Jess-- Posted September 8, 2021 Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 I suspect the biggest delay is just not being able to get the steel (which has probably delayed a build or two before yours). we've just ordered some steel sheet (only corrugated roofing) from our usual suppliers, normally we would expect delivery in 8-10 days with everything rolled, cut, shaped & coated to our specification, this time it will be a minimum of 6-8 weeks. They usually get their steel from Tata but they closed their order books in april and have not re-opened them so they are having to get their stock from Italy & South Korea. the shipment our job will be made from is already over a month overdue.

This is from banks to shops and courier companies. Its also proven very handy for companies that give poor service any way regardless of the existence of covid 19. If something goes wrong they can just trot out 'sorry its covid related' and expect people just to accept it. And there you have the problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
