Customer-designed dcorative glazing 

We recently completed a unique project where the customer designed their own coloured lead window pattern, and Windowcare Northwest manufactured and installed the bespoke glazed unit to bring their vision to life.

This project highlights our ability to create fully customised decorative glazing tailored to individual properties. 

Project overview

The homeowner wanted something completely personal – a leaded glass design that reflected their style and complemented the character of their home. Rather than choosing a standard pattern, this customer created their own coloured lead layout, which we then:

• Reviewed and refined for practicality

• Manufactured to precise measurements

• Incorporated into high-performance double glazed units

• Professionally installed

The result is a truly one-of-a-kind feature window. 

Bespoke coloured leaded glass manufacturing

Creating custom leaded glass requires both technical precision and attention to detail. Our process included:

• Translating the customer’s design into a workable glazing pattern

• Selecting appropriate coloured lead detailing

• Manufacturing the decorative unit within modern double glazing

• Ensuring the finished product met energy efficiency standards

By combining traditional lead design techniques with modern glazing technology, we achieved a decorative finish without compromising insulation or durability.

Combining style with performance

While the appearance of the window was a key focus, performance remained equally important. The completed unit provides:

• High-performance double glazing

• Improved thermal efficiency

• Secure and durable construction

• Low maintenance finish

• Long-lasting clarity and colour

Modern leaded units are sealed within the glazing, preventing movement or deterioration over time.
