Mr-Glass Construction in Lompico, CA | Viceroy Construction
Viceroy Construction provides independent Mr-Glass window and sliding door service across Lompico, from re-glazing fogged dual-pane units to full frame replacement on canyon homes. The thing that makes our Mr-Glass work different here is scheduling around Lompico’s single-lane switchback driveways, because in this canyon the delivery logistics often take longer than the install itself. We know these products’ failure points in redwood-era cabins and mid-century mountain homes, and we fix them without pushing a full replacement when the frame is still sound. Call (877) 358-6557 to talk through what you’re seeing.
Why Lompico Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
We’ve spent years working on Mr-Glass sliders and windows in Santa Cruz Mountain homes, which means we know where these units fail in canyon conditions before we even arrive. Neil Drummond, our owner, grew up in the Saratoga foothills and trained in the building trades program at West Valley College, where framing and structural coursework gave him a foundation he still leans on when a window opening in a 1960s Lompico cabin turns out to be out of square by three-quarters of an inch. We’re not an authorized Mr-Glass dealer. We’re an independent service provider, and that independence means we repair what’s repairable instead of steering you toward a new unit because it pads an invoice. Our Mr-Glass sales & service expertise covers OEM-compatible glazing units, rollers, and seals, and we stock the common hardware so a Lompico call doesn’t turn into a two-week parts wait. The details you don’t see are the ones that matter most.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Lompico
- Failed perimeter seals on vinyl sliders and single-hungs. Lompico’s heavy winter rain finds every gap. When the perimeter seal on a Mr-Glass vinyl slider lets go, water works into the redwood wall cavity behind the frame, and by the time you see the stain on the interior drywall, the sill plate has been wet for months. We pull the unit, inspect the opening, re-seal, and re-glaze when the frame is sound.
- Fogging in older dual-pane insulated glass. Long dry summers followed by wet winters cycle the sealant in Mr-Glass dual-pane units through constant expansion and contraction. The seal eventually fails, argon or air leaks out, and the glass fogs. We replace the glazing unit itself, not the whole window, unless the frame has corroded beyond saving.
- Aluminum slider door tracks binding and corroding. Many Lompico homes sit on graded canyon slopes where drainage is marginal at best. Water and redwood debris collect in the track of a Mr-Glass aluminum slider, the rollers eat the corrosion, and the door starts to grind. We replace rollers, clean and re-lubricate the track, and correct the drainage issue where it’s causing the problem.
- Cracked gaskets and weatherstripping around glass frames. In a WUI zone, a degraded gasket isn’t just an energy loss. It’s an ember intrusion point on a vent-adjacent opening. On Lompico homes we check gaskets and weatherstripping on every Mr-Glass unit we touch and replace anything that’s hardened or cracked.
- Out-of-square frames on older cabins. Lompico’s redwood-era cabins have settled. A Mr-Glass window that fit fine in 1985 may be racked now, which strains the glass and causes seal failure. We re-shim and re-square the frame before installing the glazing unit so the new hardware isn’t fighting the structure.
Mr-Glass Service in Lompico: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s what nobody tells you about window work in Lompico: the build itself is the easy part. Lompico is a narrow, steep-walled redwood canyon where many homes sit at the end of single-lane switchback driveways with no turnaround at the top. A Mr-Glass slider or picture window replacement job here is often gated by getting the glazing unit down the canyon and staged, not by the install. Off Park Avenue or up any of the unmarked drives branching off Lompico Road, you’re looking at delivery trucks that can’t make the turn, staging areas that don’t exist, and a second trip that costs as much as the first. We size and schedule deliveries around turnaround limits that a Felton or Boulder Creek job would never hit. That’s the difference between a two-day job and a two-week one. Our Lompico service area coverage is built around these access realities, not around a generic Santa Cruz Mountains envelope.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Lompico
We service the Mr-Glass aluminum sliding glass door series that shows up constantly in mountain-home retrofits, the Mr-Glass single-hung and horizontal slider vinyl window series, and the fixed picture window units that were popular in redwood-era cabin builds. On the parts side, we source OEM Mr-Glass glazing units, rollers, and seals when they’re available and dimensionally correct, and we use quality aftermarket hardware when OEM has been discontinued. We don’t put generic substitutes on structural or weather-seal components. When a frame is sound we repair and re-glaze. When seal failure or corrosion has compromised the frame itself, we tell you plainly and quote replacement. We also handle Mr-Glass service in Brookdale when the same canyon-access constraints apply.

AfterMr-Glass Service Pricing in Lompico
Costs for Mr-Glass work in Lompico depend on whether we’re re-glazing an existing frame, replacing a window, or installing impact-rated units for WUI hardening. Here’s where the common jobs land:
| Service | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Window Replacement | $4,500 – $15,000 |
| Impact Window Installation | $8,000 – $25,000 |
| Bathroom Remodel | $9,000 – $28,000 |
What drives the number in Lompico specifically is access. A window that goes in an hour on a flat lot in Saratoga might need a crane assist or a multi-person hand-carry up a switchback drive off Lompico Road, and that labor is real. Our free estimate includes an on-site look at the current frame, the opening, and the delivery path. Call (877) 358-6557 for an exact quote.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Lompico
Yes, when the frame is sound. We re-glaze Mr-Glass units regularly on Lompico homes, replacing the insulated glass unit, rollers, and weatherstripping while keeping the original frame. If the frame itself has corroded or racked, we’ll tell you it’s time for a replacement. Call (877) 358-6557 and we’ll assess yours.
Lompico’s canyon slopes mean marginal drainage, and water plus redwood debris sits in slider tracks longer than it would on a flat lot in Mr-Glass repair in Felton or Boulder Creek. The aluminum track corrodes, the rollers eat the corrosion, and the door starts binding. We fix the track and correct the drainage where we can.
Yes. Chapter 7A ignition-resistant requirements apply to vent-adjacent openings and window assemblies in Lompico’s wildland-urban interface zones, and a hardened window with intact gaskets and weatherstripping is part of defensible-space compliance. We install impact-rated and ignition-resistant window packages that meet those standards.
The delivery and staging often take longer than the Home Remodeling in Lompico install. Single-lane switchback driveways with no turnarounds mean we plan every glazing unit delivery as a single canyon run. On a recent redwood-era cabin off a narrow switchback drive, we re-glazed the sound frames, replaced rollers and weatherstripping, re-sealed the perimeters, and staged the replacement delivery once, because a second trip wasn’t possible. Call (877) 358-6557 and we’ll walk your access before we commit to a schedule.
Fogged dual-pane glass means the seal has failed, and that’s a glazing unit replacement, not a repair. We replace just the insulated glass unit when the frame is sound, which costs far less than a full window replacement. Call (877) 358-6557 for a quote on your specific unit.
