Mr-Glass Construction in Boerne, TX | Mason Remodeling Co San Antonio
We’re an independent construction firm providing Mr-Glass service across Boerne, from window replacement to frameless shower enclosures and tub-to-shower conversions. The one thing that makes our Mr-Glass work here different is simple: we’ve spent years solving the failures that Boerne’s limestone settlement, hard water, and intense sun create in glass products that were never designed for them.

Why Boerne Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Mr-Glass products show up in a lot of Boerne homes – particularly on the custom builds pushing into the Hill Country’s rocky lots and the 1980s-2000s ranch-style houses getting updated. We’ve installed and repaired Mr-Glass sliding patio doors, vinyl picture windows, aluminum single-hung units, and frameless shower enclosures across this area, and we know which components fail first when a house sits on shallow limestone. Isaac Pruett, our owner, learned construction fundamentals at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and has spent two decades on job sites across the Southwest. Since 2004, our crew has worked on San Antonio-area projects, and we handle Mr-Glass products as what we are: experienced independent installers and repair technicians, not a manufacturer-authorized dealer. That independence means we recommend what actually works for your home’s conditions, not what a brand program tells us to push.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Boerne
These are the five Mr-Glass failures we see most often in Boerne, and each one has a local cause behind it:
- Sagging or sticking Mr-Glass 7000 Series sliding patio doors. Boerne homes settle into shallow limestone, which throws door tracks out of square by a quarter-inch or more. The panel drags, the rollers grind down, and eventually the door won’t open without a shoulder to it. We shim, re-anchor, and replace worn rollers with sealed-bearing aftermarket units that handle Hill Country dust better than the originals.
- Failed seals in insulated Mr-Glass window units. Boerne’s winter-to-summer temperature swings run 40 degrees or more, and the UV here is relentless. Sealant breaks down, argon escapes, and you get fog between the panes. We replace the insulated glass unit itself when the frame is still square, which costs far less than a full window swap.
- Hard water scaling etched into Mr-Glass frameless shower enclosures. Homes on untreated Hill Country well water get mineral deposits that eventually etch the glass permanently. If the etching is superficial, we can restore it; if it’s deep, we’ll tell you honestly that replacement glass is the only real fix.
- Warped vinyl frames on west-facing Mr-Glass windows. Boerne’s afternoon sun in July sits hard on west elevations. Vinyl frames that bake all day can warp enough that the sash won’t latch tightly. We swap warped sashes or full frames depending on how far the distortion has gone.
- Twisted Mr-Glass shower enclosure frames from racked walls. In older Boerne homes, especially the ranch-style builds from the 80s and 90s, foundation movement racks the walls and pulls shower frames out of square. Glass panels then bind or leak at the corners. The fix starts with the frame, not the glass.
Mr-Glass Service in Boerne: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Boerne’s city code enforces dark-sky lighting standards on all new construction and remodels, and that requirement quietly shapes which Mr-Glass units actually get installed here. Builders and homeowners navigating the permitting process often need windows and doors with lower-e coatings and specific tinting to keep interior light from spilling outward after dark. A contractor working in San Antonio rarely has to think about this. In Boerne, it’s a code item on the plans. The practical effect for Mr-Glass owners is that units installed under dark-sky requirements tend to be higher-spec glass packages – which is good for UV control and insulation, but it also means replacement glass has to match the original coating and tint. We check the manufacturer’s etch on the corner of an existing pane before quoting, because putting standard clear glass into a dark-sky-compliant opening fails inspection and looks wrong from the street. That’s the kind of detail that comes from working Boerne projects, not reading a spec sheet.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Boerne
Our Boerne crew services the full range of Mr-Glass residential products: the 7000 Series sliding patio doors, vinyl picture windows, aluminum single-hung windows, and frameless shower enclosures for Bathroom Remodeling in Boerne. For units still under a manufacturer warranty, we source genuine Mr-Glass replacement glass, rollers, and seals so homeowners can leverage that coverage. For out-of-warranty hardware, we use high-grade aftermarket rollers and weatherstripping that hold up better against Hill Country dust and heat than the factory components. We stock common roller sizes, weatherstripping profiles, and seal materials locally so most Boerne service calls don’t wait on parts from out of state.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Boerne
Boerne sits on shallow limestone bedrock, so homes settle differently than they do on San Antonio’s looser soils. When a slab moves even a half-inch, a Mr-Glass 7000 Series track racks out of square and the panel binds. San Antonio homes experience more gradual, even settling, so this specific failure is less common there. If your Boerne sliding door is sticking, call (254) 269-5071 and we’ll diagnose whether it’s track alignment, roller wear, or both.
Yes, when the frame is still square and the sash isn’t warped. We replace the insulated glass unit itself, which preserves your existing frame and trim and costs less than a full window replacement. If the frame has racked from limestone settlement or baked in the afternoon sun, replacing only the glass wastes your money, and we’ll show you exactly why before recommending a different fix.
It can. Boerne’s dark-sky code applies to new construction and remodels, and it can require specific lower-e coatings or tinting on glass to limit light spill. We check your project’s permit requirements and match replacement glass to the existing etch and coating, so you don’t fail an inspection for putting clear glass where dark-sky-compliant glass belonged.
If the etching is only on the surface, we can typically restore the glass with professional-grade compounds and methods that home cleaners can’t replicate. Deep etching from years of untreated Hill Country well water is a different story; once minerals cut into the glass itself, replacement panels are the honest fix. Call (254) 269-5071 and we’ll assess it free.
It depends on the installation method. We typically use replacement windows that fit inside the existing frame, which means we don’t disturb the surrounding limestone, stucco, or trim. In cases where the frame itself has failed – warped vinyl or a racked opening – we remove and rebuild the opening carefully, matching the exterior finish as closely as the existing material allows.
