Specialists in Stained Glass
Specialists in the Restoration, Conservation and Design of Stained Glass, The GlassHouse employ traditional methods to ensure your glass is finished to the highest of standards. Offering a treble glazing service we can encapsulate your glass within a sealed unit, ensuring that it is protected for many more years to come.
Restoration & Conservation
As old windows were replaced with new we saw stained glass being removed and destroyed or replaced with replica copies that didn't live up to the beauty of the original.
Well those days are gone - we remove your original stained glass, fully restoring it to its original state, removing decades of dirt, damage and deterioration. Your glass can then be re-installed as single glazing or we can encapsulate your beautiful panels into a sealed treble glazed unit to allow your home to be warmer and your glass to be protected.
New Stained Glass
Whether you would like to recreate an original design or create a new bespoke piece - The GlassHouse will guide you through from conception of an idea to design and creation.
Derek Halliday will personally advise you on glass textures and colours ensuring that your idea becomes a reality.
Working with our community - Coquet Park First School
We were very proud to work with the Staff, children and families of Coquet Park First School to create a very special stained glass window installed at the school.
We approached the school offering to create and donate a stained glass window in honour of the last year.
'We all need to be proud of how we got through the last year and how we have all had to adapt and change. And what's wonderful is that we are all here and working together and our children are the little heroes...so lets make something beautiful to celebrate this achievement and the beauty that can be found in the human spirit in difficult times'
It was very special seeing all of the children's drawings, ideas and colours and we worked hard to create something that represented them and their family and school.
Angela, Derek and the team.
Preston Cemetery North Shields
Commissioned by North Tyneside Council to create three stained glass windows for the newly refurbished Room of Remembrance. Creating Sunrise and Sunset symbolising beginnings and endings. And also an image of the local landmark Tynemouth Pier. I included images in my design of Robins, poppies and Stag which I felt were symbols that we can relate to when thinking of our loved ones. Keeping the designs fluid hoping to install calm in those who view them.
A proud moment for me to be given this important commission and for my team who all worked hard to create the designs.
