Mr-Glass Construction in Broadmoor, CA | Milpitas Construction
We provide independent Mr-Glass service across Broadmoor, CA, handling everything from frameless shower enclosures and tub glass to custom mirrors and vanity panels. The thing that makes our Mr-Glass work here different is simple: we know exactly what Broadmoor’s fog does to glass hardware, and we know which side of the street falls under which building department. Call (877) 752-4194 for a free estimate.
Why Broadmoor Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Mr-Glass frameless sliders and pivot enclosures are good units, but they behave differently on Broadmoor’s damp, wind-exposed ridge than they do ten miles inland. We’ve installed and serviced these enclosures across San Mateo County’s fog belt, including South San Francisco Mr-Glass service areas, long enough to know where they fail first. Hinges corrode. Sweeps shrink. Bottom seals let water track onto post-war stucco floors. Most contractors around here treat a Mr-Glass enclosure like any other glass job. We don’t, because Ken Stafford, our owner, grew up around Milpitas and built his trade through Evergreen Valley College’s construction technology program back when blueprint reading and site management were taught before you ever swung a hammer. That training stuck. We spec materials by name, so you know exactly what’s going into your Broadmoor home.
We’re also straight with homeowners from the first phone call: Milpitas Construction is an independent Mr-Glass service provider. We are not authorized, sponsored, or warranty-endorsed by Mr-Glass. What that means for you is we have no incentive to sell you a full replacement when a set of OEM rollers and fresh coastal-rated sealant will do the job. And when you do need new glass, we install it right.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Broadmoor
- Condensation weeping past bottom sweeps on frameless sliders. Broadmoor bathrooms stay damp. The fog doesn’t burn off by noon like it does over the hill. When Mr-Glass bottom sweeps and seals degrade, water tracks onto those 1950s stucco-over-wood floors and into the framing. We replace sweeps with OEM parts and check the pitch of the curb while we’re at it.
- Corroded and stiffened hinge hardware on pivot enclosures. The salt-and-moisture air along Southgate and Evergreen eats at hinge pivots. Doors start to drag, then bind, then the glass gets stressed at the hinge point. We pull the corroded hardware, fit OEM Mr-Glass replacement hinges, and adjust the swing so it closes true.
- Chipped tempered panels at cut edges or hinge points. A lot of original installers on these tight post-war lots drilled into out-of-square wall framing. When the framing moves, the glass takes the stress at the hinge. If a panel is chipped at a hinge or cut edge, the honest call is replacement. Patching tempered glass in a damp Broadmoor bath just delays the failure.
- Factory sealant and gaskets degrading too fast. Broadmoor bathrooms rarely dry out completely. Little sunlight, constant moisture. Mr-Glass factory sealant gives up earlier than it would in a drier climate. We strip and re-seal with coastal-rated products, then check the wall cavity behind the flange while it’s open.
- Track pullout from out-of-square framing. This one’s common on the narrow lots off Southgate. The original rough opening wasn’t squared, the track was shimmed loosely, and ten years of fog moisture worked the screws loose. We refasten, square the opening, and reset the enclosure so the door slides clean instead of dragging.
Mr-Glass Service in Broadmoor: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
There’s a fact about Broadmoor most people don’t realize until they pull a permit, and it shapes how we approach every Mr-Glass shower or glass-enclosure remodel here. Broadmoor is unincorporated. The whole pocket is surrounded by Daly City, but it is not Daly City. A Mr-Glass shower remodel on one side of your street may be reviewed and inspected by San Mateo County Building & Planning, while the house directly across from you falls under Daly City’s building department. That two-jurisdiction reality catches plenty of contractors and homeowners off guard. We’ve worked both sides of that line enough to know exactly which department applies to which address, and we factor the right review path into your estimate up front. It also means when we open up a 1940s or 1950s Broadmoor bath for a Mr-Glass walk-in shower, we’re doing it with the county inspector’s checklist in mind, not guessing which code cycle applies.
Combine that county review with the tight, densely built post-war lots, and you get another Broadmoor reality: very little side-yard clearance, attached garages, and rooms that were never designed for modern glass enclosures. On a cramped Evergreen Street lot, our crew opened up a 1950s post-war bath for a Mr-Glass frameless sliding enclosure and found the out-of-square wood framing had pulled the original track loose, with moisture creeping behind the stucco wall. We refastened and squared the rough opening, replaced the corroded rollers and weather sweeps with OEM Mr-Glass parts, and reset the enclosure with fresh coastal-rated sealant. The result was a clean-sliding, watertight door that finally matched the compact footprint the lot allowed.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Broadmoor
We work on the full range of Mr-Glass glass assemblies found in Broadmoor homes: frameless sliding shower door systems, semi-frameless pivot shower enclosures, custom-cut mirror and vanity glass packages, and tempered glass tub-enclosure panels. Our parts approach is the same across all of them. We fit OEM Mr-Glass replacement rollers, hinges, sweeps, and seals whenever they’re available, because original parts keep the enclosure’s fit and any remaining warranty path intact. For discontinued pieces, we turn to quality aftermarket hardware rather than leaving you with a door that drags or leaks. This is the same discipline we bring to every brand we service through our Mr-Glass sales & service work. For a deeper look at where we work, see our Broadmoor service area page.

On Broadmoor’s post-war homes, the biggest cost variable is what’s behind the wall once we open it for a new Mr-Glass enclosure.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Broadmoor
Yes. If the glass is sound and the track is still solidly anchored, we replace the bottom sweeps, side seals, and sealant with OEM Mr-Glass parts or quality aftermarket equivalents when the original pieces are discontinued. This usually fixes the leak without touching the glass. Call (877) 752-4194 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
It affects clearance, framing, and permit path. Many of these 1940s-to-1960s bathrooms weren’t framed square, so we often refasten and shim the rough opening before the Mr-Glass unit goes in. Because Broadmoor is unincorporated, the work is reviewed by San Mateo County Building & Planning rather than Daly City’s department, which can add a few days to the schedule. We handle the permit path as part of the job.
Yes, and in Broadmoor we expect to find it. The fog-belt damp on these stucco walls means moisture intrusion behind exterior cladding is one of the most common hidden findings on any bath remodel here. We remove the damaged framing, dry everything out, and reframe with pressure-treated or properly flashed materials before the new Mr-Glass enclosure goes in. It adds cost, but ignoring it would fail a county inspection.
No. Milpitas Construction is an independent Mr-Glass service provider. We install and service Mr-Glass products and source OEM parts, but we are not authorized, sponsored, or warranty-endorsed by Mr-Glass. We tell every Broadmoor homeowner that up front because it affects how you weigh your options.
In Broadmoor, expect to pay $3,500 to $10,000 depending on whether the existing tub area needs reframing, drain relocation, or county-required upgrades. The fog-belt moisture often adds a wall-cavity repair step that drier climates don’t hit as often. Call (877) 752-4194 for a written, line-item quote – estimates are free.
