CHURCH RESTORATION
Your stained-glass windows are a legacy to be preserved and protected. Their components may need repair, restoration, or replacement. With proper care and maintenance, stained-glass artwork will last for many generations.

STAINED GLASS WINDOW DESIGN
The classical elements of design are fundamental to every stained-glass window. Proper composition, color scheme, contrast, balance, detail, etc. are indispensable for a successful work.

PROTECTION
There are various choices of materials to protect stained-glass windows including tempered glass, laminated glass, polycarbonate, and acrylic. Every protective enclosure must be vented to prevent heat accumulation, which adds to premature failure of materials—primarily paint, glazing compound, window cement, and woodwork.

RESIDENTIAL
Designing a custom window means you provide input to the artisan to create exactly the composition, color scheme, and feel of the finished window, thus achieving the atmosphere you wish to create.

Testimonials

Kendra P.

Robert did a fantastic job on our church stained glass project. Our church was built in the 1970's and Robert was able to perfectly match new stained glass windows to the original glass windows. He also designed a brand new stained glass window for us. Not only was it a beautiful and meaningful design, but the craftsmanship was amazing - a true work of art. Robert is very knowledgeable, talented, and professional. He also completed our project on time. We highly recommend Robert Kane and Sunsmith Stained Glassworks!

When the Stained Glass Windows at our church here in Tawas City, Michigan, required some repair ( cracked panels, aged fittings, caulking, weather sealing, etc. ) we were in need of an experienced contractor to take on the task.

After some research, and obtaining a few estimates for both time and cost, we contracted Robert Kane, owner of Sunsmith Stained Glassworks, to take on the project. Robert honored his commitments as to project timeline schedule. He was on the job when he said he would be, informative as to what needed to be done and how he was doing it, and the quality of his work met more than our expectations. Throughout the process, Robert was respectful of both our aging church and concerned congregation. We could not have asked for any contractor to be as friendly and easy to work with; and the follow up he has provided has been over and above.

All in all, we would highly endorse Robert and Sunsmith Stained Glassworks for anyone considering a similar project.
