- 696 installers ranked by permits pulled

The moment
In South Florida's hurricane zone, every roof covering, window, door and shutter needs a permit, and the permit names the installer and its license. Bigger buildings buy the whole envelope as a package, with the contractor named on the master permit.
The Wind Tunnel tracks those permits in Miami-Dade and gives a manufacturer two lists: the properties buying an envelope, and the installers ranked by how many roof, window, door and shutter permits they pulled.
Who it's for
- Impact window and door manufacturers and their dealers
- Roofing-material distributors and makers
- Hurricane shutter and storm-panel fabricators
- Garage-door and entry-door manufacturers
- Glass, glazing and storefront suppliers
- Sealant, coating, stucco and waterproofing lines
- Fastener, anchor and flashing suppliers
What you get
- Private commercial and multifamily properties of $100,000 or more, one value per property
- The contractor and license on the master permit, and the trades already pulled under it
- Every roofing, window, door, shutter and glass installer with two or more permits, ranked by permits pulled
- Public bodies, national installers and single-family homes set aside
- A grade on every property and every installer
The outcome
Your dealer team knows which installers pulled the most envelope permits this quarter, and they're the first calls. Your project team sees the buildings buying a full envelope while the spec is still open.
Questions buyers ask
- How are installers ranked?
- By the number of roof, window, door, shutter and glass permits they pulled in the window. It's a count off the record, not a review of anyone's work.
- Why are homes left off the property list?
- Single-family homes count in the total, but they don't go on the property list. That list is commercial and apartment buildings of $100,000 or more, where an envelope order is worth a project team's time. Homes still show up through the installers who work on them.
- Does it work outside Miami-Dade?
- The count on this page is Miami-Dade. Tell us the coastal counties you sell into and a Signal Sample shows you what's on file there.
