Conway, Arkansas

Stained Glass Repair & Restoration

Conway was founded shortly after the end of the Civil War by Asa P. Robinson, who was the head engineer of the Little Rock-Fort Smith Railroad. The small town expanded quickly just a few years later with the arrival of Father Joseph Strub, who started the St. Joseph Catholic Church of Conway, which attracted Roman Catholic immigrants from Germany. Thus, faith has always been at the center of Conway’s identity as a city, making the preservation of its historic churches a matter of extreme importance.

At Church Stained Glass Restoration, we are committed to doing our part to preserve historic religious buildings in Conway with our stained glass repair and restoration services. We have been restoring church windows for over thirty years and are well-equipped to handle repairs of all types.

Stained Glass Restoration for Conway Churches, Chapels, and Cathedrals

Stained glass windows are a defining feature of many churches, cathedrals, and other large buildings. They’re often quite old – some date back hundreds or even thousands of years! Though many times, over the decades, restoration work is required to remove dirt and grime from these surfaces that has accumulated overtime and to improve their structural integrity.

Restoring stained glass can be a long process, but it’s worth the hard work. It means saving an old piece of art that would otherwise have been lost forever and displaying its beauty for another 100 years! While it takes some work, the results make it well worth in the end. And our experts are ready to assist you in anyway we can.

If you love your church’s historic stained glass windows, then don’t hesitate to contact us for restoration in Conway, Arkansas. We’ll work with you to find the right solution that fits all of your unique needs and will answer any questions along the way!

Restoration Process for Conway Church Stained Glass

Stained glass restoration is an intricate process. Large projects are often completed in phases while simpler repairs may be able to be completed onsite. Either way, the process typically begins with an evaluation of the stained glass’s condition, age and materials. After this inspection, we’ll send you a proposal, which will explain all the possible options for repairing the damage.

To conserve costs and provide the best quality work, small repairs are completed onsite. If this is not possible or if it cannot be fixed in-house, we will transport your stained glass to our workshop for complete disassembly.

After soaking in a mild cleansing solution for up to 14 days, the stained glass is taken apart. Often, lead caming has weakened and must be discarded. Severely damaged pieces of glass are also exchanged with new replacement pieces. Then, hand-painted details can be recreated by a skilled artist before the stained glass is put back together with new leading.

The final phase of the restoration project includes carefully reinstalling each stained glass window back into their original frame. The colors shine more brilliantly than they ever have before, and are guarded from any future dangers by a protective covering on top. Now your church can enjoy its beautiful windows for decades to come!
