Mr-Glass Construction in Lompico, CA | Toolbox Contractors
We’re Toolbox Contractors, and we provide independent Mr-Glass in Brookdale and across Lompico, CA 95005. The one thing that makes our Mr-Glass work different here is that we already know the county’s geologic review and WUI clearance rules before we touch your shower enclosure. Norm Castellano runs our crew, and after dealing with Lompico’s sloped lots and older cabins, we understand that what looks like a simple glass swap can turn into a framing and drainage conversation fast. Call (855) 382-3257 for a free estimate.
Why Lompico Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Most of Lompico’s houses sit on steep, wooded parcels. The bathrooms in these older cabins were rarely framed square, and the humidity from redwood shade means hardware corrodes faster than you’d think. We know Mr-Glass repair in Felton and Lompico product lines well enough to know when OEM hardware is still available and when a discontinued roller needs a stainless aftermarket replacement that matches the original hole pattern. Norm grew up around half-finished houses in Muscoy and trained at San Bernardino Valley College, so he’s spent two decades untangling exactly this kind of work. The difference with us is that we don’t just swap parts. We check the wall framing, the slab, and the drainage before ordering glass.
We’re also set up as a full-scope general contractor, which matters when a shower leak turns out to be a foundation issue. One crew handles the glass, the framing, the waterproofing, and the permit conversation. For Mr-Glass work specifically, our Mr-Glass sales & service page explains how we source parts and handle installs across the Santa Cruz Mountains.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Lompico
- Roller and track corrosion on sliding shower doors. Lompico’s shaded lots and under-ventilated cabins hold moisture against metal hardware. We’ve pulled apart tracks off Lompico Road where the original rollers had seized from years of condensation and redwood-litter damp. We replace with OEM where it’s still produced, and marine-grade stainless aftermarket when it’s not.
- Glass panel seal failure and edge chipping. Settling foundations are common here because so many cabins were built on cut-and-fill slopes. When the wall moves even a quarter inch, a semi-frameless Mr-Glass enclosure goes out of plumb, the silicone tears, and edges start chipping against the track. We re-square the opening before installing new panels.
- Water damage behind fixed panels. A fixed Mr-Glass panel that loses its silicone bead in a wet-wall shower will quietly leak into the wall cavity for months before you see it. We inspect the waterproofing and the framing when we pull an old panel, and we don’t seal over rot.
- Mirror desilvering at edges. In older Lompico cabins without proper insulation, seasonal condensation attacks mirror edges first. Mr-Glass mirrored wardrobe doors in unheated bedrooms show silver loss and black edge staining. We service and replace those doors, matching the original track profile.
- Out-of-plumb enclosures from non-permitted prior remodels. Lompico has plenty of owner-built bathrooms that never went through county review. When the shower opening is off by an inch, a new Mr-Glass door won’t hang right. We correct the rough opening first, then order glass that fits the actual dimensions.
Mr-Glass Service in Lompico: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Because Lompico is unincorporated and many hillside parcels sit inside county geologic review zones, a straightforward shower enclosure replacement can trigger a slope-stability check if the bathroom sits on a cut-and-fill foundation. That’s checkable fact, not a cautionary guess. We’ve worked bathrooms off Lompico Road and around the wooded parcels east of town where the floor slab has crept downhill enough to change the shower opening by half an inch over a decade. Before we order Mr-Glass panels, we verify the wall framing is plumb and the slab is stable. No neighboring town with flat, incorporated lots faces this same pre-install scrutiny. When we find a wall that has moved, we fix it first, then install glass that will stay sealed for years instead of months.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Lompico
We service the full Mr-Glass line we see across Lompico’s cabins and newer rebuilds: frameless sliding shower doors with standard 3/8-inch glass, custom semi-frameless enclosures with 1/4-inch tempered panels, fixed glass for tub-to-shower conversions, and mirrored wardrobe doors. Our parts approach is simple. We use OEM Mr-Glass hardware wherever the original profile is still being manufactured, and we keep a small stock of common rollers, hinges, and seals for same-week turnarounds in Lompico. When OEM parts are discontinued, we switch to aftermarket stainless or brass components that match glass thickness and hole patterns exactly. We recommend repair when the glass and frame are structurally sound, and we recommend replacement only when there’s chipping, compromised tempered edges, or a chronically out-of-square opening.

What drives the cost in Lompico more than the glass itself is the prep work. If the floor has settled or the walls are out of plumb, we have to correct that before installing glass, and that labor is part of the estimate. Our free estimate includes a look at the framing, slab, drainage, and rough opening, then a written line-item quote. Call (855) 382-3257 to schedule yours.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Lompico
Usually not, if you’re replacing the enclosure in the same footprint without moving walls or plumbing. But because Lompico is unincorporated and some parcels fall under county geologic review, a replacement that changes the shower drain or wet-wall framing can trigger a permit and possibly a slope-stability check. We handle that determination as part of the estimate. Call (855) 382-3257 and we’ll check your parcel’s status before you commit.
The humidity in Lompico’s redwood-shaded cabins and the poor ventilation in older mountain bathrooms mean metal rollers sit in damp air far more than they would in a flat, sunnier neighborhood. Add the fact that many shower enclosures here are slightly out of square from foundation settling, and the rollers bind as they roll, which accelerates wear. We replace with OEM where available and upgrade to stainless aftermarket where it makes sense.
Yes, but we won’t install glass on a floor that is still moving. We verify plumb and level first, correct the rough opening if needed, and then install the enclosure. Glass hung on an out-of-square opening will chip, leak, and fail early. Call (855) 382-3257 and we’ll check the slab before ordering panels.
A tub-to-shower conversion removes the existing tub and installs a shower pan or tiled floor in the same footprint, usually with a fixed Mr-Glass in Mount Hermon panel or a sliding door. A walk-in shower installation is a full shower build, often with a larger footprint, curbless entry, and frameless glass on three sides. The conversion is usually faster and cheaper because the drain stays put. We help you decide which fits your cabin’s layout and your county review status.
Yes. We see mirror desilvering along the edges in unheated and under-insulated cabins where condensation sits on the glass all winter. We service tracks, rollers, and hinges, and we replace door panels when the silver loss has spread too far to repair. Bring us the door size and track type, and we’ll match it.
