Mr-Glass Construction in Montclair, CA | Milpitas Construction
We’re Milpitas Construction, an independent General Contractor in Montclair and an independent Mr-Glass service provider working throughout the area. We install, repair, and replace Mr-Glass shower enclosures, sliding doors, and custom glass in tract homes across the 91763 ZIP code. The thing that sets our Montclair work apart is simple: nearly every job here is a retrofit into a 1950s to 1970s bathroom where the walls are out of square and the slab has settled. We template and cut custom glass on site because stock kits don’t fit these rooms. Call (877) 752-4194 for a free estimate.
Why Montclair Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Ken Stafford, our owner, grew up around Bay Area construction and has spent decades fitting glass into homes that weren’t built for modern enclosure systems. That matters in Montclair because the housing stock here skews older and tighter than what you’ll find in the newer Inland Empire tracts to the east. We know what happens when a frameless pivot goes onto a wall that’s off by half an inch. We’ve fixed the leaks, re-hung the doors, and replaced the rollers that seized up from hard Inland Empire water. We’re not a Mr-Glass dealer or manufacturer affiliate. We’re a full-scope general contractor who happens to do Mr-Glass enclosure work the right way, because we’ve seen what happens when it’s done wrong. You get one accountable team for the whole project, not a revolving door of specialists. Mr-Glass sales & service is one of the lines we carry, but our reputation in Montclair rests on how the glass fits, seals, and swings ten years later.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Montclair
- Sagging frameless pivots striking the jamb. The original walls in Montclair’s postwar tract homes are rarely plumb. Stock hinge spacing assumes a square opening. When the opening isn’t square, the door sags and the edge clips the jamb or the curb. We re-hang with adjustable hinges and custom-cut glass to match the actual opening, not the blueprint assumption.
- Sliding door rollers seized by mineral buildup. Montclair’s water leaves scale. Give a Mr-Glass sliding door a few years of alkaline tap water and the bottom rollers grind to a stop. We replace rollers with OEM Mr-Glass parts when available and set the track so water drains instead of pooling in the roller channel.
- Silicone and gasket failure along shower curbs. Slab-on-grade homes across Montclair shift slightly with the soil. That minor movement can open a hairline gap at the curb, and water tracks behind the glass. We re-flash the curb, re-bed the gasket, and re-seal the run so the enclosure holds up to slab movement.
- Sun-baked etched glass in south- and west-facing bathrooms. Homes on Montclair’s northern edge, closer to the San Gabriel foothills, get intense afternoon sun. Tempered Mr-Glass panels in south- or west-facing bathrooms show hard-water etching and degraded seals faster than shaded installs. We can re-polish, reseal, or replace the panel depending on how far the damage has gone.
- Out-of-square openings on garage-to-ADU conversions. Montclair’s built-out lots mean many bathroom remodels are tied to ADU or garage conversion work. We regularly find original shower openings off by half an inch or more. A stock Mr-Glass kit won’t hang right in those conditions. We template, cut, and fit custom glass on site.
Mr-Glass Service in Montclair: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Montclair is built out inside its 91763 boundaries. That’s not a throwaway line, it’s the defining fact of construction here. Glass shower and door enclosures in Montclair are almost always retrofit jobs into existing tract-home bathrooms, not new-build installs into a framed opening that’s square and level. We template and cut custom Mr-Glass glass on site because a stock panel kit assumes the walls are where the drawings say they are. They aren’t. Off the Holt Blvd corridor and through the single-story stucco neighborhoods south of the 10, the homes date from roughly the 1950s into the 1970s. Original studs have settled. Slab curbs sit proud. Door openings have shifted. That’s the opposite of greenfield work further east in the Inland Empire, where Mr-Glass service in Ontario and other areas gets a clean, plumb opening from the framer. In Montclair, the glass has to fit what’s actually there. That’s why our crew measures every opening twice and cuts on site. On a garage-to-ADU and bathroom gut in a single-story stucco home off Holt, we found the original shower opening out of square by nearly half an inch and the slab curb slightly proud. A stock frameless kit would have hung crooked and leaked at the pivot. We templated the opening, cut a custom frameless enclosure with adjustable OEM-style hinges, re-flashed the curb, and the door now swings clear without striking the jamb.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Montclair
We work on the full Mr-Glass line: the Frameless Shower Enclosure in standard and custom-cut glass, the Sliding Shower Door series, the Semi-Frameless Pivot Shower Door, and the Custom Mirror & Glass Door products. Our parts approach is straightforward. We source OEM Mr-Glass hinges, rollers, and gaskets when the original hardware still has life in it. When the hardware is discontinued or the glass has been re-cut so many times that a rebuild makes more sense, we say so plainly and spec quality aftermarket tempered glass with marine-grade hardware. We stock common Mr-Glass roller sizes, hinge shims, and gasket profiles locally so Montclair turnaround doesn’t stall waiting on a parts shipment. If a full re-hang is the cheaper long-term call, we’ll tell you that before you spend money chasing discontinued pieces.

Here’s what typical Mr-Glass enclosure and shower work runs in Montclair. These are line-item ranges for the work, not buried bid numbers.

What drives the cost in Montclair is the opening itself. If the walls are out of square and we’re templating custom glass, that’s more labor than a stock panel drop-in. If the curb needs re-flashing or the roller track needs rebuilding, that’s added work. A free estimate from us includes measuring the opening, checking the plumb, and a written line-item quote. Call (877) 752-4194 for an exact number. Estimates don’t cost you anything.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Montclair
Yes, and that’s most of what we do in Montclair. We template the actual opening and cut custom glass to match it, rather than forcing a stock kit onto an out-of-square wall. The hinges get adjusted to the real geometry, not the factory spacing. Call (877) 752-4194 and we’ll come measure it for free.
Most grinding Mr-Glass sliders in Montclair have seized rollers from mineral buildup in the tap water. If the track and glass are still sound, replacing the rollers with OEM parts is usually the cheaper fix. If the track is pitted or the glass is etched from years of hard water, a full replacement may actually cost less over time. We’ll tell you which way to go. Call (877) 752-4194 for an assessment.
In most cases, yes, if you’re moving plumbing or changing the drain configuration. Montclair’s planning and building rules apply to plumbing relocations, and a tub-to-shower conversion usually involves drain work. We pull permits and pass inspections as part of the project, so you don’t have to manage that yourself.
A full bathroom remodel with a new Mr-Glass enclosure typically lands between $9,000 and $28,000 in Montclair, depending on the size of the room, whether you’re moving plumbing, and how much custom glass cutting the opening requires. A smaller bath remodel starts around $5,000. Call (877) 752-4194 for a written quote, free.
Yes, if it’s installed with the right seals and hardware for this climate. Montclair’s heat and hard water are harder on glass than most people expect. The right gaskets, a sealed curb, and roller tracks that drain properly make the difference. We spec the enclosure for the conditions, not just the look.
