What the official figures mean for fitting a pet flap. Figures are for Maidstone Borough Council's area. These are area-wide figures, so your own home may be quite different. We'll always look at your actual door, glass or wall.

25.2%

of homes were built since 2000

England average: 17.8%

About a quarter of homes have been built since 2000, well above average, so composite doors and cavity walls are common.

New estates

Newer homes usually have composite doors, which need the right tools and a liner sized to the door. Check your door warranty; a wall flap through a cavity wall is often a good alternative.

Older homes and villages

Victorian terraces near the town centre have back doors that suit a cat flap. Villages around the town have older cottages, some timber-framed or listed, where a door or glass installation is preferred.

How quotes work

  1. Tell us where you'd like the flap and what type of door, glass or wall it is. Photos help.
  2. We confirm availability for your postcode and send a no-obligation quote.
  3. If you go ahead, we agree a date. Glass installations need a replacement unit to be made first.
  4. We don't hand jobs to subcontractors: our own engineers do the fitting.

Questions from homeowners in Maidstone

Will a flap affect my new-build door warranty?

It might. Check with the supplier; a wall flap avoids cutting the door.

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?

Maidstone Borough Council.
