There are deffo shortages on some building materials.
We completed the refurbishment of our bedroom and en-suite recently. The plasterer had trouble getting hold of plasterboard and plaster. We had to choose a less plush carpet as the one we preferred was a special order from the factory with months of waiting time.
Even paint was a struggle, but luckily we had bought it all 2 years earlier when B and Q had a silly offer on.
Similarly the bathroom suite, but I had ordered that 2 + years ago, again when prices were lowest. Saved £459 on the usual prices between a loo, shower tray and enclosure, thermostatic shower, and ladder rad.
