The most comprehensive residential construction activity data available

Our self-service data portal gives you unparalleled access to the most in-depth residential construction information. Our Building Inspectors carry out around one million inspections each year, gathering data on a plot basis to help track the pace of construction including:

  • Registrations - when a developer has registered their intent to build a new home
  • Starts - when the construction of a home begins
  • Completions - when a plot has been signed off by NHBC and is ready to be sold.
  • Key stage inspection - The number of homes reaching a key inspection stage in each period includes both houses and apartments. Stages included are Start, Superstructure, First-fix and Pre-handover

International Territorial Level (ITL) 2

International Territorial Level (ITL) 3

International Territorial Levels (ITLs) are a standard for referencing the geographical sub-divisions of the UK for statistical purposes, used by the Office for National Statistics (ONS). ITL 2 divides the UK into about 40 areas with population ranges between 800,000 and 3,000,000. ITL 3 is even more detailed, dividing the UK into over 170 areas with population ranges between 150,000 and 800,000. The next review of ITLs by the ONS is scheduled to be in 2024. More information on ITLs.
