Cabinetry and Millwork Construction Leads in Fort Worth (2026): 309 Projects in the Award Window
To find cabinetry construction leads in Fort Worth, work from building permits and time the call to the build stage. On October 9, 2026, 309 permitted projects in the City of Fort Worth were still at the point where cabinetry is awarded. The builder or developer awards cabinetry, often with an interior designer or kitchen designer specifying it; on custom homes the owner decides. Builtie reads the permits, estimates each project's stage and attaches the builder or general contractor with a verified decision maker.
The same four steps, whether the buyer is a builder, a designer, an owner or a company you want to acquire.
How many cabinetry projects are open in Fort Worth right now
| Measure | Fort Worth |
|---|---|
| Projects in the cabinetry award window | 309 |
| New buildings / renovations and alterations | 285 / 24 |
| Permitted in the last 90 days | 13 |
| Rank among 25 markets for cabinetry | 12 of 25 |
| Newest permit in the Fort Worth feed | October 7, 2026 |
92% of them are new buildings and 8% are renovations, additions or alterations, so most of this work is awarded by builders and developers on ground-up projects. Only 4% were permitted in the last 90 days, and that is expected: cabinetry is bought late, so a project permitted a year ago is only now reaching the stage where the cabinetry contract is decided. Fort Worth ranks 12 of 25 markets Builtie covers for cabinetry, behind San Antonio (410 projects).
A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when cabinetry is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $10k of cabinetry work. Trade sub-permits are grouped into their parent project, so this is a count of projects, not permits.

What the Fort Worth data covers
The data is Fort Worth's own building permits. Neighbouring cities issue their own permits and are not in this count. Arlington, Dallas and the rest of the Dallas-Fort Worth area are separate permit offices. Builtie looks up the owner company and its contacts behind Fort Worth permits rather than reading a builder off the permit.
If you work from Keller, Benbrook, Haltom City and the rest of Tarrant County, Builtie shows you this feed as your nearest covered market; those cities' own permits are not in the count above.
