What the work is in Exeter
Application types in Exeter
Who you can contact in Exeter
96% of Exeter leads name an agent, architect or planning consultant on the public record, and Strukta links each one to the company behind it. That is who to approach: they are appointed early, they know the budget and programme, and they are usually the person choosing which trades get asked to price. The rest name only the applicant, which still tells you who owns the scheme and where it is.
Turning a Exeter application into work
Get in before the shortlist exists
An application in Exeter is typically submitted weeks or months before anyone prices the work. Approach the named agent at validation and you are a known name when the team is picked, rather than a cold email arriving alongside twenty others after the decision notice.
Approach the agent, not the applicant
96% of Exeter records name an agent, architect or planning consultant. They are appointed early, they know the budget and the programme, and on most schemes they decide which trades get asked to price. The applicant owns the scheme but often has not thought about subcontractors yet.
Filter to the work you actually want
23 leads is more than anyone can chase. Set your trade, the sizes of job worth your time, and how far you travel, and Exeter narrows to the handful that fit. The rest stay searchable without filling your inbox.
Watch the neighbouring boroughs too
Most firms working in Exeter also price work next door. Coverage runs across every UK council, so widening your patch is a filter change rather than another subscription.

Frequently asked questions
How many construction leads are there in Exeter?
Strukta is tracking 23 live construction leads in Exeter, in South West, each one a planning application for work someone intends to build. The figure updates every day as new applications are validated.
What information does Strukta show for Exeter projects?
For each Exeter project you get the sector, planning stage, key dates and the agent or applicant on the record, linked to the companies and contacts behind it and back to the public planning portal.
Can I track new Exeter planning applications automatically?
Yes. Save Exeter as a search, set your trade and stages, and Strukta surfaces new and updated matches in your daily inbox and weekly digest.
How does Strukta help me act on Exeter leads?
Strukta ranks the live records that match your trade and patch, links them to the companies and contacts behind the work, adds Researcher briefs where you need more context, and gives you saved records, notes and next actions to keep follow-up moving.
Are Exeter planning applications already approved?
Mostly not, and that is the point. The large majority of live records in Exeter are at an early planning stage, which means the scheme is real and being prepared but the work has not been let yet. That is the window where a trade can get in front of the agent before a shortlist exists. If you would rather wait for certainty, filter to decided applications instead and take the smaller, later, more contested list.
When is the right time to contact someone about a Exeter application?
Sooner than most trades do. An application is usually submitted weeks or months before anyone prices the work, so contacting the agent at validation puts you in the conversation while the team is still being chosen. Waiting for a decision notice means arriving at the same moment as everyone else who watched the same portal.
Is this different from searching the Exeter planning portal myself?
The portal is the source and it is free, so the honest answer is that you can do this by hand. The difference is what happens after you find something: Strukta covers Exeter alongside every other council you work in, ranks what fits your trade instead of listing everything, links each record to the companies and contacts behind it, and tells you when something new appears rather than waiting for you to check. If you only ever work in one borough and enjoy the search, the portal is enough.
Do I get contact details for Exeter leads?
You get whoever is named on the public record, which is usually the agent, architect or planning consultant, linked to the company behind them. Not every application names someone, and Strukta shows you which do before you spend time on them. Direct emails and phone numbers are revealed per contact from your plan's monthly allowance, so you are never paying for details you did not ask for.
Does Strukta cover tenders in Exeter too?
Yes. Public tenders from Contracts Finder and Find a Tender sit alongside the planning records, so a Exeter school refurbishment shows up whether it arrives as a planning application or as a published contract notice. Both feed the same inbox, ranked against the same trade profile.
