Mr-Glass Construction in San Antonio Heights, CA | Stallion Contractors
We provide independent Mr-Glass service across San Antonio Heights, covering frameless shower enclosures, semi-frameless doors, custom mirrors, and glass shelving. The one thing that makes our Mr-Glass work different here is simple: we plan every glass install around the foothill realities of San Antonio Heights, from hard well water to wildfire code. If your Mr-Glass shower is etched, sagging, or leaking, call (855) 600-3192 and we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s worth repairing or replacing.
We’re Stallion Contractors, a licensed general contractor serving San Antonio Heights and the surrounding Inland Empire. Ruben Montoya leads our team, and he grew up in Colton, not far from Pepper Avenue, where the Inland Empire sun and soil taught him early what happens to materials that aren’t chosen for local conditions. We handle full-scope remodeling, and Mr-Glass glass work sits naturally inside that: showers, tub-to-shower conversions, mirror walls, and glass shelving for homes that often need structural upgrades at the same time.
Why San Antonio Heights Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Because we treat glass as part of the whole house, not a standalone install. A shower enclosure in a 1960s San Antonio Heights ranch on a sloped lot behaves differently than the same enclosure in a flat-lot tract home two towns over. The frame shifts, the hinges bind, the seals crack. When we install Mr-Glass, we account for that.
We source OEM Mr-Glass hardware and glass when it’s available, and for discontinued models we use aftermarket components that meet or exceed the original spec. That matters in San Antonio Heights, where many of these mid-century and custom homes have enclosures that are 15 to 30 years old and no longer in production. We don’t upsell a full replacement when a hinge and seal rebuild will get you another decade. We also don’t waste your time repairing glass that’s etched beyond recovery. One contractor, every trade. That’s how Ruben built the company, and it’s how we work in San Antonio Heights.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in San Antonio Heights
- Frame corrosion and seal failure in semi-frameless enclosures. Many San Antonio Heights homes run on private wells. The mineral content in that water attacks aluminum frames and eats at sealant beads faster than municipal water does. We regularly replace corroded bottom tracks and reseal enclosures before the water gets into the wall cavity and framing.
- Hard water etching and permanent glass staining. Well water in the foothills leaves silica and calcium deposits that bake onto glass under the inland sun. Once etching sets in, no amount of cleaning brings clarity back. We can tell you in five minutes whether your glass is cleanable or replacement territory.
- Hinge and roller wear from hillside settling. San Antonio Heights sits on sloped, geologically active foothill terrain. Foundations move seasonally, and that movement transfers to shower door hinges and rollers. A door that swings or sags two years after a perfect install isn’t a bad install. It’s the hill settling, and we know how to shim, reinforce, and rehang so the door tracks true again.
- Thermal stress cracks in unshaded glass. Hot inland summers and Santa Ana events push rapid temperature swings. A west-facing bathroom with a large Mr-Glass panel bakes all afternoon, then cools fast at sunset. That’s a classic thermal stress crack pattern. We see it often in the foothill estates with big glass and little shade.
- Leaks from improperly flashed curbs on custom shower bases. The older custom homes in San Antonio Heights often have site-built shower pans. When those pans shift or crack, water travels and the Mr-Glass enclosure gets blamed. We trace the water, not just the glass.
Mr-Glass Service in San Antonio Heights: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something most glass companies won’t tell you because they don’t work here day after day. San Antonio Heights sits in a high fire-hazard severity zone on the wildland-urban interface. That classification reaches into bathrooms. When you pull a remodel permit through San Bernardino County, exterior material choices, venting, and even some interior assemblies get checked against wildfire code requirements. For Mr-Glass owners, that means a shower enclosure replacement can trigger review alongside ember-resistant vent upgrades or defensible-space work. We’ve coordinated glass installs with county building review on Euclid Avenue-area estates where a simple tub-to-shower conversion turned into a packaged permit that included Class A roof venting. That’s not something a generic glass shop dealing with city permits in Rancho Cucamonga or Upland would ever run into. San Antonio Heights is unincorporated land, and county rules are a different animal.
Ruben learned this early. His foundation in construction came from San Bernardino Valley College, where the hands-on programs put him on job sites before he ever had a business card. Two-plus decades later, he still inspects the building envelope before quoting a glass job. Good work doesn’t need a sales pitch. It needs the right materials and someone who knows what they’re doing.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in San Antonio Heights
We service the full Mr-Glass residential lineup: frameless shower enclosures, semi-frameless shower doors, custom mirrors, and glass shelving systems. Frameless enclosures make up most of our San Antonio Heights work because this market builds custom showers, not tract baths. We keep OEM hinges, clamps, u-channels, and seals on hand for current models, and we keep a running list of aftermarket suppliers for older Mr-Glass lines that are out of production.
That means we can usually turn around a hardware repair without waiting on a two-week manufacturer order. For full glass replacement, we cut locally to your opening, whether you’re in a 91784 hillside custom or a mid-century ranch on a tree-covered parcel off the foothill bench roads.

AfterMr-Glass Service Pricing in San Antonio Heights
What you pay comes down to three things: the size and configuration of your glass, whether the existing hardware is salvageable or needs full replacement, and whether county review adds anything to the permit path. Here are the line-item ranges we quote most often for Mr-Glass shower work in this market:
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|

| Tub-to-Shower Conversion | $3,500 – $10,000 |
| Shower Replacement | $3,000 – $8,500 |
The lower end covers a straightforward glass-and-hardware swap in a standard opening. The upper end covers custom sloped-ceiling work, hillside structural shimming, or a tub-to-shower conversion that requires new waterproofing and a site-built pan. Our free estimate gives you a written line-item quote so you see exactly what’s included and what drives the number. Call (855) 600-3192 to schedule yours. We’ll walk your space, check the water, check the slope, and tell you what your Mr-Glass actually needs.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in San Antonio Heights
Usually not for a like-for-like glass and hardware swap, because that’s considered a finish replacement. But any time the project changes plumbing, drain location, waterproofing, or structural framing, San Bernardino County wants a permit. San Antonio Heights has no city hall; every building review goes through the county, and that review can pull in wildfire code requirements if the work touches exterior venting or assemblies. We tell you upfront whether your job triggers a permit, and we handle the paperwork if it does. Call (855) 600-3192 and we’ll check your specific scope before you spend a dollar.
Well water in San Antonio Heights is mineral-heavy, and those minerals do two things: they corrode aluminum frames and hardware, and they etch glass if the water spots aren’t wiped down regularly. Once etching digs in, the glass is permanently clouded. We install treated glass options and corrosion-resistant hardware to buy time, and we can tell you honestly whether your current glass is cleanable or already past saving.
Yes, but it’s not a stock-cut job. Sloped ceilings and out-of-level walls on San Antonio Heights hillside parcels mean every glass panel gets measured to the actual opening, not the blueprint. We’ve installed frameless enclosures in mid-century hillside homes where the ceiling pours down four inches across the shower width. The enclosure gets custom-cut and the hardware gets set to accommodate the pitch. Call (855) 600-3192 for a measure-and-quote; our estimates are free.
Tempered glass is standard in all our Mr-Glass shower work, and in wildfire-conscious San Antonio Heights we often pair it with fire-rated seals and hardware where county review requires. Tempered glass shatters into small pieces rather than dangerous shards, and fire-rated gaskets add a layer of protection in the wildland-urban interface. We also coordinate with your county permit package so the shower work and any ember-resistant venting or exterior upgrades move through review together.
Most standard replacements run two to three days once the glass is cut: one day for demolition and prep, one for install and waterproofing checks, one for hardware adjustment and seal cure. Custom hillside work or tub-to-shower conversions can run a week or more if structural shimming or new pans are involved. Call (855) 600-3192 and we’ll give you a straight timeframe based on your opening.
