Construction Leads in Miami-Dade County

Miami-Dade publishes a contractor name on effectively every permit record, which is the single most useful property a permit feed can have. The coverage is county-wide rather than city-only, so it reaches well beyond Miami itself. Builtie reads that county record as it updates, adds each project’s permit history and likely build stage, scores it for your trade within the municipalities you set as territory, and names a person at the company behind it.

Where Miami-Dade sits

How much is being permitted

Miami-Dade has produced 139,222 permits since January 2024: 20,993 in 2024, 70,921 in 2025 and 47,308 so far in 2026. Counted on September 4, 2026.

What the Miami-Dade record actually carries

The record is the county's permit dataset, which carries a contractor name and an estimated value on each record. Because the county rather than a single city publishes it, one feed covers the municipalities inside it, which is unusual and worth knowing when you set a territory.

What a trade contractor should know about this market

• County-wide coverage in one source. A trade working several municipalities in the county reads one record rather than chasing separate city portals.
• Renovation and rebuild volume is constant. Building stock in this climate is worked on continuously, and the record reflects steady alteration and replacement volume rather than only new starts.
• Contractor names on every row. The permit tells you who is already doing work in the area, which is a directory of active firms as much as a list of projects.
• Set territory carefully. County-wide means a broad feed by default, so narrowing to the municipalities you actually serve matters more here than in a single-city record.

What Builtie carries in Miami-Dade

Miami-Dade carries the permit history rather than a single snapshot, projects scored against your trade and territory, an inferred build stage so you can tell an open package from one awarded months ago, and the people who award the work traced past applicants and numbered companies to a named person with email, phone and LinkedIn where each can be verified.

Who is busiest in each trade

Miami-Dade stamps a trade on each permit, so the firms doing the most work in each one can be counted rather than guessed. These rankings come from the same permit record as the figures above, over the first half of 2026.

• The most active electrical contractors in Miami-Dade
• The most active plumbing contractors in Miami-Dade
• The most active mechanical and HVAC contractors in Miami-Dade
• The most active fire protection contractors in Miami-Dade

Read them as a map of who is active, not as a bid list: a trade permit is issued after the contract has already been awarded.

When your package is bought

The buying window does not move with the city. Concrete and excavation are committed before the site is visibly dug, framing is booked while the foundation cures, roofing and cabinetry are decided during framing, and painting is awarded while drywall goes up. Our guide to when each trade is decided maps all of them against the five build stages.

Builtie plans start at $79 per month per seat for 20 projects a month, and $99 for 50. Growth adds LinkedIn and email outreach you run from the platform; Starter does not include Outreach. Done-for-you — where Builtie's team runs the content, campaigns and replies for you — is the Custom plan. There is a 7-day free trial with 10 projects.

Which plan fits you?

Starter, $79 per seat per month (CAD). 20 matched projects a month, which is $3.95 for a fully worked project — the decision maker, their verified email, phone and LinkedIn, the site context and the opening script all included in the one credit. Credits reset each month, and you can top up with a credit pack any time. Sourcing that by hand runs about twenty minutes a project, so the plan buys back roughly seven hours a month. Pick it if you already have someone sending the messages and what you are short of is a qualified list. It does not include Outreach.

Growth, $99 per seat per month (CAD). Twenty dollars more buys two and a half times the projects — 50 a month, $1.98 each — plus the entire outreach layer: LinkedIn and email sequences, campaigns, the unified inbox, events and social signals. Anyone opening more than 20 projects a month is better off here on volume alone, before counting the ten to fifteen hours a week that automated follow-up gives back. Pick it if someone on your team will log in and run it.

Done-For-You, the Custom plan, from CAD $1,500 a month. Pick it when the honest answer to “who is going to run this?” is nobody. Builtie's team writes the content, runs your LinkedIn, Instagram and email, answers the comments and DMs, builds and manages the campaigns, A/B tests the messaging, analyzes your followers and your competitors, and hands you the conversations. It sits on top of a Growth seat and is quoted against your trade, territory and channels. See everything Done-For-You covers, or compare all three on the pricing page.
