Our Services

Kennelbuild provides tailored building solutions for kennels, catteries, and other animal welfare facilities. We are engaged at various stages in the project’s lifecycle (RIBA Plan of Works) and have successfully delivered a wide range of scopes, from full turnkey developments to supply and installation only packages.

  • “Intelligent design tailored to animal welfare and operational efficiency.”

    Kennelbuild’s in-house design team works closely with clients from concept through to technical detail. Our architectural and engineering professionals are experienced in RIBA-aligned processes and understand the nuances of DEFRA, NPCC, and charity standards. Every project is bespoke—balancing animal welfare, site logistics, and regulatory compliance. Whether designing a secure police dog facility or a cattery with home-from-home comforts, our design process is collaborative, practical, and purpose-led.

  • “High-spec modular systems built in our own factory for quality and speed.”

    We don’t rely on third-party suppliers, our kennel and cattery systems are precision-manufactured in our own specialist facility in Cheshire. This allows us to control lead times, cost, and quality. Our components are designed for longevity, hygiene, and low maintenance, incorporating materials and detailing that support safe animal care and easy cleaning. By fabricating off-site, we reduce disruption during installation and accelerate project timelines.

  • “Expert construction and fit-out by our dedicated site teams.”

    Our nationwide site teams are trained specialists in installing animal care facilities, from complex refurbishments to large-scale new builds. We work safely, efficiently, and to programme—often coordinating with live site operations to avoid disruption to staff, animals, or visitors. As a turnkey provider, we ensure full integration between our designs, factory-built systems, and on-site works. The result? Smooth delivery, fewer surprises, and facilities that perform from day one.

  • “Kennelbuild demonstrated a deep understanding of operational policing requirements and delivered a facility that not only meets national welfare standards, but genuinely supports the work of our handlers and dogs. Their team was proactive, detail-focused, and a pleasure to work with.”
