No account, nothing to fill in. Every figure is counted from permits the building departments already publish under your company’s name.
What is on the page
- Your quarter. Every permit the building departments issued with your company on it, by month and by city.
- Your rank. Where you sit among the contractors in your trade in that metro, by permit count.
- Who is on your streets. The companies pulling permits in the same cities you work, and how many each one pulled.
- What you did not get. Permits in your own cities, for your own trade, that went to someone else.
- What the jobs were worth. Your median declared value against the metro's, from the same records.
Where the numbers come from
Building permits are public records. We collect them from the cities’ and counties’ own published feeds every night, keep the residential ones, drop duplicates, and group them by the contractor named on the permit. Nothing here is estimated, bought or inferred — if a figure looks wrong it is because the building department published it that way, and we would like to know.
Corrections, or a page you would rather we did not publish: support@permitdawn.com. We will fix it or take it down.

Want the permits themselves the morning they are issued, rather than a quarter in arrears? That is what we sell.
