Stained Glass Architectural Salvage Page 1
Existing stained glass windows which have been removed from old and demolished buildings can be re-used and fitted into new or existing doors, windows or openings. The glass in older panels tends to have a heavier texture which catches the light better than many new equivalent types of glass. Stained glass taken out for double glazing can also be re-used.

We try and keep as much of the original stained glass as possible when resizing and using as close a match to the original glass for any extensions needed. We have a stock of old glass and can sometimes match exactly.
