    Fantastic service…Had a semi-framed installed (custom dimensions). Although price was on par with some of the other competitors (even the bigger companies), the immediate attention, professionalism and honesty of Mark, was what made the decision to go with. On the day, work was carried out quickly and cleaned everything afterwards. Extremely satisfied with the job and would gladly recommend him to family and friends.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a kiln?

A kiln is similar to a furnace. It is thermally insulated and this allows temperatures within to reach as high as 800 degrees celsius. While there are kilns for pottery and claywork, the kilns we use are specifically made for glass. This allows us to mould and fuse different types of glass together to create the piece you want.

How is glass fused in a kiln?

Glasses which are compatible for fusing, are stacked together and placed into a kiln. They then reach extremely high temperatures, at which the glasses melt. This is when they fuse together. However, for more intricate designs, there is a step beyond that. By using advanced glasswork techniques, the fused glass can be moulded to create intricate patterns, designs, and be specifically shaped.

Why is a kiln used?

A glass kiln is used because temperatures can be controlled. This allows us to consistently create amazing pieces and retain a high quality of service.

Is fused glass better?

Fused glass is generally more durable. If the glass combined using a different method, the separate pieces will have different physical properties. This means the glass is easier to break off at that point. However, if the glass is fused through the process of heating and moulding, the different glasses become one piece and is much less likely to break.
