How m&e contractors use SiteLens
Target M&E-heavy projects only
Commercial and industrial schemes carry the M&E budget. Filter by category and scale so householder work drops out.
Reach the client before tender
The firms’ Companies House numbers and recent public awards are free. On Pro, see the applicant, agent, directors and contacts.
Major refurbishments and conversions
Change of use and office-to-residential conversions mean M&E refurbishment work. Set an alert for commercial change of use in your region.

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
Does SiteLens name the M&E consultant on a scheme?
On Pro, for major schemes whose planning documents name the M&E or building services consultant. Every plan shows whether the role is named.
What M&E work shows up in planning?
Change of use, office-to-residential conversions, new-build schemes, data centres, industrial units and fit-outs that change the outside of a building. Purely internal fit-outs often need no planning permission, so they do not appear.
Can I filter to the bigger commercial schemes?
Yes. Filter by category, such as commercial or industrial, show major schemes only, set a minimum value band or floor area, and save the search as a daily alert.
