New Construction Projects for Finish Carpenters: 16,407 New Buildings Open
On October 9, 2026, 16,407 new buildings across 25 markets were still at the stage where finish carpentry is awarded, led by Austin with 4,618. New buildings come from builders that build again, which makes each one a client, not just a job. That is the job Builtie automates: permit-sourced projects timed to the trade's award window, the builder behind each one, and outreach that runs every day.
The same four steps, whether the buyer is a builder, a designer, an owner or a company you want to acquire.
