Stained glass repairs and encapsulation |
|
Victorian period properties often boast windows and door lights with original stained glass detail. By stabilising the stained glass panels within a double, or triple, glazed unit, the beauty of these original features can be preserved and protected without compromise to either the energy efficiency, sound insulation or security value of the replacement product. |
|
After carefully removing the panel from the old frame, it is re-mounted using a new border lead. The leads are then polished and the stained glass window blown clean with high pressure air before being encapsulated into the glazing unit and hermetically sealed. Note; these units can also be filled with inert Argon gas for greater environmental protection and higher U-values. |
