replacing glass in upvc window

[IA76]

Hi All

the window in my upstairs bedroom is about 3ft wide by 6ft high.

the inside glass pane is cracked so needs replacing. the outside one is fine.

cani just buy the correct size glass and replace it myself?

is it easy to do yourself? how is it done?

No not necessarily, see this

This is an example only, not a reccomendation.

not sure if they are sealed. when the double glazing was fitted the frames were installed first then the glass was put in last.


thanks for the link. i'm just going to have a read

edited to say i realise what you mean by sealed now. the 2 pieces of glass and the metal in the middle of them make up a sealed unit?
