When concrete gets bought
Concrete is one of the first things bought. Footings and slabs go in right after the building permit and the construction start, and on a tower the deck pours follow floor by floor.
On 62 Miami jobs we measured, the concrete permit landed a median 158 days after the first building permit, and three in four had it by day 504.
New building permits and construction starts. The GC on the job buys the concrete or hires the sub who does.

- When does a GC buy concrete on a job?

- How do I find out which sub won the job in Philadelphia?
- Philadelphia publishes trade permits, and each one names the sub who pulled it. Radar shows them the day they file, so you can call the sub who now buys the concrete.
- Where does this count come from?
- Groundbreak reads building and zoning permits naming the contractor and owner, subs on trade permits, permit applications months before the permit, Zoning Board appeals, certificates of occupancy, county plan reviews in Delaware and Chester, Montgomery and Delaware County deeds with both parties, Delaware County mortgages with the lender, City deeds and mortgages through August 2026, notices of commencement and furnishing, state grants, air permits and road lettings and FAA height filings in Philadelphia every day and groups them into projects. This page counts the projects at the stages a supplier watches, the same count sign-up shows for the same picks. It was computed Nov 11, 2026, 3:39 AM Eastern and updates daily.
