What that means if you are ordering from Lode
The driest region in the UK, with exposed fenland wind. The failure we see most in this area: Ground movement on shrinkable clay and fen peat distorting openings
Order to the structural opening — brick to brick, lintel to cill — measured in three places, using the smallest figure. Do not deduct a fitting tolerance yourself; that happens at our end. The full measuring method.
On a supply-only order you notify building control yourself and pay their fee. There is no FENSA or CERTASS certificate because no registered installer was involved — what that means when you sell the house. Settlement is a genuine issue on peat — re-measure at the point of order, not from old drawings.
What we deliver to Lode
Delivery to Lode — questions
Who notifies building control on a supply-only order in Lode?
You do. Replacement windows and external doors are notifiable work, and with no registered installer involved there is no FENSA or CERTASS self-certification. If we install, we certify.
Which postcodes does that cover?
Lode covers CB25. Anything outside that list is still delivered — it just prices differently.
Is there a minimum order for Lode?
No minimum on the product. Delivery is priced by area and size of load, so a single unit to Lode carries a delivery charge that a full house of windows effectively absorbs.
Do you supply trade in Lode?
Yes. Trade accounts get ex-VAT pricing and the same lead time. Tell us you are trade when you send the sizes.
Do you deliver to Lode?
Yes. Lode is 120 road miles from our Birmingham unit, which puts it in Zone C: 2–3 working days once made. Everything is made to your sizes before it goes on the vehicle.
