By trade

Planning leads in Barnet, trade by trade.

Barnet council took 3,773 planning applications in the 12 months to 21 Oct 2026. 2,481 of them (66%) mean work for at least one trade; the rest are adverts, trees, conditions and paperwork, and they never reach a list.

Of the main building trades, Barnet's register favours windows & doors (1,707), builders & bricklayers (1,621) and roofing (1,365): one application usually means work for several trades, so these overlap.

The most active postcode districts are NW11 (362), EN5 (259) and NW7 (237).

About 283 trade-relevant applications a month over the last 5 full months, peaking in June 2026 with 357.

Descriptions are the applicant’s own words from the public register. We leave out any row that names a person or carries a house number.

Timing

The plans are public weeks before Barnet decides.

A homeowner tells the council first. By the time they search for a firm, they’re already getting quotes. Your letter can land in the first week.
