For contractors

Turn permits into leads and booked appointments. Win the job before your competitors even know it exists.

Roofers, remodelers, HVAC, and specialty trades use ContraX to find permit-backed prospects, prioritize outreach, and book more estimates.

01

Catch jobs first

New permits hit your zips as they file — often days before job boards or referrals — so your team reaches homeowners and GCs first.

02

Prioritize who to call

Lead Finder scores every property by project type, roof age, permit value, and opportunity so reps work the highest-intent list first.

03

Fill your calendar

Export scored lead lists, set territory alerts, and run focused outreach to book more estimates, site visits, and signed jobs.

04

Grow where work is hot

Hot Markets and zip analytics show which neighborhoods are accelerating — deploy crews and sales where permit demand is rising.

Cape Coral, FL · Residential Roofing

Q2 2026ZIP 33991 & 33993Meta Brand Awareness

The Challenge

Roman Roofing needed to grow market share in Cape Coral without increasing their overall marketing budget. The question wasn't how to spend more — it was where to spend smarter.

What ContraX Found

  • ZIP 33991 & 33993: strong permit activity with manageable competition
  • 58 roofing permits · 11 active competitors · $1.15M in permit value
  • Roman already had a foothold — with room to grow
  • Zero residential reroofs sold in 33991 in the prior 3 months
“The campaign worked because we spent money more intelligently — not more of it. ContraX told us exactly where demand existed and where competition was still beatable.”
