For a stained glass repair, a glazier from AA Glas will visit you in Utrecht. For a small repair, it is often not necessary to take out the entire window. For a major repair it is more convenient to remove the glass panel from the frame and lay it down on a table. This way our specialist can get to it better. Repairs that are common are replacing a broken pane, replacing the sealant edge or repairing damaged lead. When the technician replaces the pane, he bends three sides of the lead frames at a ninety-degree angle. He then removes the glass, cleans the edges and installs a new window pane. We use special sealant to install the new pane. After this, the lead is bent back.
Do you want new stained glass windows in Utrecht? Then you can choose from several designs. Perhaps you have your own design? Then you can add it to the quotation form. If not, we will gladly design it together with you. You can choose between many different types of glass for a stained glass panel such as clear glass, non-clear glass and patterned glass. Of course, the glass is also available in many different colors.
You can place existing stained glass panels between insulation glass, in order to achieve a better insulation value. In this case, existing stained glass panels will be dismantled and temporary emergency glass will be installed. The existing stained glass is shortened (proportionally) so that it can later be clamped precisely between the insulation glass. Before installing the stained glass, the panel will be fully checked and inspected and repaired where necessary. Any glue residue on the glass is also removed. The stained glass panel is thoroughly cleaned and then placed between the double-glazing/insulation glass. In this way you achieve modern insulation values, while maintaining the historic appearance of your building in the Utrecht region. Another option is the installation of a front window.
We can also stain the stained glass pane. This is a special technique, making your panel completely unique. Stained glass is an ancient technique in which a painted image is applied to the glass. The glass paint on the glass is fired in the oven at temperatures between 540 and 680 degrees. It is the art and experience of the glass painter to paint several layers on top of each other. This creates beautiful and very realistic images. Therefore, staining is an excellent method for creating coats of arms or portraits.
