For builders & trades

Turn planning activity into local building leads

Every week, PlanWatch reads Ireland's planning applications and hands you a ranked pipeline of building opportunities in your area — scored, explained and ready to act on. Search stays free; Lead Packs do the legwork.

How it works

From planning data to a weekly pipeline

No scraping, no spreadsheets, no chasing notices. We do the watching and the scoring — you get the leads.

Step 1

We watch your area

PlanWatch tracks every planning application across the authorities you care about — new builds, extensions, commencements and grants — the moment they're lodged or decided.

Step 2

We score the opportunities

Each application is ranked into an opportunity score — weighing commencements, grants, project size and how well it matches your trade — with a plain-English reason for why it made the cut.

Step 3

You get a weekly Lead Pack

Your ranked leads land in your dashboard and inbox every week — sorted, tagged and ready to act on. Open it Monday, work it all week.

What's in a lead

Every lead, already qualified

Not a raw notice dump — a scored, tagged opportunity you can size up in seconds and decide whether it's worth a call.

  • An opportunity score so you work the best leads first
  • Trade tags that match the work to what you do
  • A directional value band to gauge project size
  • A plain-English reason it's a lead worth your time

Builder Kitchen Windows Heating

Why this is a lead

Permission granted three weeks ago on a sizeable extension — a live project at the stage where a builder, kitchen fitter and window supplier all get specified.

Who it's for

If a planning grant means a phone could ring on your side of the project, Lead Packs are for you.

Honest by design

  • Value bands are directional, not quotes. They're a rough sense of project size from the application — a way to prioritise leads, never a price we put on someone's home.
  • Outreach goes through the professionals. Leads point you to the named agent or architect on the application — a business contact who chose to be on the public record — not to cold-contacting homeowners.
  • Everything traces back to the public record. Every lead is built from the planning authorities' own published data. We surface and rank it; we don't invent it.
