Reasons to Restore Your Historical Commercial Stained Glass in the New Year

Stained glass isn’t just common in churches here — it’s actually a popular feature of many historical buildings. This is because, during the early 20th century, everything from stained glass signs in restaurants to stained glass transom windows in banks were fashionable architectural features.

Furthermore, most stained glass windows from this era require restoration. If not properly cared for, the windows will collapse into permanent disrepair within about 100 years. Thus, beyond the fact that neglect could lead to irretrievable damage, repair is also important for several other reasons.

Restoring Commercial Stained Glass is Good For the Community

The community always takes notice–and gets involved!–when we take on a job restoring historical stained glass windows. People often support fundraising efforts, and some communities even give historical restoration grants to keep these treasures intact. If your Austin commercial stained glass is over 100 years old, it is considered historical and could qualify for community grants like these.

Restoring Commercial Stained Glass is Good For Business 

Not to sound biased, but there’s no denying that stained glass is gorgeous. It’s a one-of-a-kind feature that clients and customers will love, which in turn attracts more foot traffic into businesses. Plus, stained glass also helps people remember a space – which makes getting it repaired a wise business decision since it’ll not only boost your marketing efforts but also the bottom line. Regardless of its current state, restoring your stained glass will result in an art piece that is bright and attention-grabbing; two qualities that are sure to attract new customers while giving your commercial space an improved Austin brand.
