Repair fixes a fault so a window is safe and weather tight. Conservation preserves original glass, paint and lead as far as possible, using minimal intervention and full documentation so the history of the piece is retained.

Yes. We survey, conserve and install in churches and listed buildings. We can help with permissions, including faculty applications and statements of significance and need.

Yes. We make the opening safe, photograph and map the damage, board or glaze temporarily, then plan studio conservation and reinstallation. We can work with insurers and loss adjusters.

Leaded glazing remains a standard heritage method. We follow current guidance, use controlled handling and fume extraction in the studio, and manage waste responsibly. We are happy to explain how safety measures apply to your project.

With good materials and detailing, a properly releaded window should last for many decades. Regular inspection and maintenance extend that life.

Yes. We use traditional techniques including trace line, matting and silver stain, and we fire on compatible glass so new work sits naturally with the original.

Isothermal protection places a protective outer layer in front of fragile painted glass so the original sits in a stable microclimate. It is useful for vulnerable medieval and nineteenth century schemes or where pollution and weathering are severe. We advise case by case.

No. We handle domestic leaded lights, commercial foyers, schools and civic buildings as well as churches and cathedrals.

Often yes. We combine archive images, rubbings and surviving fragments to redraw the cartoon and remake the panel in a way that is honest and legible.

It depends on the condition and access. Many projects are best lifted out for studio conservation. Local repairs, minor solder work and glazing adjustments can be done on site where appropriate.

We are based in the Midlands and regularly work across Leicester, Leicestershire and the wider UK by arrangement. We have and do work worldwide.

Yes. We design, paint and fabricate new commissions from concept and cartoon through to installation, ensuring the work fits the architecture and light of the space.

Yes. We can correct bowing by releading or by targeted structural work, and we can replace or edge bond cracked pieces where conservation ethics allow.

Yes. We can address glazing bars, sash boxes and perimeter putties so the window performs as a whole assembly.

Keep frames painted and sealed, ensure ventilation is working, and clean gently with a soft brush and water only. Avoid abrasive cleaners and avoid scraping painted surfaces.

Simple repairs can be completed in days or weeks. Full conservation and large schemes can take several months including permissions, studio work and installation. We will give you a realistic schedule after survey.

We can provide the technical details, condition evidence and scope needed for applications and community fundraising packs, and we can join meetings with stakeholders when required.

You get conservation first methods, skilled painting and glazing, coordinated frame repairs and clear communication from survey to sign off, delivered by a Midlands studio that understands both heritage and modern use of buildings.
