Do You Do Repairs?
Yes, but repairs are handled on a case-by-case basis. We highly recommend bringing in your stained glass piece for an evaluation to determine if it can be repaired. While some repairs may seem simple, stained glass is often delicate and requires careful, time-intensive work. Because of this, each piece must be assessed by our studio before we can determine the best approach. If your stained glass holds sentimental or historical value, we are always happy to take a look and see what can be done.
