Building permits are public record. We watch them daily, filter out the noise, and send you the commercial buildouts that will need post-construction cleaning in the next 30–90 days — with the owner and general contractor names attached.
You've maybe heard the trick: get on the job before anyone else knows the space exists. One cleaner put it this way:
"The best commercial cleaning leads are sitting in your city's permit database — and they're free."
The catch? Pulling, filtering, and researching permits every morning is a part-time job. That's why you don't do it. Neither do your competitors.
Lead services sell the same information for $40 a lead, shared with four competitors, three weeks late. By then the property manager already has a cleaner.
Chicago issues ~2,600 building permits a month. We filter them to the ~44/week that matter to commercial cleaning: interior buildouts, tenant improvements, new construction — offices, medical, restaurants, gyms, retail. $25k+ jobs only.
Address, what's being built, reported job value, and who to call — owner and general contractor names straight from the permit record.
The buildout finishes in 30–90 days. Post-construction clean is your foot in the door; the recurring contract is the prize.
