(e.g. tendering 'today' vs tendering 'last year', everything else being equal) And are there any outliers? E.g. "wood went up 300%, while the rest of the prices are only 5% more"? You’re actually spot on. Timber and engineered wood did go up 300%. OSB was 75% metalwork was 25% mineral wool and other insulations about 22-35% It’s still going up but slowing down for now. Expected to rise again in the next quarter of the year. Depending on where you buy your materials from, some companies have absorbed the costs somewhat and honoured quotes.

June 2, 20224 yr Author FWIW my QS recons that the finalfinal tender quotes will come in today (Jun 2022) somewhere between 10 and 20% more compared to Jan 2021. I guess we should've tendered back then rather than now..
