Glass Preservation

 

Preserving or restoring historic glazing components of a project is a specialized job. The research and sourcing can cause lengthy delays in the completion of a restoration project.

 

Architectural glazing as a historical element in building design and replication requires product knowledge and materials to be within the realms of compliance and cost factors.

 

Structures retain the quality inherent the design intent when the glazing materials are compatible and resonate with the historic charm they once held. Glazing a historic structure where poured glass exists requires either sourcing or manufacturing similar materials.

 

Glazing Research

 

New energy regulations conflict with the heritage preservation rulings at times when the integrity of the project depends upon the correct material choices. While some projects may require research for repairing existing elements, other projects require entire glazing systems to replicate the heritage quality of the project.
