PermitsByBadaChicago electrical permits, every morning
We watch the City of Chicago's public permit feed every morning, keep only electrical and hand you a clean list: address, issue date, permit type, what the work is, declared value, and the contractor of record as the city published it. CSV and a web dashboard, with a digest email each morning.
Who buys it: Electrical distributors, panel and EV charger suppliers, solar installers, and electrical subcontractors.
Why not just use the city portal?
You can. The portal is free, and it is where our data comes from: public records, published by the City of Chicago. What we add is the work of reading it for you.
The Chicago portal
- 691 permits in the last 7 days, every trade in one table.
- You have to remember to open it. It does not email you.
- The trade is something you work out for yourself from each permit type and description.
Chicago electrical permits, every morning
- 97 electrical permits in the last 7 days, 14% of the Chicago total.
- 100% name a contractor.
- 6% show electrical only in the description text. A search on the permit type alone would miss them. Our classifier reads every description.
- A CSV, a web dashboard and a digest email every morning.
Counts are permits issued in the last 7 days, from public records published by the City of Chicago. Updated 2026-10-22.

Know before you buy
- The city can correct or change a permit after it is issued. We show the record as it was when we collected it.
- The Chicago dataset carries no contractor licence number, so the licence column is empty for this product.
- The Chicago dataset has no ZIP column, so ZIP can be blank on some rows.
- Chicago lists contractors in several slots on a permit. We keep contractor businesses and drop owner, tenant and applicant slots, so a few permits show no contractor.
- Chicago has no trade field. We assign the trade with fixed keyword rules on the work description, so some permits can be filed under the wrong trade or missed.
