Construction Site Security Construction Leads in San Antonio (2026): 518 Projects in the Award Window

To find site security construction leads in San Antonio, work from building permits and time the call to the build stage. On October 9, 2026, 518 permitted projects in the City of San Antonio were still at the point where site security is awarded. The general contractor or developer buys site security as part of mobilization: fencing, cameras, guards and access control come out of the site setup budget, and lenders or insurers often require them. 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.

| Measure | San Antonio |
|---|---|
| Projects in the site security award window | 518 |
| New buildings / renovations and alterations | 518 / 0 |

Only new construction is counted for site security, because renovations rarely need it. 182 of them (35%) were permitted in the last 90 days. San Antonio ranks 5 of 25 markets Builtie covers for site security, behind Calgary (863 projects).
A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when site security is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $10k of site security work. Trade sub-permits are grouped into their parent project, so this is a count of projects, not permits.

What the San Antonio data covers
The data is San Antonio's own building permits. Neighbouring cities issue their own permits and are not in this count. The permit names a contact person; Builtie resolves the company behind it before a project is shown.
If you work from New Braunfels, Schertz, Boerne and the rest of Bexar County, Builtie shows you this feed as your nearest covered market; those cities' own permits are not in the count above.
