First Baptist Church
We are pleased to be able to offer a letter of reference on behalf of Glass Hertiage of Davenport, Iowa.
We are a small church in a rural community in southwest Wisconsin. Our stained glass windows were covered by storm windows which over time became compromised and one failed. While trying to determine what to do about the storm windows, we realized that our stained glass windows needed attention. We contacted a handful of contractors and found Glass Heritage of Davenport to be by far the most responsive.
An on-site inspection helped us understand the value and condition of our windows. The more we learned, the more we realized we needed to do something to preserve a valuable aspect of our building and upgrade the protective coverings appropriately. We were given an easy to understand, yet thorough estimate in a timely fashion by Glass Heritage.
We chose Glass Heritage to do the restoration and we have never regretted it in any way. Communication was always timely and our questions were answered promptly and any concerns addressed immediately. The work was done professionally and every effort was made to cause the least disruption possible.
Initially, there was concern about the cost of the restoration project. However, as the project progressed, the entire congregation came to realize the painstaking amount of time and effort required to do the work and the value we were receiving.
We are very pleased with the work done by Glass Heritage and would highly recommend Adrian and his team for any job they would accept. We have received many compliments from> members of the community who have appreciated the restoration of the stained glass looking from the outside in. It's even better for us who look from the inside out!

Exterior flashing on the frames of the church's windows concealed a number of problems. I appreciated Adrian English's expertise and clearly communicating what needed to be done to protect our windows every step of the way. I highly recommend Glass Heritage.

After a lengthy search we selected Glass Heritage to restore eight windows and replace the plexiglass protective coverings on these windows and a very large stained glass window in our sanctuary. This work was completed during the summer of 2015. The initial project was completed in a very high quality manner. The craftsmen were courteous, highly skilled and very professional during the entire project. The project was completed on schedule and the materials used were of excellent quality. The venting system used on the protective covering frame was superior to all other systems we have seen. Since this initial project, Wesley Church has contracted four additional projects to date with Glass Heritage.
The Trustees at Wesley Church cannot say enough good comments about Glass Heritage. Without any reservations, we soundly endorse Glass Heritage and highly recommend them for any stained glass restoration and / or new commission glass window projects you would be considering.
