Residential demolitions (where a custom rebuild follows on the cleared lot), major additions, legal duplex conversions, and commercial alterations are high-ticket GC opportunities tracked the week the city issues the permit. PermitBeat reads every permit Calgary issues and sends the general contractor jobs to one general contractor company in Calgary every Monday at 7am — not a shared dashboard, not a national platform.

Calgary publishes issued building permits through its municipal open-data portal. PermitBeat pulls those records every week, classifies each permit by the trade it creates work for, and emails the general contractor list to one general contractor company in Calgary every Monday at 7am. In the last 90 days that was 2,068 general contractor-relevant permits.
Leads land within about a week of Calgary issuing the permit — early in the project, while the work is still being planned and quoted.
Yes. PermitBeat sells the Calgary, AB general contractor list to exactly one general contractor company. If the territory is taken, new inquiries go on a waitlist.
Property address, plain-language project type, permitted job value where the city publishes it, timing guidance, and a print-ready letter addressed to the property. No homeowner personal information is collected or sold.
The Beat is $149 CAD/month, Beat + Concierge is $249 CAD/month, and each additional territory is $99 CAD/month. No annual contract; the first week's sample is free.
