Dorset Trade Signals turns public planning activity across Dorset, BCP and Hampshire into a short, ranked list of roofing and building opportunities — scored, prioritised and ready to act on.
How it works
We check public planning sources across Dorset, Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole and Hampshire on a consistent rhythm — so new applications and decisions surface without you trawling council portals.
Each opportunity is matched to roofing or building work, scored on project type, timing and other useful clues, and placed in an A, B or C priority band.
Subscribers download a printable PDF pack with full addresses, register references and a suggested angle for the first conversation.
Why timing matters
An extension, loft conversion or re-roof almost always shows up on a planning register before a homeowner starts collecting quotes. That window is where the margin is.
Mainstream job-finder sites sell the same customer enquiry to several trades at once, after the shopping has started. We point you at the planning signal earlier, with the project context you need for a sensible first conversation — and your list is never shared or resold.
Coverage
Coverage follows the public planning registers of the places local contractors actually work, and grows as more sources meet our standard.
All coverage is sourced from lawful public planning registers.
