Weekend-open yards in Norwich

Frequently asked questions

+Are Norwich yards open Sunday?

A minority — always ring ahead. Saturday morning coverage is much broader across East of England.

+Is weekend pricing higher?

Usually not — but weekend van hire is more expensive.

+Can surplus UFH pipe be reused?

Only unused reels. Once installed and pressurised, PEX pipe should not be lifted and relaid.
