Frame Restoration, Church Stained Glass Window, Wood Repair - Newport, RI

Channing Memorial Unitarian Church, Newport RI

Our team of experts assisted Channing Memorial Church with both restoration of their historic stained glass and restoration of their damaged wood frame. Unvented lexan had been installed to save heat, but caused decades of moisture buildup between layers of glass. Serious cracking of wood and wood rot resulted.

Our team of experts removed the old lexan, replaced missing pieces of the wood frame, repaired the wood rot, caulked and painted the frame. We then installed a new perimeter frame to install protect glass correctly and add ventilation to prevent the wood rot from re-occurring.
