What that means if you are ordering from Charminster
Channel exposure with real salt loading along the coast. Locally, the usual reason for replacement is this — Salt corrosion of hardware and finish degradation on south-facing coastal elevations
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. Marine-grade specification is the norm on the coastal strip.

Can I collect instead of paying for delivery?
Collection is a long day — most people take delivery. Collection is from Unit 1 Hems Crescent, Great Barr, Birmingham B43 5DG. Bring something big enough — a full door set does not go in a hatchback.
Who notifies building control on a supply-only order in Charminster?
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?
Charminster covers DT2. Anything outside that list is still delivered — it just prices differently.
