Mr-Glass Construction in Irving, TX | Penhallow Remodeling Dallas
We provide independent Mr-Glass shower enclosure and tub door service across Irving, from Hospital District slab homes to Del Rancho conversions. The thing that makes our Mr-Glass work different here is simple: we know when a shower leak is actually the 1960s cast-iron drain under your concrete slab, not the glass. That double diagnosis saves Irving homeowners from paying for a re-glaze that would have failed anyway. Call (940) 204-5368 for a free estimate.
Why Irving Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Trevor Nash, our owner, trained at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and has spent years pulling apart failed enclosures and re-installing them so they hold. He started with framing at fourteen and never really stopped. In Irving, that experience matters because most Mr-Glass work here happens in homes built between 1965 and 1985, where nothing is level, nothing is square, and the slab has been moving for forty years. We’re not a manufacturer-authorized shop. We’re an independent service provider that works on Mr-Glass products because Irving homeowners have them, and because the hardware is good enough to repair rather than replace, most of the time.
We carry Mr-Glass rollers, hinges, seals, and towel bars that match the factory hole patterns and glass thickness. When a part is discontinued, we source exact-dimension aftermarket replacements from our local glass supplier in the Dallas area. Every tech arrives background-checked and in uniform, and we give you a written price before any work starts. The number you see is the number on the invoice.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Irving
- Sliding tub doors binding or popping off their rollers. Irving’s expansive clay soils heave and settle with the seasons, and a slab that shifts a quarter inch can torque a Mr-Glass bypass track until the lower rollers bind. On 1960s brick veneer homes, we see this constantly. We re-level the track with shims that account for future movement, not just today’s reading.
- Corroded aluminum frames and warped bottom sweeps. Original cast-iron waste lines in Hospital District and Del Rancho homes corrode from the inside and leak slowly under the slab. That moisture wicks up through the floor and eats at the aluminum frame of a Mr-Glass enclosure. We fix the frame and tell you honestly when the real problem is plumbing.
- Etched lower glass panels and seized pivot hinges. Irving’s municipal water runs hard, and the humidity in a Texas summer bathroom does the rest. Mineral deposits etch the glass near the curb, and the adjustment screws on Mr-Glass pivot hinges seize up. We can often free and re-set them, but etching is permanent. That’s a replacement conversation, not a repair.
- Cracked tempered glass at corner notches. DIY installs on post-tension slabs rarely account for seasonal movement. Without a level curb and proper clearance, Mr-Glass panels develop stress cracks at the corner notches within a year or two. We see this most on Mr-Glass Neo-Angle units where someone cut corners on the curb.
- Water wicking under a frameless panel base. When a slab heaves, a shower curb cracks. The lower hinge plate on a Mr-Glass ClearShield frameless panel pulls out of the tile, and water finds the gap. We re-level the curb with a metal pan liner and re-drill into fresh blocking, reusing the original glass and hardware whenever possible.
Mr-Glass Service in Irving: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Irving’s Hospital District and Del Rancho are packed with 1960s slab-on-grade homes where original cast-iron waste lines have been corroding from the inside for half a century. That’s not a theory. It’s what we find when a Mr-Glass shower enclosure starts leaking at the base and the homeowner assumes it’s a seal failure. Here’s the double diagnosis: the slab is moving because of North Texas clay, and the cast-iron drain under it is weeping because it’s rusted through from the inside out. Those two problems mimic each other. A leak at the curb could be either one, or both. In newer areas like Las Colinas or Coppell, you rarely see the cast-iron issue because the homes are newer and the plumbing is PVC. In Irving’s older neighborhoods, we start with a plumber’s camera more often than we start with a glass cutter. If we re-glaze a Mr-Glass enclosure over a leaking drain, the fix fails in weeks. That’s the Irving-specific reality most glass companies miss.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Irving
We work on the Mr-Glass lines most common in Irving homes: the ClearShield Frameless Series, Neo-Angle Shower Enclosures, Sliding Tub Doors in bypass style, and Semi-Frameless Pivot Doors. When replacing hardware, we use genuine Mr-Glass rollers, hinges, and towel bars because the factory hole patterns and glass thickness don’t forgive substitutions. For obsolete trim and sweep profiles no longer made, we match exact dimensions through our local Dallas glass supplier. We stock common profiles for fast Irving turnaround, but we’ll tell you straight when a 40-year-old frame with corroded aluminum is better off replaced than patched. Re-glazing a rotted frame on a heaving slab is wasting your money.
This approach carries through the services we emphasize in Irving: frameless glass shower enclosures, tub-to-shower conversions, and walk-in shower installation. Learn more about our broader Mr-Glass sales & service.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Irving
Yes, but only after the drain condition is checked. In Hospital District and Del Rancho, we often camera the line first because a leaking cast-iron drain under the slab will ruin a new enclosure in months. If the drain is sound, we proceed with the install. If it’s not, the plumbing work comes first. Call (940) 204-5368 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
We level the curb or track with shims and sometimes a metal pan liner, accounting for ongoing soil movement instead of assuming the slab has settled for good. Irving’s clay doesn’t stop moving; it moves less with proper moisture control. We build the Mr-Glass install to tolerate that.
We replace rollers, seals, and hinges on their own when the frame is still square and the glass is clear. If the aluminum frame is corroded from years of slab moisture or the curb isn’t level, a full replacement is usually the honest call. We’ll show you exactly why before you spend a dollar.
Yes, and we do this regularly in Irving’s low-rise apartment conversions. Wood subfloor requires rebuilding the curb and waterproofing the floor before any Mr-Glass panel goes up. The framing and sealing work is where the job succeeds or fails. Call (940) 204-5368 to have us look at the space – the estimate is free.
The tempered glass itself is rated for impact and wind pressure far beyond what Irving storms deliver against an interior wall. The weak points are the seals and hinges, which Dallas wind-load codes and our install methods address. On exterior-wall bathrooms, we also check the framing behind the tile because wind-driven rain finds any gap.
