How bricklayers & masonry contractors use SiteLens

New-build housing in your area

Filter to residential and major schemes within your travel radius, and each new one lands in your morning digest.

Catch extensions and householder work

Extensions are steady, local work. Set a postcode radius and see every one in range.

Quote earlier than the competition

Most bricklayers hear about a job at tender. Planning comes first, and Pro names the developer while the package is still open.

The SiteLens alert builder with the About to start on site preset: reserved matters, discharge of conditions, commencement and prior approval selected, a £1m minimum project value and major applications only.
The “About to start on site” preset in the alert builder. Free on every plan.

Free to start. Pro is £39/mo, or £29/mo billed annually.

Free covers search, application views and one daily alert, with each firm shown by its Companies House number. Pro adds the firm names, the project team on major schemes, published contact details and competitor watch. Team shares one pipeline across up to 5 users.

Frequently asked

How do bricklayers find new-build work early?

Housing schemes appear on the council register at validation, months before the brickwork package is let. Filter to residential and major schemes in your radius and save it as a daily alert.

Can I see how many homes a scheme has?

Yes, where it is stated. On major residential schemes the unit count is read from the application form, and you can filter by a minimum number of units.

When is the best time to call?

Between approval and the start on site. SiteLens can alert you when a scheme is approved, and when a council’s building-control register records a start, free on every plan.
