Traditional types of glazing, such as leaded, coloured, and stained-glass windows, are some of the most beautiful windows around. However, as they also tend to be quite old, many of them do not look or perform as good as they once did. As we offer an extensive range of traditional glazing repairs, however, we can get them looking and performing their best once again.
Whether the glass panel is damaged, there is a slight knick in the frame or leading, or something else entirely, these issues are better dealt with sooner rather than later and by experts in that field. So, as we have been experts in glazing repairs and installations since 1972, we are exactly who you should turn to for an outstanding service and solution to your problem, no matter what it is.
Opting to repair the glass or frames, or both, on your existing glazing is more budget-friendly than paying to replace the whole window. However, if you’d like replacement glass or a new window, we can provide these options too.
Cracks in the glazing, chips in the frames, and other types of blemishes prevent traditional glazing from looking as good as it can, which is a massive shame considering the aesthetic appeal these types of window have. However, we can get your traditional windows looking as good as new.
If you live in a conservation area or a listed building, or if you just want to retain your property’s historical character, replacing your windows might not be an option. However, our range of repairs can ensure they look their best without spoiling their historic charm.
One of the best ways to preserve traditional windows is to have them fitted with secondary glazing. This is an additional service that we offer here at Sheerwater Glass.
Secondary glazing involves adding a single glazed window to the inside of your existing window, and this provides a range of performance benefits; it improves thermal performance, which can lead to a warmer home and lower energy bills; it insulates against outside noise, making the home quieter and more peaceful; plus, it adds an extra layer of security. As secondary glazing is fitted on the inside of an existing window, your traditional glazing will also be completely preserved!
We can repair everything from cylinder and crown to plate glass. So, no matter what type of traditional glazing you have, and what issue you are having with it, we’re sure we can help.
We have been working in the glazing industry for almost 50 years, so are familiar with virtually any type of window and glass.
