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.
Littleborough
Littleborough is a village within the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale, in Greater Manchester. It lies in the upper Roch Valley by the foothills of the South Pennines, 3 miles (4.8 km) northeast of Rochdale and 12.6 miles (20.3 km) north-northeast of the city of Manchester. In 2001, Littleborough and its surrounding suburbs of Calderbrook, Shore and Smithy Bridge were recorded as having a population of 13,807. When cotton was introduced as a base to make cloths, Littleborough experienced an influx of families, predominately from the neighbouring county, the West Riding of Yorkshire. Wealthy houses and estates were developed on the outskirts of the town. Coal mining, engineering ventures and significantly sizeable textile mills supported Littleborough's population development and urbanisation, which led to its status as a mill town. During the course of the mid-20th century, imports of more affordable foreign products contributed towards the progressive deindustrialisation of Littleborough, but the business diversity of the town helped it to ward off the following economic depression, which was witnessed elsewhere in North West England. Littleborough's stone-built town centre is designated as a Conservation Area for its unique architectural qualities. The town also boasts good dining and leisure facilities, with Littleborough Rugby Union Football Club being nominated 'Club of the Year' at National Ruby Football Awards.
