A Quick Guide to Cathedral Stained Glass restoration in Fort Collins

Church Stained Glass Restoration Next Steps

Thinking about getting your church stained glass restored and curious about how the process will work?  First of all, you are not alone and second, this is a great place to start. Because at Scottish Stained Glass we are arguably the country’s most prolific stained glass restoration company and more to the point–we love what we do.  Below is a quick guide on the next couple of steps and what we can help you achieve with your church stained glass windows.

1. The Free Review On Your Church’s Stained Glass

The first thing we do is consult with you by viewing your church’s stained glass and making an assessment.  

This includes:

• A report on the state of your stained glass
• An estimate of scope, cost and time
• A conversation about fundraising
• Q and A time

2.  The Restoration Of Your Cathedral’s Stained Glass

Once we begin the job we will, in many cases, remove your church’s stained glass window(s) from its frame.  Then, carefully wrapped, we take the stained glass and its corresponding structural parts to our studio. Here we do our restoration craftwork, including:

• Cleaning your glass
• Remove old leading
• Fixing, chips, crack and/or replacing glass pieces
• Re-assembling your church stained glass

3.  The Delivery And Installation Of Your Chapel’s Stained Glass Windows

We finally bring your lovely, new/restored church stained glass windows back to your site and put them back where they have graced the walls of your chapel for decades.  This is our favorite part, since, we get to see these wonderful works of religious iconography back where they belong, looking more lovely, in many cases, than the day they were installed!

Stained glass is more than just our job here at Scottish, it is our passion too!  We just love bringing back these gorgeous works of art and preserving them for the next generation.  Contact us today on your Fort Collins church restoration and see our passion in action.
