The work
What Leeds' building applications are for, and where.
63% of Leeds' 1,504 building applications in the last 12 months were single-storey extension, then two-storey or first-floor extension (256).
The work clusters in LS17 (155), LS16 (137) and LS8 (107): those three postcode districts filed 27% of it.
Filings ran at about 158 a month over the last 5 full months, peaking in June 2026 with 179.
That is 30% of everything filed with Leeds council in the year (5,094 applications); the rest is other trades' work, adverts, trees and paperwork.

How many builder leads are there in Leeds?
411 in the 90 days to 21 Oct 2026, and 1,504 in the 12 months to the same date: planning applications filed with Leeds 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 Refused and withdrawn applications are not counted, and nothing is estimated.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 Leeds?
In the last 12 months: single-storey extension (955), two-storey or first-floor extension (256), extension (86) and outbuilding or annexe or detached garage (63). Single-storey shells start 0–3 months after consent; two-storey 0–4.
Which parts of Leeds file the most building work?
By postcode district over the last 12 months: LS17 (155), LS16 (137), LS8 (107), LS28 (106) and LS26 (82). Your list can cover the whole council, a few districts, or a radius around your yard.
How quickly does Leeds council decide planning applications?
Leeds council decided 90.3% of its applications within the statutory time limit in 2025, and granted 83.3% of its "other" decisions, the government category that holds householder applications (2,372 of 2,849, MHCLG PS2 figures). The target for a householder application is eight weeks, so a letter sent the week it is filed lands well before the decision.
Can another builder in Leeds 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.
