31% of them are new buildings and 69% are renovations, additions or alterations, so most of it sits in renovations and fit-outs, where the owner, a designer or a renovation contractor often makes the call. Because concrete is bought early, the 112 projects permitted in the last 90 days are the ones to call first; 88% of the count is that recent. Toronto ranks 11 of 25 markets Builtie covers for concrete, behind San Antonio (160 projects).

A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when concrete is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $15k of concrete work. Trade sub-permits are grouped into their parent project, so this is a count of projects, not permits.

What the Toronto data covers

Builtie's Toronto data is the amalgamated City of Toronto, including Etobicoke, North York, Scarborough, East York and York. Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham and the rest of the GTA issue their own permits and are not in the feed today, so a Toronto count is not a GTA count. Toronto states a construction cost on about a third of 2026 permits.

If you work from Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Oakville and the rest of the GTA, Builtie shows you this feed as your nearest covered market; those cities' own permits are not in the count above.
