DESIGN AND SERVICES

The beauty of stained and leaded glass comes from the interplay of light, color, and texture. When planning our stained glass projects, We will work closely with you to create the design that pleases you. As well as basic style—from traditional to contemporary—each of our unique designs takes into consideration where and how the panel will be installed, the available light, and whether or not privacy is an issue.

STAINED GLASS REPAIR

STAINED GLASS REPAIR IS A WONDERFULLY PERPLEXING COMBINATION OF ART, SCIENCE, AND THE MAGIC OF LIGHT
Simply said, a repair is not a restoration! A repair simply replaces the glass and there may be other changes. A restoration returns the item to its original condition and this is frequently not possible.
The simplest repairs usually involve replacing a single lite or piece of glass in a window or panel with a close match. If the window or panel is in good condition and the damaged glass is clear, it is easy. If the glass is colored, the shape complex, beveled, painted, or other surface treatments—it gets slightly more difficult to absolutely impossible. I will try to give examples below.

GLASS REPAIR

WE DO GLASS REPAIR BY GRINDING, POLISHING, AND VARIOUS SURFACE TREATMENTS.
It is possible to rejoin some items by hot work but it is usually done with adhesive. Art glass, stemware, cut crystal, and stained glass are all repairable. The degree of success really depends upon the damage and what is expected. It is seldom possible to achieve perfect restoration!
Some stemware and glassware repairs require extreme skill and handling. The following is an example of artistic wheel cut glassware. As with all glassware, chips and nicks are almost unavoidable. The artistry speaks volumes and a successful repair requires great attention to detail.

Storms

STORM WINDOWS, FRAMES, SASH

STORM WINDOWS
Maintenance can be as simple as replacing a broken lite, reglazing, or rebuilding. A properly installed storm window will greatly reduce maintenance costs and has other significant benefits.
I have been building sash and storm windows for stained glass panels for many years and I have never had anything but good comments about the results. Drafts, sweating glass, and noise are all greatly reduced and things are warmer.

Plate

CERAMIC REPAIR

Most ceramics are repaired using a clear drying adhesive. The voids are filled and painted. Restorations are seldom possible and usually fragile. A repair will show some differences than the original. The repaired item is usually stronger than a restored item and will withstand lite usage but not hot water.
