The work
What Bristol's building applications are for, and where.
46% of Bristol's 722 building applications in the last 12 months were single-storey extension, then extension (130).
The work clusters in BS9 (108), BS7 (80) and BS6 (71): those three postcode districts filed 36% of it.
Filings ran at about 80 a month over the last 5 full months, peaking in June 2026 with 92.
That is 21% of everything filed with Bristol council in the year (3,428 applications); the rest is other trades' work, adverts, trees and paperwork.

How many builder leads are there in Bristol?
239 in the 90 days to 21 Oct 2026, and 722 in the 12 months to the same date: planning applications filed with Bristol council that match our rules for bricklayers & building contractors at high or medium confidence. Refused and withdrawn applications are not counted, and nothing is estimated.
What building work gets filed in Bristol?
In the last 12 months: single-storey extension (332), extension (130), two-storey or first-floor extension (81) and new dwelling or self-build (71). Single-storey shells start 0–3 months after consent; two-storey 0–4.
Which parts of Bristol file the most building work?
By postcode district over the last 12 months: BS9 (108), BS7 (80), BS6 (71), BS3 (64) and BS16 (61). Your list can cover the whole council, a few districts, or a radius around your yard.
How quickly does Bristol council decide planning applications?
The statutory target for a householder application is eight weeks in England and Wales and two months in Scotland. A letter sent the week an application is filed in Bristol lands well before the decision, and long before the homeowner starts ringing round.
Can another builder in Bristol get the same list?
Not from us while you hold it. Exclusive cover is one firm per trade per patch, and we check your patch is free before you pay. The register itself is public, so anyone can read it: what you pay for is the reading, the matching, the deduplication and a list your printer can post the same day.
How do I get the addresses?
Subscribe to Demand Radar for £149 a month. Your first list arrives within 24 hours, then only new homes every month, as a CSV your printer or mailing house can run as it is. Addresses are for letters to "The Owner/Occupier" only: no names, no phone numbers.
