What it means for trades
A permit issued this week starts the clock: site work, concrete and site security are bought in the next weeks, framing and structure soon after, mechanical, electrical and plumbing a few months in, finishes later. Builtie stages every project and shows it to a trade while its package is still open.
All weeks: new construction projects by week. Every trade: Austin construction leads by trade.
