Mr-Glass Construction in Bloomington, CA | Sycamore Contractors
We provide independent Mr-Glass service across Bloomington, CA, handling shower enclosures, sliding glass doors, and replacement windows for homeowners in the 92316 ZIP code. The one thing that makes our Mr-Glass work here different is the county-only permitting path: Bloomington has no city hall, so any glass work that alters an opening on an older home routes through San Bernardino County Land Use Services, and we handle that process from first measurement to final inspection. Call us at (877) 265-6284 to schedule a free estimate.
Why Bloomington Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Nate Calloway, our owner, grew up in Temecula’s Redhawk neighborhood and spent two decades running crews across the Inland Empire before founding Sycamore Contractors. He’s the guy who will tell you straight that a popular glass trend is a bad idea for this climate. We’ve been installing Mr-Glass windows, shower enclosures, and glass doors on Bloomington’s older self-built and tract homes long enough to know how their builder-era frames and rough openings actually behave under county inspection. That matters here, where a 1960s single-story on a large lot doesn’t respond to new glass the way a newer Fontana tract home with Mr-Glass service does.
We’re an independent contractor, not authorized, sponsored, or endorsed by Mr-Glass. We fit their units with factory-spec OEM glass, rollers, seals, and hardware wherever the assembly is still serviceable. When a frame is out of plumb, the glazing predates current safety standards, or the opening has to be brought up to code for county sign-off, we say so and recommend replacement rather than patching a failing unit. That’s the advice-first approach that keeps Bloomington homeowners calling us back for the next project. For full details on how we work with the brand, see our Mr-Glass sales & service page.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Bloomington
- Shower glass walking out of plumb. Builder-era semi-frameless Mr-Glass shower units in 1960s and 1970s Bloomington homes have rollers, seals, and bottom sweeps that harden and crack in the intense dry heat and low rainfall we get here. The glass starts racking, the curb leaks, and the door won’t close square. We replace the factory rollers and sweeps or reframe the enclosure if the opening itself has shifted.
- Fogged dual-pane windows on sun-exposed elevations. Vinyl Mr-Glass window frames and glazing gaskets on south and west walls take Santa Ana wind-driven grit plus relentless UV. The seals fail, condensation forms between the panes, and the frame distorts. We swap in factory-spec insulated glass units and reseal the sash to stop the fog for good.
- Sliding glass door panels that bind and won’t latch. Bloomington’s exposed large lots and neighboring graded dirt send fine dust into Mr-Glass door tracks every time the wind picks up. Rollers flat-spot, panels bind, and the door no longer seals or locks. We clean and rebuild the track, replace the rollers with OEM parts, and adjust the panel so it latches cleanly again.
- Non-tempered glass in unpermitted additions. Older glass in converted garages and self-built Bloomington additions is often single-pane or non-tempered. The moment a San Bernardino County inspector looks at that opening, it fails current safety-glazing rules. We document the as-built condition and replace the glass with code-compliant tempered units before the inspector arrives.
- Curbs and thresholds leaking after years of drought-and-heat cycles. Bloomington’s dry climate is forgiving on moisture but hard on stucco and caulking. Shower curbs and door thresholds sealed years ago crack and pull away. We remove the old seal, repair the curb substrate, and set the Mr-Glass enclosure with proper waterproofing and re-sealed edges.
Mr-Glass Service in Bloomington: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s what a generic Mr-Glass page won’t tell you, and what matters more than any hardware list. Because Bloomington is an unincorporated San Bernardino County island with no city building department, any Mr-Glass window or glass-shower change on a pre-1980 home routes through County Land Use Services. And since so many of these self-built properties carry unpermitted additions, converted garages, and shop buildings, the county often requires legalizing the existing opening before approving new glass. We’ve pulled this process more times than we can count. On a self-built 1960s single-story on a large lot off Cedar Avenue, our crew opened up a converted-garage bath and found a non-tempered single-pane shower surround sitting in a rough opening that was never permitted. We documented the as-built opening, pulled the work through San Bernardino County Land Use Services to legalize the conversion, and set a Mr-Glass frameless enclosure with tempered glass sized to the corrected framing and sealed against the dry-heat curb movement. The homeowner got a county-signed shower that won’t rack out of plumb the next time the Santa Ana winds hit. That’s the Bloomington reality: legalize before you install, or you’ll do it twice in the July heat.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Bloomington
We work on the full Mr-Glass residential line: frameless and semi-frameless shower enclosure units, sliding glass and patio door systems, vinyl-framed single-hung and slider replacement windows, and framed mirror and closet-door glass units. For repair work, we fit factory-spec OEM glass, rollers, seals, and hardware wherever the assembly is still serviceable. We use quality aftermarket hardware only where OEM has been discontinued. Our Bloomington truck stock carries the rollers, sweeps, and glazing gaskets these units most often need, so a shower door or slider repair doesn’t wait on a parts shipment. For panels, tempered glass, and full enclosures, we measure on site and order to spec, with fit confirmation before installation.

AfterMr-Glass Service Pricing in Bloomington

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Bloomington
Yes, and there’s no way around it in Bloomington. Since there’s no city building department, every permit and inspection runs through San Bernardino County Land Use Services. On a straightforward replacement where the opening isn’t changing, the timeline is manageable. On a pre-1980 home with unpermitted work, the county often requires legalizing the existing opening before approving new glass, which adds plan review and inspection time. We handle the paperwork and inspections for you. Call (877) 265-6284 for a realistic timeline on your specific project.
No. Sycamore Contractors is an independent contractor. We are not authorized, sponsored, or endorsed by Mr-Glass. We install and service their products because we know the line well and can get factory-spec parts. Being independent means we spec the right product for your opening, not the one a manufacturer incentive pushes.
We use factory-spec OEM glass, rollers, seals, and hardware wherever the assembly is still serviceable. Aftermarket parts come into play only when OEM has been discontinued. We’ll tell you which applies to your unit before we order anything.
Typical repairs run three to five hours on site. Full replacement work, including demolition, framing correction, and final seal, runs one to two days depending on the opening. If county legalization is required for an unpermitted addition, add plan review and inspection time on top of that. Call (877) 265-6284 and we’ll give you an honest schedule based on what we find during the estimate.
We service their frameless and semi-frameless shower enclosures, sliding glass and patio door systems, vinyl-framed single-hung and slider replacement windows, and framed mirror and closet-door glass units. If you have an older Mr-Glass unit that’s been out of production, we can usually still match the glass and hardware, including Mr-Glass repair in Pedley and surrounding communities. Ask us when you call.
