On October 9, 2026, 27 permitted projects in the City of Red Deer were still at the point where finish carpentry is awarded.

| Measure | Red Deer |

44% of them are new buildings and 56% 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 22% 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. Red Deer ranks 24 of 25 markets Builtie covers for finish carpentry, behind North Little Rock (34 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.
