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.
Oswestry
Oswestry is a market town and civil parish in the English county of Shropshire, alongside the Welsh border. According to the 2011 Census, the town has a population of around 17105, increasing by 10 per cent since the 2001 Census. As such, Oswestry is not just one of the UK's oldest border settlements however it is also the 3rd largest town in Shropshire, following Telford and Shrewsbury. It is assumed that one of the very first settlements in the area of Oswestry goes back to 3000 years, supported by the evidence featured in the excellently maintained Iron Age hill fort developed in between 800 BC and AD 43. Development began to happen after the town was awarded consent to hold a market every Wednesday in 1190. Thanks to the dependable arrival of Welsh farmers at the market, most of the town's inhabitants were bilingual. The market continued until an outbreak of foot and mouth disease in the late 1960s, causing the animal market to be transferred from the town centre. A statue of a shepherd and sheep can now be seen in the market square as a memorial to the market site's long history. Kinokulture, a cinema operating in a remodelled church, presents a frequent variety of movies and live performances throughout the week and it also provides a Saturday morning Kids' Club. The town also has a national reputation for its high number of public houses. There are roughly 30 in the town, and many serve real ale. The town's Guildhall shows a tapestry of 40 Oswestry pub signs, and a story featuring all of the bars' names can be located inside The Oak Inn.
