What the official figures mean for fitting a pet flap. Figures cover Cambridge, Peterborough and the four Cambridgeshire districts. These are area-wide figures, so your own home may be quite different. We'll always look at your actual door, glass or wall.

25.6%

of homes were built since 2000

England average: 17.8%

Around a quarter of homes have been built since 2000, well above average. Composite doors and cavity walls are very common.

New homes

With so many recent homes, many installations will be in composite or uPVC doors, or through cavity walls. Composite doors need the right tools and liner, and some warranties don't allow cutting, so a wall flap is a common alternative.

Cambridge, Ely and the Fens

In Cambridge, about a third of households live in flats and a similar share rent privately, so fire doors and landlord permission are common issues. In Fenland, East Cambridgeshire and South Cambridgeshire, over four in ten homes are detached. Open Fenland homes can be exposed to strong winds, so a flap with good seals helps.

Questions from homeowners in Cambridgeshire

Is a wall flap a good idea in a new-build home?

Often, as it keeps a warranted composite door intact. We'll check the wall first.

I rent in Cambridge. Can I have a cat flap?

Only with your landlord's written permission, and not in a flat's front door.

Who handles planning?

Cambridge City Council, Peterborough City Council or your district council.
