Market Price Increases

Further to our price increase mail in September, we regret to advise that we are still seeing a large number of supplier/manufacturer increases. Once again these are being driven by a variety of reasons such as Brexit, the pandemic, the conflict in Ukraine, and unprecedented demand from China and the USA.

Sandtoft Weinerberger / Starting December 2022
All Clay Tiles -  Average of 18.9% increase
All Concrete Tiles - Average of 17%
All Roof Accessories & Fittings - Average of 15%

Marley / Starting January 2023
All Metric Concrete Interlocking Tiles - Average of 9% increase 
Ludlow Plus & Anglia Concrete Interlocking Tiles - Average of 9% increase
Concrete Plain Tiles - 10% increase
Concrete Fittings - Average of 8.5% increase

BMI Redland / TBC
BMI Redland does not currently have any planned price increases. We anticipate a price increase in Quarter 2 of 2023

It is proving very hard to keep everyone informed and we would strongly recommend that you contact your branch if you are about to quote for work or have outstanding quotes, to be certain that you have the current pricing.

Further to our price increase mail in April we regret to advise that we are still seeing a large number of supplier / manufacturer increases. Once again these are being driven by a variety of reasons such as Brexit, the pandemic, the conflict in Ukraine and unprecedented demand from China and the USA.

The latest includes significant increases of 9.5% to 11.5% depending on the product from BMI Redland for August. Alongside this IKO Asphalt went up 12% in April (Which we deferred) and a further 13% in June, compounded this is a 25% increase. We have no doubt other manufacturers will be following close on their heels.

BMI Redland - August 9.5% - 11.5%

Icopal  -  August 16%

IKO Torch On - August 12%

IKO  Asphalt -  June 25%

Knauf  -  July 35%

Velux  -  July 9%

Please be advised that we are seeing a very large number of supplier/manufacturer product increases, driven by a variety of reasons such as Brexit, the pandemic, and unprecedented demand from China and the USA. 
 
With so many increases it is proving very hard to keep everyone informed and we would strongly recommend that you contact your branch if you are about to quote for work or have outstanding quotes, to be certain that you have the current pricing.

Once again we regret to advise that combinations of Covid, Brexit and Force Majeure have resulted in further supplier increases.  Redland, Marley, Etex and Sandtoft have hit us with increases varying between 4.5% and 9% across their entire product lines. 

Please refresh any outstanding quotes with your local branch to make sure you are not caught out by these sudden and unforeseen increases. 

Please be guided accordingly.
