Pet proofing should protect your home where risk actually happens

Window & Balcony Proofing

Window mesh, balcony mesh, pet-safe grilles, invisible grille-style options, and service yard safety checks for homes where falls or climbing are a concern.

Main Gate & Door Proofing

Cat-proof gate mesh, pet-safe door barriers, main gate gap reduction, and doorway pet gates to reduce escape risk when doors are opened.

Indoor Zone Control

Pet gates, playpen barriers, kitchen restriction, toilet or service yard restriction, and room separation for cats and dogs.

Chew, Scratch & Home Hazard Checks

Loose wires, open shelves, balcony gaps, window access points, sharp edges, rubbish access, and service yard hazards can be reviewed before we recommend a setup.

Don't install the wrong thing in the wrong place

Pet proofing should be based on your pet, your layout, and the way the risky areas are actually used. A cat that climbs window ledges needs a different setup from a dog that pushes past the main gate or chews near the TV console.

Pet Behaviour

We consider whether your pet climbs, jumps, squeezes, chews, pushes barriers, or waits near doors before recommending materials.

Home Risk Areas

Windows, balconies, service yards, main gates, kitchen entries, and bedroom doors are checked against the way your pet moves around the home.

How It Works

1

Share the Risk Areas

Tell us the places your cat or dog tends to approach, climb, squeeze through, or chew.

2

Get Practical Scope Advice

We advise what should be protected first and what may not need work, so the setup stays practical.

3

Confirm Measurement or Site Check

If sizing, fitting, or material selection needs confirmation, we arrange the next check before installation.

4

Install the Pet-Proofing Setup

The agreed mesh, gate, barrier, or home safety setup is installed with fit and daily use in mind.

5

Use Your Home With More Peace of Mind

Windows, doors, and restricted zones can be used with less constant worry about falls, escapes, and unsafe access.

What we check before recommending a setup

Window and balcony risks checked

Window and balcony risks checked
Window access, balcony gaps, mesh fit, grille spacing, ledges and climbing routes are reviewed together before recommending a setup.

Escape points reviewed by pet behaviour

Escape points reviewed by pet behaviour
Gate gaps, door habits and how your cat or dog moves near the entrance are considered before choosing barriers.

Safety without closing off the home

Airflow, cleaning, room separation, loose wires and daily movement are factored in so the setup feels safer without making the home awkward.

Cat Nets and Mesh Window Screens

We install pet mesh and cat nets on windows, doors and gates so your cat can enjoy the air without slipping out. Window screens are fitted within the window frame, so nothing sticks out past the facade and the windows still open and close as normal. You can choose a fixed screen, a removable screen for easy cleaning, or a roller screen that slides away when you do not need it.

For the main door, we fit a mesh panel to the existing gate or a mesh screen to the door opening, so you can leave the door open for ventilation while the cat stays in. We use tear-resistant pet mesh that holds up to claws far better than standard insect netting.

ItemTypical price
Fixed or removable cat mesh, standard HDB window (up to about 20 sq ft)$120 to $200 per window
Roller or retractable pet mesh screen$200 to $350 per window
Larger windows, priced by area$10 to $20 per sq ft
Pet mesh panel added to an existing gate$150 to $280 per gate
Pet mesh screen for a door opening$200 to $380 per door
Minimum booking$150

For comparison, invisible grilles usually cost about $440 to $570 per panel in Singapore, and a full cat-proof gate costs around $780 to $900. Mesh is the lower-cost option for most HDB windows and gates. Send photos and rough measurements of each window or gate on WhatsApp, and we quote before booking. Read our guide to cat-proofing an HDB flat to plan which windows and doors to cover first. If you only need to keep mosquitoes out, standard mosquito nets and window screens cost less.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to pet-proof the whole house?

Not always. Most homes only need the higher-risk areas checked first, such as windows, balconies, service yards, main gates, and rooms where your pet tries to enter or escape.

Is this only for cats?

No. We help with both cat proofing and dog proofing. Cats usually need more window, balcony, and gate checks, while dogs may need stronger zone control, door barriers, or chew-risk planning.

Can you quote without coming down?

We can often give initial advice after understanding the risk areas. If the setup depends on exact sizing, material choice, or fitting conditions, we will recommend measurement or a site check before final confirmation.

Will the setup look ugly?

The recommendation depends on the risk level and the area being protected, but we look for clean options that suit HDB, condo, and landed homes instead of defaulting to bulky fixes.

Can this work for rented homes?

In many cases, yes. Share your rental constraints first so we can check whether renter-friendly, removable, or lower-impact options are suitable for your home.

What areas should I ask about first?

Send windows, balcony, service yard, main gate, kitchen entrance, bedroom doors, and any place where your pet climbs, squeezes, chews, pushes, or tries to escape.

How fast can I get a quote?

Clear details about the risk areas usually help us advise faster. More complex homes may need follow-up questions or a measurement check before a final scope is confirmed.

What is the next step?

Contact us on WhatsApp. We will review the risk areas, suggest a practical setup, and advise whether measurement or a site check is needed.
