What that means if you are ordering from Shildon
Cool, exposed, with real wind load on the higher ground. In practice the common fault in County Durham is Condensation and cold-bridging where cavity insulation was retrofitted around old frames
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. A large proportion of solid-wall stock — reveal detailing matters at replacement.
What we deliver to Shildon
Delivery to Shildon — questions
What usually needs replacing in County Durham?
Condensation and cold-bridging where cavity insulation was retrofitted around old frames. That is the pattern across most of the county, though an individual property can differ.
Can I get a price without giving you my details?
Prices are published on the product pages with an inc and ex VAT switch. For your exact sizes we need to price it, but you can see the range before you speak to anyone.
What if the delivery is damaged?
Check it on the vehicle and note anything on the paperwork before the driver leaves. Damage reported at that point is replaced; damage found a fortnight later is much harder to resolve.
How long does delivery to Shildon take?
About a week from order for standard products in standard finishes, then 2–4 working days once made for the run to Shildon. Special RAL colours and made-to-measure joinery take longer, and you get a firm date before you pay.
Do you install in Shildon?
Installation is available and quoted as a separate line, so you can see exactly what the fitting costs against the product. The product still arrives on the supply-only lead time; the fitting date depends on the diary.
