About our Dorchester service
Dorchester is Dorset's historic county town with Roman and Thomas Hardy connections, an administrative and healthcare centre with the planned Poundbury extension on its western side. Our team handles cat enclosure installation right across Dorchester, including Stinsford and Martinstown to Broadmayne.
We deal with cat enclosure installation for cat owners, households in busy areas, flat owners with outside space and rescue and boarding catteries in Dorchester every week. Jobs are done properly, at a clear price and completed when agreed.
Our Dorchester jobs cover Georgian and Victorian townhouses, cottages and Poundbury new-builds. Every property brings its own access and timing considerations, so every quote is based on your details.
Urban foxes are common around Dorchester, so we use strong welded mesh and seal the base of every enclosure.
Across Dorset, many gardens have shared fences, so we usually suggest a quick chat with neighbours before fitting cat-proof toppers.

Cat enclosures in Dorchester: FAQs

How much should I expect to pay for cat enclosure installation in Dorchester?
Every job is different. Your price come down to the scope of the work and access and timing, so send your details for an exact fixed price. Our cost guide gives typical UK prices.
How soon can you book a job in Dorchester?
We aim to reply to Dorchester enquiries the same day, and the majority of bookings can be scheduled within one to two weeks. Urgent work can often be fitted in sooner.
Do I need planning permission for a cat enclosure?
Often not. In England, a freestanding catio in a back garden is usually treated as an outbuilding under permitted development, which allows it without planning permission if it stays behind the front of the house, is no more than 2.5 metres high when within 2 metres of a boundary, and together with other outbuildings covers no more than half the garden. A catio attached to the house may be treated as an extension instead. Flats, listed buildings and some conservation areas have tighter rules, and Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have their own, so check with your council if in doubt.
