Contractor leads from building permits, code violations and public records
Whatever you build or fix, the account that needs it is in the public record first: a permit, a code violation, a managing-agent change, an ownership or registration change. FieldClients reads every source in each market every day and matches each record to the account behind the building. Pick your market, filter the feed to the work you do and spend one credit to reveal the decision-maker and the reason to call. Self-serve from $99 a month.

Why B2B: a homeowner one-off job is a few hundred dollars once. A repeat commercial relationship is recurring work for years. One account pays for a year of the feed.
The contractors signals we watch
Each one is a public, dated event that predicts contractors work, and a documented reason to reach out this week.
Permits across trades
Building, mechanical, plumbing, and electrical permits filed across your service area.
Whatever you install or service, the permit that predicts it is already in the public record.
Code violations
Open violations that name a specific trade problem.
A documented failure the owner must fix, a dated reason to call.
Managing-agent changes
Buildings and portfolios changing management.
New agents rebuild their vendor bench, with no incumbent loyalty to beat.
New building permits
Ground-up projects entering the pipeline.
Every new building needs your trades, at approval, before vendors are chosen.
Ownership & registration changes
Buildings changing hands or re-registering.
Every ownership event restarts the who-do-we-hire question.
New signals, added regularly
We keep wiring in new public data sources. Every new feed is another dated reason to call, live in your market automatically.
See how the machine works →Every source in your market. Filtered to contractors.
We read every public source in each market and match each record to the account behind the building. Each signal is tagged with the trades it predicts, so the contractors filter shows the records that predict contractors work. The markets below list what each one publishes.
New York City
The deepest public record in the country, on one open-data portal refreshed nightly: DOB permits and violations, HPD violations and registrations that name the managing agent, FISP facade filings, certificates of occupancy and ACRIS deeds. Every building can be matched to the company behind it.
Chicago
A strong city portal for permits, violations, 311 and business licences, with the Cook County recorder for deeds. The registration layer is thinner than New York, so matching leans on licences and ownership.
Phoenix
City permits and code cases, and the Maricopa County rental registration that names the owner and agent for every rented property in the county. A strong account layer.
Homeowner leads buy a job. Accounts buy for years.

Contractors questions
I do more than one trade, can you match that?
Yes. Every signal in the feed is tagged with the trades it predicts, and browsing is unlimited, so you can filter to each trade you do in turn. The trade pages explain the records behind each one.
What contacts come with each lead?
Verified decision-maker email on every reveal. Company phone where listed. Each reveal carries the dated signal and the account behind it.
Do my competitors get the same leads?
They can. Every subscriber in a market browses the same public records. What differs is who calls first. Each signal is dated, so you can reach the account the week the record files, with the decision-maker and the reason to call in hand.
How is the feed built for a contractors company?

You pick a market, filter the feed to contractors and browse every signal; browsing is unlimited. When one is worth a call, one credit reveals the decision-maker and the dated reason to call.
