The work

What Solihull's building applications are for, and where.

29% of Solihull's 653 building applications in the last 12 months were single-storey extension, then extension (154).

The work clusters in B91 (146), B90 (142) and B92 (132): those three postcode districts filed 64% of it.

Filings ran at about 70 a month over the last 5 full months, peaking in July 2026 with 81.

That is 49% of everything filed with Solihull council in the year (1,328 applications); the rest is other trades' work, adverts, trees and paperwork.

By postcode district over the last 12 months: B91 (146), B90 (142), B92 (132), B93 (98) and CV7 (40). Your list can cover the whole council, a few districts, or a radius around your yard.

How quickly does Solihull council decide planning applications?

Solihull council decided 86.1% of its applications within the statutory time limit in 2025, and granted 94.2% of its "other" decisions, the government category that holds householder applications (956 of 1,015, 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 Solihull 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.

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.
