Re-roofs, dormers and extension roofs — listed on the public register before anyone rings a roofer.
Re-roof applications ARE the roofing job. Loft conversions scaffold the roofline within weeks of consent. Extensions need a roof 2–5 months in. All of it is in the register, dated.
12,722 matching applications hit the UK register in the last 30 days — filtered down to just the councils or postcode areas you cover.
Why the register beats every other lead source
A re-roof runs £6,000–£20,000; dormer structures more. Every consented one in your patch, every month.
Exactly what we match for roofing contractors
This is the real matching table, not marketing. Every lead row you receive shows its trigger, demand window and confidence — and the reasoning is printed on the row so you can sanity-check every address before it's mailed.

Re-roofs are actionable immediately; loft and extension roofs land 0–5 months after consent. Demand windows are measured from the expected decision date. Refused and withdrawn applications are dropped automatically. How the demand windows are built →
