Does anyone have any views on the current supply chain issues for materials?
Almost everything is affected. I work in construction and lead ins on anything cement based are hideous. Roof tiles, paving slabs etc, all mega long. Also insulation, metal, glass, skim, resin. Labour is also tight, and rates are sky high now.
Roofing battens have doubled in cost since beginning of the year.
I am sure what ever is currently being built will end up costing more, and take longer.
Thats going to affect housebuilders. Thats why the slide I think.
