Chimney Sweeping in Norwich

Watmore's Woodburners are based in Norwich — NR7 — so we know the city's housing stock well. Norwich has one of the highest concentrations of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing in the East of England, and a huge number of these properties retain their original chimney flues, many of which are in daily use with a wood burning stove or open fireplace.

We cover every area of the city — from the older terraces in NR1, NR2 and NR3 to the interwar semis in Eaton and Catton, the riverside properties in Thorpe St Andrew, and the newer estates on the city fringe. Annual sweeping is required by most UK home insurance policies and we issue a sweep certificate on every visit.

Properties We Sweep in Norwich

Victorian and Edwardian terraces — NR1 to NR3

The inner city areas of Norwich have a dense spread of Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses. Many still have their original brick flues and open fireplaces, or have been fitted with stove liners in more recent years. We sweep these regularly and know the common flue configurations well.

Interwar semis in Eaton, Catton and Hellesdon

The interwar suburban belt around Norwich — Eaton, Old Catton, Hellesdon, Costessey — has thousands of semi-detached properties with period chimney stacks. These are among the most common jobs we carry out and are typically straightforward annual sweeps.

Thorpe St Andrew riverside and city-fringe properties

Thorpe St Andrew has a mix of older riverside properties and newer detached houses, many of which have had wood burning stoves fitted. We also cover Sprowston, Drayton, Taverham and all other city-fringe villages on our regular Norwich rounds.
