Every permitted job on a South Florida home leaves a public record: who did the work, where, what kind, and what it was valued at. Those records sit in county and city systems, in formats no homeowner has time to dig through. Radar reads them, organizes them by company, and hands you the result as one report for your project and your neighborhood.
Residential permit records published by Miami-Dade County and the City of Miami, covering the last 12 months. Business names and license numbers come from the same permit filings — the details companies themselves put on public record.
You pick a trade and a ZIP code. Radar finds every residential permit for that trade in that ZIP code (if fewer than ten companies work in the ZIP itself, it looks a little wider), groups the permits by the company that pulled them, and ranks companies by how many jobs they did. Each listing shows the job count, the typical job size from the values declared on the permits, its most recent job, and its Florida license number.
Reports are free. If you want quotes, contractors from your report can say they want your job, and you pick who may contact you, by name. Contractors pay only when a homeowner picks them, and paying never changes who appears in a report or in what order. In some areas you can pay $9 instead to keep your details private.
Radar is not a review site, and it does not rate workmanship. A permit record proves a job was filed and inspected; it cannot prove the job went well. Radar does not endorse any company, and no company can pay to appear in a report or to rank higher. Before you hire anyone, check their Florida license, get the agreement in writing, and ask for references — our guides walk through each step.
