SERVICES
Services designed to help you care for your stained glass and protective glazing

Condition Assessments
Condition assessments are important documents that contribute to the historic record of buildings. Liberty's detailed assessments capture the existing conditions of each part of a window (glass, lead, glass paint, weatherproofing, setting, support, etc) and the surrounding area.
Additionally, the assessments include a research-based narrative that illustrates the window's significance within the built environment. This Statement of Significance can be used for grant or funding applications.

Scopes & Specs
Liberty provides technical data to secure appropriate and high-quality treatment. This includes scopes of work, construction specifications and drawings. Recommendations adhere to international ethics guidelines and documents are in standardized format.

Monitoring & Maintenance
Often times stained glass windows are stable. In order to ensure their continued stability, Liberty offers monitoring and maintenance programs. These are non-interventive programs that allow you to keep track of your windows over time and identify issues before they become overwhelming and expensive. Elements can include a full set of dated photographs to help monitor change, disaster planning, and advice to caretakers and custodians. Liberty also offers advice for environmental monitoring.

New Work
Liberty stained glass offers consulting services for the selection and construction of new stained glass. We work with clients to understand the intended message and can assist in the decision of style, present and review the work of different artists, and aid in the interview process and selection of the artist. Liberty also provides advice and project management services for construction, setting, installation and lighting.
