Why? Delays and Slow Downs

Why? Delays and Slow Downs . . . The word from the log home portion of our construction industry is that suppliers are shorthanded and the cost of materials have gone up, which you probably know. In addition, suppliers have cut back on production due in part to the generous political stimulus money coupled with the higher cost of raw materials.

In our case, we are still turning out customized log home material packages but at a slower pace than normal to keep our workers employed. Some of the materials we provide cost us more while others are just harder to find at this time. 


The bottom line is that we can serve our clients but not as quickly as in the past. Perhaps workers will be encouraged to come back to work but costs are predicted to NOT drop significantly. Waiting to get your log home started in hopes that prices will return to the same pre-covid levels is not predicted to be a successful strategy.
