Identifying and Addressing Issues in Church Stained Glass

Cracks and breaks in stained glass are not just cosmetic concerns; they threaten the structural integrity, allowing damaging elements like water and dirt into the window. Professional restorers assess and resolve such damage to preserve the window’s beauty and historical value. Fading colors due to sunlight exposure also diminish the artistic impact, often requiring UV protection restoration. Loose or sagging panels, indicating deteriorating lead cames, need expert intervention to prevent further damage. Water leaks signal failed waterproofing, requiring resealing to avoid damage. Finally, visible warping, caused by compromised support, necessitates professional reinforcement to maintain window stability and appeal.
