Insured and documented
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover. We check leasehold and landlord consent before cutting anything, and we will not cut a communal fire door — that would void its rating and the block's fire strategy.

Overview
Cat flap fitting in Bexleyheath DA6, explained
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Bexleyheath, cat flap fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £75. With 33% of Bexleyheath's 3,586 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in DA6 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How cat flap fitting works in Bexleyheath
Five steps, the same on every DA6 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings on these streets — which is why London Borough of Bexley kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Check the door or wall
Timber, uPVC, composite, glass or masonry — plus what is behind it. A cavity wall or a glazed panel changes the job completely.
Step 2
Set the height
Measured to your cat's chest height, so an older or arthritic cat still uses it in two years' time.
Step 3
Cut and line
Template marked, cut from both faces to avoid blow-out, and the edge lined, capped or sealed.
Step 4
Fit and seal
Flap fitted square, sealed against draughts and rain, and the fixings drawn up evenly so the frame does not bow.
Step 5
Set up and demo
Microchips registered, curfew set if you want one, and the flap left in training mode with the mess cleared.
Why choose us
Why Bexleyheath customers book us
Four things decide whether a DA6 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Crew sized to the job
One fitter for doors and panels; two where a wall tunnel is core-drilled and the debris has to be carried out of a flat. Broadway timed loading and pedestrian zones; driveways elsewhere.
Booked around your day
Most cat flap bookings are within 48 hours and take a single short visit. Bexleyheath (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a DA6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Bexleyheath walls, not generic walls
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, measured on the walk in from Bexleyheath (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map in DA6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Bexleyheath gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, the reality on the streets around Red House, William Morris's home.
Fixed prices
Cat flap fitting prices in Bexleyheath
Fixed prices for DA6 and the rest of Bexley. The material sets the price. Timber is quickest, uPVC and composite need capping, and a masonry wall means core drilling and a lined tunnel.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Timber door | £75 | 45–60 min | Cut, chamfered and sealed so the door edge does not swell in winter. |
| uPVC door panel | £95 | 1–1.5 hrs | The panel is cut in place with the frame protected, and the cut edge capped so water cannot track in. |
| Composite door | £120 | 1–2 hrs | A composite has a foam core between two skins; both faces must be cut cleanly and the core sealed. |
| Brick or block wall, up to 350mm | £190 | 2–3 hrs | Core-drilled both sides with a tunnel liner fitted, so the cavity is never left open. |
| Glass panel — cut-out supplied by a glazier | £110 | 1 hr | Toughened glass cannot be cut on site; we template it, fit the replacement pane and set the flap. |
| Microchip flap set-up and training mode | £25 | 15–20 min | Chips registered, curfew and selective entry configured, and the flap left on training setting. |

Scope
What's included in Bexleyheath
The same scope across DA6, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Standard on Bexley bookings: height set to your cat's chest, not to a standard measurement, arranged with London Borough of Bexley where the kerb needs it
- Cut edges sealed or capped so the door stays weatherproof — including cat flap fitting london
- In Bexleyheath: draught brush and seal fitted and the flap swing tested both ways, the way it is done on Bexleyheath jobs
- On DA6 jobs: microchip flap registered and left in training mode with the swing eased, with 33% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
Not included
- Cutting toughened or laminated glass on site — it must be replaced by a glazier, which we refer on to the right trade in Bexleyheath
- Fire doors in communal areas, where a cut-out would void the fire rating, quoted separately if you need it arranged in DA6
- Structural openings through a lintel or an insulated cavity closer without a survey, and we will say so before the DA6 visit rather than on the day

Bexleyheath DA6 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Bexleyheath — the numbers that actually change a cat flap fitting quote.
Bexleyheath DA6 is inter-war and owner-occupier-led: 33% of homes here are flats and 67% are houses, across 3,586 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 21% private renting against 74% owner-occupied, most DA6 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Bexleyheath substrates run to some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, measured on the walk in from Bexleyheath (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Bexleyheath gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, the reality on the streets around Red House, William Morris's home is the mistake that costs a DA6 customer twice.
The Broadway shopping centre, the clock tower and William Morris's Red House. That character decides the practical detail of cat flap fitting here far more than the borough boundary does. Bexleyheath is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: broadway timed loading and pedestrian zones; driveways elsewhere. Bexleyheath (Southeastern) is the nearest station, and one fitter for doors and panels; two where a wall tunnel is core-drilled and the debris has to be carried out of a flat.
