Stained Glass Repair Process
When repairing a stained glass panel, the aim is to have the stained glass window design look as good as it did before it was broken. There are two aspects to this. First, the glass needs to be matched exactly. At Scottish Stained Glass we have access to over 10,000 colors and textures of glass and in some cases have even had glass specially made where we couldn’t match the original. In extreme cases where the glass cannot be matched then the repair can often be carried out by rearranging the pieces on the panel and introducing some new color or texture and blending this in with the existing glass to still give a great stained glass repair result.
The second consideration for a good stained glass repair is to be sure not to damage the lead between the pieces of glass when replacing the broken glass pieces. The only way to achieve this successfully is to remove each piece of glass from the side of the stained glass panel working inwards towards the piece requiring repair. This requires that the stained glass be removed from the window or door prior to starting. After the broken piece has been repaired all the other pieces are put back and the lead joints are re-soldered.
