America's #1 Hail Market
Track building permits, monitor market trends, and identify opportunities across the DFW Metroplex area, powered by real U.S. Census Building Permits Survey data.
Across the 4 DFW Metroplex counties PermitMap tracks, builders authorized 4,637 residential building permits in April 2026 (U.S. Census Building Permits Survey), led by Tarrant County (1,425). Dallas County posted the largest month-over-month gain at +81.1%.
DFW is widely regarded as the nation's top hail market and the fastest-growing major Texas metro. Collin County leads suburban growth through Frisco, McKinney, and Allen, while Tarrant County adds commercial expansion. Spring hail season concentrates roofing and restoration activity, and new master-planned communities north of Dallas sustain residential permits.
For contractors working DFW Metroplex, the practical play is the same each week: open PermitMap, filter the metro's permits to your trade, sort by valuation, and reach the highest-value owners during the two-to-four-week window before work begins — turning the trend above into a routed call list instead of a guess.
