What a closed permit can tell you
Toronto states that property owners are required to schedule a final inspection upon completion of their project to close a permit. A recorded closure can therefore help a provider identify a project entering a different service phase, while still leaving the exact work completed and next steps to be confirmed separately.
How to use after-build timing responsibly
A simple service-fit review keeps the signal useful.
- Confirm that the recorded project category relates to your after-build service.
- Use the closure date as timing context, not a guarantee of immediate need.
- Keep saved projects and route planning inside your private workspace.
- Make only responsible, lawful follow-up decisions outside the platform.
Why the distinction matters
A City status record is public project context. It does not contain homeowner contact permission or create an entitlement to outreach. Trade Radar’s green After-build lane is designed to help service providers organize that context without overstating what it means.
