Mr-Glass Construction in Cambrian Park, CA | Timberline Contractors
We’re an independent contractor that installs and services Mr-Glass shower enclosures across Cambrian Park, and the quick answer is this: we handle everything from full frameless walk-in conversions to roller and hinge repairs on existing Mr-Glass doors, with pricing for a tub-to-shower conversion typically running $3,500 – $10,000 and a full walk-in install between $4,500 – $12,000. The thing that makes our Mr-Glass work different in Cambrian Park specifically is that we plan every install around Santa Clara County’s unincorporated building review, not City of San Jose permitting, so the glass, waterproofing, and framing all get specified correctly the first time. Nelson Fung and the Timberline crew know these 1950s – 70s ranch bathrooms down to the slab. Call (866) 253-5808 for a free estimate.
Why Cambrian Park Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
We’ve worked on enough Mr-Glass enclosures in Cambrian Park to know where they fail here. Not in the abstract, not in a showroom, but in actual hall baths off Camden Avenue with original galvanized supply lines and steam that has nowhere to go. Nelson Fung learned the trade formally at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and spent years on remodels before Timberline Contractors, and that background shapes how we approach every Mr-Glass job: we treat the glass as the last thing that goes in, not the first.
We’re not authorized, sponsored, or endorsed by Mr-Glass. That independence matters because we can tell you plainly when an OEM roller is worth the wait or when the right fix is to stop patching a sliding door and re-hang the opening as a frameless fixed panel. We source genuine Mr-Glass sales & service replacement parts when they’re available, and we stock the common rollers, sweeps, and hinges so we’re not waiting on a truck for half the week.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Cambrian Park
- Sliding doors that drag and jump the track. The long dry summers in the Santa Clara Valley put fine grit into everything, and it settles in the bottom track of Mr-Glass bypass doors. Rollers dry out, flat-spot, and then the door starts jumping. We replace worn rollers and realign the track before the glass chips.
- Silicone and sweep failure at the curb letting water onto slab floors. Cambrian Park homes from the 1950s – 70s sit on slab-on-grade, which means there’s no crawlspace to absorb a leak. When the curb seal goes, water puddles on the slab and wicks into drywall. We re-seal with the right product and check what the water already found.
- Hinge sag on frameless pivot doors in older tract homes. Original wall framing in these post-WWII houses settles over decades. That movement loosens glass-to-wall fasteners on Mr-Glass pivot doors, and suddenly the door doesn’t swing square. We refasten into solid blocking, not just the old screw holes.
- Hard-water haze on tempered glass in under-ventilated baths. The small hall baths in these ranch homes trap steam like a lid on a pot. Over years, mineral deposits etch Mr-Glass tempered panels until they look frosted. We replace glass when polishing won’t bring it back, and we talk honestly about whether the enclosure shape is making the problem worse.
- Frameless conversions into bathrooms that were never framed for them. Grabbing a frameless Mr-Glass enclosure and hanging it on 60-year-old wall framing without checking what’s behind the tile is a shortcut we refuse to take. We inspect the studs, the waterproofing, and the pan before anything gets ordered.
Mr-Glass Service in Cambrian Park: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the information gain, the thing no generic Mr-Glass page will tell you: because Cambrian Park is unincorporated Santa Clara County, a bathroom that trades a tub for a walk-in shower and moves plumbing or glass into a new wall often needs County of Santa Clara building review and inspection rather than City of San Jose sign-off. That’s not a technicality. County reviewers care about the enclosure’s tempered-glass labeling and waterproofing detail in a way that changes what we specify for Mr-Glass installs here. A homeowner off Union Avenue who assumes a shower swap is just a plumbing permit finds out the hard way that the glass panel, the pan liner, and the curb all get looked at. We pull the permits, we pass the inspections, and we build the waterproofing right the first time so the county’s involvement is a formality, not a surprise. Add the slab-on-grade reality, the original copper or galvanized plumbing, and the aluminum wiring from the 1960s – 70s that often triggers a service-panel upgrade on any real remodel, and you start to see why a Mr-Glass enclosure in Cambrian Park isn’t the same job as one two ZIP codes over.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Cambrian Park
We install and repair the full Mr-Glass line we see in Cambrian Park homes: frameless sliding shower door systems in the barn-door bypass style, semi-frameless pivot doors with tempered glass, neo-angle and corner enclosures for the tight 5-foot baths, and custom frameless fixed-panel and hinged enclosures for larger master baths. On repairs we source OEM Mr-Glass rollers, hinges, sweeps, and seals when the manufacturer still supplies them. If a part is discontinued, we switch to quality aftermarket hardware and tell you why. And if your glass itself is hazed past saving or the wall framing behind the door is shot, we’ll say so instead of selling you a part that buys six months.

AfterMr-Glass Service Pricing in Cambrian Park
What you’ll pay depends on whether we’re repairing hardware, replacing glass, or rebuilding the shower entirely. Here are the numbers we quote across Cambrian Park:
| Mr-Glass Service | Typical Cambrian Park Range |

A free estimate from us includes a look at the framing, the waterproofing, and the plumbing, not just a price for the door. Call (866) 253-5808 to schedule one.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Cambrian Park
Yes, in most cases. Because Cambrian Park is unincorporated Santa Clara County, any tub-to-shower conversion that moves plumbing, alters walls, or changes the drain location requires County of Santa Clara building review and inspection, not City of San Jose sign-off. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and make sure the tempered-glass labeling and waterproofing details match what county reviewers look for. Call (866) 253-5808 and we’ll tell you during the free estimate exactly what your specific project will trigger.
Almost always it’s worn rollers loaded with Valley dust and grit, plus a bottom track that’s drifted out of alignment over years of use. The dry Cambrian Park summers bake the roller grease until the wheels flat-spot, and then the door rides up and off. We replace the rollers, realign the track, and if the door is beyond saving we’ll show you the frameless option and quote it straight. Call (866) 253-5808 for a repair estimate.
It depends on the wall framing and the size of the opening, not just the glass. Many 1960s Cambrian Park hall baths have studs that have settled, original tile over standard drywall, and a slab floor with no pan liner. We measure, inspect the framing, and tell you honestly whether a frameless Mr-Glass enclosure works as-is or needs blocking, waterproofing, or a full rebuild first. Call (866) 253-5808 to have us look.
We first try polishing with a professional-grade compound that removes mineral film without scratching the temper. If the haze has etched into the glass over years, polishing won’t fix it, and we replace the panel. The real conversation is about ventilation: those small Cambrian Park baths trap steam and the problem comes back unless the enclosure shape and airflow change. Call (866) 253-5808 and we’ll assess your glass and your bathroom.
A tub-to-shower conversion typically runs $3,500 – $10,000 and a walk-in shower installation $4,500 – $12,000 in Cambrian Park. The spread comes down to whether we’re reusing existing plumbing or moving drains, whether the slab needs a new pan liner, and whether your electrical panel needs an upgrade because the county won’t sign off otherwise. Our estimates are free and line-itemed, so you see exactly where the money goes. Call (866) 253-5808 for a fixed quote.

On a 1962 ranch off the Los Gatos Creek corridor near Camden Avenue, our crew tore out a tub surround and set a Mr-Glass frameless fixed-panel and hinged enclosure over a new curb. The original slab had no pan liner, so we rebuilt the waterproofing before the glass went in. The old bypass door’s rollers had flat-spotted from years of grit, and we replaced the whole sliding unit with the frameless panel so the small hall bath no longer traps steam against hazed glass. Do it right the first time or explain yourself twice.
