Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions before getting started
How much does a bespoke catio cost in the UK?
The cost of a bespoke catio varies depending on size, design, and materials. Smaller catios may start from around £1,500, while larger, fully integrated designs can be £6,000+. We provide an initial quotation to help you explore your project before moving forward.
Do you design the catio or do I need to?
We take care of the entire design process. Following your enquiry and consultation, we create a bespoke catio design tailored to your home and your cat’s needs.
Which areas do you cover?
We design and build bespoke catios across Essex, Kent and London, including Brentwood, Chelmsford, Billericay, Sevenoaks, Tunbridge Wells and surrounding areas.
Do you require a deposit to secure a booking?
Yes, a 50% deposit is required to secure your catio build date. The remaining balance is due upon completion. This allows us to schedule your project and begin preparing materials for your bespoke design.
Do I need to provide measurements?
Yes—approximate dimensions and photos of your space help us provide an initial quotation. If you’re unsure, we’re happy to guide you through how to measure your space.
Do you offer a site visit?
Yes, we offer a complimentary on-site consultation for customers who wish to move forward after receiving their initial quotation.
How long does it take to build a catio?
Timescales vary depending on the size and complexity of the project. We will provide an estimated timeline once your design and quotation have been finalised.
What materials do you use?
We use high-quality timber, durable mesh, and protective finishes such as stains or paints to ensure your catio is long-lasting, safe, and visually refined.
Can the catio be designed to match my home?
Absolutely. Every catio we build is bespoke and designed to complement your home, garden, and existing materials.
Do you offer additional features or upgrades?
Yes, we can incorporate bespoke features such as platforms, climbing structures, perches, hideaways, and even integrated planters to enhance your catio.
How do I get started?
