Is Stained Glass Right For Denver Homes?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Many homeowners in the Denver area, when considering stained glas<\/a>s, are concerned about whether or not the climate of Denver is too harsh for it. \u00a0Not unlike regular glass, stained glass windows can be damaged and the issue lies in the fact that it is much more expensive to replace. The good news is, however, stained glass is very durable and holds up to regular weather quite nicely. \u00a0While hail is always a threat here, your stained glass is no more likely to break from hail as any of your other windows. Additionally, since Denver is so dry, it actually helps keep frames from rotting as quickly, which is usually where you will see the fastest degradation on a stained glass window. In all reality, a properly crafted and cared for stained glass will last 80-100 years before needing repairs. \u00a0For more information on what this means read on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Well-crafted Stained Glass Windows Are More Durable<\/span><\/h3>\n

As we mentioned before a well-crafted stained glass window is very durable. \u00a0This includes the use of quality glass making and leading materials as well as a carefully constructed frame. \u00a0Another area where premature damage will occur is during the installation. If a stained glass installer does not thoroughly clean the glass, permanent smudges may be visible or, if moisture is trapped between the glass panel and an outer window water damage may occur. \u00a0\u00a0What this really means though is– a stained glass expert, like us, is your first and best defense against your Denver home\u2019s stained glass windows being damaged.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stained Glass Maintenance To Prevent Damage<\/span><\/h3>\n

You can keep your stained glass from accruing damage by lightly cleaning it regularly to remove dirt and debris from dust and smog, inside and out. \u00a0These substances can dull the stained glass and reduces its natural luster. It is important to use the right cleaning agents and always be extra-light in your touch. \u00a0It is best if you, have a stained glass<\/a> company deep clean your glass once a year too. Finally, if you see small cracks or chips or any sort of structural frame sagging, make sure to get your stained glass repair. \u00a0These little spots can turn into big, costly blemishes quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n
