Accidents happen, and sometimes windows get broken. And that will lead to you wanting to replace just the glass in your window, rather than the whole frame. Also, as windows get older they can mist up on the inside, which means that the unit has ‘blown’ - so you’ll also need to replace the glass. But how much is it to replace the glass in a window? Luckily, if the frame of your window is in good condition, there’s no need to replace it, and this will reduce the cost. For an installer to fit a new pane of glass in a single glazed window, the average cost is £100, while a replacement double glazed sealed unit will cost an average of £110. Of course, as this is an average, if your window is very large you may spend more, and if your window is very small the price may be less. That's why it’s important to get a range of quotes so you can compare costs and get the best price. If you’re good at DIY, you may feel confident enough to have a go at replacing the glass in your window yourself. In that case, the cost of sealed unit and any other materials you need will cost an average of £57. It’s a significant saving, and if you think you can do it, then give it a try. However, if you’re in any way unsure, it’s best to leave it to the professionals. A window installer will be able to replace the glass in your window in less than an hour. Even though it costs more for a professional to do it, if you get it wrong and have to start over it will cost you more in the long run.
Aberfoyle
Aberfoyle is a village in Stirling, Scotland. It is around 27 miles from Glasgow. It sits along the River Forth at the bottom of Craigmore which is 420 metres high. In 2010, it was estimated that the population was 800.
During the 1820s to the 1950s, the slate quarries on Craigmore were a principal industry for Aberfoyle. Other industries, established in the 1720s, included wool spinning and a lint mill.
From 1882, Aberfoyle had its own railway station, but this closed to passengers in 1951 and to freight traffic in 1959. Nowadays the village is supported by the forestry industry and tourism.
Aberfoyle calls itself 'The Gateway to the Trossachs'. Its position attracts visitors as they can visit Loch Lomond and the Lake of Menteith, Scotland's single lake. The nearby Queen Elizabeth Forest Park organises walks round the local lochs. Aberfoyle also has the biggest Go Ape adventure course in the UK, with the longest zipline in the country. Tourists can also see the 'Quack Commandoes', where a sheepdog herds Indian Runner ducks!
