FurrowLead checks the council’s planning register overnight. New applications are in your feed by the morning, usually days before anyone rings round for prices.

Do I get the homeowner’s details?

No. Homeowners are private individuals, so their details aren’t shown. You get the agent or architect, who’s usually the one putting the job out to price.

£29 a month for your first county, which covers all ten Greater Manchester councils, and £6 for each extra county. Every trade is included. Try it free for 7 days, no card needed.
