Stained glass \/ leadlight repairs and restorations<\/h1>\n

If made well, stained glass or leadlight can last for centuries, however\u00a0<\/text>when positioned in doors or\u00a0<\/text>opening windows or near the coast they can deteriorate, the lead can oxidise and become\u00a0<\/text>compromised, leadlight cement may start to crack and cause the window to leak in storms. <\/text><\/text><\/p>\n

Windows\u00a0<\/text>and doors built early last century such as F<\/text>ederation or Art Deco windows will need to be restored\u00a0<\/text>around now if lead is showing signs of bowing or if the window has become rattly. We have years\u00a0<\/text>of experience in restoring these windows and doors, the panels are removed by a licensed glazier\u00a0<\/text>and temp<\/text>orary glazing is installed. <\/text><\/text><\/p>\n

Rubbings are taken of the panels to record the design and sizes of\u00a0<\/text>lead used. The pieces of glass are carefully removed from the old lead, then soaked to clean the\u00a0<\/text>years of grime, paint and the old cement. Any broken pieces are\u00a0<\/text>assessed and replaced with as close\u00a0<\/text>a match as possible, we have a store of old heritage glass which can be used or if an exact match\u00a0<\/text>isn’t found then a new glass will be used which shows the closest match. <\/text><\/text><\/p>\n

There are various new\u00a0<\/text>glasses which are specifica<\/text>lly made as reproductions of the old glass previously used. It is important\u00a0<\/text>to keep faithful to the original colours and type of glass in the restoration to keep the end result as\u00a0<\/text>authentic as possible<\/text>.<\/text><\/p>\n
