Fixed prices

Cat flap fitting prices in Westminster

These are the Westminster floor prices for a cat flap fitting. The material sets the price. Timber is quickest, uPVC and composite need capping, and a masonry wall means core drilling and a lined tunnel. In this borough the additional variables are the Congestion Charge, ULEZ and permit-only frontages, and each is quoted separately so you can see it.
Cat flap fitting price guide for Westminster
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Timber door£7545–60 minCut, chamfered and sealed so the door edge does not swell in winter.
uPVC door panel£951–1.5 hrsThe panel is cut in place with the frame protected, and the cut edge capped so water cannot track in.
Composite door£1201–2 hrsA 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£1902–3 hrsCore-drilled both sides with a tunnel liner fitted, so the cavity is never left open.
Glass panel — cut-out supplied by a glazier£1101 hrToughened glass cannot be cut on site; we template it, fit the replacement pane and set the flap.
Microchip flap set-up and training mode£2515–20 minChips registered, curfew and selective entry configured, and the flap left on training setting.

Prices are labour and fitting materials; the flap itself can be supplied at cost or you can provide your own. Glass cut-outs are quoted by a glazier and shown separately. Where a lease or a landlord consent is needed we will tell you before booking rather than after. Permits, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge where they apply are itemised.

Working in Westminster

Why Westminster is not a generic London job

The Palace of Westminster and Big Ben is the landmark; the working detail below is what actually changes the price and the method in Westminster.

The housing stock

What our crews walk into in Westminster is grade-listed stucco terraces, mansion blocks, peabody estates and prime new-build around victoria, and the mix changes street by street — Belgravia (SW1), Covent Garden (WC2) and Fitzrovia (W1) each behave differently on the day.

Access, parking and permits

On the ground, congestion charge, ulez, dense cpzs operating to 18:30 and beyond — most jobs need a suspended bay or dispensation. Locally that means estate parking rules, mews arches with height limits and listed staircases requiring protection and pedestrianised piazza with timed vehicle access only, and narrow stairs above shops. Part of Westminster sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, so the charge is quoted as its own line rather than hidden in the labour rate.

Westminster City Council rules

Leases across Westminster restrict drilling into party and structural walls. We check what the wall actually is before we start, and where consent is needed we say so rather than fixing anyway.

How the borough got this way

Westminster took its present shape because grew from the abbey and royal court; the grosvenor and portman estates laid out the stucco squares still standing today.

Scope

What's included in Westminster

The same scope everywhere in the borough, whether the job is in Belgravia or Westminster and Whitehall.

Included in the price

  • Height set to your cat's chest, not to a standard measurement
  • Cut edges sealed or capped so the door stays weatherproof
  • Draught brush and seal fitted and the flap swing tested both ways
  • Microchip flap registered and left in training mode with the swing eased

Not included

  • Cutting toughened or laminated glass on site — it must be replaced by a glazier
  • Fire doors in communal areas, where a cut-out would void the fire rating
  • Structural openings through a lintel or an insulated cavity closer without a survey

Local questions

Cat flap fitting in Westminster — your questions

  • How much does a cat flap fitting cost in Westminster?

    Timber door starts at £75 in Westminster, and the ladder runs up to £25 for the largest job on the table above. The material sets the price. Timber is quickest, uPVC and composite need capping, and a masonry wall means core drilling and a lined tunnel. Part of the borough is inside the Congestion Charge zone, so a £15 daily charge is added as its own line when the job falls inside the charging hours.

  • Which Westminster postcodes do you cover?

    We cover the whole borough: NW1, NW8, SW1, SW7, W1, W2, W9, WC1 and WC2. On the ground that includes Belgravia, Covent Garden, Fitzrovia, Knightsbridge, Maida Vale and Marylebone.

  • How quickly can you get to Westminster?

    Most cat flap bookings are within 48 hours and take a single short visit. Central London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.

  • What about parking and permits in Westminster?

    Congestion Charge, ULEZ, dense CPZs operating to 18:30 and beyond — most jobs need a suspended bay or dispensation. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with Westminster City Council and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.

  • Do you work in Westminster flats and blocks with no lift?

    Yes. Grade-listed stucco terraces, mansion blocks, Peabody estates and prime new-build around Victoria is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.

  • Are you insured and licensed for work in Westminster?

    Fitters carry £1m 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. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what Westminster City Council tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.

  • Who turns up, and with what?

    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. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Westminster postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.

  • What is not included?

    Cutting toughened or laminated glass on site — it must be replaced by a glazier, Fire doors in communal areas, where a cut-out would void the fire rating and Structural openings through a lintel or an insulated cavity closer without a survey. If something on that list turns up in Westminster, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

I booked the services for putting together some new bedroom furniture. This was agreed for 3 pm. I got a call at 3pm to say they were going to be late and be there at 5, they arrived at 5:30. The workmanship and the guys who fitted it was excellent and they were very friendly… Read in full →
