Cat Flap & Dog Flap Installation in Chester
Chester's centre, inside its Roman and medieval walls, is full of listed buildings, including the famous Rows. Around it are Victorian terraces and newer suburbs.

What the official figures mean for fitting a pet flap. Figures are for Cheshire West and Chester Council's area, which is much larger than the city. These are area-wide figures, so your own home may be quite different. We'll always look at your actual door, glass or wall.
30.6%
of homes are detached houses
England average: 22.9%
About three in ten homes in the wider council area are detached, above average, often with a side door or wall option.
Inside the walls
The city centre is a conservation area with a very large number of listed buildings, many black-and-white. Timber frames shouldn't be cut, and original doors need consent. A modern rear door is usually the practical choice.
Terraces and suburbs
Victorian terraces in Hoole and Handbridge usually have back doors that suit a cat flap. Suburban homes with cavity walls often suit a wall flap into a utility room.

Questions from homeowners in Chester
I live inside the city walls. Can I have a cat flap?
If your home is listed, consent is needed for original doors or walls. Check with the council.
Is a wall flap possible in Hoole?
Victorian terraces have solid brick walls, so an extended tunnel is needed; the back door is usually quicker.
Who handles planning?
Cheshire West and Chester Council.
