Questions from homeowners in Gateshead
I live in an upstairs Tyneside flat. Can I have a flap?
Possibly, if you have your own access to the yard. Shared areas need your neighbour's agreement.
I rent. Can I have a cat flap?
Only with your landlord's written permission. A flap in a replaceable door panel is often the easiest to agree.
Who handles planning?
