1,280 applications filed with Cornwall council in the 90 days to 21 Oct 2026 mean work for at least one trade: extensions, lofts, new windows, roofs, driveways. Pick your trade below, see your numbers, and get the addresses posted to you every month.
Cornwall council took 5,508 planning applications in the 12 months to 21 Oct 2026. 3,056 of them (55%) 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, Cornwall's register favours windows & doors (1,592), roofing (1,457) and builders & bricklayers (1,418): one application usually means work for several trades, so these overlap.
The most active postcode districts are TR11 (211), TR1 (133) and TR3 (131).
About 398 trade-relevant applications a month over the last 5 full months, peaking in September 2026 with 473.
One application usually means work for several trades, so the rows overlap.
As filed with the council, newest first, tagged with the trade whose list it lands on. Subscribers get the full site address and planning reference for every one.

1,280 in the 90 days to 21 Oct 2026 and 3,056 in the 12 months to the same date: planning applications filed with Cornwall council that match at least one trade's rules at high or medium confidence. Refused and withdrawn applications are left out.
Over the last 12 months: skip hire & waste (1,803), electricians (1,686), windows & doors (1,592), flooring (1,492), plastering & decorating (1,492) and roofing (1,457). Most applications mean work for more than one trade: an extension needs a builder, a roofer, windows, electrics and plastering.
By postcode district, over the last 12 months: TR11 (211), TR1 (133), TR3 (131), EX23 (122) and PL14 (108).
Cornwall council decided 94.5% of its applications within the statutory time limit in 2025, and granted 97% of its "other" decisions, the government category that holds householder applications (2,567 of 2,646, 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.
Cornwall council's own public planning register, read every day. We match each application against the trade rules your list uses, drop refused and withdrawn applications, and keep one line per household. We never sell names or phone numbers.
