Tile Construction Leads in Miami-Dade (2026): 3,615 Projects in the Award Window

To find tile construction leads in Miami-Dade, work from building permits and time the call to the build stage. On October 9, 2026, 3,615 permitted projects in Miami-Dade County were still at the point where tile is awarded. The builder or general contractor awards tile around drywall; on custom and higher-end work the designer or owner chooses the product first. 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.

59% of them are new buildings and 41% are renovations, additions or alterations: a mix of ground-up builds, where the builder decides, and renovations, where the owner or designer often does. 608 of them (17%) were permitted in the last 90 days. Miami-Dade ranks 3 of 25 markets Builtie covers for tile, behind Austin (7,532 projects).
A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when tile is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $4k of tile 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.
