Face Putty Glazing

Traditional face putty glazing remains an essential technique for maintaining the authenticity of historic windows and preserving the architectural heritage of older structures. Also known as face glazing, this method is commonly used in the installation and maintenance of windows with individual panes of glass separated by wooden or metal mullions.

Whilst generally associated with historic windows found in heritage buildings, face putty glazing is becoming a popular choice for replacement double glazed units, achieving a traditional and decorative aesthetic.
