Cat Flap & Dog Flap Installation in East of England

We offer cat flap, dog flap and pet door installation throughout the East of England, in everything from new-build estates and post-war new towns to flint cottages and timber-framed period homes.

Homes and doors in the East of England

Large modern estates around Cambridge, Peterborough and in Essex mean composite and uPVC back doors, and glazed French and patio doors, are common in the area.

Norfolk is known for flint-walled cottages, and Suffolk and Essex have many timber-framed and thatched homes. Flint and timber-frame walls need careful assessment. In these properties a door installation is usually the better option.

Permissions to check before installation

The Broads has its own planning authority, the Broads Authority. Many historic timber-framed homes are listed, and Cambridge and many market towns have conservation areas. Listed building consent may be needed before altering original doors or walls.

If you rent your home, get your landlord's written permission first. We can't give planning advice for a specific property, but we're happy to explain the options so you can ask the right questions.

Weather exposure

The East of England is the driest part of the UK, but the coast is open to cold easterly winds. A flap with good seals stops draughts on exposed doors.
