Increasing Construction Costs Got You Down?

May 14, 2008

Rising material prices. Skilled labour shortages.
High oil, transportation, and equipment costs. Over budget.

These are the buzzwords on everybody’s lips these days, and seem to be prominently placed in the headlines of periodicals that deal with construction. No doubt, the current costs of doing any type of construction today have soared, particularly in the west, placing numerous projects either “on hold” or, even worse, “cancelled.” Realizing that, for some people, building costs have become too high and are out of reach, Colony has been working with its various supplier partners to come up with more-economical structures capable of meeting tighter budgets while still maintaining high performance levels for clear spans, energy efficiency, code compliance, security, weather-tightness, and appearance. We currently have available to us a few new products that will meet these demands, about which you will be hearing more in the next few newsletter releases. This is just one more way that Colony is working toward having the ultimate ability to service all of your building needs. Please contact our offices for any further details or if you have any questions in this regard.
