What it means for trades
A permit issued in January 2026 starts a clock. The early trades, site work, concrete, framing and structural steel, are bought in the next weeks; mechanical, electrical and plumbing a few months in; finishes and landscaping close to a year later on a typical build. Builtie tracks each project through those stages and shows it to a trade while its package is still open.
What the Airdrie data covers
The data is Airdrie's own building permits. Neighbouring cities issue their own permits and are not in this count. Airdrie is mostly new subdivisions, so nearly every project counted is a new home. Calgary, next door, has its own feed.
