What we see in Attleborough homes
Attleborough is an old market town with a lot of new building around it. The centre, around Queen's Square and St Mary's Church, has older brick and flint houses with chimneys that have been in use for a long time, while on the newer estates at the edge of town a stove is more likely to sit on its own flue.
Out in the villages the houses are older again, farmhouses and cottages with wide fireplaces, and some of them thatched. Rick trained as a chartered builder (MCIOB) before becoming a sweep, so if the brickwork or the flue raises a question, the answer you get covers the building as well as the soot.

Price
Chimney sweeping starts from around £75 per appliance and is confirmed with you before we come out. CCTV inspections and bird nest removal are priced once we have seen the chimney. There are no extras added on the day.
Questions we get asked in Attleborough
Our farmhouse near Old Buckenham has an open fire in a wide old fireplace. Can it be swept without making a mess?
Yes. Dust sheets are sealed to the fireplace opening before anything goes up the flue and a HEPA filtered vacuum runs the whole time, so the soot goes into the machine rather than into the room. Wider, older flues are often better suited to traditional rods and brush, and the method is chosen to suit the flue.
Do you sweep thatched houses around Attleborough?
Yes. Rick is approved by the Thatch Advice Centre. Check what your insurer asks for on a thatched property, tell Karen the roof is thatched when you book, and the certificate is emailed to you after the sweep.
We have bought an older house in Attleborough and nobody knows when the chimney was last used. What should we do?
Have it swept and looked at before the first fire. If anything about the flue is in doubt, a CCTV inspection shows its condition so you can see it for yourself before deciding anything, and it is priced once we have seen the chimney.
