Historic Window Glass Replacement
Replacing the glass in historic windows requires more than skill—it requires sensitivity to detail and respect for history. Our historic window glass replacement process is tailored to each home. We begin by assessing the existing sash, identifying the glass era and type (wavy, cylinder, crown, or float), and determining the best preservation approach.
Period-Accurate Antique Glass
If the original glass is broken or missing, we source or reproduce
