Every week, Dallas, TX publishes the building permits it issued — every roof, remodel, panel upgrade, and new build, with the address and what the job is. Almost nobody reads them. This post reads them: it is built entirely from the 5,989 permits in our database for Dallas, TX, pulled from the city's own published records for Oct 13, 2026 to Nov 11, 2026. No estimates, no padding — if a number is here, it is counted from those records.
The week in numbers
Dallas, TX issued 5,989 permits in this window. Of those, 15 publish a job value, totaling $34,215,906 in published work. The busiest trade lane was plumbing, and the full top five looks like this:
| Trade | Permits |
|---|---|
| Plumbing | 1,848 |
| Remodel & addition | 1,333 |
| Electrical | 1,214 |
| HVAC | 942 |
| New construction | 722 |
A permit can count toward more than one trade when the work spans trades, so lane counts add up to more than the permit total.
The biggest jobs by published value
These are the largest published job values in the pull. One line in this table is months of work for the right crew — and every contractor in town can see it the week it posts, if they're looking.

Each of those addresses is a real job that was filed this window. The owner or contractor named on the permit is in the public record; the fastest way to the work is to be the first trade to call about it — which is the entire point of reading the board the week permits post instead of hearing about the job after the sub work is awarded.
