Flooring and tile aren't permitted in Austin, so the installer is never on file. Fortific finds every new home, addition and interior remodel the city issued this week and hands you the builder's name and number while selections are still open.

Interior remodel and roof extension to main house with partial demolition.
Builders lock flooring and tile allowances early. If you meet them at drywall, the material is already ordered from someone else.
Walk-ins and homeowner leads come in waves. Builder work keeps installers busy every week.
There aren't any. The jobs exist inside building and remodel permits, and finding them means reading every one.
Interior remodels that mention a kitchen, bath, shower or full renovation are the ones with tile. We skip exterior-only work.
You see the job the morning after the city issues it, while the builder is still pricing finishes.
Each lead has the job value when the city records it, so you know a $90k bath remodel from a $900k custom home before you call.

They're one trade on Fortific, because builders usually buy them together. For remodels we only send jobs whose description points to interior work, so you won't get a roof or a fence.
The permits are public, so anyone could read them. Fortific just reads all of them for you before 7am. In practice, the installer who calls the builder first, with a price, gets the meeting.
Yes. Both plans let you set a minimum job value, so you can skip small bathroom refreshes and only see bigger jobs.
Every lead comes straight from a permit the city issued, checked against every sub-permit on the same job, so we know who's already named. The "why" line tells you exactly which rule made it a lead. The job value and contractor phone are whatever the city recorded; when the city left them blank, so do we.
No phone numbers. Most leads are the contractor running the job, with their phone when the city lists it, which is most of the time. For work that follows a job, like a fence after a new pool, you get the owner of record and their mailing address from the Travis Central Appraisal District's public tax roll, ready for a mailer, plus whether they live there and when they bought. Owners who've had the appraisal district keep their records confidential are never included.
Most lists sort permits by the trade on the permit, so a roofer gets a list of roofs other roofers already sold. We sort by the trades the job still needs. We check every sub-permit filed for the job so we never send you one where your trade is already named, and every lead says in one line why it's yours.
Yes. Building permits and the appraisal roll are public records, and calling a contractor about work on their job is ordinary business. Owner records are for mail outreach only, which you agree to in our terms, and we remove any owner who asks. You're responsible for following do-not-call and anti-solicitation rules where they apply.
