SME Contractors & Builders

Win more local projects — without competing on price.

We find homeowners and developers with approved planning applications in your area, qualify the opportunity, and book you the meeting. You’re not one of ten builders quoting the same job.

The problem

Lead sites sell you competition. We sell you exclusivity.

Racing to the bottom on price

You're one of ten builders quoting the same job from a lead site. The only way to win is to be cheapest — and that kills your margins.

Relying on word of mouth

Referrals keep you busy some months, then nothing. You can't forecast revenue when your pipeline depends on who talks to who.

Wasting time on tyre-kickers

You drive an hour to quote a job and never hear back. Half the leads you chase aren't ready, aren't funded, or aren't serious.

No time to do your own marketing

You know you should be doing more outreach, but you're on-site all day. Marketing falls to evenings and weekends — or doesn't happen at all.

How it works

From planning approval to your diary — in days, not months.

1

We find live projects in your area

Using planning application data and local market intelligence, we identify homeowners, developers, and architects with approved or in-progress projects that match the type of work you do — extensions, new builds, refurbs, loft conversions.

2

We reach out on your behalf

Personalised outreach across email, LinkedIn, and phone — written in your voice, referencing the specific project. No generic spam. Every message looks like it came from your team.

3

We qualify the opportunity

Before a meeting hits your diary, we confirm the project scope, budget range, and timeline. If it doesn't match your criteria, it doesn't get through.

4

You show up and quote

A qualified meeting with a homeowner or developer who has planning approval, a realistic budget, and wants to talk to a builder this week. You quote the job. We find the next one.

What you get

Qualified meetings — not a spreadsheet of phone numbers.

Exclusive project meetings

Meetings with homeowners and developers who have live, funded projects in your area. You're the only builder they're meeting through us.

Planning-data targeting

We use approved planning applications to find projects at the right stage — not cold leads from a directory, but people who need a builder now.

Multi-channel outreach

Email, LinkedIn, and phone — coordinated campaigns in your voice so prospects think they're hearing from your office, not an agency.

Full qualification

Scope, budget range, and timeline confirmed before the meeting lands in your diary. No more driving an hour to quote a job that doesn't exist.

CRM & reporting

Every prospect, conversation, and meeting tracked in a shared dashboard. You see exactly what's in your pipeline at any time.

Follow-up management

Quotes sent but no response? We follow up for you — chasing the decisions so you can stay on-site building.

FAQ

Questions builders ask us.

I've been burned by lead-gen sites before. How is this different?

Lead-gen sites sell the same lead to multiple builders and charge whether or not the lead is any good. We don't sell leads — we book exclusive, qualified meetings. You're the only contractor talking to that homeowner or developer. And we confirm scope, budget, and timeline before the meeting reaches your diary.

I only work in a specific area. Can you target that?

Yes — we prospect by postcode, local authority, or radius from your base. If you only do work within 20 miles of your yard, that's where we look. We use planning data, so we know exactly where approved projects are.

I don't have a sales team — it's just me and my guys on site.

That's exactly why this works. We handle the entire outreach and booking process. All you need to do is show up to the meeting, quote the job, and get back on-site. We'll manage the follow-up too, if you want us to.

What kind of projects will you find me?

Whatever you tell us to look for. Extensions, loft conversions, new builds, refurbs, design & build — we filter by project type, size, and stage. If you only want residential projects over £100k with planning approved, that's what we target.

How many meetings can I expect per month?

It depends on your area, the project types you want, and how far you're willing to travel. Most SME contractors we work with aim for 6–12 qualified meetings per month. We'll give you a realistic volume estimate on the pipeline audit call.

What does it cost?

We charge per qualified meeting — not per lead, not per day. You pay for meetings with project owners who match your criteria and actually show up. Book a pipeline audit and we'll give you a transparent quote based on your target area and project types.
