Minneapolis has 2,098 new permits filed in the last 30 days across 2,959 total permits on file. Plumbing dominates the market with 1,121 permits, followed by HVAC work with 860 permits. This volume means steady work for contractors willing to monitor the data and move fast on new filings. Permit activity is distributed across multiple zip codes throughout Minneapolis, so opportunities exist in both residential and commercial areas. HVAC and plumbing contractors have the most consistent lead flow, but roofing and renovation permits are also significant with 301 and 278 permits respectively. Knowing where permits cluster helps you focus on neighborhoods where you already have crews or relationships. The average permit value in Minneapolis is $98,574, which means most jobs justify the time it takes to bid properly. Contractors who respond to new permits within 24-48 hours win more work because property owners and GCs are still evaluating their options. Building permits are public record, and staying current on filings gives you a direct line to decision-makers before your competitors even know the job exists. DigPermit updates Minneapolis permit data daily from public records. When you monitor new filings regularly, you capture leads at the moment owners are ready to move forward. The contractors who build this into their daily routine consistently outbid those who rely on word-of-mouth or old lead sources.

Monitor new building permits daily. Minneapolis files about 70 permits per day on average, and property owners typically contact contractors within days of filing. Set up alerts for your trade (plumbing, HVAC, roofing, etc.) and your target zip codes. Call or email permit contacts the same day you see a filing. Contractors who respond within 24 hours get more bids in front of decision-makers before the field gets crowded.
Plumbing leads by a wide margin with 1,121 permits on file. HVAC is second with 860 permits. Roofing has 301 permits, renovation has 278 permits, and other work makes up 321 permits. If you're a plumber or HVAC contractor, Minneapolis has enough volume to support a dedicated lead-chasing operation. If you do roofing or general renovation, permits are still regular enough to justify monitoring, especially if you focus on high-activity zip codes.
Permits are spread across multiple zip codes throughout Minneapolis rather than concentrated in one or two areas. This means you can find work in your preferred neighborhoods instead of competing only in a single hot market. Review permit data by zip code to identify which areas align with your service area or where you want to build more work.
The average permit value in Minneapolis is $98,574. That's substantial enough that a single permit can support a crew for weeks. Even if your close rate is only 20 percent, chasing permits regularly puts real money on your books. At this value, spending time to write a solid bid and follow up with the permit holder pays for itself quickly.
Permit data is updated daily from public records. New permits typically appear in the system within one business day of filing. The first 24-48 hours after a permit is filed are when you have the best chance of connecting with the property owner or general contractor before they've already selected their subs. Check new filings every morning to stay ahead of the competition.
