The unit shouldn't be too expensive to replace. Leave it as it is and call a window fitter.

Tape cardboard up against it to stop the wee chap getting about it.

Have heavy duty plastic taped the whole thing. Its 6ft x 4ft it has two smaller opening 3ft x_6inch windows at the top any idea of price used or new

I have just had a fogged up unit changed, the unit replaced was around 3ft x 3ft and this was £69 inc fitting.

Cheap to replace although £69 seems VERY cheap for a company to come out, measure up, make a new IGU and then return to fit. If you can get it done for £69 I would snap their hand off.
