Construction Decision-Maker Contacts in Toronto: Builders, GCs and Who Awards the Trades

The decision makers on Toronto construction projects are the builders, developers and general contractors behind each permit, and the person at each firm who awards the trades. 553 of them pulled a new-build permit in the last 12 months. Builtie resolves the company from the permit, finds that person, and verifies them by the employer they declare before you ever call.

Who awards the work in Toronto

Toronto permits are filed for the project, so the name on a new permit is usually the builder or general contractor who awards the trades.

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.

How many builders are active, and how reachable they are

Only new-build permits are counted, because on renovation permits the named firm is as often a trade sub or an expediter.

The busiest names on Toronto new-build permits

Most Toronto new-build permits are one-off projects; a handful of builders file repeatedly. Counted over the 12 months to September 23, 2026; company names are shortened from the permit record.

What verified means

Builtie traces each project from the permit to the operating company, matches a person by the employer they declare themselves, and corroborates name, company and location before storing the contact. In Builtie's own checks, 17% of people matched to a construction company by name alone worked somewhere else. A general office line is labelled as one. How the verification works.

Finding the project manager

Permits rarely name the project manager. Identify the builder or general contractor first, then the person who runs projects of that type and size at that firm, and check their current employer on their own profile. How to find construction project manager contacts.

Plans

Builtie's Starter plan is $79 per seat per month (CAD) for 20 projects; Growth is $99 for 50 projects and adds the LinkedIn and email outreach you run yourself. Opening a project spends one credit, and the decision makers, emails, phones and AI call script inside it are included. Your monthly credits reset at each renewal, and extra credit packs are valid for 30 days. The free trial runs 7 days with 10 projects. Custom, where Builtie's team runs the outreach for you, starts from CAD $1,500 a month on top of a Growth seat.

Builtie's deepest coverage is in the Greater Toronto Area, where it started; depth in any city depends on what that municipality publishes. Ask for live sample projects in your own service area before you buy.
