Building projects hit by lack of supplies and price rises

BBC News By Simon Read image copyrightGetty Images Building materials are running short in the UK, leaving DIY projects in doubt and building companies under pressure. The Construction Leadership Council has warned that cement, some electrical components, timber, steel and paints are all in short supply. It blamed unprecedented levels of demand that are set to continue. The Federation of Master Builders said that some building firms may have to delay projects and others could be forced to close as a result. Small, local builders are being hit hardest by material shortages and price rises, said chief executive Brian Berry.

Supply shortage of cement, timber, steel and paint puts building and DIY jobs on hold

Building and DIY projects are being put on hold because of a supply shortage of cement, timber, steel and paint while homeowners face a major rise in the cost of renovation projects due to skyrocketing demand. The Office for National Statistics has projected an increase of up to eight per cent in material prices, as shortages of vital construction materials post-lockdown mean that the industry its biggest price surge in two decades. For instance, the price of timber has risen by more than 400 per cent over the last year, with copper nearly doubling in price during the same period. Shipping costs have also increased sharply due to a shortage of empty containers from Covid-related issues and the recovery in global demand post-pandemic.
