Stained Glass Repair & Restoration
Traditional stained glass is crafted to last, but age, weather, and movement in the building can cause damage. We carefully restore your panels using time‑honoured techniques and high‑quality materials
.
What our repair service includes:
Replacing weakened or broken lead cames to strengthen the panel and restore structural integrity.
Matching and sourcing period‑appropriate coloured or textured glass to replace cracked or missing pieces.
Removing dirt, oxidisation, and old putty to bring back the original clarity and vibrancy.
Correcting bowing or sagging to ensure the panel sits safely and securely in its frame.
The goal is always to preserve as much original material as possible while returning the panel to its former beauty.
Many customers want to keep their stained glass but also enjoy the benefits of modern double‑glazing. Encapsulation allows you to do exactly that.
Your restored stained glass panel is placed between two panes of clear glass and sealed to create a fully insulated double‑glazed unit. This protects the artwork while improving energy efficiency and security.
Benefits of encapsulation:
Enjoy the charm of stained glass with the comfort of modern insulation.
The stained glass is sealed inside the unit, shielding it from weathering, dirt, and accidental damage.
Once encapsulated, the panel requires minimal upkeep.
Encapsulated units can be fitted into most modern frames without compromising the original design.
Preserve Your Heritage, Upgrade Your Home
Whether you’re restoring a period property or adding character to a modern home, our stained glass repair and encapsulation service offers the perfect balance of tradition and performance. Your original artwork is preserved, protected, and ready to be enjoyed for decades to come.
