Architects for Homes and Veterinary Practices
Veterinary Practice
Design
With specialist expertise in veterinary architecture, Wagtail Architects guide practices through every stage of the design journey. We work across all stages, from initial ideas to planning, building regulations and construction. Our work is rooted in a deep understanding of how veterinary teams operate, what clients need, and how thoughtful design can support wellbeing, efficiency, and growth. Whether you're refurbishing, adding a CT scanner or building a new practice from the ground up, I offer clear, collaborative support with the technical expertise to help you make confident decisions and create spaces that meet your needs.
Start Up Veterinary Practices
Supporting Your Veterinary Practice from Day One
Starting a new veterinary clinic is a complex and exciting venture. We work closely with founders to turn their vision into a fully functioning practice, guiding them through site selection, spatial planning, compliance, and design that supports both clinical staff and client comfort. With experience in veterinary-specific workflows and regulations, we help you make confident choices early on, avoid costly missteps, and create a space that reflects your values and ambitions. Whether you're launching your first practice or expanding into a new location, we offer clear, practical support every step of the way.
Extension & Refurbishment
Upgrading Your Practice for Modern Veterinary Care
As veterinary medicine advances, your building needs to keep pace. We work with practices to reconfigure, expand and extend existing spaces to support new clinical capabilities. From installing CT scanners and dental suites to expanding prep areas and improving staff facilities. Every design is tailored to your workflow, regulatory needs, and long-term goals, with careful planning to minimise disruption during works. Whether you're adapting to new technology or growing your team, We offer clear, experienced guidance to help you make the most of your space and investment.
New Build & Relocation
New Build and Relocation for Growing Veterinary Practices
Relocating or building a new veterinary facility is a rare opportunity to rethink how your space works and how it could work better. We begin by understanding how your current practice operates: what flows well, where bottlenecks occur, and what your team and clients need most. This insight shapes a design that’s not only compliant and future-ready, but tailored to your clinical ambitions, whether that includes CT imaging, or multi-disciplinary care. For established practices and veterinary groups, we offer strategic, end-to-end support to help you create a space that elevates your service and reflects your values.
