It\u2019s something the lumber industry has dealt with for months.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBack in April we started to see some of our loads were getting delayed\u2026.it was taking about five weeks to get here when it usually takes two,\u201d Scott\u2019s Lumber General Manager Kelly Vis said.<\/p>\n<p>The months-long strain on the lumber supply still has no end in sight.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight now it\u2019s getting worse. We have a lot of supplies of lumber sitting at factories that we can\u2019t get transportation for it,\u201d Vis said.<\/p>\n<p>Scott\u2019s Lumber General Manager Kelly Vis says log supply and production is also adding to the problem. It\u2019s why he\u2019s now buying lumber from at least eight new suppliers, going wherever he can to fill his contracted orders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo far we haven\u2019t had any crews waiting for lumber we haven\u2019t been able to get,\u201d A+ Construction owner Brad Mair said. \u201cPrice is more the problem right now than the supply.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sioux Falls home builders like Brad Mair say local lumber yards have done a great job of finding the supply, but nationwide, prices are skyrocketing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrice on just your normal lumber has jumped around 55 percent but the panel goods like your OSB and plywood that has more than doubled in price,\u201d Vis said.<\/p>\n<p>That increase is just over the past roughly eight weeks. On a $300,000 house, Scott\u2019s Lumber estimates that could mean an increase of up to $15,000 for materials.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost of the lumber yards are honoring what you lock in a house at, unfortunately now those houses that don\u2019t have final pricing yet, those are the ones that will get the biggest sticker shock here when they see the materials item is going to be more than they thought,\u201d Mair said.<\/p>\n<p>But industry experts say don\u2019t let the increased cost of lumber hold you back from building.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith interest rates where they are right now it\u2019s still a really good time to build a house,\u201d Vis said.<\/p>\n<p>Vis says right now the stacks of plywood used by homebuilders are the hardest products to find. Homebuilders are not just dealing with lumber shortages, things like interior doors, door knobs and cabinets are also experiencing delays.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The pandemic has caused supply chain issues for nearly every industry in the USA; from delays in production to transportation, many deliveries are behind schedule.
