How Roofers Find Work From
Every planning application for an extension, loft conversion, or new build needs a roofer. JobFilter scans approved applications across 400+ councils and flags roofing work before the homeowner starts getting quotes. You're on the scaffold before anyone else knows the job exists.
NO CHASING
NO COMPETING
REAL UK LEADS
STAY IN CONTROL
THE PROBLEM ROOFERS FACE
YOU'RE WAITING FOR WORK INSTEAD OF FINDING IT.
STORM DAMAGE WORK IS REACTIVE
You wait for the phone to ring after a storm. The roofer who gets there first gets the job. But you can't be everywhere at once.
NEW ROOF ENQUIRIES GO TO DIRECTORIES
Homeowners post "need new roof" on Checkatrade and get 6 quotes. The cheapest wins. You're a proper roofer — you can't compete with a bloke with a ladder and some felt.
PLANNING-APPROVED WORK IS INVISIBLE TO MOST ROOFERS
An extension gets approved. The homeowner needs a roof on it in 3-6 months. But no roofer knows about it because planning data isn't on any job board.
FLAT ROOF AND VELUX JOBS ARE HARD TO FIND
Dormer conversions, flat roof replacements, Velux installs — these show up in planning applications but never make it to lead platforms.
THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE

HOW IT WORKS FOR ROOFERS
THREE STEPS. REAL JOBS. NO BULLSHIT.
Enter your postcode
Tell us where you roof. We scan planning approvals, energy efficiency signals, and council contracts within your working radius.
Roofing signals get scored
Extensions needing new roofs, loft conversions with dormers, flat roof replacements, Velux installs — flagged and scored by value and urgency.
Gold leads fire to WhatsApp
Planning approved for a two-storey extension in your patch? That's a roofing package worth £8k-£20k. You get the alert before the homeowner posts the job.
WHAT A ROOFERS LEAD LOOKS LIKE
THIS IS WHAT HITS YOUR SCREEN BEFORE ANYONE ELSE SEES IT.
Not a form submission. Not a shared lead. An official signal — scored, filtered, and sent to you because it matches your trade.
GOLD LEAD
Dormer loft conversion — full re-roof required
WHERE THE JOBS COME FROM
THREE SOURCES. ROOFERS-SPECIFIC SIGNALS.
Planning applications
Every extension, loft conversion, dormer, and new build needs roofing work. We scan 400+ councils and flag approved applications that need a roofer — before the job is posted anywhere.
Energy signals
Properties with poor energy ratings often need roof insulation, flat roof replacements, or full re-roofs as part of retrofit upgrades. Verified energy signals show which properties are likely candidates.
Council contracts
School roof replacements, social housing re-roofing programmes, council building maintenance — public tenders with named buyers, values, and deadlines.
WHATSAPP BODYGUARD
GOLD LEADS HIT YOUR PHONE. NOT YOUR INBOX. NOT A DASHBOARD.
When a job scores Gold for your trade, it fires to WhatsApp within minutes. You're on the tools — you don't need another app to check.
