Stained Glass Slough

Founded in 1994, the Leadbitter Glass Studio has been supplying Overlay Stained Glass panels to homes and businesses across Slough ever since. We also deliver to every other part of the UK. “Timbertown,” an estate of spacious wooden houses built to solve Slough’s 1920s housing shortage, reflects the same care the town put into providing quality homes for its rapidly growing population — stained glass remains one of the most requested styles for period properties across Slough today.

Working from our own Decorative Glass Studio, we design and manufacture every panel ourselves — either from your own photos and ideas, or from one of the hundreds of designs in our gallery. Our Overlay Stained Glass is available as toughened single glazing or as a resilient double-glazed unit, and works just as well for a front door, a feature window, or any other glazed space in the home. Almost every panel we make qualifies for free delivery to Slough addresses.

We’ve made Overlay Stained Glass for a Prime Minister’s home, for Hollywood film sets, and for well-known singers and billionaires — but the vast majority of our work is for homeowners just like you. We also make other styles of Decorative Glass for Slough clients, including Bevelled Glass, Etched Glass, and Fused Glass.

Our Free Client Pages Design Service

Every order includes free access to our Client Pages design service. Within a few days of ordering, we’ll send you a computer-generated proof showing exactly how your chosen design will look, built to your own glass sizes and colours. You can request as many changes as you like at this stage — a different border, an adjusted colour, a resized element — until you’re completely happy. Production only begins once you’ve approved the final drawing.

How Our Stained Glass Is Made

Unlike traditional stained glass, our method offers a genuine efficiency benefit. Every design is hand-crafted onto a single, unbroken sheet of toughened safety glass — meaning there’s no seam anywhere for cold air to work its way through.

Pilkington K Glass can be supplied on request too, and it’s now a building regulations requirement for any new window or door installation across Slough and the rest of the UK.

Durability and security matter just as much as the design itself. By manufacturing with toughened or laminated safety glass, we produce panels built to last.

In the past, homeowners paid thousands of pounds for traditional leaded glass, only to find small coloured sections cracking within weeks — something that simply doesn’t happen with Overlay Stained Glass.

Our process

First, lead strips are shaped by hand onto a solid sheet of toughened glass, tracing an uncoloured outline of your chosen design. The glass is then flipped over, and colourwork begins — each piece of stained glass overlay colour is cut and fitted precisely between the leaded lines.

Once the colourwork is complete, matching lead strips go onto the reverse to mirror the design exactly. The finished panel is fully leaded and fully coloured on both sides — made entirely by hand.

We offer a range of different lead finishes, which you can see in our Leaded Glass section.
