LeadLinka tracks planning approvals across every UK council in real time. Get in front of new construction projects weeks before they appear on any bidding platform.
By the time a construction project appears on Contracts Finder, the Chest, or any other bidding portal, it has already attracted a dozen competing quotes. You are bidding on price alone with no first-mover advantage and no relationship built.
Planning approval is the earliest public signal that a project is definitely happening. LeadLinka surfaces those approvals the moment they are posted, giving you the chance to make contact before any tender is ever issued.
Three steps from planning approval to a warm conversation with a potential client.
LeadLinka automatically ingests approved planning applications from all 400+ local authorities across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland every day.
Set your area of operation, the types of work you want (new builds, extensions, commercial, industrial) and let the platform surface only the projects that match your trade.
Contact the applicant directly, before a procurement process starts. At this stage you are having a conversation, not competing on a spreadsheet.
Filter by council, region, or radius. See only the projects in the areas you actually work.
Instantly spot new builds, commercial developments, demolitions, extensions, and more.
Know exactly when a project cleared planning so you can time your outreach perfectly.
Bookmark promising projects and keep your pipeline organised within the platform.
Search across all planning descriptions for the specific work types relevant to your business.
Algorithmically ranked opportunities so you prioritise the best leads, not just the most recent.
Any construction business looking to grow its pipeline without relying purely on referrals or expensive bidding platforms.
LeadLinka ingests new planning decisions on a rolling daily basis. Most approved applications appear in the platform within 24 hours of being published by the council.
We cover all 400+ local planning authorities across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. If you work anywhere in the UK, your area is covered.
Those platforms only show projects already in procurement, where a tender has been formally issued. LeadLinka shows you projects at the planning approval stage, weeks or months earlier, before any formal procurement process starts.
