The work
What Birmingham's roofing applications are for, and where.
56% of Birmingham's 910 roofing applications in the last 12 months were single-storey extension, then two-storey or first-floor extension (151).
The work clusters in B29 (59), B28 (46) and B17 (41): those three postcode districts filed 16% of it.
Filings ran at about 95 a month over the last 5 full months, peaking in August 2026 with 198.
That is 42% of everything filed with Birmingham City Council in the year (2,188 applications); the rest is other trades' work, adverts, trees and paperwork.

How many roofing leads are there in Birmingham?
301 in the 90 days to 21 Oct 2026, and 910 in the 12 months to the same date: planning applications filed with Birmingham City Council that match our rules for roofing contractors at high or medium confidence. Refused and withdrawn applications are not counted, and nothing is estimated.
What roofing work gets filed in Birmingham?
In the last 12 months: single-storey extension (511), two-storey or first-floor extension (151), loft conversion or dormer (139) and extension (42). Re-roofs are actionable immediately; loft and extension roofs land 0–5 months after consent.
Which parts of Birmingham file the most roofing work?
By postcode district over the last 12 months: B29 (59), B28 (46), B17 (41), B75 (40) and B13 (39). Your list can cover the whole council, a few districts, or a radius around your yard.
How quickly does Birmingham City Council decide planning applications?
Birmingham City Council decided 75.4% of its applications within the statutory time limit in 2025, and granted 83.7% of its "other" decisions, the government category that holds householder applications (2,324 of 2,778, 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 roofer in Birmingham 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.
How do I get the addresses?
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.
