Watford Fused Glass
Founded in 1994, the Leadbitter Glass Studio has been supplying Fused Glass panels to homes and businesses across Watford ever since. We also deliver to every other part of the UK. Where Watford’s period homes — many built during the town’s years as a printing and brewing centre — were traditionally fitted with etched or stained glass, Fused Glass has become a popular contemporary upgrade in recent years, bringing a modern finish to doors and windows across the town.
Our Fused Glass designs always begin with an etched glass background pattern, onto which small fused glass tiles are UV bonded, giving each panel real depth and texture alongside its colour. Every panel is supplied as single or double-glazed glass, made to your own sizes for windows and doors. Almost every panel we make qualifies for free delivery to Watford addresses.
We’ve made 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 Watford clients, including Stained Glass, Bevelled Glass, and Etched 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. You can ask us to adjust the tile colours, resize elements, or move the pattern within the panel until you’re completely happy. Production only begins once you’ve approved the final drawing.
How Fused Glass Is Made
We start every Fused Glass panel with a sheet of toughened safety glass, sandblasting it to form the etched background pattern first. Small, individually shaped pieces of coloured glass are then UV bonded straight onto that etched surface, building the design up in layers.
Standing roughly 6mm proud of the surface, the fused tiles give each design real tactile detail exactly where they sit, while the rest of the panel stays flat — built on the same toughened glass base used across every style we make. That combination keeps the durability and efficiency of a single sheet of toughened glass. Re-leading and re-glazing simply aren’t needed, and a double-glazed version is available for extra insulation.
