By trade

Planning leads in Glasgow, trade by trade.

Glasgow council took 1,647 planning applications in the 12 months to 21 Oct 2026. 1,028 of them (62%) 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, Glasgow's register favours windows & doors (501), roofing (349) and builders & bricklayers (321): one application usually means work for several trades, so these overlap.

The most active postcode districts are G12 (144), G41 (78) and G2 (55).

About 105 trade-relevant applications a month over the last 5 full months, peaking in August 2026 with 121.
