Calgary publishes issued permits every week with the estimated project cost, the community and the contractor where one is named. Descriptions are short, so new builds, renovations, HVAC, decks and garages show up best.
We read every new permit and tag it by the work it describes, so a renovation list has interior alterations, kitchens, basements, additions, underpinning and secondary suites. Revisions to older permits and repeat sub-permits for the same project are dropped, so each job appears once.
Most of this period's permits were in Mahogany, Livingston, Beltline, Pine Creek, Rangeview, Cornerstone.
Most renovators and general contractors call or email the contractor named on the permit, or knock on the door at the address, in the first week, before the work is tendered out. Calling a business named on a public permit is normal business development; follow Canada's anti-spam law (CASL) before sending commercial email.
Every plan starts with 7 days free. Prices in Canadian dollars.
One city, one trade.
For crews working across a region.
The City of Calgary's official open data, published under its open government licence. We are not affiliated with the city.
