How much crazier can it get in the construction world?

As a Building Owner, what does that question mean to you? Planning on building anything this year?

Since just last week, we are seeing these changes in the roofing market:

· Adhesives with a 30% surcharge added.
· Smaller packaging meaning higher unit costs.
· Freight companies using vans rather than flat beds.
· Freight costs up 100 to 200%

Freight costs are skyrocketing, check it out the next time you’re at the grocery store.

Where are we as an industry, if you’re planning a new roof this year? Think about:
· Long Lead Times
· More Inflation
· Consider hot asphalt for insulation attachment
· Plan ahead

As we’ve discussed several times this month we are seeing disruptions for roofing materials, and it is rapidly gotten much worse.

If you have any questions or any of this resonates with you and you want to learn more, let me know.
