Mr-Glass Construction in San Bernardino, CA | Mason Remodeling
We provide independent Mr-Glass shower enclosure and glass installation across San Bernardino, from tub-to-shower conversions in 1950s ranch homes to frameless enclosures in newer builds. The work that keeps us busiest here is converting mid-century tub alcoves into walk-in showers, because that 5-foot tub footprint is usually the only realistic shower space in the house. We handle the framing, waterproofing, tile, and Mr-Glass glass as one complete job, not a glass swap bolted onto someone else’s prep work. Call (803) 680-2547 for a free estimate on your Mr-Glass project.
Why San Bernardino Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Mason Remodeling installs Mr-Glass shower enclosures and glass products every week, so our crew knows how their panels, hardware, and seals actually behave in Inland Empire homes. We are an independent remodeling company, not a manufacturer-authorized dealer, which means we recommend what makes sense for your shower, not what pushes a corporate parts program. Isaac Pruett, our owner, grew up watching his finish-carpenter dad reject sloppy trim work, and that same standard follows every enclosure we hang: the door lines up square, the sweep seals clean, and the silicone beads are tooled, not smeared. As part of the Threshold Group family since 2004, we put a written price in front of you before any work starts and back the finished job with our 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in San Bernardino
- Hard-water spotting and mineral etching on Mr-Glass panels. San Bernardino water runs hard, and shower glass that isn’t squeegeed or coated hazes within a couple of seasons. We assess whether the glass can be polished or needs replacement.
- Bottom seal and sweep failure in frameless units. The clear vinyl sweep hardens with age, cracks, and starts leaking onto the curb and bathroom floor. We replace sweeps with Mr-Glass OEM parts when the glass itself is still sound.
- Hinge and pivot screw loosening. When an enclosure is mounted to tile over backer board that wasn’t blocked out solidly behind the wall, screws work loose and the door sags, leaving uneven gaps at the jambs.
- Curb and threshold leaks from failing silicone. Missing or degraded silicone where the glass meets a tile curb is a common call after a shower remodel on a sloped pan. Water escapes, and the fix is removal, cleaning, and a proper tooled bead, not caulk over caulk.
- Discontinued panel sizes and chipped glass edges. When a Mr-Glass panel is chipped at the edge or the size is no longer made, we template and install a new enclosure rather than chasing obsolete hardware that will fail again.
Mr-Glass Service in San Bernardino: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Much of San Bernardino’s older housing stock in the core neighborhoods was built mid-century with a single bathroom and a 5-foot tub alcove. In the Del Rosa area and other foothill-adjacent streets, a homeowner who wants a walk-in shower usually has one realistic option: lose the tub and convert the alcove. That means Bathroom Remodeling in San Bernardino with Mr-Glass is rarely a glass swap in an already-built shower. It is a tub-to-shower conversion with new framing, a properly blocked substrate for hinge screws, waterproofing, a new pan, and tile, followed by templating and hanging a Mr-Glass semi-frameless or frameless unit. The enclosures we install here are sized to the new tile layout, not retrofitted to a 70-year-old opening. That one fact shapes every recommendation we make about model selection, curb height, and swing direction.
On a 1950s ranch home near the base of the foothills in the Del Rosa area, the owner wanted the original 5-foot tub gone and a frameless Mr-Glass enclosure in its place. We reframed the alcove, installed a new pan and tile, then templated a Mr-Glass semi-frameless door with OEM hinges and a fresh sweep after the old enclosure’s seal had failed and leaked onto the curb. The finished shower is now a low-curb walk-in with a panel sized to the new tile layout, and the door lines up square with no sag.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in San Bernardino
Our crew works with the Mr-Glass Semi-Frameless Shower Door (GSF series), the Frameless Shower Enclosure (GF series), and the EuroBath sliding tub-to-shower glass system. We also cut and install Mr-Glass custom mirrors and glass shelving. For repair work, we use Mr-Glass OEM replacement sweeps, seals, hinges, and handles when the original glass is sound, which is the honest fix most of the time. If the enclosure is a discontinued size or the glass is beyond restoration, we template a new Mr-Glass panel or full unit and install it on properly prepared openings.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in San Bernardino
Yes, in most cases the sweep, seals, and hinges can be replaced with Mr-Glass OEM parts while the original glass stays in place. That is the honest fix when the glass is sound, the panel size is still available, and the hinge screw blocking behind the tile is solid. If the substrate is rotted or the glass is chipped, we will tell you a repair would be temporary and price a replacement instead. Call (803) 680-2547 and we will assess it in person.
Light hazing and hard-water spots can often be polished with a glass-safe mineral remover and buffing compound. If the etching has gone deep into the surface, which happens after years of San Bernardino’s hard water sitting on uncoated glass, polishing will not bring it back to clear, and we will recommend a new panel or enclosure. We can also apply a glass protectant after clean-up to slow future buildup, though daily squeegeeing still matters more.
As our General Contractor in San Bernardino, we handle the whole job: demo, framing, substrate blocking for hinge screws, waterproofing, pan, tile, and the Mr-Glass enclosure. That is the difference between a shower that opens and closes square for years and a door that sags because the tile was hung by one crew and the glass by another who never saw what was behind the wall. One crew, one written price, one warranty on the finished shower.
A standard 5-foot tub-to-shower conversion in San Bernardino typically runs 4 to 7 working days, depending on whether we hit framing surprises behind the old tub surround and how long tile setting and cure times take before the glass can be templated and hung. We will give you a written schedule with the estimate, and we will tell you the day before if anything found on-site changes that schedule. Call (803) 680-2547 to get a firm timeline for your specific bathroom.
No, Mason Remodeling is an independent remodeling company, not a Mr-Glass-authorized dealer or manufacturer affiliate. We buy Mr-Glass OEM parts through normal supply channels and install them to the same fit and finish standard we would want in our own homes. Independence means we can tell you when a repair is smarter than a replacement without a factory program pushing a particular outcome.
