Historic Glass

The subtle imperfections of glass made by American glass makers during the mid twentieth century is essential to the feel of an historic building. To effectively remove existing glass so it may be reused in a freshly restored window, we steam the sash to soften 100 year old putty. These photos are of the sash steamer at our Capitol Hill annex, critical to a properly executed job, as a result we can save 90 to 100% of your original, historic glass in our restorations.
