Repairs

Whenever possible, repairs to leaded lights are carried out in situ. However, this is not always possible if there are several broken pieces of glass or the lead has been weakened. Therefore the cost of removing and refitting the panel needs to be taken into consideration. Please get in touch should you wish to arrange for me to inspect your damaged stained glass and provide you with a free quotation.

Before

Sadly an attempted break-in resulted in the central handpainted roundel and surrounding lead and glass to be damaged

After

I made a new handpainted roundel depicting a bird, matched and replaced the broken glass and re-leaded the panel so it is now as good as new

Before

[Ref: Rep1] This leaded light at St Mary's Church in Ilford had been badly vandalised during an attempted break in.

After

The windows were removed and rebuilt using new lead and handblown glass to match the original. Once repaired the windows were refitted and the Vicar's view was restored.

Before

This door had lost much of the original glass over the years and some of the remaining panels had damaged/missing pieces

After

I made new panels with handpainted and silverstained pieces to match the original to restore the door to its former glory

Before

This window had one piece of handpainted glass missing

After

I made a new piece, handpainting the foliage to match the original glass. This repair I carried out without having to remove the entire panel.
