In recent months, the prices of many building materials have risen significantly due to difficulties in supplying raw materials.No major price reductions are currently expected, but prices may rise further.The price of metal and wood goods has already risen, as confirmed by Kelly Juksaar, the marketing director of Decora, a public limited company engaged in the retail sale of construction goods."For example, carcasses, EPS (polystyrene foam, ed.), OSB and wool," he said.According to Juksaar, the reason lies in the availability of some general construction materials and difficulties in the supply of raw materials."For us, the current situation means that suppliers are constantly increasing the purchase price of deficient goods every day," Juksaar explained.As the purchase price has even increased by up to 40 percent in some cases, according to Juksaar, this is reflected in the end consumer price.Adding that the significantly reduced product groups are not mentioned at present.
