Mr-Glass Construction in Miami, FL | Penhallow Remodeling Miami
We provide independent Mr-Glass window, door, and glass enclosure service across Miami, including impact window installation, window replacement, and frameless shower enclosures. We’re not a manufacturer-authorized dealer, and we don’t pretend to be. What we are is a local crew that works on Mr-Glass units in Miami’s concrete block homes and high-rise condos every week, and we know what fails here. Call (850) 988-7559 for a free estimate on any Mr-Glass construction service in Miami.
Why Miami Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
We know Mr-Glass windows and doors the way a mechanic knows a specific engine. Our crews work on Mr-Glass 7700 Series impact windows, 7000 Series single-hungs, 8800 Series casements, and Legacy sliding patio doors in Miami and surrounding cities all year. We’ve replaced broken balance springs in Allapattah CBS homes, re-glazed fogged units in Brickell high-rises, and rebuilt sliding door tracks in Little Havana. Trevor Nash, owner at Penhallow Remodeling Miami, grew up in Los Angeles and trained at LA Trade-Technical College before spending close to three decades on jobsites. He brought that same steady approach here. Give you a number first, then pick up the tools. That’s how we run every Mr-Glass job in Miami.

Common Mr-Glass Construction Problems We Solve in Miami
- Corroded balance springs and tilt mechanisms in Mr-Glass 7700 single-hung windows. Miami’s salt air eats metal. In older CBS homes near the coast, the spiral balances and tilt latches inside 7700 units corrode faster than the glass ever will. We replace them with OEM hardware when available, or Miami-Dade-approved aftermarket balances when the original parts are discontinued.
- Fogged insulated glass units in Mr-Glass 8800 casements. That haze between the panes isn’t dirt. The IG seal failed, and Miami’s 90% humidity plus daily afternoon rain speeds up the fogging. We can replace the glass pack without swapping the whole frame, assuming the frame itself is still sound.
- Binding or jumping Mr-Glass Legacy sliding patio doors. Miami sits on porous limestone. Concrete slabs shift, settle, and crack. When the slab under a sliding door moves even a quarter inch, the track twists and the rollers bind. We realign tracks, replace worn rollers, and when the slab movement is too advanced, we’ll tell you straight that replacement beats another repair.
- Leaking perimeter flashing around Mr-Glass window fins in stucco-clad CBS walls. Concrete block stucco homes in Miami depend on the flashing and sealant line around the window fin to keep water out. When that seal fails, afternoon thunderstorms push water into the wall, and you see efflorescence on the interior drywall. We pull the window, clean the rough opening, and re-flash with materials that hold up under Miami’s rain cycles.
- Hard-to-open Mr-Glass windows in 1950s-70s CBS homes. Older block homes settle differently than wood-frame buildings. Frames get racked. The window still looks fine from the curb, but the sash drags because the opening is no longer square. We fix the alignment or, when the frame is too far gone, replace the unit with an HVHZ-approved Mr-Glass window.
Mr-Glass Service in Miami: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Miami is the only major U.S. city that requires both High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) approval for all impact glazing and a separate Miami-Dade County product control approval. That means a simple Mr-Glass window replacement in a 1972 Little Havana CBS home must carry an HVHZ NOA number and be installed to exact code, or the permit inspection fails. This isn’t a suggestion. It’s the law here. We check the NOA on every Mr-Glass unit before we touch it, and we install to the design pressure the county requires. A Mr-Glass replacement in Broward or Palm Beach follows different rules. In Miami, the wind-load math and the product control paperwork are non-negotiable. That’s why we stock Miami-Dade-compliant mounting clips, stainless fasteners, and approved sealants on our trucks rather than running to a supply house mid-job.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Miami
Our crews work on the Mr-Glass 7700 Series impact windows, 7000 Series single-hung windows, 8800 Series casement windows, and the Legacy sliding glass patio door line. We use OEM Mr-Glass hardware and glass packages whenever the unit is structurally sound and the parts are still available. For older Mr-Glass units where the factory discontinued the part, we source quality aftermarket balances, rollers, and weatherstripping that meet Miami-Dade wind-load requirements. We recommend replacement over repair when the frame or glazing shows advanced corrosion or seal failure that would come back within one Miami storm season. We also install frameless glass shower enclosures, impact windows, and full window replacements. For more on our Mr-Glass coverage, see Mr-Glass sales & service.

AfterMr-Glass Service Pricing in Miami
Pricing depends on the unit, the opening, and what’s behind the stucco. Here are the ranges we quote across Miami:
| Service | Typical Range in Miami |
|---|---|
| Impact Window Installation | $9,440 – $29,500 |
| Window Replacement | $5,310 – $17,700 |
| Frameless Glass Shower Enclosure Installation | $1,062 – $3,540 |
The number moves up when the rough opening is out of square, when the existing stucco needs repair after we pull the old unit, or when the window required is a large impact opening on a high floor. A free estimate means we come out, look at the actual opening, check the NOA, and hand you a written price before any work starts. Call (850) 988-7559 to schedule yours.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Construction in Miami
Yes. Every impact glazing product installed in Miami must carry an HVHZ NOA number from Miami-Dade County, even when you’re replacing the exact same Mr-Glass model that was already there. We verify the NOA before ordering any unit. Call (850) 988-7559 and we’ll check your current window’s approval during the estimate.
In many cases, yes. The fog comes from a failed insulated glass unit, not a failed frame. We remove the glass pack and install a new sealed unit in the existing Mr-Glass frame, as long as the frame is straight and the corners aren’t corroded, which is a common approach in bathroom remodeling in Miami where moisture exposure is high. If the frame is shot, we’ll tell you, and we’ll show you the evidence. Estimates are free.
That depends on the track and the slab beneath it. If the rollers are worn but the track is straight, a roller replacement is a solid repair. If Miami‘s limestone slab has shifted and the track is now bowed, repair gets you maybe a year. We’ll give you an honest read on which way to go, with a written quote either way. Call (850) 988-7559 to have us look.
Impact-rated means the glass resists wind-borne debris. It doesn’t automatically mean the perimeter flashing and sealant are still watertight. In stucco-clad CBS walls, water gets in at the fin line when the original flashing degrades. We repair the flashing, reseal the rough opening, and stop the leak at its actual source. Call (850) 988-7559 for a free assessment.
We do frameless shower enclosure work throughout Miami, including Brickell high-rises. The glass and hardware won’t match your Mr-Glass impact windows exactly, since shower enclosures use different glazing and profiles, but we’ll help you pick a finish and glass tone that sits well alongside them. Call (850) 988-7559 and we’ll measure.
