 |

Call (866) 472-1908 and we’ll walk your project and give you real numbers for Lexington Hills, not a generic regional average.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Lexington Hills
Yes, it can. Because Lexington Hills sits in a Cal Fire wildland-urban interface zone, even interior glass and mirror work often rides alongside a Chapter 7A ignition-resistant roof or deck scope that the county fire-safe clearance inspection gates before the building department signs off. If your remodel triggers a clearance review, we sequence the Mr-Glass install around it so your project doesn’t stall. Call (866) 472-1908 and we’ll tell you whether your scope is affected.
In Lexington Hills the usual culprit is hard well water. Private wells on these mountain lots pump mineral-heavy water that corrodes brass and chrome hinge internals, and the seals eventually stiffen until the door sags and water leaks at the sweep. We replace the hinge sets and seals with OEM Mr-Glass parts when available, and we check the mounting points for settling at the same time. For an exact diagnosis, call (866) 472-1908.
Often, yes. If the tempered glass is sound and the frame is square, we repair the door: new rollers, new seals, re-hanging, and a jamb re-square if settling has knocked the track out of alignment. If the glass is chipped, de-silvered, or below current safety-glazing standards, we’ll recommend full replacement and explain why. Either way, the estimate is free.
Yes. We’re a full-scope general contractor, so a Mr-Glass enclosure in Lexington Hills can be coordinated with a Chapter 7A-compliant roof replacement, siding upgrade, or deck scope under the same contract. That eliminates the scheduling chaos of separate glass and roofing vendors and keeps one accountable point of contact from start to fire clearance. Call (866) 472-1908 to map the whole project.
It affects access, staging, and timing. Fire-season restrictions and erosion-control requirements on steep, wooded Lexington Hills lots narrow the windows when we can run certain scopes, and deliveries to narrow driveways need to be coordinated carefully. We plan glass work around these constraints from the start, so you’re not waiting on a panel that couldn’t make it up the hill. The best move is a free site assessment; call (866) 472-1908 to schedule one.
