On October 9, 2026, 3,514 permitted projects in Miami-Dade County were still at the point where finish carpentry is awarded.

58% of them are new buildings and 42% are renovations, additions or alterations: a mix of ground-up builds, where the builder decides, and renovations, where the owner or designer often does. Only 10% were permitted in the last 90 days, and that is expected: finish carpentry is bought late, so a project permitted a year ago is only now reaching the stage where the finish carpentry contract is decided. Miami-Dade ranks 3 of 25 markets Builtie covers for finish carpentry, behind Austin (7,470 projects).
A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when finish carpentry is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $4k of finish carpentry work. Trade sub-permits are grouped into their parent project, so this is a count of projects, not permits.

What the Miami-Dade data covers
The feed is Miami-Dade County's permit system. About four in five permits are for unincorporated Miami-Dade; the rest span more than 30 municipalities, including the City of Miami, Coral Gables, Hialeah and Doral. Cities with their own building departments, such as Miami Beach, route only some permits through the county, so their coverage is partial.
If you work from Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood and Pembroke Pines in Broward County, Builtie shows you this feed as your nearest covered market; those cities' own permits are not in the count above.
